I'll Be Home For Christmas
Anya walked into her apartment and immediate dropped the computer bag slung over a shoulder. Finals were over. The semester was over and she was a free woman until mid-January. Now it was time to go home. Home. The word never sounded so good. She wanted to see her parents, her siblings, her friends and Steve. She had a whole month ahead of her of being surrounded by the people she loved. It sounded perfect.

She went to her desktop and brought up Amtrak’s homepage and looked at the schedule. With any luck she’d be able to get a train that left in a few hours and be home by dinner time. Jarvis’ cooking was waiting for her along with her own bed.

Once a train ticket was purchased she went about packing her bags.

	"Apparently not good enough," Anya said as she pulled her laptop out of the bag and booted it up. "Speaking of updates, I have one for you." Anya needed something to do when she needed a study break. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I also request an updated contact list of his associates. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Anya couldn't help but to laugh a little. Never in a million years would she have thought Darlene would be this entertaining and so much of a hassle for her brother. He totally deserved it.

"Of course," Anya said. She had already added code to allow Darlene access to the 'Net. This way she could surf the Net when she was bored. It would only take two seconds to write code to allow him access to his phone.

	You have been kidnapped twice in the last year, the voice reminded him. Kidnappings that might have been prevented or shortened if I had better access. If I am to fulfill my primary function and monitor your activities, you will have to accustom yourself to the situation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You have a very valid point, Darlene," Anya said as she added the requested feature into the code. "We worry about you, Big Brother." There was a huge smirk on her face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You realize that this means war," he said in his best Bugs Bunny voice. "I can't even take this car on a date. She'll have my date's entire background before I can get to the goodnight kiss." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's not a bad thing," Anya said. She didn't remind him about the last girl he was interested in. That would be cruel. "Right, Darlene?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_ai 2009-12-10 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	That is correct, Ms. Stark. I would be happy to refrain from mentioning any social contact's negative feedback and report directly to Mr. Logan or Mrs. Stark for any necessary resolution. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Whoa!" The car jumped as his foot hit the gas pedal. "My car is not going to tattle on me to my mommy and daddy!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya had to laugh. It was just too funny. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_ai 2009-12-10 09:44 pm UTC (link)
	I do not believe it is humorous, Ms. Stark, the voice chided. Aside from the unpleasantness, if your brother is taken again I do not know what will happen to me. I am too valuable to belong to just anyone. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"See what you did?" Misha said. "You made a girlfriend/nanny for me, and then gave her an ego." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-10 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh Darlene, it is funny. The thought of you telling on him to his parents is a hoot." She patted the dashboard. "You will be well taken care of no matter what. There's a nice big garage full of cars that has plenty of room for you in it." Knowing Darlene, she'd make Anya give the other cars voices so she would have company. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I would merely inform them if his social contact has the potential to become a danger. A verifiable background with a valid, traceable identity is sufficient to maintain my discretion on the matter. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He ground his teeth together and worked at throwing off his annoyance. They meant well, both the brat and the car. It was just...guh! "What I want to see is Mom's or Dad's face when Darlene calls them to say I'm dating a dangerous person. I could be having pizza with one of the X-Men and that would fill the requirement."

	"I completely understand, Darlene, but from a point of view it is funny." She looked at her brother. "Darlene will know who the X-Dorks are and who the Avengers are. You don't need to worry about that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_ai 2009-12-10 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. That is why I need access to his cellular phone and contact list. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-10 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	He glanced over at Anya. "You're loving this a little too much, Brat. Do you worry that much about me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-10 10:14 pm UTC (link)
	"You have to ask? Of course I worry that much about you. Given who we both are and who our parents are, we should be a lot more worried about each other." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-10 10:24 pm UTC (link)
	"I worry about you, even when you're telling me to mind my own business and acting stupid where I can't reach you." He reached over to pat her knee. "You know you can call me at any time, day or night, and I'll be there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-10 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	She put a hand on his. "I know. And you can always call me at any time and I'll be there. Maybe take me a little longer to get there these days, but I will be there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-10 10:35 pm UTC (link)
	"I never doubt it. I can't doubt it. You put an AI in my car." He smiled. "I love ya, Brat. I won't even deny it later. You getting hungry? We can stop for a bag of burgers and fries to eat on the road so you get home sooner. I know they miss having you around." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-10 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	"Love you too, Dork. I'll deny it in public of course." She grinned. "I'm good for now. I'm good for about an hour or so, but if you're hungry." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There is a restaurant suitable to your requirements 32.4 miles ahead. If you wish a fast meal rather than a good one, you may take the next exit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
