Val sat at her desk at in her office/lab at the Baxter Building, working on an essay for one of her college applications. She was a little late getting them in, so early action wasn't definitely out of the picture, but that was only invented to make applicants sweat out the process a little bit longer.

She didn't know where she wanted to go yet. She was going to be too young to live in a dorm, as she wouldn't be turning eighteen until well into her freshman year, so she wanted something close. But something with a good science department. Something that would give her a challenge. A program that would keep her on her toes.

Essays were the easiest part. If the school had a prompt, you wrote an essay based on that prompt. If not, then you just wrote the same essay for each school and just replaced the name of the college.

Hearing a knock on her door, Val perked her head up.

"Come in."

	It's Vincent, looking Very Serious indeed. "Valeria, might I have some of your time?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 04:29 am UTC (link)
	Valeria looked up from her work, raising an eyebrow. "Sure, Vincent...what's up?" She's not used to seeing him look so serious. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He sits down, leaning back in the chair as he steeples his fingers. "It's been brought to my attention that you had, as it was put, a 'playdate' with someone and were fooling around in a closet with them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Val looked at him. She blinked. Once. Twice. Three times. And then she promptly burst out laughing. "James and I weren't fooling around in the closet," she said, rolling her eyes. "I invited him over, we had soda, and then decided to hide my candy stash. We were going to put it in the hall closet, and the door closed, locking behind us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vincent raised an eyebrow. "So what exactly is the nature of your interest in this boy?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:30 am UTC (link)
	"I like him, okay? He's nice, fun to be around, a bit on the geeky side, but that just makes him hot-cuter." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vincent twitches, looking startled for half a second.

Valeria just called someone 'hot'. Not some movie star or fictional character but someone she actually has physical access to.

No no no no no no no.

"I'm not sure it's a good thing for you two to spend time alone together. Maybe you should invite along other friends next time."

~~No boy is good enough for his little sister.~~

	"Nothing happened," she said, narrowing her eyes at him, "And I think I can spend time with him and not worry about my hormones getting all out of whack, thank you very much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 06:09 am UTC (link)
	Vincent curls up his face indignantly. "You are not allowed to have hormones." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 06:11 am UTC (link)
	"You seem to forget that I'm a human being. Hormones are part of the package." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 06:30 am UTC (link)
	"You're not exactly human, Valeria. Hormones will only bring you trouble. Ask Kristoff about my social life before Andrea. He'll testify to such." Not exactly a line of logic Vincent would normally use, but this was an extenuating situation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 03:14 pm UTC (link)
	Valeria rolled her eyes. "While that may be true, I can't help but have 'em." She sighed. Brothers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, for your own good, I think you shouldn't be spending any alone-time with the Rogers boy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:24 pm UTC (link)
	"You say that like he's some kind of a skeeze. Which he isn't." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	"It doesn't matter. No boy is good enough for you." He tenses. That was the part he wasn't supposed to be saying out loud. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:26 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not going to MARRY him." She rolled her eyes, "If I date him, I date him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:27 pm UTC (link)
	Now he's just going to be blunt. "You're not supposed to date! That means... you... do stuff. Stuff I'd rather not have a cognizance of." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	"If you don't want to know about me doing 'stuff', than don't think about it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:29 pm UTC (link)
	"I'd rather ensure that you don't do it in the first place. For more reasons than my own comfort level." He huffs, raising his chin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:31 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not going to jump into anything," she said, "I'm not stupid." That and she's never really had a relationship before either. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	"What if I could convince Andrea's father to build her a brother? I'm sure we could program him to be a suitable boyfriend, and I'd be assured of his good intent and behavior." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:38 pm UTC (link)
	Val slapped a hand against her face. "I LIKE James. I don't NEED a boyfriend built for me. And anyway, James and I aren't dating or anything yet. We're just going to the charity ball together, and even that's as friends." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm going to need more data on him, so that I can determine if he's an acceptable significant other for you. I'm sure you could do better, even if no-one is fully good enough for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	"He's nice. Sweet. He's smart and he likes video games. I'm sure Anya or Charlie or one of his other siblings would be able to tell you that he's a perfectly good person." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	"Valeria Richards, don't you dare try to confuse me with facts." He stands up. "You are forbidden from dating until further notice. We'll talk more soon." He starts to leave. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:52 pm UTC (link)
	Val stood up, glaring at him. "I think the only people, with the power to forbid me from dating," she said, scowling, "Would be my parents, Vincent. As you are neither my mother or my father, you have no say in whether I date or not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 05:52 pm UTC (link)
	He turns around, face curled up. "I think I know you, and boys, better than your parents. I'm just trying to look out for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 05:58 pm UTC (link)
	The scowl on her face is still intact. "I know that. That doesn't mean that you can 'forbid' me from dating or seeing him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-15 06:01 pm UTC (link)
	He sighs. "Can I ask you not to?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-15 06:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Maybe. Doesn't mean that I won't not date him or anything." She gave a smile, "I'm sure once you got to know him, you'd like him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	quitethecharmer 2009-12-16 04:57 am UTC (link)
	Vincent grumbles. "I don't need to know him to know he's not good enough for you." He wasn't too keen on another disastrous meeting with a close friend's potential significant other. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	invisigirl 2009-12-16 05:02 am UTC (link)
	Val rolled her eyes. "Yes, you do. For my sanity." (Reply to this)(Parent)
