The Trick is to Keep Breathing
As usual after dealing with something related to Temujin, Anya hid out in the lab. This was the lab at the condo because she didn't have access to the lab at the Avengers' mansion. Though with Jarvis' help, she did manage to get her suit out. It wasn't a problem getting it to the condo. There may have been a very short fast flight to the roof of the building.

Dad said she couldn't use the suit (the short flight wasn't using it per se, it was transporting it), but he didn't say anything about working on it, or building herself a new suit. So she locked herself away in the lab and started working on her old suit and started building a new one. She needed to be prepared for the next time Temujin showed his face.

She slept an hour here and there. An hour of sleep allowed her to rest, but it wasn't enough time for the nightmares to start. As usual she lost track of time and days. Mom delivered food on a regular basis. If she hadn't, Anya would have forgotten to eat.

Anya stared blankly at the new set of boots. There was something she wanted to do, but she couldn't think at the moment.

Anya grinned. "That's what makes this place great. I think I'm going to have the Led Zeppelin. Pulled pork on a burger. It doesn't get any better or artery clogging than that."

Blink. Ah yes, human anatomy. Cholesterol and other such chemical things. "I still think I need to try the Plague Bearer, after the BBQ pork fries if you'd like to split them with me?"

"Sure. I love those. This place is heaven when it comes to food that is so bad for you."

Anya folded her menu and laid it on the table.

"So, how are you and Eliza doing?"

"To the best of my knowledge there is no food that is bad for me. Just new experiences. It certainly smells delicious, and I look forward to trying to discern their spice blends so I can try and reproduce some of their sauces and recipes. And I believe we're doing well. She spent the holiday with her extended family, I believe, but I'm definitely hoping to find something she'll enjoy for New Years. I've been trying to research possibilities, so suggestions are welcome."

"Lucky you," she said. "Us frail humans have to watch cholesterol and whatnot." She smiled. "Good. I talked to her about what happened between us. She was a little upset at first, but then seemed to be okay with it."

Anya thought about New Year's. "There's a ton to do on New Year's. There's the party in Times Square, but it's always very crowded. A great place is the Sydney Harbor Bridge and the fireworks they put on. There's ice skating in Rockefeller center. Watching fireworks from the top of the Statue of Liberty. To start."

"Hmm, any idea what she might like? I'm still learning... flawed comparisons and all. Though the top of the Statue has some promise. Provided a means for her to breathe, I'm also curious about finding a place in the lower atmosphere where we can see the fireworks displays of most of the Eastern seaboard. There's also a matter of finding dinner. Are you and Steve planning anything?"

"Give me a little time and I can come up with more suggestions. My brain is kind of fried from being in the lab." Anya's mouth twisted up in thought. It was an expression her mother said reminded her of Tony. "A breathing apparatus is easily provided. Dinner is the easy part. If you trust me enough, I can make arrangements and you'll get all the credit." She smiled. She loved planning things.

Anya shrugged. "I'm leaving New Year's plans to him. I'd be totally happy curled up on a couch and watching the ball come down on television."

"I'm not certain how comfortable she'd be, though the sight might be worth it. In any case, if you'd like, feel free to make the arrangements. You and your sister seem to share tastes in many things, so I am certain she'd enjoy anything you might plan."

"I know the perfect place for dinner and the perfect arrangements." She was already planning and had that look on her face. "Leave it to me. You take care of after dinner activities."

"Very well, I'll come up with something then, and leave the rest to you." Much as a plotting Stark was a dangerous thing, he trusted her with this.

Anya was more than happy to throw the Stark name around if it would help her sister have a nice New Year's. "How's the team?" She had to ask. She missed being an Avenger and missed her teammates. She saw them, but it wasn't quite the same.

The waitress came over and Anya placed her order.

"Everyone has been reasonably well. A lot of the focus has been on preparing for the holidays, and the chaos of inviting family in or people going back home. Everyone seems to have recovered reasonably well from the encounter with the Deviants as well."

Anya nodded. "Good." She had only heard bits and pieces of what happened, but not many details. She couldn't even read the reports. "I miss it and everyone." It was genetic that she liked kicking ass.

"Everyone has missed your presence as well. My cousin and her boyfriend are being considered for reserves to bolster our strength somewhat, but they are not around much. What are your plans for the immediate future?"

"That's good. Kal, right? And Murdock. They'd make good additions to the team."

"Spending as much time as I can with Steve and then back to school. Not much else on my plate."

"That seems a reasonable plan, and should let you focus on school. I will caution you, your father may be in quite a state around the New Years holiday. There is some rumor the Defenders will be visiting. And yes, Kal and Jack Murdock. At least temporarily. I do not think my cousin wishes to do any more super heroing than is immediately necessary, however."

"Dad needs to be shaken up a bit. Him and Mom have gotten all domestic and to be honest, it's quite scary. The Defenders visiting will be good for him and it will be good to see them again."

Anya nodded. "It isn't a full time thing for some people. She wasn't really born into it either. She had a lot of time away from the spandex and cape set."

"That she did, and her mother always wanted her to have something approaching a normal life, as much as she understands such a thing."

Anya nodded. "Dad tries to get me to be normal, but I resist. Normal is boooooring. Kicking butt is much more fun and satisfying." Anya grinned.

"And you're good at it. As I recall, your dad had trouble even trying to be normal too long as well, during his brief retirements."

"Thanks," she blushed. "I know. Which is why when he starts in on the normal stuff I remind him that he was never normal, so I have no hope in hell of being normal."

He pauses in their discussion long enough to order and let her do likewise.

"I'm certain, normal or not, your father is proud of you and the path you've chosen. He's careful about who he lets take up his legacy."

"I know. I always try to make him proud." Sometimes she failed and usually in a big way. "Of course he's proud that I want to go into the family business. Not that he wouldn't be if I chose something else, but it means a lot to him to see the Stark legacy carried on."

Anya smiled. "Could be. We're both workaholics and stubborn bastards. Some things breed true."
