A new project for an old subject
Like his father, Misha did all his best thinking when he was moving. He ran five miles and turned up in the back to strip off his shirt and shoes, and dive into the pool. He pulled himself out and lay back on the concrete lip to keep thinking.

He was getting nowhere with it.

There was nothing more that could be done right now, for Mina or her parents or Cassidy. The events of the previous weeks hung over the place like a cloud.

Sylvie wheeled herself out to the pool area.

"Hi," she said forlornly. Then, after a pause. "Something needs doing."

He looked up at her from his spot on the ground at her wheels. Sitting up, he held out a hand. "C'mon, we can both use some hugging."

She climbs down into his arms and just clutches a bit.

He held her quietly for minutes before planting a light kiss in her hair. "What needs doing? Whatever it is, let's do it before we think better of it."

"Something out of which something good could potentially come, and if not good, then at least funny. Something that could be even remotely good to look back on no matter how disastrous. If Joe were here, I'd say we needed to set him up on a blind date or something. Got any other candidates?"

"Well..." The moon was in the seventh house. Jupitar and Mars aligned. Peace was guiding the planets, and Misha Loganovich said the first thing that came into his head. Unfortunately, it would probably be his last peaceful day in the mansion for awhile.

"Dad needs a real social life. I want to find him a nice girl for a long term relationship. If that's not possible, a girl with attitude that won't take any of his crap."

Sylvie thinks. "A nice girl who won't take any crap...You know, I know this woman at the New York Public Library... About my mom's age. Miss Williams. Smart. Pretty. Obviously needs to get out more, but not easily phased." Sylvie jazzed her lower hands out a bit.

"Dad would need somebody with good nerves. I think that would work. Does she like Japanese food?"

"I think so. I can confirm it tomorrow." She smiles wryly. "One thing you're going to call a risk factor, though."

"Oh, that was a given the minute you mentioned your Dad," she said cheerfully. "But in the interest of full disclosure, it's only fair to tell you that Miss Williams's hair is on the red side."

If it meant they had a project to distract them, Misha would agree to painting Miss Williams red.

"Red, huh. You know he has terrible luck with redheads. We all do. But I'll allow that maybe we need a redhead to break his current streak."

"Mmmhmm. Could be just the thing. So...Saturday night?"

"Saturday night. I'll make reservations at a nice sushi place and let you know. Even invoke the title if I have to. I'll get Dad to think he's meeting me. When we get them off, you and I will go into hiding. Pick a nice spot. I hear Alaska is nice this time of year."

Sylvie nodded earnestly, then extra-gravely at the last part. "Having better weather than Tierra del Fuego right now, good point."

"Also it's far enough that he'll have time to cool off if he's still determined to make me pay." He smiled. "Is she really nervy?"

"All signs point to 'quite'. Not the 'too dumb to be scared enough to avoid emergency level trouble' kind but the 'would probably keep her head enough to try to stay safe if they're attacked by ninjas' kind." Sylvie smiled. "Which does have to be allotted for in consideration of a date with your dad."

"Oh, I know. You're absolutely right about that, though he hasn't been bothered much in the last year. Hrm...any way you can make sure she has a pocket can of mace?"

"Feasible. She may already own some. I'll try to see without sounding too weird."

"If anybody can, it would be you. You're the most tactful of us all." He gave her a crooked smile. "The one thing we can count on is that Dad will not get mad and yell at her for this. Whatever happens after they exchange names is a whole other story."

"I am. That's how I hardly ever get caught."

Sylvie smiles and nods.
