Vincent had been the first human she had been attracted to (she'd previously nursed crushes on both the Vision and fictional robots such as Johnny 5), and though she no longer felt quite the same way about him, she was glad for the time they'd had.

"I think I shall," she told Vincent. "And you may be right," she added for Mac.

She blinked for a moment. As far as she knew, Vincent did not possess many--if any--male friends. What had brought about this new behavior?

	Mac looks to Vincent and smiles to show that he is very, very obviously just making a harmless joke. "Wow, you're still speaking to me this time? Will wonders never cease and all that. Sure, if I'm not busy. You apparently have my number and address." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vincent smiles and nods. "Thank you." He has an awkward moment looking between them, before getting up. "I'll leave you two then. Good day." He heads toward his room to grab some fresh linens before hitting the shower. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am glad to see your day with Vincent went well," Andrea says. "I remember well Mr. Grimm's stories about how he and Franklin used to try and chase you away from Valeria." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If there's a statute of limitations on Junior High Hurt feelings, there's totally one on elementary school stupidity," Mac says, grinning. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great," he says, smiling. "I think the ice cream shop a couple blocks away is still open." And as his coat comes back on, they'll head out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Once Andrea is out of the room, HERBIE floats in, his diode eyes seeming to regard Mac almost malevolently. "Greetings... Mackenzie Rider." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2010-12-17 01:59 am UTC (link)
	"Okay. Don't worry. I know what's good for me." How odd. He didn't get the treat her right speech from the teammate -- whom she used to go on dates with -- but from the house robot, apparently. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	HERBIE fixed him with his stare for a moment longer. "Yes. Watching..." With that, HERBIE floats off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
