Moving Meditation (open)
Anya wasn't hiding, but she wasn't exactly making an effort to be social. Since Sarah and Rose left she didn't feel like interacting with people. There had been one exception, but outside of spending a night with Iason, she didn't see much of anyone.

School was officially over as of today. Graduation ceremonies were earlier this evening and now that she didn't have to study or do any more school work, she was free to work and to work on projects. Which was exactly what she was doing now.

Her latest project started when she had taken a quick trip out to the Hydrobase a few days ago to get a few parts out of storage. The place hadn't been used as a base in years and had only been used for storage. Once she was there she started poking around, an idea formed in her mind. She looked around and decided that she could definitely use it as a private lab. She should ask her father, but why ask permission when you can ask forgiveness?

So she started working. Cleaning was the first order of business. The place had a layer of dust almost inch thick. It was hard work and very dirty, but she had managed to get most of the base cleaned out. The next order of business had been moving the items in storage out of the way. That required use of her suit.

Once that was done, the fun stuff started. Working on the computer systems. The hardware was outdated and the software...gods. Some of the computers were running Windows 3.11 for Workgroups. Anya almost cried.

Tonight she packed a cooler of food and set off for the Hydrobase.

She was planning on holing up here for a few days. She let Jarvis know where she was going to be and sent a text to her parents. She planned on working on upgrading the computer hardware for the next few days. The software would be next. Music blared as she pulled out circuit boards and replaced them with new ones.

Toni let off a puff of breath after being released from the hug. "Hey, I'd never have managed it without you. Don't know how I'm going to get through my senior year without your help."

"Thanks," she told Iason.

"What do you mean without my help? I'm not going anywhere. Dad has agreed to let me commute via suit." She grinned. "You can't get rid of me that easily. Now maybe your dad will forgive me for all the times I've gotten you into trouble."

"That would help a great deal," she told Iason. "I have yet to find the scuba gear and just haven't had the time to check it all out."

"But first you two need to have something to eat with me. Then we can get to work."

"Sure, want me to do the cooking? I trust there's supplies on hand. Why all the work on this place, anyway?"

"He did? That is awesome, girl," Toni said. She laughed as well. "Not that many."

She smiled. "Sounds like a plan."

"I have to keep my grades up and do normal teenage things. He's not going to let me work this fall. Can you believe that?"

"I haven't checked everything yet, but I have sandwiches that Jarvis packed for me."

"Ahhh, that will do. I'll take you both out for dinner when we reach some suitable milestone on this place. But still... why all the work here? It seems a big project for someone not working, and its not your lab."

Toni gave Anya the look.

"Sorry, girl, but I'm siding with Uncle Tony on this one."

Anya's eyes narrowed. "You're supposed to be on my side. I can work and go to school. I just did."

"I was thinking about using it as my lab," she said to Iason. "But now that I'm here and working, I'm thinking that the Young Avengers could use it as their own base."

"Sounds like a good idea to me. It doesn't make a lot of sense having two teams in the mansion. In another year, when everyone graduates, maybe we can move it as well. I'm just fine living wherever."

He glances between the two. "I take it this is a frequent conflict?"

"College is a whole different ball game, Anya. Drill Sargent Rhodes keeps pounding that into this thick head of mine."

She went on. "Seems like all I've ever seen you do is work and school and Avenge."

"I know, but I can handle it," she said.

"I do other things," she said as she looked at Iason. The corners of her mouth twitched into a small smile. "But yes, work, school and Avengers do take up a good deal of my time."

Iason glances at Toni, then Anya, and back to Toni. "Most cultures have an adage about all work and no play. It sounds like the recommendation would be requiring some social life out of her before she can disappear into the lab." he suggests, mostly teasing. Mostly.

Somehow, he thinks he might be able to talk the girls into it. At least Anya.

"Do I need to pull out the old man's "How I had to save Tony Stark's bacon because he almost worked himself to death" stories here, Anya? Because I will if I have to."

This was followed by a giggle. "...I officially give you permission to shoot me if I ever start pulling that."

She nods at Iason. "I like the way you think."

"I'm not that bad," she protested. She knew she was, but she would never admit to it. The workaholic tendencies came from both of her parents and there was no escaping it.

"Fine," she sighed. "I will try to get out more. I just want to get some work around here done first. I'd like to get the YA moved in here soon."

He taps his ear. "I wouldn't have known, necessarily, but apparently what she says is true... built in lie detector. We can get some work done around here, sure. After which, if there's no objections, you're both my dates for a dinner break. We can come back tomorrow. I'll help you til the place is done. As for getting out more, we'll make sure of it."

Yes, they appear to be conspiring together now.

"Listen to the man," Toni said. "Between the three of us, this should take no time at all. Plenty of time to relax. We'll both help."

"Just let me be clear on one thing, just because we're the Young Avengers does not mean I'm dating a robot."

"For the record, I don't like it that you two are conspiring against me."

She was outgunned and she knew it. "Fine. Grab a sandwich and we'll get to work." She went over to the cooler and opened it up. "Jarvis packed a wide variety. He knew I'd be out here for awhile."

She smiled at Iason. "Dinner sounds good." She looked around. The base didn't have windows in it and there wasn't exactly a working clock. "By the way, what time is it? For that matter, what day is it?"

"Its evening sometime, I don't wear a watch, but I bet Toni does." He glances at his co-conspirator. "Robot? I think there's something I'm missing here... but if you're up for it, I'll gladly be your date sometime?"

He shrugs at mention of a sandwich. "I'll go ahead and get to work. I don't get hungry, so I'll save the rations for the people who do, and eat when we go out."

Anya giggled. "Cassie. You're thinking of Cassie."
