Sister Bonding
Anya spent the week studying for her finals next week and when she needed a break, she cleaned. While she wasn't in James' caliber of messy, she wasn't exactly neat. Clothes and electronic parts usually littered the studio apartment. Anya didn't do laundry and she kept forgetting to go to the dry cleaners.

By the end of the week, the place was relatively cleaned up as in one could actually sit on the couch or sleep in the bed. Anya usually slept in her chair at her desk. Dirty laundry was in a pile in the corner and the electronic parts were moved to one side of the apartment.

Friday night came and Eliza would be here soon. Anya ordered a few pizzas and studied while she waited for her sister to arrive.

	Anya opened the door and greeted her sister with a big smile and a hug. "You made it!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eliza hugs Anya right back. "Yeah. I got lost a couple of times... the streets weren't labeled how I thought they were." She shrugs lightly. "But I got here without calling for directions." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's the Boston area. Streets are crazy up here, along with the drivers." Anya grinned. "What we lack in cooking skills, we make up for in direction sense. Come in and please excuse the clutter." Anya stepped out of the doorway to allow her sister to come in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She comes in and crooks one eye brow. "This isn't bad. At least you organized it into piles of things instead of a mass of stuff in one corner." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-04 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	"I cleaned up," she admitted. "The stuff used to be all over the place. Though I'm still not nearly as bad as James." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I've taken looks at his room," Eliza admits. "It could be the subject of a C list horror film." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tell me about it. I stepped in something that used to be food at one point." Anya shuddered at the memory. "How was the drive up? Which car did Dad let you borrow?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-04 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	"I seriously refuse to ever set foot in that room," Eliza says making a face. "I'm not a neat freak but I never like letting things go." Eliza tucks a stray hair behind one ear. "He had this Altima that wasn't being used. It's a nice car. The seats are just too deep for me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya nodded. "It's totally gross. I always thought I was messy until I met him." "Cool. Anyway, I got pizza and I went to the store earlier so we have drinks. If we want anything other than cereal, we have to call for something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-04 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Pizza is great. Soda or milk would be awesome if you have it," Eliza adds. She wasn't going say that she always thought she was pretty neat. It doesn't matter. "I've never even seen what kinda cereal you like eating. I tend to like sweet things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Milk, water, iced tea, diet soda and I think that may be it." Anya really didn't pay attention to what she was eating or drinking or when she was buying it.

"I eat anything, but we can always walk to the store if there's something specific you want. Make yourself at home. I didn't know what you wanted to do, but I got some movies in case you don't want to go out."

	"I'm okay with staying in so we can eat and then go out and do something. I'm not sure what though," she admits. She wasn't very familiar with the area around the ollege so she was open to finding something to do. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-04 11:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Sounds good. We can always go into Boston and Newbury street." Anya smiled. "Shopping." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-04 11:27 pm UTC (link)
	"Shopping is fun. Should we look at stuff for the team?" She doesn't think she knows what to get James. Maybe a collector's copy of a game he might enjoy? "I have no idea what I'd get Toni... and a silly part of me wants to give Sammy a stop watch." Because it might get Sammy to laugh. Everyone needs to laugh more. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-04 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	"We should, while we're looking for dresses of course," Anya grinned. "Toni is tough to buy for. She's my best friend in the entire world and...gah! Though I already got her gift." She thought about it for a moment. "Yeah, Sammy would get a laugh from it. I made James a new game, but he'll love any game. I know a few he's been eying, so I'll point them out to you."

	"Awesome," Eliza flashes a grin. Then touches her hair. "I like wearing green sometimes but it seems a little much. Maybe I'll find something nice in blue or something. I'm tempted to repeat on something I worse before since it made Cait's brother smile." Eliza pauses and blushes or a second. "I had fun with him. Cait trained him for public well."

	Anya shook her head. "You cannot wear the same dress to another function. It's against the rules." She nodded firmly. "New dress. New shoes. Spa trip before hand." "Oh? Do I detect some liking here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-04 11:53 pm UTC (link)
	"But... Fine. I know better anyways. I can wear them again for dates but not for parties," Eliza agrees. She shrugs off the fact it seems kind of wasteful. "A little? He's a nice guy," Eliza admits. "I just got over my not letting myself get attached to people complex. And he was interesting unlike the bubble heads I ran into there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's all about image," Anya said. "You can always wear dresses for Avenger parties. No media there." "You don't go to those parties to meet interesting people. Misha says he's quite the prankster, though seeing how his dad is Bobby Drake, it's not surprising." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-05 12:01 am UTC (link)
	She rolls her eyes. "I guess I just don't enjoy being 'seen' like that." Eliza sighs just a bit. "I know. But at the same time does that mean I have to pretend to be interested in what they're saying? Some of them are pretty bad at talking." By that she means they don't know how to widen conversation topics. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-05 12:04 am UTC (link)
	Anya giggled. "You are so in the wrong family for that. I grew up in the media eye and will always be in it. Mom being royalty just added to it." "The trick is to smile and nod. They'll eventually go away." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-05 12:35 am UTC (link)
	"I didn't have to do this much at home. Just the one charity thing then hang out with the Avengers," she says with a chuckle. "Dad hated getting in a tux more than a couple times a year. Mom liked dressing up though." Eliza thinks about it. "So like stupid people? Normal stupid I mean." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-05 12:39 am UTC (link)
	"It's part of being a Stark and in the family," Anya said. "I guess the Black Widow likes dressing up no matter what dimension she's from." Anya smiled. "Something like that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-05 12:54 am UTC (link)
	She chuckles and shrugs. "I guess I should follow your lead in that respect. I'm okay at the dressing up part but sometimes I need to follow someone's lead when it comes to other stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't worry, I won't steer you wrong," Anya assured her sister. "Let's eat and get to the shopping. I need a break from all this studying." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
