'I think I should know how to make love to something innocent without leaving my fingerprints'
Minnie had been running countless background checks, but her hands were empty as she knocked quietly but distinctly on Julian's door late one morning. Anything her Julian might need to know was in her head.

She'd already knocked when she noticed the colors bleeding through the door didn't seem right. Was he not there? And whose was the pattern that was?

This is...awkward. Julian return the kiss, albeit uneasily.

"Lisa, Minnie is important to me. She's been my friend since I was very young, before I lost my father." Julian says.

"Minnie, Lisa and I have been seeing each other for a bit. She's the only person on the team who knows what I can /really/ do." Julian says.

"You two know me better than most. I'd prefer it if this didn't become an awkward situation." he says simply.

	Minnie turns from turning to leave, straightens, and smiles weakly. "Then I'd prefer if it did get awkward either." She nods to Lisa. "I'm glad you've been there for him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lisa nods, smiling to Minnie. "I'm glad about that too." It's an honest smile. Then she turns to Julian and just shrugs. "I'm just gonna drag it out in the open... I don't get the 'jealous' vibe from her, but something about being in the same room as me seems to... confuse her?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Lisa...she /is/ still standing here." Julian says lightly.

"Minnie and I have a very special relationship. She was the first person I showed what I could do and she got me through the first days I was learning to deal with this, before...I was taught how to control it." Julian says simply.

Lisa and Minnie both have the same stories, only Minnie has more information than Lisa does regarding Julian's mother. Mother found Minnie useful, but he wasn't sure he wanted to know what Selene thought about Lisa.

The idea was mildly terrifying, even to him.

"Lisa, I'd also ask that you don't sample from Minnie ever again. She tends to be protective of me." Julian says.

"I'm /aware/. I want this hashed out before it becomes a thing." Lisa responds just as lightly.

She listens to what Julian's saying, and how he says it. There's something else there, but this isn't the time or place to ask for more. She nods as he concludes.

"Of course." She hesitates for a moment, then snaps her fingers to punctuate her next gesture, letting go of the power.

She, as a long-standing rule, hates letting go of a power that she could keep holding. She shudders slightly in dissatisfaction as the sensation leaves her, and the world comes back into focus.

Minnie's feeling absolutely mortified She'd acted like a little fool, she was being talked about to her Julian as if she were an errant child, and she couldn't see.

And then Julian's calm explanation, the way he stands up for her, makes her feel a bit better, and then thank the goddess, she has her eyes all the way back, and she does her best to get her tone professional again.

"I'm sorry about that, Lisa. I was a little confused, simply because Julian's never seen anyone so apparently steadily before, but I certainly didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."

	"I'm sure no harm was done, ladies. Really, the fault here is mine. I should have anticipated that Minnie might come by if she couldn't reach me and would meet you, Lisa. I apologize to both of you for making this awkward." Julian says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lisa walks up and offers a hand to Minnie. "Let's just chalk this up to each of us having a unique relationship with Julian, and try to go from there." She shakes her hand and nods to the stuff Julian brought back. "Breakfast?" She does move to stand next to him once again afterwards, however. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course it's all right, Julian," she assures him hurriedly. It was so sweet of him to cover for her mistake. She shakes Lisa's hand. "To be frank, I could murder a bagel." And she'll get one. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm glad we could work this out without further issue." Julian says, smiling at both women. A thought crosses his mind just then, as he looks between Minnie and Lisa. He smiles to himself and then sets it aside for the time being. There may be time to address such a thing later. "Please eat, both of you. There's plenty." (Reply to this)(Parent)
