Lucas is usually the picture of self assurance. He doesn't seem to have 90 percent of the awkward of the typical teenage male. Learning a degree of mastery over telepathy and magic at the same time, while being fairly physically adept and active for his age has a way of helping. There's one thing that he hasn't got quite the same degree of confidence on though - girls. There just weren't many his age on the reservation, and he's had to spend a lot of time on his studies.

So its with an unusual bit of hesitance that he heads into the girls' wing and lounge during the day, when its proper to do so and all, obviously in search of someone or something.

"Oh, definitely not as good," Corey agrees, listening to all that and nodding. "Grandad Lucius is a big fan of knowing how to do stuff, too. Mom could probably make clothes if you gave her a sheep. Cait and I never quite picked it up that far."

"Making basic clothing isn't that hard, really. Though I prefer leather working to weaving. Sounds like your granddad is a smart man."

"He is." Corey cleans up after himself and drinks his chili-cocoa.

And of course Lucas can do his own leatherworking. Corey grins and shakes his head a little. "Lucas, this is going to come as a weird question, but you don't sculpt, do you?"

Self sufficiency is big at home, and with mom, and with Michael. And time to learn when he wasn't doing things like dating or having much of a social life.

Blink. "No, afraid not. Why?"

" Just wondering how much of a Renaissance Man thing you had going. "

And slightly wanting to be mollified over the fact that Lucas can probably out-cook him, and half a dozen other useful things. Good thing Corey doesn't want to start dating now, he'd look totally outclassed.

"Mostly just where its practical. Cooking, weaving, basket-making, leather working, car and home repairs... never really spent a lot of time on arts. I make my dream catchers, but those tie into powers, so still practical, even if you don't believe in the spirituality of it. I never really thought of it as Renaissance Man... just kid who grew up in the middle of nowhere with a mother and mentor who were very big on self-sufficiency. And no television."

"Probably a better way of putting it, yeah. And it's practically impressive how much time one can waste on a TV when one's around."

"Well, not all a waste. I kind of like the Discovery channel, I'm finding. That, and I love baseball. Always used to listen to Rockies games on the radio. Kind of nice being able to see it. But yeah, other than school, life was mostly lived outdoors, with all that entailed."

"The Discovery channel can be fun. Even the commercials for it are fun, really." Corey grinned sheepishly. "Well, you've seen me at baseball, I'm afraid."

"Sure, but who cares if you're any good at it? Its fun. You and your sister were entertaining to watch, though I think I prefer the unpowered version of the game."
