Recharging (open)
Kalypso's favorite place to soak up some rays and cosmic energies was the outer edge of the atmosphere. She had spent the last few hours just floating and recharging her batteries. It was so quiet and so peaceful that one couldn't help to appreciate it and appreciate the view. The Earth looked breathtakingly beautiful from space.

Now that her energy stores were replenished, she needed something else. She formed a telekinetic bubble around herself to keep her clothes from burning up on re-entry and headed back toward New York.

Not too much later she was sitting outside her favorite coffee shop and enjoying a cup of cafe mocha.

	"Of course she would," Kal said. Sersi could be a nightmare to some, but to most she was always helpful. "You're family. Part of the side we like." She gave him a wink. "I know you'll be a famous designer someday." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I certainly hope so, Kalypso. We have the rest of our lives before us and there is so much we can see and be and learn and do. I would like to try this first. Perhaps, at some point, I will take a vow of silence for a decade or two, just to see if I can do it." Eli says.

"But, if I can make clothing that people will wear, I will consider than accomplishment." he says.

	"You're not allowed to do that, Cousin. I could not bear the thought of going a decade or two without talking with you," she told him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Give it a decade or two and you might change your mind." he grins in jest. "You could always take a vow of silence with me. We could see who would be the first to crack." Eli suggests. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kalypso laughed. "You would surely win. I cannot keep quiet for long." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eli laughs. "So...if i could find a giant stone or two for your mother, do you think she could solve my monetary issues?" he asks. "I am told that the prices of gold and silver are very good these days." Eli says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-04-29 03:58 am UTC (link)
	"She can turn anything into gold," Kal said. "So it doesn't matter what you give her. The prices are very good right now. Gold is at an all time high. The economy is pretty bad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good to know. I will find enough so that she is not overtaxed on my behalf." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-04-29 04:58 am UTC (link)
	"The problem isn't overtaxing, Mother. The problem will be keeping her from going overboard." Sersi got /enthusiastic/ about things. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-04-30 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Eli seemed confused. "You think she would go overboard?" he asks. He's heard that Sersi loves a good time, and enjoys the company of men, but he can't really imagine her going overboard. Then again, he is viewing her through the lens of his cousin, who always seems very moderate. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We are still talking about the same woman who moved me in with my boyfriend after only dating for a few weeks, right?" Kal asked. "Mom gets enthusiastic about things. Just tell her you need some cash, but do yourself a favor and /don't/ say why." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-04-30 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	"All right. I will do what I can, but I will not lie to her. I suppose she would know if I did." Eli says, chuckling a bit. "Did she really move you in with Jack only after a few weeks? She must really have thought you liked him if she would do that for you." Eli mentions. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-04-30 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	"Just be as vague as possible," Kal advised. "She did. She also moved us into a few different apartments after we did move in with each other. She thought we would be happier at one of the places she picked." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-05-01 12:03 am UTC (link)
	"I wonder how my mother would react to news of my dating. She also tends to be very enthusiastic about things..." Eli says, his eyes downcast. All this time, and still no word. There was nothing else for it, but they still didn't even have a clue of what had happened to her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal reached across the table and took his hand. She gave it a squeeze. "Cousin, if you want to look for her and want help, just say the word. I am there for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Father has officially forbade me from the search. He blames me for whatever is happened. I can hear it in his thoughts when he looks at me." Eli says, before he automatically tries to brighten his outlook. "It does not mean I am not looking. I am just doing so more quietly." he says. "Have you heard from Dae and Iason?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-05-01 01:27 pm UTC (link)
	Kal smiled. "Well it's a good thing he didn't forbid /me/ from looking then. Isn't it?" Kal had a mischievous smile on her face. "I haven't heard from them since they took off for some space adventures." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-05-02 12:51 am UTC (link)
	"You would do that, Kalypso?" Eli asks with surprise. "I would appreciate it if you provide me any information you find." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-05-02 12:57 am UTC (link)
	"Of course I would, Cousin," she said with a smile. "We are family and we must stick together." "Of course I will. You will know anything as soon as I do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-05-02 01:52 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you, Kalypso. With my exile and mother's disappearance, and now that Dae and Iason are gone... you are all the family that I have left. You and Sersi, of course. I will honor that as best I can." Eli says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's not true, Eli. You have more family than you think. Everyone in Olympia is your family. Even on Titan. They would all welcome you among them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-05-03 03:28 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, I know. But my father will not accept me, no matter what I do. That hurts more than you can understand, Kalypso. I have never been the son he wanted, and no matter what I do, I grow further and further from him." Eli says sadly. "Cherish your mother's worry over you. It will be a light in your life, when all others grow dim." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-05-03 04:12 am UTC (link)
	She squeezed his hand. "I know, Cousin, and I cannot imagine how that hurts, but you do have family. Never forget that." "Now, more cheerful thoughts and talk," she said. "Tell me more about this fashion thing and vampire hunting. How many have you killed?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-05-04 12:57 am UTC (link)
	His expression brightens a little. "If I count the one during my time away...I believe I am up to nine. It is getting easier each time." he says. "I need to teach you how to do so, Kalypso, so that you are never unprepared in case they should attack you." Eli reasons. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-05-04 01:05 am UTC (link)
	Kalypso smiled. "I am impressed you have killed so many already. I would like that. It never hurts to be prepared." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
