Keeping a Promise
Anya had made a promise to Halbjorn and she was finally going to keep it. Keeping her word was very important to her and she wasn't going to start breaking it now. She left a message on Steve's phone telling him she'd be back late tomorrow night and was going to California to go sky diving with Halbjorn and checking on the Defenders' computer systems.

Commercial flights sucked, but she did at least go in first class on a direct flight to LA. From there she grabbed a cab to take her out to the compound.

Without her Avengers access, she had to do this the complicated way.

She rang the buzzer at the gate.

	"They have a long history, but I wouldn't call it great." Anya knew her father had a nasty habit of pissing people off including the ones he called friend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My father hast a long memory. And few he e'er calls friend. And the Avengers are oft spoken of like a second family. Hath no doubt thy father gains great regard for backing that august company, and always wilt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well it is important to keep the Avengers around," she said. The company not in a Stark's hands didn't sit comfortably with her, but it was much better than her aunt running it all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye, they hath done a great deal of good in this world.." he agrees, not at all cognizant of any of the complexities. As usual. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They have and they will continue to do it. If you ever want to do this again, just let me know. I don't get the chance to go often." The cab pulled up and waited for them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye, I enjoy thy company, and wouldst always welcome the chance to go surfing or skydiving more." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-01-30 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Great. I'll definitely be out during spring break. The computers will most likely need some work by then." Anya climbed into the cab. "Hungry?" she asked after he climbed in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-01-30 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, starving. Skydiving wouldst not seem to hold great exertion, but I hath worked up quite an appetite." Which is normal anyway. "We wilt look forward to thy next visit and see to it thou hast suitable accommodations then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-01-30 09:45 pm UTC (link)
	"What are you in the mood for?" No, that wasn't a loaded question for a change. It was an honest question. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-01-30 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	She has a boyfriend, don't go with the obvious answer. "Meat and potatoes and bread." As usual. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Steakhouse it is then." She gave an address to the driver. "There's a great Brazilian place not far from here." It was also all you can eat, which would suit him well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-01-30 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	It will suit him well. If he doesn't bankrupt the place. "That soundeth wonderful then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Figured you would like it," she said with a smile. "Thank you again for the Yule gift. It was very thoughtful of you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-01-30 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	He nods. "I thought thou wouldst appreciate it. I am hopeful Steve doth as well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya turned a bright red. "He did. Very much so." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good, I hadst not heard at the time, but I am most pleased for the both of thee." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-03 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Thank you. I think I may wear it again for Valentine's Day." Steve's reaction to seeing her in the chain mail bikini had been very good to say the least. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-02-03 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	A day that involves chain mail bikini wearing girls? Sign him up. "Valentine's Day?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's a Earth custom where people who care about each other do something together. Something romantic. Usually dinner and there's usually chocolate. It's usually for celebrating love. Basically if you care for someone, you do something to show your feelings." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-02-03 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	Really? Hm, this would bear some thinking on. Yeah, he was pretty sure he still had Chris and Vernique's phone numbers. "Ah, I see. T'will bear some consideration, but methinks it soundeth like a fine holiday." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-03 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	"The idea is nice, unfortunately it has become so commercialized. Spending time with someone is better than just buying them something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-02-03 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, it make'st some sense, put that way. And so many of thy holidays seem to be about buying gifts. I am sure thy beau shalt find something that suits thee. I wilt need to consider this day. At least some customs here doth make some sense though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-03 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	"Going to spend it with someone in particular?" she asked, now curious. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-02-03 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Mayhap, I shalt hath to see if they are free. Surely there art plenty of other plans, and t'would require travel." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-03 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	She smiled. "Good for you. Now, let's eat and then after dinner we can spar with swords. I've been practicing." (Reply to this)(Parent)
