The house was steadily becoming emptier. It hadn't been very full to begin with, but as she slowly pawned off, packed, or otherwise removed the few belongings that had been around, it was...

It seemed to be getting bigger.

Now, Kerrigan sat quietly on the couch, Mustang-the-kitten making a home of her lap, and stared at the wall.

"Kids everywhere," Kerrigan said, shooting Lauren a look across the kitchen doorway. ...Yeah. "Crap. Stay here. Lauren's-- mostly harmless."

"He reads my mind. Need to hide for the weekend." If this was anything like last year the kids would be gone soon enough. She glanced at the girl. "Harmless?"

"She mostly just plays with the cat," Kerrigan said. She was-- nervous, but it wasn't showing at all. In fact, she stood straighter than she usually did, shoulders locked. "And I don't think she's psionic."

She hadn't picked up much from Lauren, being too preoccupied with her own problems. And Kerrigan kept her secrets. "Who's her father?" she asked.

"No father," Kerrigan muttered, rolling her eyes towards the ceiling. "Just a fun trick of nature." She let the memory of Dean Jones coming by with the girl drift by idly, focusing not on details but people, places.

River blinked, then nodded. Perhaps she should be thankful that she hadn't ended up with a child with Adah. On the other hand, Lee?! She shook her head. "Can I stay here?"

"Sure."

Kerrigan blinked. Just the once, really, a tiny thing. "Always."

River smiled back. Thank you. She sighed in relief and sank down on a chair.

"Like I said." She threw Lauren another look. I don't know what to do with her.

As if River would know. She will need food eventually. And some place to sleep. Otherwise leave her to the kitten.

"She's sleeping here. I've got food. That's not the point."

She opened her mouth.

It kept like that for a little while.

"I don't know."

She will know what she needs. And she'll be gone in a few days. River curled up on her chair.
