Another Homecoming
Cait was enjoying her time living at her grandfather's cottage with Ty. The two of them were left alone for the most part save for the occasional visit by one of the townspeople who knew her grandfather and were just checking on her. They said Arthur Sr. would want them to check on his granddaughter.

Life quickly settled into a routine and Cait was happy. There was peace, quiet, Ty and no sign of Arthur. Life was good, but there was one thing nagging at Cait. She had been reunited with her Atlantean family, but there was one family she had yet to be reunited with. They were three thousand miles away, but it wasn't far for Ty.

Cait came down out of the lighthouse and went looking for Ty.

	These days, Ty is remarkably easy to find. Not that their link allows it to ever be that tricky. He's set himself up a workshop, and has been quietly working on the curved time equations and how they relate to stabilization of warp theory. Its nice and quiet, and difficult enough to take his mind away from the other problems in the world. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Cait paused in the doorway to watch him work for a few moments. She smiled as she watched him. She loved him so much and sent that through the link they shared. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The work is slow, lots of dead ends, false conclusions, false positives - but its a quiet challenge. Its also easily left where it is, the past will still be there later. Hello, love. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-11 04:04 am UTC (link)
	"Hello, my love. I came to see if you would be up to visiting the Titans. I have family I have not yet be reunited with." There was also the desire to have pizza. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-04-11 04:55 am UTC (link)
	I think so, yes. There'll probably be some work to do anyway. And I could use some things from my old lab. Which he destroyed, but the ruins will make reconstruction easier than transmuting it from nothing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Let's go then," she said and held out her hand to him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The trip is short by teleport, since he knows Cait prefers that to flying, if not by a lot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-11 03:02 pm UTC (link)
	It was better than flying and it was still a good reason to be close to Ty. Cait held on tight as he teleported them to Titans Tower. They arrived just outside of Titans Tower. Cait kissed his cheek. "Thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-04-11 03:05 pm UTC (link)
	Of course, love. I'm going to pop up to the lab. Now that I'm here, its going to bug me if I don't tidy up a little. Reminders and all. You be social, and I'll look in on you. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-11 03:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Go have fun," she said and kissed him. "I'll visit with the others. Love you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ty disappears in a flash of violet light to go start transmuting his lab and books back together. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Cait didn't just walk into the Titans Tower. That would just be rude. Instead she went to the front door and rang the bell. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-11 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	"I'll get it!" Iris opened the door. "Cait, hi!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-11 04:45 pm UTC (link)
	"Iris!" Cait smiled and hugged her best friend. "Up for some company? Ty's here too, but he's already in his lab." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-11 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	"Sure!" Iris smiled, returning the hug. "Come on in!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-11 11:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Thank you," Cait said and stepped through the door. "It feels like I've been away from this place for forever. How are you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 01:07 am UTC (link)
	"I'm okay. How are you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm glad to be alive and happy to come visit. How are the others? Everyone okay?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 01:36 am UTC (link)
	"Everyone's good," Iris said. "We got a new member. Jon's sister, Jo." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-12 01:38 am UTC (link)
	"It's good to hear that. Oh neat. Maybe I'll get to meet her while I'm here." Cait was quiet for a moment. "Arthur didn't show up here, did he?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 02:33 am UTC (link)
	"No, he didn't." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-12 02:35 am UTC (link)
	"That's good. I was afraid he would show up here looking for me. I ran away from Atlantis when he said that Cerdian and I were to marry." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-12 02:36 am UTC (link)
	After making sure everything was cleaned up from earlier, Jo arrives and sees the new visitor. "Oh, hi! I'm Supergirl. Or Jo." she says, offering a hand to shake. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-12 02:38 am UTC (link)
	"Cait Curry," Cait said and took the offered hand to shake it. "Aquagirl," she added as an afterthought. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 02:42 am UTC (link)
	Iris didn't notice Jo. Her brain was too busy being broken from Cait's last comment. "WHAT?!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-12 02:46 am UTC (link)
	"I totally missed whatever just happened, didn't I?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-12 02:48 am UTC (link)
	"You did," Cait said. "Arthur and Garth got pressured from the council that I need to marry and produce an heir to ensure the succession. They thought it should be Cerdian. I said no and left Atlantis." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 03:03 am UTC (link)
	"I was going to marry Cerdian when I was four. My inner child's dreams are crushed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-12 03:08 am UTC (link)
	"Oh, that sucks, Iris. Um...do you still have a crush on him?" Jo asks. She looks to Cait. "Your dad was going to force you to marry this Cerdian-guy? Do you get along with him?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-12 03:11 am UTC (link)
	"It's Atlantean politics," Cait explained. "Cerdian is my oldest and one of my closest friends. I've known him since I was born. He's like a brother to me and I don't love him that way. I'm in love with someone else. Arthur doesn't approve of Ty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-12 03:38 am UTC (link)
	"No," Iris said, turning a little pink. "I was four." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Politics can be very annoying," Jarrod says walking into the room, "It's why my grandmother banned it from being talked about at family get togethers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-13 08:20 am UTC (link)
	Jo waves at Jarrod and smiles. "Yeah, talking politics is a quick way to lose friends; I usually don't." Jo says. "Did Ty do something to make your dad angry or is just the normal 'No one is good enough for my little girl' thing?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-13 07:36 pm UTC (link)
	"The latter," Cait said. "Arthur doesn't like the idea of me with a boy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-14 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Cait's dad...is cranky." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-15 01:38 am UTC (link)
	"Still, that's pretty messed up to try forcing you to marry a friend that you're not interested in." Jo says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2011-04-15 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	"It seems a little dark-ages too, the whole arranged marriage thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-15 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	"Atlantis isn't exactly up to date on some things," Cait said. "It doesn't matter. I left Atlantis and it's behind me. Let's not think of such things. I came here to see friends and catch up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	becauseshutup 2011-04-15 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	Things are never as far behind us as we would like, Jarrod thought to himself. "What is there that you would like to get caught up on that you haven't been already," Jarrod asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	maidofmight 2011-04-16 04:17 am UTC (link)
	Jo takes that as her cue to shut her mouth on the whole marriage thing. She was just glad that her parents were reasonable. "Anyone see any good movies lately?" she asks helpfully. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-04-24 12:14 am UTC (link)
	"Not me," Cait said. "Being dead does kind of curtail movie watching. Though I'll gladly take some recommendations." (Reply to this)(Parent)
