Work, what work?

[blindingtrust]

Why yes Ivy had work. Only it completely drained her. Then she had to go shopping. Because she was taking what people in the Nexus said seriously. She managed to find some thing. Buy them. Then pass out in her bed for a short nap.

Only to get dragged out. By her dog. She grumbled and got her shoes back on. It was time to take him for a walk. So she did. Let him drag her to every tree he wanted to visit. Then was very happy to go home. She's resting her feet on her couch now. Feel free to bug her. Just don't ask for walks. Or she'll hit you with her cane.

"Yeah, I feel better. Had a lot of people telling me to get over myself, really. And, well, I had a chance to talk with Mia, and knowing she doesn't hate me forever seems to have helped." He coughs. "Anyway, rather than mope over it, I'm going to help where I can. It's better than sitting around anyway."

He nods. "Okay. Well, she doesn't seem like a bad sort, so that's good at least. Last thing ANYBODY needs is an evil alternate." Phoenix knows he has one. He's just thankful he's never met him, and never WILL.

She beams brightly. "That's excellent. I was trying to think of ways to make you feel better." Though she may slowly inact some of the ideas people gave her anyways. "So what will you be doing?"

"I hope she isn't evil. I don't need to deal with that. Though...How much harm could she do?" Ivy laughs. "I'm not a threat to anyone in the grandsceam right now anyways."

Phoenix shakes his head. "At this point? Offer advice, materials, whatever she needs. She's got her own legal issues at the moment, so any way I can help her has got to be good." He ponders. "And hopefully, she won't try to push me away again... but I'm gonna remain optimistic for now."

"Well, you never REALLY know with alternates, but she didn't seem godlike. Actually, she mentioned something about a teacher, so, uh..." He chuckles nervously. "Anyway, can't be any worse than being confronted with yourself at a younger age, like me."

"I see." She snuggles into the couch. "Anything that you can do you will do then, I'm guessin. Hope she doesn't push you away again."

She giggles. "I guess that isn't that bad. I mean I haven't met her. So I'm not going to worry about it."

He nods. "If all I can do is be there for her, that's what I'll do. We changed things big time, so I really don't have any idea what the future holds for her anymore." A sigh. "But I suppose that's almost for the best."

"Yeah, that's probably for the best." Mentally, Phoenix ponders how many jokes he's going to get about this. He's already been put on the spot by Alis about the idea of "two girlfriends," and really doesn't need someone with a less innocent mind making the suggestion.

"Don't take this the wrong way but...I think it is. It gives her the chance to make her own future. With out worrying about your past becoming it."

She bites her lip, then decides to go for it. "Alternates aside, when do you think you'll be free next? Say eveningish on the weekend? I kinda have something in mind. You might enjoy it."

Ivy's words play around in his head for a bit. "...I think you're right. Things are so different for her now anyway that even if I DID get some notion of trying to make things like timeline, it's probably impossible. And, well, it'd probably make it easier to see her as a friend rather than as an alternate...." He trails off a bit, then shakes his head. "Crazy thing, Nexus."

"Huh? Yeah, I should be free..." He blinks. Something he might enjoy? What? "When did you wanna meet, exactly?"

This gets Ivy to feel much better. "Well she is your friend. Even if she isn't from your Earth. And all you...can do is be her friend." Oh that gets a laugh. "Yeah. Crazy Nexus."

Ivy grins lightly now. Ha. "Well it should be fun. Um. Wear something, nice? It's a surprise. Meet me at my apartment, sixish. Saturday night,"

"That about sums it up. I just hope things go right for her from now on." He sighs. "Frankly, I should think things can only go up at the moment."

He grins. "Sounds good. I'll be there." Though he's wondering what exactly the surprise IS.

She smiles faintly. "I think so too."

She giggles. "Good. I think we'll have fun."
