Room 406, afternoon

Cuddled up under a blanket, Isabel was alternating between doing her reading for tomorrow's Villian's class and thinking over the last two days. Between talking to Anders and the trip into Special Collections with Dawn, the day had passed quickly. And the evening's trip to Caritas had been informative as well. She understood Rose's unwillingness to tell her too much, but that didn't mean she wouldn't ask more questions at another time.

The door was open.

"I'll believe it when I see it." Parker took a sip of her drink. "So, anyway. Space. I'll bring you back a souvenir. And hopefully not get hurt at any point." She reached over and stroked Annie's fur. "And maybe River will quit having nightmares, if we do this, successful or not."

"I hope so. I don't know her that well, but I wouldn't wish nightmares on anyone." Stretching, Isabel eyed Parker. "So what you you discussing so intently with Mr. Winchester yesterday? Neither one of you looked happy."

Parker flushed suddenly, keeping her eyes on the kitten. "Curses. I wanted to know if you could tell when someone's cast them." She tapped a finger against her Coke can. "And how high a price there was for casting one."

"Why? What are you planning?" she asked warily. "Because I can't see how it would be worth it."

[identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"I wasn't planning anything. I just wanted to know." She sighed. "It's moot anyway, I suck at magic, and I have Logan as a bad example. I just wish there were a simple way--" Parker looked away. "To wish something. 'Let them get what they deserve.' That kind of thing."

"Yes Logan does stand as an example of what not to do," Isabel agreed. "I kind of believe in karma. So I really do think everyone that deserves it will get what's coming to them. Eventually. It just might take awhile. And doing anything to speed things up has a nasty habit of coming back and biting you on the ass."

"I know, I know...." Parker looked tired. "I just-- there's a lot I still have to do. It gets overwhelming, sometimes."

"No, I guess I can understand that. But think of it this way, when it's over and done with, you'll know you did it yourself."

Parker hid her face behind her hair, bending to pat Annie. Isabel didn't know. Couldn't know. "True." Her voice was steady. "No questions. No worries. No prices I don't expect." She let out a slow breath. "Justice and then it's over." She looked up and smiled. "I had to ask, though."

"No, I can understand," Isabel nodded, reaching for more chocolate. "If you knew what I wished on Tess..."

Parker nodded quietly, then said, "Here's hoping she stays on Antar until you can take a garrison to arrest her. Nothing new from her, lately? Or from Lonnie? No news from Max?"

[identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nope, all quiet on the home front," she said with a wry smile. "Which of course makes me wonder what they're really up to. But the latest email from Max just talked about what he and Liz have been doing. I haven't deleted it yet. I read it when I can't sleep and then I'm out cold."

Parker snickered. "Ah, still as scintillating as ever. Good." She finished her drink, and sighed. "Things still good with you and Greg?"

[identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah," Isabel smiled. "He's around. Glad to be solid again of course. I actually need to get into town and find him something for Valentine's Day."

"I still owe you as many drinks as you want at Caritas for helping with that. Or as much chocolate as you can eat." Parker's smile brightened. "I'm glad things are going good for you. Minimal angst in our lives is a goal."

[identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes. So you'll need to stay out of trouble on your trip so we can keep it that way."

Waving a nonchalant hand, Parker got to her feet. "No worries. Everyone comes back in one piece, or I demand a refund on our tour package." She grinned, and patted Annie on the head. "Have a good weekend. I'll stop by as soon as I'm back, okay?"

"Yes. I'd rather have that then the chocolate you mentioned before," she nodded. "Be safe."
