"Thanks so much!" Vernique smiles at the girl with the fabulous hair. "They're Rochas. I got them on sale." She catches the phone from James. "'Scuse me a sec." She dials. "Hello, may I speak to Paladin please? Well, as soon as he gets back, tell him his daughter called from Avengers Mansion and that she's all right. Yes, thank you." She frowns slightly as she hangs up, and dials again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Akilah twitched. "Welcome back, Charlie," she greeted, with a pat on his back. "Now, you have five seconds to drop your arms before I remove them." Half-joking, of course. She let a smile show. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hmmm, then I am currently missing my girlfriend's birthday. Excuse me, please. I will make it up to you, cousin, of course." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James could count and there was at least one missing. "Where's Svalin?" he asked. "Did something happen?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Eight months ago, Luna's attention to him would have had him shocked into silence. Now, though, Eli simply accepts the friendly gesture and shakes her hand. The sunglasses she wears intrigue him and he wonders if her eyes have issues adjusting to the light. He has better sense than to ask that of someone he barely knows, though. Perhaps if he sees Luna again after today, he will do just that. "I did not realize that there were so many Avengers, though I should have." he chuckles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, I'm only happy to see everyone," he said, laughing as he released Akilah. He knew she wasn't much of a hugger. "Svalin is fine," Charlie said. "I think she just wanted to go home to Asgard for a little while." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You are definitely related to MC," Stevie said of Vernique. "Only people who share blood with her notice hair that quick." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Go cousin," Kal said with a chuckle. "Why don't we all go to the rec room and I'll help the staff whip up some food. I bet it's been awhile since you all have had good cooking." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I need these shoes," MC mused. She then considered leaving the room. Lots going on and she felt...weird about being there. This girl..was the other sister. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Luna laughed. "Yes," she said to Eli. "There are quite an abundance of Avengers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good cooked food would be fantastic right about now," Charlie said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Definitely plenty of unfamiliar territory for Stevie too. She put an arm around MC's shoulder. "You wanna skedaddle?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, I am honored to have fought alongside these good people for as long as I was allowed. They have all been more than kind to me, and I have learned much about humanity and others in their company." Eli says. He hopes Svalin will be back eventually, for he would miss her if she stayed away for good. Now, he had to figure out what to do with the rest of his life from today forward.

	"I wanna run screaming." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You guys don't have to leave," Charlie said, smiling. "I'd like to get to know my new teammates, personally." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Are you...planning on joining the Avengers, now?" Luna asked Eli. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	next_avenger 2011-01-24 02:58 am UTC (link)
	"We can hear you, you know," James said. "We'll figure something out even if means another team. Besides, I don't want to give up leading the Avengers and I'm sure Charlie wants to do it again. We'll work something out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	particlegirl 2011-01-24 02:59 am UTC (link)
	"Uh....." MC grabbed Stevie's arm as tight as she could. "This...awkward....not wearing the right shoes..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mom, if you're in a board meeting or something, I hope it's over soon, because I'm /home/! I'm at the Mansion, and I'm fine, and pleasepleasecomesoon." When she hangs up on the voice mail, she blinks a little as she finally notes what Can-Work-A-bandana-girl said. "...related? I don't have a lot of relatives, unless you count step-relatives, and I prefer not to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We could have the A-Squad and the Shrimp Squad?" Charlie smirked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, maybe..." Stevie told Charlie. Stevie winced at MC's grip on her arm. "Your shoes are fine, MC. Really." She realized Vernique had heard her. "Uh... ooops?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I...had not thought of actually being a member of the Avengers. I am not really a hero, so to speak." Eli says humbly. "I also cannot fully devote myself to the team. I have...family commitments, is the best way to put it." Eli tells Luna, a grimace coming to his face. He would have to face Druig again soon. Would his father know that he was gone? Would he even care? "I would be glad to call the Avengers my friends, though. Charlie offered to teach me about vampires and their ilk at one point. We met a few during our trip." Eli says.
