There Goes the Neighborhood
The move to Cambridge had gone surprisingly smoothly. Anya had her two suits packed into shipping containers and packed onto a truck. Along with other various pieces of equipment, mainly computers and screens, and a trunk or two of her clothes. The ride up was uneventful as Anya followed the truck in her car.

The renovations to the old firehouse were almost done. There was still a little bit of work left to be done, but the place was liveable now and ready for the new team. It was an old firehouse with four floors for living space, a garage at the bottom and a expansive basement. Anya was claiming the basement area for her lab. It was the most open space in the building and could be secured better than the rest.

The ground floor was for vehicles. So far there was only her car, but she was sure there were more to come. The first floor was the kitchen and living area, the second a gym and a game room, and the other two floors were bedrooms. Each member would be able to have their own room along with an extra room for a guest room. It had come along quite nicely.

Moving day had arrived and one by one the members she had invited to join the team had arrived. Rooms where claimed and they put away belongings.

By the time dinner time rolled around, everyone was tired and no one wanted to cook. In Anya's case it was lack of skills which prevented her from cooking. So it was dinner out on Anya. They headed down the block to Cinderella's. It was Italian food and she was sure everyone could find something to eat.

They sat around the table and talked while they ate.

Rok sighs. "It was my fault as well for not being in control. It has been over 10 years. I should be able to forget what happened that night. But many nights, I lie awake, remembering what... both of your predecessors did. Finding out your secret caused a conflict of interest in me, and I became confused. I did not wish to create a scene." Rok looks at someone getting the very cake he had mentioned earlier.

"In a rare turn of events, I am not hungry anymore. Let us return to the table, and tonight when he arrive to the firehouse, perhaps we can speak in the lab." Rok looks down, then back up to Anya, still avoiding eye contact a bit.

"Has my radiation equipment come in yet?"

Anya shook her head. "If we forget the horrible things that happen, we may doom ourselves to repeat them or not learn from them. You're not creating a scene. Unless of course you want to start smashing some tables up or something." She offered him a small smile. "I am sorry for the bad things that have happened to you in the past and I am sorry if I upset you."

She knew he had been looking forward to the cake. She made a mental note to have another one made and sent over to their place later tonight. It paid to be a Stark at times.

"We can talk later if you like. I will tell you how I became the Lady Mandarin and the things I was made to do."

"It has. I have put it down in the lab for now. We can go down later and get it and bring it to your room."

"I would only need the spare radiation suits brought to my room. The money I was going to spend on lodgings has instead gone toward a new set of suits. Including some in the colors of our new teammates." Rok looks at his hand. Where he had melted the fork was a little burned.

"And as fun as smashing tables would be, I know from experience that someone making a ruckus when you are having dessert is quite annoying, and I would rather these people not have me ruining their food. But I will reheat any meals that have gone cold. The controlled release of microwave radiation soothes it. It was how mother warmed my morning outfits." Rok looks to the table. "I'll be back there in a moment."

Never more in Rok's life had he been so confused. Nor had he ever missed China as much as now, if only for the fact that 18 was the legal drinking age there. He wanted cinnamon schnapps badly right now.

"Okay. Come back when you're ready." Anya gave him another small smile and returned to the table.
