Thursday, May 16th
Alex Vipond: Pulling into the lot, Alex found a good parking spot, and killed the engine. Rain or no, he was wearing shades. It was habit. He glanced at Kaly and chuckled. "Ready to make a break for it, or are you too tough to let water get to you?"
NightotheAngel: "Im fine with a little rain. Its the norm of seattle. I will be fine. Not all of us melt over a couple of drops hitting us.":: Laughing a bit as she goes to unbuckle her seat belt and open her door. Before making a break for the door she would start to look around the place.::"Planes,Trains, Cars and Science stuff. seemed to fill the isles.":: She was not sure what she wanted. A plane sounded fun but so did a train for something different. She worked on enough model cars at the shop.::
Alex Vipond: Laughing, Alex slid from the car after her, locking it as he walked away, eyes behind the shades taking the area in as he followed her to the door. Once inside, his shades were slipped off and the bow tucked into the neck of his t-shirt. "Wow...” there was a lot to choose from. They even had model boats. He wandered the aisles, and chuckled. "Ha! They got a yellow submarine!" he glanced around at Kaly but she was, no doubt, too young to catch the inference.
NightotheAngel: "you mean like the beatles?":: raising a brow as she looked to him. Thanks to the Ipod that was filled with all kinds of music new and old that Alex had made her. She had picked up a model train.::"What do you know of trains? I work on enough model cars at the garage to want to do one for fun.":: Smiles and laughs.::"Ooo and there is a telescope and microscope.":: she had both those boxes in the other hand.::
Alex Vipond: "Exactly." He nodded and then moved to look at what she was looking at. "I know they run on rails." He nodded. "You could do one of those tracks that run along the walls in the garage, like head high, and deliver things to the guys by way of rail. Sandwiches, cold drinks, tools...." He chuckled at that, then looked at the other things she had in hand. "Telescope you could study the stars when the sky is clear, the neighbors when it isn't." He smirked.
NightotheAngel: "Oh I see how you used your telescope.":: Smiles and laughs a bit as she would put the microscope away for now. She kind of liked the telescope and the train.::"So, now I have my day project and night project?":: Shrugging her shoulders a bit as the idea that Alex had was not half bad about using the train to run the guys tools and things.":: She was curious as to how Mars would like that idea.::
Alex Vipond: He'd probably crack up over it. Alex studied the different train sets available. "There are a lot of different types. I guess it comes down to personal preference." He was, generally, clueless. "What do you think?" Looking back at Kaly, it was, ultimately her decision. Her toys, her choice. Alex was eyeing that sub, though. Maybe a plane, too.
NightotheAngel: "Well if Im going to run it in the shop then I would need something the is strong enough to pull stuff and hold stuff. So I will need some cars and a lead. I like this one.":: Picking up the freight train set:: "This seems useful for the garage. what do you think?"::
Alex Vipond: "I think if that's what you want to do with it, it would be perfect for the task." he nodded, picking up the sub as well as a Chris Craft, before eyeballing the planes again. "I also think we need a cart." He nodded and moved to get one for them. They were gonna buy out the store, he was sure of it.
NightotheAngel: "How big of models are you getting? Are you trying to replicate an actual submarine?":: Raising a brow as she looked to him. Or was he planning on buying her whatever she wanted and needed now?"::
Alex Vipond: "I don't think it's that big, just a little toy." He nodded. The Chris Craft was bigger, at three feet, stem to stern. The planes he was still eyeballing, until he saw a P51 Mustang. Then it was instant grab. He was like the proverbial kid in the toy store and he gave a little bounce on his feet before looking back at Kaly. "Anything else catch your eye? What about the microscope? Science is cool."
NightotheAngel: "I thought about it but I dont know what I would look at under the microscope right now. Maybe later. Thats why I like the telescope for the sky.":: Smiles as she looks to him and nods as she looks to the rest of the store. Not sure what else to add to the cart.::"Oh the tracks might be smart thing to get to put the train on":: laughs a bit ::"I could always come back for the microscope later. Now what type of telescope to get? I have no idea. Holy shit these things are expensive.::
Alex Vipond: "Bugs. Blood. Hair." he shrugged. "Leland's snot." He smirked, then chuckled, and you don't have to limit yourself, if you want it, get it." He eyed the track, and grabbed what he hoped was enough to run the course through the garage. "You want top of the line, something that is going to put you right on the moon..." Up close and personal. Eyeing the one she was looking at he shrugged. "Not as expensive as the Hubble."
NightotheAngel: "Yes Fairy godfather. Whatever you say. ":: Smiles and laughs as they talk. She continues to look at things as the doll houses briefly catch her attention. Although now she was not sure what she would do with it at this point in time. She nodded as she heard what Alex said about the microscope. She picked out the top of the line microscope and telescope. It would save her from making a return trip.::"Microscope may help me understand myself better too."::
Alex Vipond: Moving to stand next to her, he eyed the dollhouse. "True." He continued to eye the dollhouses. "You know, putting one of these together could be fun. Then you could display it until one day passing it along to your little girl. Fill it with all those tiny little things that you can get to go along with it. Start a collection, you know?"
NightotheAngel: The nervous habit of biting her lip had returned as she put the microscope in the cart. She continued to think about the doll houses and what Alex was saying.::"You know Mars would kill you for saying something like that me and kids in the same sentence. ":: trying to hold a straight face but she couldnt help but smile.::"Yeah right me? Kids? I doubt procreating is exactly a wise decision. "::
Alex Vipond: "You're not gonna be a teenager forever, and I think it would be cool to have something you could share with and pass down to a daughter." Alex shrugged at the procreation comment. "Ah, you gotta look at it like anything else. A possibility, not an absolute. You may decide you don't want kids, or you may decide to adopt...." he paused at that, contemplating that possibility but he knew he and Meghan weren't there yet. Maybe someday. Right now he was being selfish and wanted her to himself.
NightotheAngel: "Eh maybe. I dont know. Never really thought about it. But you make a good point of parents wanting better for their kids. What were you just thinking?":: Raising a brow.::"Awe someone else wants to be a daddy."::
Alex Vipond: "Don't go there...." he chuckled. "Not ready for that. Someday, maybe, but not now." He shrugged. "I'll just have to live vicariously through my friend's kids." After all, Jake and Shay were baking. Alex could spoil the kid rotten and then send it home. There was an appeal to having all the fun and none of the responsibility.
NightotheAngel: "What ? Your the one that started it with me one day being a mother. Whats wrong with you thinking about being a father? Could build one to pass on to your kids?":: Smiles as she was enjoying the turn of the tables.::"True touring would become a bit of a problem since Meghan would have to stay home or meet you at some point. Because I doubt you would want a bus filled with dirty diapers. ":: Smiles as she was enjoying watching him squirm a bit and give excuses as to why he couldnt' experience things.::
Alex Vipond: "I don't think touring and child rearing go hand in hand. Maybe in a decade or so when I reach my expiration date...." He could only tour so long before people caught onto the fact that he was not aging. "We'll see then. In the meantime, it's hard enough being on a bus for weeks at a time, toss a baby into that mix and well..." he shook his head. "I don't think so, Tim." And he said it in his best Al Borland impression.
NightotheAngel: Lookign to him confused as he did the impression. Since when do you have an expiration date? Mr. Stay young forever.":: Laughing as she lightly joked about things. What about you its all about your yellow submarine? Figured you were pretty occupied with your loving wife when not at work or home.::
Alex Vipond: His lips twitched, but nope, not gonna say it. "Well, who's to say that I and my loving wife can't play together, hmmm? Besides, I can rig this sucker with a camera and see what's under water, check out the fish and look for sunken treasure." Yes, he just said that. As for his expiration date... "And that is exactly the point of the expiration date. The world can only have so many Dick Clarks before some takes notice."
NightotheAngel: "I never said that. But isnt sex usually used as a reason to procreate? Im sorry I didnt mean to upset or offend you. I am sorry.":: She looked back to the models and things in the store.::
Alex Vipond: "First, I am not offened, or upset. Second, one day you will learn... many, many years from now, that there's more to sex than procreation." He chuckled. "And I will leave it at that. Mars can explain the birds and bees. Or Sasha or any number of people more qualified to do so."
NightotheAngel: "oh I already know about sex and how it takes place biologically. "::Smiles watching him squirm.::"Awe Alex your so cute when you dont want to discuss something."::
Alex Vipond: He just looked at her for a moment, then pointed off toward another section. "Look! Chemistry sets! You could learn to make stink bombs." Mars was so going to kill him.
MacabreSaVant: Speaking of Mars, the elusive older blue collar brother, he had sought out for his best bud and found out that he was spending time with Kaly. That was interesting. The roar of the harley night rod was evident in approach before he parked it before the establishment. Settling in the saddle of the seat a moment as he took a deep breathe and relaxed momentarily til he slipped off the back and strode on into the place. –d
NightotheAngel: "Oh I could figure out how to do a homemade pregnancy test.":: Okay so she was pushing her luck just a bit Maybe she was taking the teasing too far. She walked over to the chemistry sets and would look over the options. As once again she would pick the top of the line model of chemistry sets.::
Alex Vipond: One brow rose as he regarded her. "No killing of rabbits...." he started adding accessories to the cart. Beakers, vials, "oooh! Bunsen burner...." That went into the cart too. God help them if and when he and Meghan adopted a kid. The child would be spoiled rotten.
NightotheAngel: "Just remember whatever you plan on doing with anyone elses kid. they will get revenge on you when you have kids oh fairy god father of mine.":: Smiles and laughs and turns.::" Mars is here.":: Smiles as she runs off to find her big brother. who she had nto seen in awhile. She had not thought about Alex's rule of no rabbit killing. She would have to ask him about that later.::
Alex Vipond: One couldn't not hear the bike, and yes, Alex knew before Mars walked in his brother from another mother had arrived. He smirked as Kaly ran off to greet him. "Saved by the bell..." Or Harley, as the case may be.
MacabreSaVant: The door was pushed open, Mars was dressed in some faded jeans, those black squared tip boots, and red button up longsleeve, the sleeves were rolled up revealing strong forearms. His hair pulled back and tied off, blues fell upon his sister as she was bounding over, a smile spread across his lips. "Little sister.. little sister.." He paused as he waited for that massive hug. –d
NightotheAngel: She smiled as it felt like forever since she seen her brother. ::"You have a lot of explaining to do. First gone to look after Abby and now gone again with the tour. Whats going on? Dont make me go drag it out of Alex. Because you know I will do it. ":: She spoke respectfully but with a smile.::"Dont worry things are fine at the shop and I will be sure to finish up the paper work today that was collected through the day for ordered parts."::
Alex Vipond: Alex followed with the cart, leaning on it as he watched Kaly mob her brother. He smirked as he leaned against the cart that was now pretty damned full, between his toys and Kaly's. "She will, too."
MacabreSaVant: "Im sure you will" His arms wrapped around his sis and he hugged her warmly before releasing her all together. She figured he deserved to be smacked.::"Thats for going to Italy to get married to Sasha. And I had to find out through Alex. Really Alex. Hello, you know there is this new invention called a phone or email from the computer. " Well, theres alot to talk about, which we will eventually.. best to do so back at the house though" Arm draped over Kaly's shoulder as he headed to Alex. " Leland should have told you, he was left as Top"
NightotheAngel: You expect me to use the same technology and you cant use them yourself. Come on Mars.":: Shaking her head.::"Leland is a little busy with Abbey right now. Which is understandable which is why Im helping out so much at the shop. To help alleviate the stress.":: Softly sighs as she smiles and looks to Mars.::
MacabreSaVant: "At the time, the use of said tech was dangerous so I didnt. I left word with Leland, he should have told you"
Alex Vipond: "Whoa, I said proposed, not married...." He mirked. Typical teen, heard what she wanted. He looked at Mars. "She's getting a chem set. Don't blame me for any smells that may ensue." He smirked, then giggled, yes, giggled. he couldn't help it, the visual of the potential reactions was just too much.
MacabreSaVant: Blank expression. He eyed Alex momentarily before looking back at Kaly. " Ill talk to Steve and a few others about building another building nearby for your... chem expirements" –d
NightotheAngel: "The point is not whether they were married. The point is that I found out through you Alex and not my own brothers.":: Looking back with a glare at Mars briefly. ::"No need too I will just do them in the Garage or the Kitchen" Smiles as she looks to Mars.::"I also get a train and microscope and telescope and debating about a dollhouse. Alex thought might be good for me to do to pass onto my future daughter."::
MacabreSaVant: It felt like she was rambling, that exciteable type. Pups. He smirked amused. " Yes well, if my big mouth best friend would let me tell you I would have" Though he was joking though. –d
NightotheAngel: "No you wouldnt. Everyone else is your messangers.":: Sticking her tongue out at him. ::"Ooo Cameras I almost forgot those I better go get some of those too."::
MacabreSaVant: "Well you know.. its not easy being King. " Eyes slanted to Alex with a glint of amusement. –d
Alex Vipond: He laughed. "Well, it slipped out." he smirked and looked at Kaly. "Camera would be good, record your progress and all that. For posterity when you win the Nobel for some innovation you create." Nodding, he looked at Mars, and smirked. "But it sure is fun, right?"
NightotheAngel: "Yeah of course thats why I would use a camera. What else could I possibly use a camera for.":: Smiles as she grabs a few cameras that were also top of the line with a couple of lenses. Before putting them in the cart.::
MacabreSaVant: Luckily, they had money saved up from the gun running in the past with Boone. He fell in along side Alex. " How's your bride?" His gaze wandered the area. –d
NightotheAngel: "Hmm anything else that you guys can think of? Do we have enough?":: She managed to grab a second cart and fill it up with more things. Like how to create crystals and gems and things.::
Alex Vipond: As they followed along with Kaly, he nodded to Mars. "She's doing good. She's shopping paint chips at present. Trying to decide how to decorate the offices when we get them remodeled." he nodded. Good thing he had his Amex. "Have you seen ... Red?" Nickname used, rather than her name in case anyone got the idea that Eleventh Hour was back and stateside, before they were ready to 'come out'.
MacabreSaVant: "No, not yet" He replied. He wasnt about to go to the mountainside and check either. At this point, he was keeping his own close. Sedona had yet to pledge, she had an alliance, but had not pledged. She was a nomad. A hand came up and gripped Alex on the shoulder momentarily. " any other word of the what if?" Soul , Angel and what
not. –d
NightotheAngel: Kalypso kept looking over her shoulder. Some would say paranoia but others would think it was safety. She looked to Mars and Alex.::"Okay sorry to break up the bromance but what is going on? Who is Soul and Angel?":: She tried to be normal when in public but she was with her brother and pretty much fairy god father. So there were certain conversations she might drop in on unintentionally.::
Alex Vipond: "Verified." he nodded. "That blinding pain you felt ... that was him gut raping me." Yeah, so not pleasant. It had dropped Meghan to her knees and had Alex not already been flat on his back, he would have dropped himself. "I don't know what it means." He shrugged. "It does explain why I've always been something of an outcast."
MacabreSaVant: He looked to Kalypso. " Ill explain when we get back to the pack house" She was pushy, it didnt sit well with him how much she wanted to know of the dangerous stuff. He peered at Alex, seeing if he agreed or would rather tell the youngin about the news. –d
NightotheAngel: She wanted to help and how is she supposed to help if she doesnt know what is going on. She nodded as Mars spoke along with Alex. She put the items in the car the best they would fit and careful not to break anything. She hated how people sometimes treated her like she was made of glass. Although part of her knew she had a lot more to learn as far as being a wolf.::
Alex Vipond: Kids were crafty. She'd hear about it sooner or later, and it was best coming from them, than her learning about it on her own. He nodded. "Back at the house is good." He looked at Kaly. "Get everything you wanted?"
NightotheAngel: "Yeah for now and to start with. Dont worry fairy godfather if I need anymore. I will let you know what Im missing.":: Smiles as she spoke sweetly and respectfully to Alex as they got ready to head back to the house.::
Alex Vipond: Alex smirked, and took a lean against the counter as the clerk rang everything up, eyeing him dubiously the entire time in his ripped jeans and faded t-shirt. The bandana on his head covering his hair probably didn't help, making him look like a gang banger wanna be. When it was all totaled up, he did the credit card shuffle, skipping over the black Amex, and pulling his Visa. It was everywhere you wanted to be, after all. Swiping the card, he waited for the receipt and signed it, then tucked both back into his wallet. "All right, Kaly, let's get this stuff loaded in the car. You riding with me or big brother?"
NightotheAngel: "I think you because I think big brother ditched me or probably does not think I should be riding in the bitch seat of his bike. Thats reserved for sasha. Although I had Sasha pegged for the type to own her own bike.":: Smiles as she looked to Alex and loaded things in the car. She smiled as she looked to Alex and got ready to get into the car.::
Alex Vipond: Smirking, Alex loaded the stuff in the trunk, making sure his toys were separate from all the stuff for Kaly, and then he was unlocking her door and pulling it open for her. Once she was in, he rounded the car and then looked over at Mars. "Meet you at the house." Sliding into the car, he started it up and headed for Mars' place.
NightotheAngel: She had so many things she didnt know with what she was going to start with first. maybe the train since that was for use in the garage. She bit her lip a bit as she tried not to think of the news she was about to hear at home.::
Alex Vipond: Wasn't really anything bad, was just ... fucking weird, even for Alex. Maybe especially for Alex. He still didn't know what to make of it. Alex contemplated the ramifications for the first time since Castiel had gut raped him. It was really the first time he'd had the time to contemplate it. While on tour, there was entirely too much else going on to even begin contemplating it, let alone comprehending it.
