25 Unicorn Street, Friday Evening

[on_her_korhal]

So.

She had some food in the fridge. And drinks. Non-alcoholic drinks.

So.

She had a couch. And a record player. And--

A birthday party, apparently. Maybe. She wasn't sure.

"I wasn't stupid, I promise," he said. "I helped and I met a hermit and he gave us information. And I helped."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I know."

In more ways than he was probably aware of. Sometimes it was hard to stay angry with the constant buzzing in her head. "Guess what. I helped, too." She sounded more amused than anything else.

"Where'd you go?" Lee asked curiously. "Who'd you beat up?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Dean Jones' London." Another sip of her insanely fizzy drink. "A couple of people." She grinned.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Beat them up good?" Lee asked, grinning back. "Are they still walking?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"They weren't after I was through with them," she said, with a smirk-- "But Dean Jones said no casualties."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Nice job," Lee said and meant it. "How was London? I don't know where that is."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Me neither," she admitted, "It was a little lo-tech."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Africa was sandy," he told her. "Sandy and hot and the sun was huge."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"London was mostly cold and wet," Kerrigan returned, "Lot of back alleys. Kind of reminded me of what Korhal must've been like."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Is it not like that now?" Lee wondered.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"They bombed it to the ground, so I'm figuring not," she said, dryly.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Sorry," Lee said sheepishly. "Didn't know. Caprica's a lot like Africa except there's more...people, I guess. Buildings and schools. It's not spread out."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Africa doesn't read like it's got a lot of cities to begin with," Kerrigan replied, sipping her drink thoughtfully.

In as much as one could look thoughtful while drinking something neon blue. "Caprica sounds more like Tarsonis."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Yeah?" Lee took a sip of his own drink. "Have you ever been to Tarsonis?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

She hesitated. "...During Christmas break." Or whatever the hell that holiday was called.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Not a good break?" Lee asked, noticing the hesitation.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I--" Kerrigan shot him a look. "Don't drink too much of that. You'll get a sugar rush and then who has to scrape you off the ceiling?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"I don't get sugar rushes," he said, glancing at her. "Nice avoidance tactic."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Shut up." She pushed away from the counter. "That stuff's pretty much liquid sugar."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"You avoided the question," he said. "I just wanted to point that out to you."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Consider it pointed out," she muttered, annoyed. "What of it?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Why are you avoiding the question?" Lee wondered.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Because it's none of your business." Her eyes narrowed. "What are you, a detective now?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"No," he snapped. "I was just curious because, hey, I happen to actually like you and if it upset you, I might be a little concerned. Sorry."
