I had a couple of interesting conversations.

My mom walked into my room when I wasn't quite dressed. That sparked an argument.
Me: ...!
Her: You have more scars.
Me: Can we talk about this later? Please? I'm. Not. Dressed.
Her: *taking her time* You have a lot of scars.
Me: You wouldn't know that if you knocked.
Her: We need to talk about this.
I should have been more respectful but I was pretty frazzled. On the same note, I think I'm the only person who'd wear a sweatshirt in July. I hope that she forgot that she wants to talk about this.

And with my sister. She was tearing into Joey again and I started yelling at her to back off. I stepped between them.

She said she'd beat the hell out of me if I didn't back off.

I didn't back off.

She didn't touch me.

I'm happy.

"I do."

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

Good. *smiles*

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She smiled back and nodded.

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

How have you been otherwise?

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"I've been okay. You?"

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

Much better, once I stopped being a shark. *smile* I got back home and found my family all right. I brought my daughter in the Nexus a few nights ago. *mouth twitches a little unhappily*

"'M glad. But...what happened with your daughter? Is she okay?"

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

Yes, Lauren's fine. It's just... there's an alternate of her father in the Nexus, and he refuses to believe he's her dad. It's very complicated.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Oh? That's unfortunate. 'M sorry; it does sound awful complicated."

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

It is. *sighs* And he's being very rude about it all. But whatever. You haven't seen Lauren yet, have you?

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She shook her head. "I sure haven't. But I'm sure she's beautiful."

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

*smile* She really is. If I bring her in again, I'll try to show her to you.

"I'd love t' meet her. How old is she?"

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

Three months. Just got here. *happy smile*

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Awww!" she crooned. "I can't wait t' meet her."

[lexagoblin.livejournal.com]

I'm sure she'll be very pleased to meet you, too.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She smiled brightly. "This'll be great."
