Boredom breeds bravery.
She'd been there a couple days now, tucked away in 'her room'. Food had been brought for her and Andrea-robot and touchy-Vincent had both tried to engage her in conversation, but she had nothing to talk about. All she wanted to know was when she'd be able to leave and why they kept saying she was related to someone she wasn't. They'd also told her she was free to 'move about the building' as she wanted, something she wasn't so sure about.

But, after the second day in the room, she'd gotten curious. Opening the door, she waited for alarms to sound, or feet to come rushing to put her back in. Nothing. Peeking her head around the frame, she saw no one, heard no one. Which made her a little braver; pushing the door flat open and standing there expectantly. Nope. Nothing. Well. We'd see about that. Taking a decisive step out of the room, she stuck her chin out, picking a direction to at random and marching down it.

She came to a room, one with couches and wide glass windows. Going over to one of the windows, she stood with her hands pressed against it, looking out at the city below her. So busy, like little ants. With the insulation of the building she couldn't hear the cacophony below, but she remembered it from her brief flight over. Busy, loud and chaotic. There didn't seem to be any order or regulations to anything they did. It was somewhat frightening, but also something that piqued her curiosity; nudging at memories long buried and locked away.

There were plenty, enough so that Evie was tempted to go back for seconds. One of the perks of being held by these people; she could actually feel full for once.

Vincent isn't shy about stuffing himself. He'd been practicing his pact-bond with Tyr lately, and the resulting physical strain left him ravenous.

"There is more, if you would like, Evie," Andrea told her. "I can also make eggs, or bacon if you would like?"

She shook her head, finishing the last of the fluffy goodness on her plate. "Pancakes are good."

"Pancakes are very good, but bacon is amazing, in a different way. Pancakes are sweet, bacon is savory. It would be good for you to try both, but no pressure." Vincent tries to be helpful.

"Then please, help yourself to as many pancakes as you would like," Andrea said. "I made a large stack."

She rose. "Though I do believe I will make some bacon for myself and Vincent. Would you like eggs too, Vincent?"

Before the offer could be rescinded, Evie snuck over and piled a couple more pancakes on her plate, mimicking Andrea's buttering and syruping technique of before. Then she went back to her corner of the kitchen, digging into her breakfast with glee. Yes, Evie was now a firm fan of pancakes.

"Yes, please." Vincent decides to just carry on normal, since Evie doesn't seem eager to jump into the conversation.

"How are you and MacKenzie?"

"We are doing very well, thank-you," Andrea replied, treading slightly carefully. Vincent was still a friend, despite not being her boyfriend any longer.

"Eagerly awaiting the start of the newest baseball season."

Baseball. She'd heard of that. The guards talked about it all the time. That and football. Eating more slowly now, she watched the pair converse. There was an as yet unseen 'MacKenzie' floating around somewhere. She'd have to keep her eye out.

"I'm glad he makes you happy." A pause. "Let him know that I'd like to play basketball sometime, if he's still interested."

"I will pass that along," Andrea agreed. "And you? Are you seeing anyone?"

Her chewing slowed even more. There was something... else going on here. She didn't have a clue what the 'else' was... but it was there.

Briefly, something unusual flickers over Vincent's face, before the expression is replaced by more eating and casual contentment.

"No, I'm still single. I'm fine, though."

She... had not asked if he was fine. Vincent, she admitted, did seem somewhat lonely. Perhaps she could do something about that. She had friends in her classes with whom she could set him up.

"More juice, Evie?" she asked.

"Please." She nodded, watching Vincent as she popped in another mouthful. People were weird. No one meant half of what they said, or said what they meant.

Vincent means what he says. Absolutely.

Damn irreconcilable differences.

"We will need to check with Kristoff, to see if that is a good idea," Andrea told him, "but I do not see why not if gives his okay."

"Outside?" She hadn't been outside since... well, since her little flight from the institute. And before that? It had been a while.

"Yes, Central Park is outside. Kristoff doesn't let me experiment with Pym Particles enough to fit it inside the building." Vincent jokes.

...Jokes? Really, Vincent?

"Yes," Andrea said quickly. "Provided we get Kristoff's okay, I believe the fresh air would do you well."

A smile began to appear, Evie liking the sound of that, a lot. Then she sobered. ""What kind of collar?" She was hoping it wasn't one of those electrified ones. The guards had been a little trigger happy with those.

Vincent cocks his head, then frowns in comprehension. He softens the gaze before he speaks to her.

"Evie, I promise that no-one is ever going to collar you again."

"This is no cage, Evie," Andrea said. "And no collars."

She'd believe it when she saw it, but for now, the smile came back at the prospect of 'outside'. Sunshine. Fresh air. Grass.
