What If: When We Begin
Anya removed her helmet and stepped out of the suit of armor. She was drenched from head to toe with sweat despite the suit's environmental controls and the shorts and tank top she wore were plastered to her skin. Anya did always tend to run a bit on the hot side and it had been quite a workout. She sat down and straddled the bench in the locker room. She laid back and stared up at the ceiling.

All of her limbs felt rubbery and she didn't think she could move. She didn't want to move. This bench was nice and comfy. She could stay here a day or two.

She sighed and knew she would have to move. She had things to do. There was a new suit of armor that needed to be worked on.

	Anya took the offered hand and climbed out of the Jeep. A quick kiss and she kept Sarah's hand in hers. "School. Avengers. You. That's about it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I plan to keep you very busy, you sure you can handle everything?" she teases, returning the kiss, surprised at how easy this is coming out in public like this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm a Stark. We're not happy unless we have ten million things on our plates at once." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah rolls her eyes. "I can see I'm going to have to drag your butt out of the lab even more often. I'm sure I can convince Toni to help though." she replies, heading into the restaurant. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great. I know I don't stand a chance against the two of you," Anya grumbled. She did greet the hostess with a smile and friendly talk which got them a semi-private table. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah leans forward at the table, chin resting on one hand, watching Anya happily. "Nope, and now I get to claim girlfriend rights. You stand even less chance than before." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya gave her girlfriend a warm smile. "I won't mind being pulled out of the lab by you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh good. So... once I have some food so I can think straight, do we want to have 'the serious talking bits' here, or wait til we get back?" It can't all be fun and games, she still has a lot of issues to work out. But first, she needs to even figure out what time zone they're in and what they have here. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 05:09 am UTC (link)
	"Waiting until we get back may be wise," Anya said after a moment to think about it. "Private conversations should remain private and not end up on the web or in print." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good point, and part of what I wanted to talk to you about. But that's fine, it can definitely wait, and I can just sit here and admire you." she replies cheerily, pausing as the waitress arrives. "So... what's good here?" she asks Anya, having never had much occasion to eat in tropical anywhere. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 05:32 am UTC (link)
	Anya nodded. She had a gut feeling that Sarah wanted to talk about things, but this was definitely not the place for it. It could wait until they were alone. "Everything. I know it doesn't make it easier, but everything is good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She considers the menu, letting Anya order first, and settles for the cheeseburger in paradise. She's willing to try all sorts of things, but usually not for a meal right after a morning workout, even if it was dinner time here.

"You are seriously going to need to take me out some and introduce me to more cuisine. I'm still used to thinking in Battleworld or whatever can be scrounged up when pizza or burgers aren't available."

	"It would be my pleasure," Anya said. She of course ordered a burger. She couldn't not order one when they were available. "I've been exposed to a lot of different stuff while I was growing up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I was too, if by different you mean purple rock squid, jubjub bird, terrotoise burgers, and what the few chefs among the battleworlders knew well enough to try and feed into the replicators. After that, it was what we could hunt and scrounge in sentinel America... this last year has been 90% of my exposure to normal. I'm looking forward to broadening my horizons a little."

	"Let me rephrase, I've been exposed to a lot of normal food," Anya said with a grin. "I would love to take you all over the world to try new foods and see the different cultures." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Anywhere you want to take me, sweetie. Really, I can get us there as fast as anything in the hangar, so we can explore pretty easy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thankfully I have a way to keep up to you," she said with a smile. "Though I do want to finish the new one soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-24 06:01 am UTC (link)
	"Well of course, though I'm kind of enjoying carrying you too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 06:13 am UTC (link)
	"You don't need flying as an excuse to get close," Anya pointed out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-24 06:28 am UTC (link)
	"No, but if we're traveling anyway, I'm all for traveling close." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 06:31 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, dear, but I am just a mere mortal and can't handle high speeds without my suit." The waiter came with their food and placed it on the table in front of them. Anya's stomach rumbled after catching whiff of the food. Now she was hungry. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah digs into her food hungrily, its been way too long since dinner. After a few bites, she finally responds. "True, though as long as I have the shield, I can carry you a lot faster. Not as fast as you can do with your suit." she concedes, before winking. "Spoilsport." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 06:35 am UTC (link)
	"I know. I'm a killjoy," Anya grinned. "But what's better? Flying close or spending quality quiet time at the destination?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-24 06:42 am UTC (link)
	"Ooohhh, you're good." she offers, gesturing with a fry at Anya. "You win this round." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 06:43 am UTC (link)
	Anya grinned. "Of course I'm good. I'm a Stark." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
