As always, Monday was busy. Isabel flipped through a selection of DVDs, trying to figure out what to watch for the night.

*ring*

Just back from Propaganda, footsore but amused. Best time to call for a chat? 4AM in Russia, 8pm in Fandom.

This time Isabel looked at the caller ID. Then she did a quick bit of mental math. "Don't you sleep?"

"Pfftttt." Parker grinned and stretched out lazily on her bed. "That would be silly, when I have to be up in three hours, wouldn't it?"

"I suppose. But you need to get some at some point. If only to fight of lech boy," she said, setting aside the DVDs and settling comfortably on her bed.

"Mmm, Anton? Is not as much a problem, no," Parker said in a bad Natasha accent. "There was accident? With limousine door. So very sad. Three fingers, ouch." She snorted, and resumed her normal speaking voice. "Like he was riding back to the hotel with me after trying to hold my hand during the ballet. I. Think. Not."

Isabel laughed out loud. "You are good. And that's so much more appropriate then just impaling his foot on your heel."

"I thought so," Parker said in deep satisfaction. "I was of course completely apologetic, but Daddy was annoyed enough at Anton that we left his uncle to get him to the emergency room. La la." She grinned. "So yeah, I was out with Sergei and Mariska and Olga and Casimir tonight. And I will be regretting this in three hours, but I can have a nap tomorrow afternoon."

"Naps are good. I feel like I need one myself right now. I have three of my four workshops on Mondays. I don't know what I was thinking," she said. "Oh! What happened with the guy? And the cab ride?"

"Are you okay? Is your arm better?" Parker asked, sitting up a little and putting extra pillows behind her back. "Is everyone safe now?" She grinned. "Tell me you all are, and then I'll tell you about Casimir, and the next date we have planned."

"Apparently there was psycho ass-kicking on Friday night. Principal Washburn made an announcement today. She was not happy." Eyes closed, Isabel nodded. "It's okay. Sore. Thank god I can use my powers to dry the bandages otherwise I'd be really annoyed. But yes, everyone is safe and sound."

"Good," Parker said forcefully. "Glad to hear it. I had to verbally kick Daisy for not telling me he got hurt on Tuesday, too! So new rule: no getting hurt and not telling me." She sighed, then grinned. "So. How's everything else?"

How to explain Casimir, exactly...?

"Anders got hurt?" Isabel headdesked. "Damnit, I'm so dumb. I should have checked the podcasts. And you haven't told me about Casimir! Spill!"

"Yeah, he did, and it sounded like he was making out with Bel and Phoebe in the woods... I don't want to know," Parker said resolutely. "Anyway. Whap him for me. So." She grinned. Almost purred. "Casimir. Lechensky. Computer security guy, but not at all a geek. He's in the middle of some security check thing, he's bringing his laptop with him everywhere, but he's twenty-four, went to the Polytechnic, native of Estonia, and a very, very good dancer."

"Oh yes, definitely thwapping." Isabel raised an eyebrow, "He sounds interesting. Have you run a background check?"

"I'm having Angelo do it," Parker said carelessly, smiling into the phone. "This is Russia after all. Just a little more difficult for me to do it."

Date: 2007-05-29 01:44 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"Okay. Just be careful. When's the next date?" she asked.

Date: 2007-05-29 01:54 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"Wednesday. Breakfast." Parker might have sounded pouty. "Coffee on Sunday, then dancing tonight, breakfast on Wednesday... And he's being a perfect gentleman. Grrrr."

"Anticipation. It's a good thing," Isabel laughed.

"I hate this part!" Parker pouted. "The guy I don't want is all 'come back to my dacha' and the one I find hot and intelligent is acting as if I'm too young to know what boys are for. If he keeps doing this, I'm tackling him by next weekend."

Date: 2007-05-29 02:11 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"No tackling. That's tacky," she snickered. "Go for seduction. But tastefully."

Date: 2007-05-29 02:13 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"As if I'm every tacky when it comes to sex." Parker sighed, wiggling her toes. "Tasteful tackling? Anyway. I'm hoping to make him think it's his idea. They always are so much more attentive if they do. They get that startled look if you're too straightforward with them. Man, I miss Lee Adama...."

"Oh shut up. At least you have the possiblity of sex in your future. Unless I'm willing to settle for a casual hook-up, I see no sign of my drought ending," Isabel whined.

"What, is Steve-Peter not interested? Does he have a girlfriend? Is he gender-neutral?" Parker demanded. "What's the story there?"

Date: 2007-05-29 02:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"Parker, he's a friend. And somehow I don't get the casual vibes off him the way you'd get them off Alec or Johnny," she said. "So drought. I'll deal."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:03 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"Mmmmph." Parker made a discontented noise, then said, "Reminds me. Give Karal a kiss to remind him of me, will you? That might break the drought."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:07 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
That made her laugh. "Oh be for real Parker! The poor guy would curl up and die of embarrassment!"

Date: 2007-05-29 03:12 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"He didn't die when I kissed him," Parker protested, giggling. "Even if he did turn neon pink. C'mon, he's a sweetheart. Even gave me a traveler's blessing. So let him know I got here okay, please?"

Date: 2007-05-29 03:14 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"That I can do," Isabel promised. "Because he is sweet. Oh...there is one thing I have to tell you."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:20 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"Oh? What's come up?" Parker frowned. "Something else wrong and weird there?"

Date: 2007-05-29 03:22 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"No, nothing like that," she said. "Have you talked to Jarod at all?"

Date: 2007-05-29 03:26 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
Parker's voice got quieter. "Not since the evening I left. When we said good-bye."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"I saw him a few days ago. He said he's probably leaving this week."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:32 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
Parker sighed, not surprised, but not thrilled, either. Number one on her speed-dial was about to become obsolete again. "I thought he would leave pretty soon. Tell him to be careful? If he doesn't call me? And...."

There really wasn't anything else she could say there.

Date: 2007-05-29 03:36 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"I will. I'm pretty sure he'll talk to me before he leaves," Isabel promised. "I guilt tripped him with puppy eyes."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:38 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"Cool." Parker closed her eyes. "Some things are just inevitable. Jarod leaving Fandom was one of them. I know you'll miss him, though." She sighed. "Any word from Jack?"

Date: 2007-05-29 03:40 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"I will. Just like I miss you. And Jack," she said quietly. "No word. Although I mailed him a letter."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:45 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"You did? Where did you send it to?" Parker asked, sitting up in bed, and concealing a yawn.

Date: 2007-05-29 03:50 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"Katara told me the post office is inter-dimensional and that it has ways of delivering things," Isabel explained. "So I wrote him a letter and addressed it care of the Time Agency, 51st century. Who knows, maybe he'll get it."

Date: 2007-05-29 03:55 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
If they were letting him get mail. "I hope it gets there. Let me know if he writes back?" Hope still springs eternal, after all. Parker yawned again, this time unable to conceal it.

Date: 2007-05-29 03:58 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"Me to. And if he does? You'll hear the shouts of glee in Moscow. I promise." Isabel heard the yawn and smiled. "Go to bed Parker!"

Date: 2007-05-29 04:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mparkerceo.livejournal.com
"Ohhh, fine, be all responsible. Tell people to call me. And not wake me up!" Parker yawned again, then chuckled. "And remember about Karal. I'll talk to you later, Isabel. Miss you."

Date: 2007-05-29 04:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com
"Miss you to Parker. Miss you to. Sleep well." Smiling, Isabel waited till Parker disconnected, then closed her phone.
