Autumn had come to Westchester county in New York. The leaves were changing colors and the air had gotten considerably cooler. Cait loved autumn because it meant pumpkins and baking. Cait had been up before the sun and had started on her yearly batch of pumpkin muffins, pumpkin pies and pumpkin spice cookies. In addition to the pumpkin items, Cait also whipped up batches of apple spice muffins and apple crisp.

The kitchen was warm and filled with the smell of the baked goods. Cait had made enough for the residents of Xavier's and put together a care package for Corey and the Champions. Irina was going to stop by later to pick it up for them.

Cait worked on cleaning up the kitchen.

Anya finally had a long weekend where she didn't have to be traveling somewhere in the world for Renaissance Tech and the Boston area had been quiet and didn't need Thunderbolts intervention. It meant that she had some time to head to New York and spend some time with the family. It felt like forever since she had spent some time with her family.

After a few days it was quite clear that Mom and Dad had their hands full with Nick and needed a break. Anya volunteered to babysit. Though she wasn't going to do it alone. Even she knew she would need backup so she called His Highness Prince Dork. Not only would he have her back, but it would give the three of them some quality sibling bonding time.

A day at the Bronx Zoo would provide just that.

Kalypso would admit that she wasn't the best hand to hand combatant. She relied more on her Eternal abilities to get her through a situation. As it were she was learning that she needed to not rely on her illusions and abilities so much. She had been spending more time in the training room and when schedule and time permitted taking lessons from any of the adult Avengers who would teach her.

Today she was in the training room practicing against some artificial opponents. She was holding her own against them for the time being. She landed a punch on one of the robots and it crumpled into a heap.
