Taking a Break
Trying not to worry too much about everything going on, Mac came by the FF's headquarters with a nice little potted sundew plant.

	"I guess everyone has their issues. I guess I'm just grumpy because I'm worried." Pause. "How did you two -- you probably don't want to talk about that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She shakes her head. "You may ask me anything, Mac, if you wish." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How'd your relationship break down." A sheepish expression. "A guy likes to know how not to screw up, you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Andrea drew in a breath. It was not strictly necessary--she did not need to breathe beyond the occasional intake of fresh air to assist her cooling cycle--but it gave her something to do while she gathered her thoughts.

"At a time when I... when we needed him--Franklin had been transported to hell, I had been made human, the world was otherwise falling apart--Vincent chose to stay in Asgard and fight for them, even when given the choice of returning to us."

She frowned. "Perhaps I acted hastily... but at the time, it seemed as though belonging to a people he had not lived among for years was suddenly more important to him than his family."

Mac listens, wide-eyed. "Not that hasty in my book," he says, taking her hand. He knows how badly she took the Human thing. With a huge mess happening on top of that? "Sounds like a pretty darn good sign that the relationship just isn't working out." And now it's his turn to take a breath, both to repress any new pissed-off impulses at Vincent, and to make sure he's saying this next part right. "Andrea, I love my family in Atlantis very much, and I don't always know what'll happen with Avengers stuff, so I can't promise I'll always be there when you need me; but I'll do my best."

	Andrea gives his hand a squeeze. "And I too, love my father, and my family in the Fantastic Four very much. And I may be called to defend the Negative Zone or the Microverse, or out into space at a moment's notice. But I shall do what I can to tell you, and I promise to be there whenever I can, no matter what." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He holds her hand and smiles. "Good to know." He sips his cocoa with his free hand. "How's school?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Andrea smiles. "It is going well. So far, no one has connected me with the more famous Andrea of the Fantastic Four, other than to note the similarity of names."

Though a few people had been quite curious as to why she did not use contractions.

"I must admit, I feel somewhat guilty. The majority of my general ed classes are quite easy. With my processing capacity and memory, it almost feels like cheating."

	"Hey, you're attending the classes; you're doing the work. You're still getting it honestly." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	awesome_andrea 2011-03-16 12:57 am UTC (link)
	"You make a good point," she agrees. "Paper writing, at least, proves a bit more challenging." "And how goes your delivery business?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 01:01 am UTC (link)
	"Doing great. Business is booming." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 01:22 am UTC (link)
	"Well, we ended up with so many, once the displaced people came back, that we've had a bit of a split, so that's been interesting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	awesome_andrea 2011-03-16 05:18 pm UTC (link)
	Andrea smiles. "There is something to be said for being part of a group where the number of members is built in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	Mac chuckles. "Yeah." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am glad you chose to stay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 06:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Had way too many reasons to stay to even think about going." He leans in a little closer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Andrea leans in herself, and kisses him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	And he kisses quite happily. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good," she says when they break. "Because otherwise, I might have to track you down and bring you back." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-16 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes, Ma'am. I'll be good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	awesome_andrea 2011-03-17 12:54 am UTC (link)
	"I would like that very much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-03-17 12:56 am UTC (link)
	"Great." And, once the bill is settled, off they'll go, his arm around her waist firmly. (Reply to this)(Parent)
