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.

	"Actually, you can. You created that mind of her own, Princess Genius Brat." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I may have created it, but I don't control what she thinks. Right, Darlene?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I am capable of taking in new information that will define how I perceive any particular situation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tell me Goddard treats you with the same tolerant nanny attitude." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 06:16 am UTC (link)
	"Goddard is a different beast. He's less apt to keep tabs on me and more apt to just argue for the sake of arguing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 06:27 am UTC (link)
	"I think they're switched around. You need the tabs, and I can ignore the arguing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 06:30 am UTC (link)
	"Oh no. I don't need the tabs. That's you." "So what's been happening on the superhero front? I caught wind of something in London, but no details." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 06:36 am UTC (link)
	"I'm still not sure how it happened," he began, easing Darlene into the next lane to bypass a slow moving tourist. "Lucas Moonstar picked up some magical SOS and we ended up in London fighting werewolves. The B team wasn't too far away fighting zombies with their own magic user." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 06:37 am UTC (link)
	"You mean the A-team. The X-Dorks are the B-team," she grinned. "Everyone okay?" she asked in a serious voice. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 06:45 am UTC (link)
	"The B-team had zombies, he said with slow exaggeration. "We, the better team, had werewolves to deal with. Sharp teeth and claws, like some of the girls I date." He patted her arm. "Everyone is okay. We made very sure of that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 06:49 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, yeah. We both know the Avengers are the better team," she teased. "Good. I'd hate for anyone to get hurt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 06:57 am UTC (link)
	"We don't know any such thing. Avengers are trying to be the X-Men. What you all do with chemicals and technology, we do with natural power." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 06:58 am UTC (link)
	"Says the one who wears a tech based suit of armor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 07:06 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, it's pretty cool," he said with enthusiasm. "But underneath the armor, I'm still the mutant. My skills were already in place before your dad let me use it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 07:07 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, but you don't go into a fight now without it. If mutants are so superior to those of us who use tech and other abilities, you wouldn't wear the suit." Complete with her sticking her tongue out at him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 07:14 am UTC (link)
	"I wear it because it helps me keep my team safe, but you have a point. I shouldn't hide what I am behind a mask and an armored suit." He nodded solemnly; she couldn't see the glint in his eyes on the road. "I'll stop wearing it out in the field." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 07:16 am UTC (link)
	She knew she was being manipulated into telling him to wear it. "You do what you think is best." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 07:26 am UTC (link)
	He grinned. She was so stubborn it was cute. "I try. It's a tough job. I don't know why Lyta wants to fight me for it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 07:27 am UTC (link)
	"Fight you for what?" Now she was puzzled. Did she miss a change in subject? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 07:36 am UTC (link)
	"Keeping my team safe. Lyta wants to tussle for team leader. Or she just wants to yank my chain. Hard to tell the difference sometimes. Getting hungry yet?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 07:43 am UTC (link)
	"Oh. You should be team leader, but I may be a bit biased." She gave him a smile. "If you want to eat, I can eat something. Otherwise, I'm good." She really wanted to get home. Being away had sucked, it always sucked, and she just wanted to be around her family and friends. Anya had separation issues and she knew it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-13 07:58 am UTC (link)
	They shared enough issues that he knew she was anxious to be home. They were homebodies at heart. "We'll risk Darlene's disapproval and hit a drive through for burgers, and keep pushing on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2009-12-13 07:59 am UTC (link)
	"Oh I'm not going to make Darlene put out by eating in the car. I'm already going home to one cranky AI, I don't need another one. There's a diner not too far from here we can stop at." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_ai 2009-12-14 12:05 am UTC (link)
	I would make an exception for you, Ms. Stark. Please do not let his Royal Pain use ketchup. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
