Family Dinner
"Manny? Kelly?" Bea asked over the comms. "Could you meet me in the den?"

	"Wait, you mean..meet your parents?" And Manny will blanch a moment. "I..si, si I can do that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	A deeper sigh. "Granted, there is that. But I'm hoping that he's developing pretty good judgment by now." Manny gets a smile. "Well, I'm glad. And even if Kelly doesn't come, thereby preventing the reassurance that absolutely nothing you say could seem awkward in comparison, I want you to know that it will still be fine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I didn't say no. I'm sure jail would be a character building experience for him. You know I love spending time with you, big sister." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 09:02 pm UTC (link)
	"Well..to be honest Bea..I'm not worried about what I might say," Manny explains awkwardly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Mom and Dad would never let Uncle Laz get himself arrested. That's just asking for him to end up in a lab somewhere. But you're invited, and it's your call. And Manny, Dad does not maintain a lot of telepathic contact when he's not working." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh!" Manny says with relief, wiping a bead of sweat away. "Bien, that could have been..awkward." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	"Though, I mean, you never know. Sneaky, sneaky telepaths. He could be violating your thoughts at any time. Especially if he suspects you're picturing his little girl naked... I mean, not that I'd blame you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	"You're always so helpful, Kelly." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 09:29 pm UTC (link)
	And Manny blanched some more. "Dios..if I think about not thinking it and it pops in there..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	"I know! Especially now that I said something. And you know, being all nervous and struggling not to be distracted is just going to increase the chances of him catching some idea of your surface thoughts, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 09:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Hey, no creating panic loops. Manny, think about this. If he suspected you were thinking about stuff that he wouldn't want to hear, he'd have his shields up completely, not go looking. Because he doesn't want to hear that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, Kelly was definitely not helping, which was likely the point. He then listened to what Bea told him. "That..that makes sense." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	"It makes sense up until you hear about every story about fathers, daughters and boyfriends in the history of ever. But ok, since you asked nicely, Sis... sure, no more panic loops, probably. And I'll come along. It would be good to see Mom again too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	Bea smiled. "Thanks, Kelly." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	"Maybe I should just think about puppies the whole time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	"Just to we're clear, that's puppies like young, fluffy junior attack dogs, as opposed to puppies, the euphemism for tits, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	Manny just gave Kelly a flat, unamused look. "Baby dogs." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-06 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Bea laughs. "Everything is going to be fine. We'll teleport out tomorrow afternoon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 11:33 pm UTC (link)
	"You'll do much better around this family if you get a sense of humor. Well, except with Bea's Dad. His scowl is welded on. Don't let it unnerve you or make it seem like he knows what you're thinking. He probably doesn't.... anyway... tomorrow! See you then!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 11:35 pm UTC (link)
	"I, do so have a sense of humor," Manny said indignantly. "I just don't want to anger a man who could filet my mind." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-06 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	"Don't worry about that part. He's always angry to begin with. Just stay away from any of the multitude of subjects he gets touchy about and you'll be mostly ok." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2013-04-06 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	"..do I need a list?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-07 12:02 am UTC (link)
	"You do not need a list. Besides, some of them can't be avoided. Mom and Dad are going to want to discuss the attack. Just because it's a birthday dinner doesn't mean we don't talk about fighting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-04-07 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"Very kind of you to be so reassuring, like usual, sister dear. You still really might want to consider making him that list. Just in case. Then he can think about you naked, puppies, and the things he shouldn't be talking about." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	charmedlife 2013-04-07 12:09 am UTC (link)
	"My dad is not going to filet anyone's mind at the dinner table. There's no need to obsess over precautions against it, because it won't happen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
