open_flame Luke: *rawkin day FOUR of not having to have a bath! Maybe having a busy dad and absent mom is a good thing! 8D* #bump
Liz: *grabs him by the shoulders whilst wrinkling her nose* Luke, you smell!
Luke: D: No I don't! *totes used Febreze on his shirt*
Liz: *takes her hand off his shirt and frowns as she inspects her hand* You're STICKY! What have you been doing?!
Luke: *thinks about it* Um... *shrugs* I got chased by this Unseelie dude... *but he totally changed his pants cuz he peed them*
Liz: *jawdrop* What Unseelie dude? Where? When? HOW!?!? *hello panic!*
Luke: This big guy. He was clawing through concrete to get to me!!!
Liz: Clawing? Like a werewolf or what? *puts her hand on his shoulder again hesitantly* Are you OK?
Luke: Nooo, he was really big! *arms above his head, clearly getting excited about this* And he had metal nails!!
Liz: *WTF face* Like Logan or different. *looks around cautiously* When did this happen?
Luke: *thiiinks about it* Two days ago? Kinda like logan, but only his nails. Oh, maybe his teeth too? *fuzzy on details* The gob squad saved me!! *face falls* But they're still not talking with me.
Liz: The gobs saved you? *Liz can't help smiling at that* Merl too?
Luke: I dunno! There was this big cloud of shadow and they grabbed me and next thing I know I'm in my room back in BPRD HQ! *uh oh. he just implied he'd been off-base...*
Liz: *eyebrow* Luke...lets' go for ice cream. *totally gonna bribe him for information*
Luke: Okay! *Totally up for ice cream ANYTIME for ANY reason!* Can I have tiger stripe?!
Liz: *blinks* Um...i donno what that is but whatever they have you can get. Two scoops even, with a sugar cone.
Luke: *gleeeeee* C'mon! Hurry up! *pulls on her hand* *he had four donuts for breakfast, snatched from the meeting room...*
Liz: *she can tell, what with there being sprinkles on him* Slow down, kid! Ice cream will be there all day. *takes him to the SUV*
Luke: Can I ride shotgun?!
Liz: Uh....*shifty eyes, not entirely safe but...* Sure, I guess. It's not too far. *opens the door for him*
Luke: *GLEE* *crawls up into the front seat* *WAITAMINIT! Why is Liz being so nice...? homg! Is she taking him to an orphanage?!*
Liz: *Because she's NICE, duh!* Seatbelt, Luke. And try and look tall, I don't wanna get pulled over for having a kid in the front.
Luke: *gets on his knees then belts up* *sits up as tall as he can* *bouncy* I like SUVs! They're like star ships!!
Liz: *chuckles* Oh honey, it's just a big car. You'd freak out on a real starship, trust me. *ice cream road trip is a go!*
Luke: /You've/ been in a /real/ starship? *SHINY EYES*
Liz: *shifty eyes* Yeah. Sorta. It's not really a STAR ship though. More like a time...space...box...thingy. *shrugs like it's NBD*
Luke: That's. So. Coooooool! Was it your husband's?
Liz: Jack's? *smirk, @captain_flyboy would be -such- a geek if he had a TARDIS* No, it's a friend of ours...his. It's the Doctor's.
Luke: Ohhhhh. An alien Doctor?
Liz: *hmmms. That is actually very accurate* Yeah, just like that. An alien Doctor. He and Jack go way back.
Luke: Did they go to alien university together?
Liz: *shakes head, finds a parking spot to get ice cream* No. Jack met him after he was a Time Agent, but before he was...well... before he became the way he is now, with the no dying thing. *not going to spill details of the hubby's history kid, sorry*
Luke: Huh. So when you married him, 'until death do you part' is pretty much YOUR death? *slides out on his belly so he can reach*
Liz: *narrow eyes. She'd tell you ALL about how @captain_flyboy and her were in the future, when she'd been dead for YEARS. What with the very much still in love-ness and on a regular basis sex and couple type stuff they were doing when Jack wasn't teaching her how to disembowel malevolently aligned magical beings, but you're seven, Luke. So she can't* Yup, I guess so.
Luke: Ugh. I'm sorry. *he really is, that's a sad thought* Ooooph. *closes the SUV door* 'member said TWO scoops anna sugar cone!
Liz: *she looks sad then* I'll just have to make the most of the time I have, right? Time is fleeting and you never know what day will be your last. *offers him her hand* I know what I said, not gonna break my promise.
Luke: *holds her hand - totes knows what she means about having a last day* 'k, good. What are you gonna have?!
Liz: It is good. *squeezes his hand and smiles* Mint chocolate chip, same as always. So...what the heck is Tiger Stripe?
Luke: Ummmm.. *looks at selection* I wanna scoop of rocky road anna scoop of bubblegum rainbow!
Liz: You sure you want to mix those together?
Luke: *nodnodnodnod* With sprinkles? *hopeful look* *he likes to get as much flavour as he can out of his treats!*
Liz: What, no hot fudge? *starts to order* You want a waffle cone Luke or just plain sugar? *semi devious grin*
Luke: Omg! Yes please! Hot fudge! Ummmm... *waffles hold more but sugars are so good....* I want.... WAFFLE!
Liz: *grins and orders a small dish for herself and a MASSIVE cone for him like this http://digs.by/jfA35C * Anything else, Luke?
Luke: *SHINY EYES* It's... boootiful... *is in love with his ice cream cone*
Liz: *snickers* Don't eat too fast now. *nods to a booth towards the back* You want to eat inside or outside?
Luke: Outside! *just for the ~novelty~ of it* *runs for the door then slows down when he realizes his cone is at risk*
Liz: *she runs a little bit too to keep up* You're in a better mood, aren't you? *smiles at him*
Luke: Yeah! They might not be talking to me, but at least my gob squad still loves me!
Liz: Oh, I think they're warming up. They're a little freaked out. Merl could tell I was...*wait, she wasn't technically gone a year to everyone on Earth, only five minutes * He could tell I changed all of the sudden, too. But he's getting better.
Luke: *nodnod* I was thinking I could maybe pray to their god? Cuz he's the one who made them like me anyways. *7yo logic*
Liz: *small smile* Maybe. *tries to use her spoon to steal some of his hot fudge whilst trying to get information out of him about the guy who tried to hurt him* So...how come you're all smelly and sticky? You should have all kinds of clean clothes.
Luke: I've been staying at HQ in my old room! Nathan's all busy with the war and stuff and Ames is gone so it's easy to hide.
Liz: Hide. *totally steals some hot fudge* Why are you hiding?
Luke: *shruuuugs* *doesn't mind her eating his hot fudge* I dunno...
Liz: Well most people have a reason to hide, don't they? *totally casual*
Luke: *shifty eyes* Mebbe... *might have been curious how long he could go unnoticed*
Liz: *attempts to steal some of the waffle cone* Soooooo... Why are you hiding then?
Luke: Big scary guy tried to kill me? *not because he needs to know how long of lead time he'd get if he can away to find Ames*
Liz: *slow nod* Yeah. That. *drops her voice a bit* Where were you when that happened, Luke?
Luke: *shrinks down in his seat*
Liz: *scoots a little closer* Luke...you can tell me. You're not gonna get in trouble. I -promise-. *holds out her pinky finger*
Luke: I was in town...
Liz: ...town? Honey, this is Newark. It's a CITY. *frowns*
Luke: *noms his ice cream*
Liz: eyebrow* Luke... -where- in town were you when that unseelie guy tried to get you? *firmly, like she's getting mad*
Luke: D: I... I was just... I was looking for Ames. *teeny voice*
Liz: *frowns, because she's pretty sure Ames wouldn't stick around* Luke, you should have taken someone with you.
Luke: Who would go with me?
Liz: I would have, if you'd have asked me to. Just because we suspended her doesn't mean we wanted her to run away
Luke: *suspicious* And you wouldn't have just told me to calm down and go take a nap or something?
Liz: ...not unless you started acting like a seven year old who needed a nap
Luke: *frown* Everyone seems to assume I am.
Liz: I'm not everyone, Luke. I...I know you're not -really- a little kid, not like my kids.
Luke: *hangs his head* I hate it when I can't control myself and it seems like I am.
Liz: *reaches for his hand* Trevor told me you came to see him after he got back. Did you get to talk to Abe about this yet?
Luke: *stuffs his sticky hands in his pockets, grumpy* Yeah. But Abe and Sammy won't help me unless I can get dad's permission to go.
Liz: *pulls back, frowning* And your dad's a little bit busy, isn't he? He gets back when most people are already asleep.
Luke: Yeah. *eats the last of his ice cream... seeing as he had the cone lying on the table* But, I can't be mad at him. I'm not /really/ his kid and he's got important stuff to do.
Liz:*frowns even more* Luke, you -are- his kid, just as much as the twins and Stella are my kids. Maybe he doesn't realize he's - not giving you the attention you need with everything that's going on with your mom. *yes, she called Amy Luke's mom*
Luke: It's okay. I can look after myself. I just try to stay out of everyone's way but I really DO need permission to go look for-a cure. Or, at least, official mission status or something so I can requisition resources and personnel.
Liz: *eyebrow* That it? Shit, I can do that. We would just need a senior agent to be with you, that's all.
Luke: Really?! Abe wouldn't do it unless I got my parents' permission, first. *puppy eyessss*
Liz: *leans a little closer and whispers* So we tell Abe you got his OK. I'm your Dad's second in command, that means I can make important decisions he would when he's away and not able to do it, right?
Luke: *GLEEE* Really?! You'd do that for me?! *here have a tiny, dirty boy hugging you*
Liz: Sure. *Liz grins and hugs back* Jack took me on a mission when I was kid so why not?
Luke: Yessss!! Thanks, Liz! 8D
Liz: *smiles wider and kisses the top of his head* I'll get the paperwork in order when we get back to the BPRD, OK?
Liz: *grabs him by the shoulders whilst wrinkling her nose* Luke, you smell!
Luke: D: No I don't! *totes used Febreze on his shirt*
Liz: *takes her hand off his shirt and frowns as she inspects her hand* You're STICKY! What have you been doing?!
Luke: *thinks about it* Um... *shrugs* I got chased by this Unseelie dude... *but he totally changed his pants cuz he peed them*
Liz: *jawdrop* What Unseelie dude? Where? When? HOW!?!? *hello panic!*
Luke: This big guy. He was clawing through concrete to get to me!!!
