Anya took the offered pillow. It was an excuse to get closer. "Flattery...well you know what they say about it."

Sarah rolls over a little to kiss Anya's cheek. "Oh, I know. Its one of those secrets to keep a Stark happy. Cater to their ego now and then." she teases.

"Think you have me all figured out, do you?" she teased.

	From: rogue_star	Date: January 31st, 2014 01:09 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Not remotely, but I sure have fun studying for the exams, and occasionally have a few of the right answers."

"Then you should talk to Toni. I think she put together a book on the care and feeding of Starks."

	From: rogue_star	Date: January 31st, 2014 01:37 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Oh, she did. I've read it three times. Its pretty much required reading during the introductory courses. The illustrations are hilarious."

	From: anyastark	Date: January 31st, 2014 01:41 am (UTC)		(Link)

Anya laughed. "I have to see this book. Make some edits because I know there has to be some inaccuracies in there."

	From: rogue_star	Date: January 31st, 2014 01:47 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Nuh uh, totally off limits. She's pretty sure you'd try and sabotage it. At least til she's able to get it out and go on the talk show circuit."

	From: anyastark	Date: January 31st, 2014 02:38 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Is she still threatening that?" Anya asked. She shook her head. That joke was almost as old as the setting cereal on fire thing.

	From: rogue_star	Date: January 31st, 2014 02:47 am (UTC)		(Link)

"She figures she has to get rich and famous off of it somehow, after all the trouble you've been over the years."

	From: anyastark	Date: February 1st, 2014 01:13 am (UTC)		(Link)

"I'm not nearly half the trouble that Toni makes me out to be," Anya defended.

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 1st, 2014 01:27 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Not anymore." she teases. "After all, I take care of half of the trouble now. Toni is practically on vacation compared to a few years ago."

"You have to admit that I've calmed down quite a bit," Anya said. "It's your bad influence on me."

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 1st, 2014 02:51 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Ok, I'll admit that. But you have to admit, you've infected me with a little of your bad influence too."

	From: anyastark	Date: February 1st, 2014 10:46 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Anya grinned. "Good. You were too much of a Rogers."

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 9th, 2014 03:44 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"You didn't seem to mind all the Rogers when you fell for me." she answers with a smile.

	From: anyastark	Date: February 9th, 2014 06:47 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Of course I didn't," Anya said. "Opposites attracting and all of that jazz. But it is nice to see you loosening up a bit."

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 10th, 2014 03:28 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Combination of you being contagious, and different circumstances?"

	From: anyastark	Date: February 10th, 2014 10:54 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I can see that," Anya said. She looked up at the sky and the bands of green rippling across the black. "This is nice."

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 10th, 2014 10:57 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Sarah settles back in, looking upward. "This really is. We don't do this kind of thing often. Maybe we should."

	From: anyastark	Date: February 10th, 2014 11:24 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"We should," Anya agreed. "We both need to slow down more often. Preferably in each other's company."

	From: rogue_star	Date: February 11th, 2014 08:48 pm (UTC)		(Link)

A deep breath, and slow release. "Yeah, I guess we do. I'm not sure either of us knows how to slow down. It'll be a learning experience."

	From: anyastark	Date: February 12th, 2014 10:41 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I can have Sunny schedule downtime for us," she said. "Easy peasey."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 8th, 2014 11:02 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I'm almost positive there's something wrong with calling the office and saying 'schedule me some free time', but I'll take it."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 9th, 2014 12:56 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Yes, but when your schedule is as crazy as mine, it's the only option. Otherwise I'd never get to see you."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 9th, 2014 03:40 am (UTC)		(Link)

"I know the feeling. Now if we could just agree on a vacation." she teases.

	From: anyastark	Date: March 10th, 2014 10:10 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Someplace warm with a spa," Anya said. That was always her first answer. "And a gym of course."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 11th, 2014 05:40 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Yeah... I suppose I can do the morning runs out on a beach. You can limit my gym time to however long you're at the spa. We might be able to come up with something."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 11th, 2014 09:25 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I'll have Sunny start looking," Anya said. "He should be able to find something that suits both of us."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 11th, 2014 09:43 pm (UTC)		(Link)

A bit of a smirk. "You always did say he was a miracle worker."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 13th, 2014 09:03 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"He is," Anya said. "He needs to be nominated for sainthood."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 13th, 2014 09:11 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I think that might require Catholicism or something... but if he can manage to find both of us a week off, I think he qualifies as miracle worker, yes. Of course, as soon as he did, the Shi'ar would schedule that time to invade."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 13th, 2014 09:42 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I don't know. I think Sunny could hold off the Shi'ar and make them reschedule an invasion."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 13th, 2014 10:24 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"You know, I'd love to see that."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 13th, 2014 10:39 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"That makes two of us," Anya said. "But I can see him doing it."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 14th, 2014 06:38 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I'd kind of love to see that some time. Of course, then he might ask for a raise."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 15th, 2014 05:18 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Yeah, but every raise I give him is so worth it."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 17th, 2014 05:32 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"If he can reschedule an alien invasion for a more convenient time, I might even try and chip in."

	From: anyastark	Date: March 17th, 2014 11:26 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"How much do you have? It'll be a big raise."

	From: rogue_star	Date: March 18th, 2014 03:15 am (UTC)		(Link)

"On an Avengers' stipend? Pretty sure I can at least afford to pick up part of his coffee and antacid budget."
