The manual's in my other tights.
It was the end of the school year and the last report card for little Scott's first grade. Good grades all around- As and Bs. There were some incidents that blackened the report but she all ready knew about those. She'd had a talk with Scotty about how he wasn't allowed to take apart the computers in the computer lab. She'd also had a talk with him about how he wasn't supposed to hit the other kids at school during recess. That she was more concerned about considering his father was... well...

But she'd gotten into fights as a child too. It was just one of those things. Right?

Right?

She really wished parenthood came with a manual.

	Cass put her arms around Kristoff's waist. "And what about you? How are you doing?" She knew how the bad news from his homeland got under his skin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I...will be fine." He may have exhaled just a little more than necessary there. "Thanks again for your help earlier. I ...just couldn't leave the possibilities there undealt with. Or worse, try to deal with them myself." The thin smile there's stiff, but only a little forced. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And again, you're welcome." Cass reached out to touch Kristoff's cheek. "You know you don't have to pretend it doesn't bother you. You're not very good at it." The last sentence was delivered with a teasing, soft smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff's arms tightened around her, and his eyes closed at her touch. "I suppose not," he said softly. "I just don't want...I..." He exhaled a little firmly. "Cassandra, all I can think of is that it will be like it was when I was five, but more." And this? This would be the worst time ever to comment on the oddness of his tendency for full names.

	"That's not going to happen." Cassie rubbed the back of Kristoff's neck. "We're not gonna let it happen. I promise." She placed both hands on his neck and tilted his head towards her. She leaned in herself so she could look into his eyes if he let her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff's eyes did meet hers eventually as he made a slight, low, acknowledging-type sound, although he didn't actually say anything just yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassie wasn't sure just what to say next to comfort Kristoff but she didn't have the words needed. Instead she pressed her lips against Kristoff's in a gentle kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you," he said quietly after the kiss, and just held her for a while longer. "Everything else is all right?" Was he forgetting anything? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-05-28 05:21 am UTC (link)
	"Everything's fine." Of course not everything was but at least she had enough money right now to pay the bills. In her book that qualified as great. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff was quite the hypocrite (he acknowledge this and blamed the Richards blood for it). As much as he'd tried to establish a level of independent responsibility in raising Vincent, he often wished Cassie would take more help. But there are lines and he doesn't cross them. When he can help himself. "I'm glad to hear it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff was wise to pick his fights because Cassie was not going to give way on that one. Yet. "And everything else is O.K. for you?" God, this was so stupid. She didn't know what to say. She wasn't supposed to be the awkward one. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nothing of concern except the sheer bafflement of how Vincent can both harbor...Certain Interests and still spend his weekends as he does." See? Weird sibling behavior. Nothing lightens the mood better, right? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-05-28 07:40 am UTC (link)
	Cassie grinned. "Vincent's very...." Don't say special. "Well sometimes he reminds me of you. Not the weekend partying but being completely oblivious about some things. It's cute." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A small, thin smile. "Sending him to school was supposed to make him better than me at that. Not just get me put-upon looks and a decade of phone calls that begin 'Dr. Vernard, it's about your brother...'." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-05-28 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh don't feel bad. It's a guy thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	discardedheir 2009-05-29 02:38 am UTC (link)
	A quirked eyebrow. Dr. Kristoff Vernard did not consider himself the sort of person prone to Guy Things. That was what The Torch was for, when he was available. "I will take your word for it, then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A guy thing was anything more than one guy did. At least for teasing purposes. "You're cute when you're confused." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That I am glad to hear." He kissed her cheek. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-05-29 04:03 am UTC (link)
	She gave him a quick peck on the lips in response to that kiss. "Before the Moleman invades do you want to go out? Or stay in. But do you want to do something?" ~~Me.~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If you happen to be hungry, we could get dinner. If you need air, we could just take a walk. Or I can make some tea and stay here for the evening." Kristoff made excellent tea, if he said so himself. His mother had been an herbalist, and it was practically a hobby. "Please choose." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-05-29 04:40 am UTC (link)
	"Mmm tell you what, you can make tea and I can resist putting in my own ingredients." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm very grateful." (Reply to this)(Parent)
