Dinner
Natasha skipped reservations and went for a place that was more casual. One of their favorite places was Big Nick's and it was the perfect place for a casual dinner for mother and son. She sent him a text with the time and a message to meet a big Nick's. She was in the mood for a burger anyway and Big Nick's had great burgers.

She left a note for Tony and James to let them know where she was. Since telling Tony about her pregnancy, he had been overprotective and almost as bad as a mother hen.

She arrived early of course and grabbed a booth. Water was brought to the table and she passed the time by sipping it.

	"No, not yet. Right now you and Tony are the only ones who know. Tony is going to tell your sister and I'm going to tell James and Eliza." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nodded. It was nice to be in on something at the beginning for a change instead of catching up after everyone else. "Okay. I wanted to make sure. It's your business, I'm not going to say anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's still your business." It was her news; he wasn't going to talk about it. It wasn't his place to say anything until she'd told everyone who needed to hear it. "You can tell him I'm sufficiently threatened so he doesn't feel the need to have one of talks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I will tell him to spare you a lecture," she said with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Which wouldn't mean a whole lot if Dad decided he needed a reminder. Logan was adamant that Misha would treat his mother with the respect due to her. Respect had been the earliest lesson. "The effort will be appreciated. You know how he is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know how he is," she said with an understanding smile. "I'll remind him to take it easy on you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Now I'll sound like I asked my mommy to get me out of trouble with my daddy." He laughed a little. "When he lectures me for my own good, it helps to remember this wasn't something that came natural to him either. If I can be half the man he is, I'll be happy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Natasha nodded and picked at some french fries. "Your father is a good man," she said. "He always has been." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He always thought there was a 'but' in there and he never pursued it. That was a can of childhood worms that didn't need to be opened. "Anyway, I can tell you what he'll say. He'll say to leave me to him, he'll take care of things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well yes, but if he didn't say that we'd think he was a Skrull or something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2010-02-03 07:35 am UTC (link)
	"Shh, don't say that!" He grinned. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-03 07:36 am UTC (link)
	Natasha had to chuckle. "I know we joke about it, but if it ever happened." She shook her head. She didn't want to think about that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He'd been in the life long enough to know what could happen, but David hadn't and one of Misha's other standing Dad orders was to look after his brother in case the unthinkable happened. Misha had learned a lot from the old man, but until that time came he didn't know if he could best a fighter like Wolverine without actually killing him. There were orders on that as well. Not too many kids would have been drilled by their own parents on the best way to put them down if necessary. Misha didn't think Mom knew about that, but he never could tell.

"We have to joke about it. Otherwise we'd obsess about it and that's never good."

	"I know," she said. Sometimes she wondered how people in the life stayed sane when they knew all the possible bad stuff that could happen. Then again, they all had to be a little insane to do what they did in the first place. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What do you think about the registration bill noise running around?" he asked abruptly. The professor talked about it, but Misha only half listened in the past. He was paying more attention since their encounter the previous fall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-04 09:03 am UTC (link)
	It wasn't the first time something like this has been brought up. "It will either go away or it could get ugly. I've never liked the idea of registration. I understand the desire for it, but I don't like it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2010-02-04 09:13 am UTC (link)
	Misha nodded. "If it comes to registration, I'm not inclined to submit to it. The professor talks about public examples, but I don't remember many of those that worked out well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-04 09:20 am UTC (link)
	She nodded. "Good." The last thing she wanted was to have any of her children being controlled by a government. Friendly or otherwise. "I'm hoping this one will go away like the others." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2010-02-04 09:28 am UTC (link)
	"I've been thinking about options," he said. "I could always preempt the bill and join S.HI.E.L.D. Leave the country and study somewhere else. Except leaving feels like I'd be running away and abandoning the institute." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-04 09:36 am UTC (link)
	"No one would blame you for leaving," she said. "I know it would feel that way, but if you feel like you have to do it, do it. Though they shouldn't be able to touch you. Not with your immunity as a representative of the Russian government and the royal family." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2010-02-04 09:42 am UTC (link)
	"That would probably require that I renounce citizenship completely. The US could deport me and make the choice easy." He leaned on an elbow. No formal manners required at Big Nick's. "I would blame me for leaving. They're my family." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-04 09:46 am UTC (link)
	"I wouldn't put it past them," she said. Technically she wasn't a citizen and could be deported. "You know I still don't like the idea of you joining SHIELD." "I know and I know you wouldn't leave them." She knew what family meant to him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2010-02-04 10:00 am UTC (link)
	"You've been vocal about SHIELD, but I think that between them and enforced government service, SHIELD would be the better deal. Dad wants me to take his place someday and I figure that Nick would be part of it too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-02-04 10:03 am UTC (link)
	"I know, but it would be the lesser of the two evils in this case," she said. Her mouth twisted up a bit. "I want you to do what you want to do with your life. Not what your father or even I want you to do. It's your life and you should make your own decisions." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
