GK was nervous. They had of brushed against the subject before, but now...well, he didn't want to wait anymore. "So, Eli.... are you okay with getting lunch with Zoe?"

	"Put 'em on hold until after lunch," Zoe said, unsuccessfully hiding a smile. At least this guy had a sense of humor. Weird one, but it was there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	GK holds his menu in the best attempt at a minor pseudo-hemph he can manage. "Yes. Let's. I'm getting the chicken. What about you two?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	One tends to need a sense of humor of some sort, generally black and morbid to survive where he's survived. Eli glances at the menu. "Fish sandwich, with potato salad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Burger and fries." Zoe went for the basics in diner food. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And once the waitress takes those orders, it doesn't take long at all. "How's your mom doing, Zoe?" GK asked politely. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"She's wondering when her closet makeover is going to happen. All of a sudden I hear that she doesn't have a thing to wear when she's going out with Jed, and she doesn't even see him all that often." Zoe might've sounded a little exasperated, but Mom happy was what she wanted. Happy and not so focused on what her only daughter might or might not be doing with her free time. "AND she's applied for a passport."

	"Why does she need a passport?" Eli asks. He knows zip about Zoe and her family problems. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

" 'Cause my Uncle Jed wants to take her to Canada. And Europe. And New Zealand. And pretty much everywhere." GK smiled. "That's great. And I'll totally see about that clothes part."

GK leans his face against his hand, which is already wet from the condensation of his glass. He notices the makeup he puts over his scar coming off and frowns.
"I've gotta take a powder," he says. "Literally. Excuse me." And off he goes for a minute.

	"His uncle Jed and my mom hit it off and are kind of seeing each other," Zoe explained to Eli as GK left the table. "As long as Jed is nice to her, I'm okay with it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-05 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Eli does the obligatory eyebrow waggle and grins. "That's cool. A bit weird, but cool I guess. It'd probably be weirder if it was one of GK's parents." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	zoe_torres 2011-08-06 12:27 am UTC (link)
	"I guess. I'd hate to shoot Jed now since Mom likes him. I haven't met GK's mom yet, but he says good things about her." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-08 02:12 am UTC (link)
	"How did you meet GK, by the way?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	zoe_torres 2011-08-08 02:38 am UTC (link)
	"He was limping through the Triangle in the middle of the night. I thought I'd be helpful and get him out before he became gang bait. I didn't know he like to beat things with a stick then, or that he was a he." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-08-08 02:57 am UTC (link)
	And GK comes back just in time to catch the edge of conversation about the swordstick that he's always tried to give Eli the impression that he only very rarely uses to beat anyone up. Zombie incidents, sure. Practice, of course. Not 'Most nights while Eli is asleep.' (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-16 03:33 pm UTC (link)
	Cheerfully, Eli says. "Well, if he likes beating things with a stick..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-08-16 04:38 pm UTC (link)
	"Eli, for the love of every conceivable deity, including the ones you don't personally like, let's not continue this conversation right now." He blushes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-16 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	The look that Eli gives GK could conceivably be called angelic. Possibly. Maybe. If you squinted at it funny. And twisted your head around. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	zoe_torres 2011-08-16 11:37 pm UTC (link)
	Zoe rolled her eyes while they made eyes at each other. "Yeah. Anyway, that's how we met. We've been beating things up ever since." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-08-16 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	"She's superb at it," GK swiftly shifts the subject. "Seriously. She could take down an army of Phillistines with enough rocks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-17 01:26 am UTC (link)
	He will allow the change of subject... for now. "Do you have any special powers, or do you just hit people?" he asks Zoe. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	zoe_torres 2011-08-17 01:33 am UTC (link)
	"Not just people, and no fancy powers. I have an eye for targets." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	veryperceptive 2011-08-17 01:36 am UTC (link)
	GK just nods. "Really good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	half_angel_eli 2011-08-17 02:18 am UTC (link)
	"Like Batman then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	zoe_torres 2011-08-17 02:23 am UTC (link)
	"Batman is a cape, just like all the others." Zoe reminded herself that this was important to GK and the guy was probably a psycho. "Capes ignore the Triangle. They go where the media is, where the rich people are, and forget the places and people that really need help." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
