Happy Birthday Jack
Kalypso had been preparing for Jack's birthday so that when it got here she was ready. She had been up with the sun and went out to get the last few remaining items she would need for their lunch. The picnic basket was packed with food and a bottle of wine and ready to go. His gift, a small device of Eternal technology, that would capture images and then display them in a 3D holograph was wrapped and put with the basket.

Now all that she needed was the birthday boy.

	Kal kissed him. She took a deep breath and a moment later they were on Titan. She slumped and held onto Jack for support. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He cradled her against him as he took a guess at where they were. Titan was a beautiful place, both in reality and to his designer's eye. He waited patiently for her to regain some of her strength, murmuring encouragement in her hair while he looked around. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal held on to him for a few moments. She was so weak and she felt like she was going to be sick. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kalypso gave him a weak smile. A few deep breaths later and she felt a little better. Kal straightened up and gave him a kiss. "Thank you."

She looked around. Their sudden arrival had attracted some attention. Kal gave them a smile and waved. She wanted them to see her and that it was all right.

A familiar face caught her eye and she noticed her grandfather coming toward them.

	He kept an arm around her just in case, ignoring the stares. "You'd think no one here had ever seen a beautiful woman and her adoring slave before," he commented in a low voice. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Humans are rare on Titan," Kal said quietly to him. "Grandfather," she said to the man with a nod. "This is Jack Murdock the man I have told you about." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mentor smiled. "Welcome to Titan, Jack Murdock. I am Mentor. Leader here and Kalypso's grandfather." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Human he might be, but he wasn't ashamed of it. He returned Mentor's smile. "Thank you, sir. I'm glad to meet you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She gave her grandfather a hug. "It is good to see you again and be here." "Today's Jack's birthday and I was hoping we could use the gardens for a picnic," Kal said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It is a pleasure to meet you," he said to Jack and then gave Kal a hug. "Of course you may use the gardens. Please visit for awhile before you go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack waited quietly while they talked. He knew Sersi liked him, but the rest of Kal's family was still an unknown. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you. We will be sure and visit awhile before we go," Kal assured him. She wrapped an arm around Jack's and started to move him toward the gardens. She loved her grandfather, but the man could talk forever. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That was a surprise," Jack said in a low voice as they moved away. "For a moment I wondered if I was going to be kicked off the planet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-07-11 07:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Of course you wouldn't be kicked off the planet," she said. "You're not a threat." Kal led him through the city until they came to a vast public garden. Trees of different colors and a wide variety of strange plants grew all around. A small stream cut its way through the grounds and emptied into a pond. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No grandfather is supposed to think a guy is worthy of his granddaughter." He squeezed her fingers between his. "He's a lot more powerful than the average grandpa." "Are you feeling better?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We're a little different than most families. I am. Thank you." She found a nice clearing that was surrounded by a myriad of plants and was relatively secluded. She set the basket down and spread out a small blanket. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2011-07-12 12:37 am UTC (link)
	Jack helped with the blanket and sat down. "What's in the basket, Little Red Riding Hood? The Wolf has an appetite." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal smiled at him and used her illusion abilities to turn him into the Big Bad Wolf and her into Little Red. "My what big teeth you have," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack /laughed/ when he saw the illusions. He put out his hands and saw big, hair paws. Still laughing, he bared his teeth at her. "All the better to eat you with, my dear!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-07-12 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	Kal laughed with him. "My what big eyes you have!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2011-07-13 02:19 am UTC (link)
	"The better to see you with, my dear!" He leaned forward to peer intently at her. Well, leering mostly. "Have I told you today that you're beautiful and I love to hear you laugh?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-07-13 02:48 am UTC (link)
	Kal laughed and dropped the illusion. She kissed him deeply. "I love you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2011-07-17 12:42 am UTC (link)
	Jack pulled her over into his lap. Completely and totally innocent-like. They were in public after all. "I love you. For as long as we have." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2011-07-17 12:52 am UTC (link)
	"I'll take forever," she said. She kissed him once more. "Hungry?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
