Skywalker Apartment [Friday evening]

Dec 02, 2011 15:02

Rory had wanted to think that Anakin was being paranoid, as usual, about insisting she and Juliet move to the island. She had to work, they had a home here, and moving Vladdie and Bertie would be nothing short of a pain. Especially given how she was feeling these days ( Read more... )

Jaye had spent most of her shift back in the stockroom, pretending to do inventory when really she was playing Tetris on her phone. Which while great for morale, didn't do much to help when she clocked out and walked outside... and saw the landscape disappearing in front of her.

It took her a second to realize that was happening, and she even turned to some oblivious shopper coming out of the store and asked if they saw that. They didn't. Of course they didn't.

When Jaye saw that whatever it was kept on coming, and that the parking lot with her car didn't seem to be there anymore, she muttered, "Fine. Fine," and annoyedly (was that a word?) picked up her phone and dialed a number.

And now her phone was ringing. Forgive Rory if this wasn't exactly welcome after the last few days. "Hello?" she asked hesitantly, even as a little voice in the background yelled, "Mommy phone!" helpfully. Thank you, Juliet.

"Rory! It's Jaye. Yeah, I know, I haven't called in a while and I suck and all. So hi, how are you, me? Oh, I'm fine, except it sort of looks like what the end of the world would look like if such a thing were to happen so WHO IN FANDOM DID WHAT."

It was either Fandom's fault or someone who Jack Harkness knew. Fifty-fifty shot.

"We're still figuring that out," Rory said, sitting down and resting a hand on her stomach. It probably was more guilt than morning sickness, but still. "Can you get to Fandom, like, now?"

Anakin had come home with the car and his lightsaber out on his hip. He was beyond caring if the neighbors thought he was a weird cosplayer tonight. His eyes nervously scanned the horizon, searching for some kind of...darkness that wasn't.

"Rory, you ready?" he called, opening the door.

"I'm getting there!" she called, trying to zip the suitcase shut. "Can you make sure Juliet's actually not unpacking her stuff?"

"Making piles!" Juliet told him happily from a mess of toys.

"Let's pick two," Anakin tried, using the Force to repack the suitcase.

"It took me a half dozen tries to get across the causeway," he warned, glancing back at Rory, "so don't get too worried about that. It's just how things are right now."

Rory nodded quietly, her hand resting on her stomach for a moment of unconscious worry. She wasn't going to voice it, but it was there.

"We just lost Jaye," she said instead, softly, because that was something she was sure of. And now was so not the time to cry about it, but he needed to know.
