[crimsonblade]

I appreciate the fact that you're trying to be...not really supportive, but at least not dismissive of everything. But, Anya, you haven't even gotten to know Fayt or his parents yet.

[strangelyliteral]

I don't know, sis. Do you really think we ought to - mix? Mingle? I just wouldn't know what to say.

[crimsonblade]

Well, you know, Fayt does have an education, and I'm sure that Souji would love to talk about...housewife things. [What does Nel know about that stuff? This is all new to her too.] They're human beings you know.

[strangelyliteral]

Yes, they're humans. And we're Starks. It's completely different.

[crimsonblade]

[She bit back a sigh at her sister's tone.] You could at least try?

Is there a real reason you came today or are you just here to judge me again?

[strangelyliteral]

"Hmmph. I just came to see how you were doing, as I said. But I can leave now, now that I've seen it all."

[crimsonblade]

[She's oddly touched. She and Anya weren't really all that close, but the fact that her sister came to a side of town that she'd never been before to check on her is something a bit out of character. Something like real siblings do for one another.]

T-thanks for coming, Anya. As you can see, I'm alive and happy. [She needs to change the conversation.] Fayt and I will be visiting Tony and Pepper tonight so that Billy and Gai can meet their new uncle. Just...so you know.

[strangelyliteral]

"Really? Maybe Jack and I should pop over there. Just for a little moral support."

[crimsonblade]

Support for which sibling, hm? [She gives her sister a wry smile.] It doesn't matter. I'm sure Tony would like to have Jack there anyway.

[strangelyliteral]

As the middle sibling it is my job to keep the family together.

[crimsonblade]

I wouldn't know about that, as the youngest. I was under the impression that my job was to make you and Tony as uncomfortable as possible.

[strangelyliteral]

And Tony has his own... thing. [She waves a hand.]

[crimsonblade]

Anya, Tony's whole life could be summarized as a "thing". [Because, you know, he's so responsible.]

[strangelyliteral]

Exactly. He doesn't make it easy for us.

[crimsonblade]

[She knows that Anya is serious about this, because, well, that's just how her sister is, but the thought of Tony making anyone's life easier is too amusing for words.]

No, he certainly doesn't. So, I'll see you and Jack tonight then at Tony's?

[strangelyliteral]

You can count on it.

[Unlike any guarantees her husband made on his cars.]
