Lucas Scott, James Lucas Scott and Kara Thrace - Plotlocked kthanz
Lucas had taken Jamie to the basketball court here. He wanted to bond with his nephew. He was teaching Jamie how to play basketball. They'd been out there for a while.

Jamie threw the ball at the hoop and it went it.

Lucas picked Jamie up and started running around the court with him.

"That's my guy. Nothing but net J Luke," he said smiling.

Jamie started to laugh. Lucas set him down gently.

"My turn now. I have to teach you how to dance," Jamie said.

"OK little man, show me what you got," Lucas said.

Jamie started to dance and Lucas started to copy his moves.

Kara was out for a jog. She saw the familiar shape of someone on the basketball court, and squinted. It was Lucas, definitely, but there was someone else with him. A kid. And they were dancing.

Well, the kid was. Lucas was trying to.

She slowed to a stop beside it and smirked at them. "Hey. So... you really can't dance, can you, Luke? Thought that night was a fluke."

She looked down at the kid. Damn, he looked like Lucas. Except for the dancing ability.

She looked back up to Luke and raised an eyebrow questioningly, not sure how to phrase 'where'd you pick up the kid from' tactfully.

Lucas stopped when he saw Kara and blushed. He stopped dancing.

"Hey Kara," he said smiling. "No, no fluke. But J Luke here has some moves. High five for the little man," he said.

Jamie smiled and high five-d Lucas.

He looked at Kara when she looked at him.

"Oh introductions. My bad. Kara this is James Lucas Scott, my nephew."

"Age 5," Jamie added proudly.

"Jamie this is Kara Thrace, my friend."

"Oh. You're nephew?" That was odd.

She smiled at the kid. "Hey," she said. "Can I call you J Luke too or is that a special Uncle thing?"

"So you got here just like us, huh?" she asked, more to Lucas than to him. It hadn't occured to her that kids might just do the puzzle. But it was a toy. A frakking hard one, but still a toy. She wondered what happened to kids that arrived Here who didn't have a handy relative already Here.

	"I guess that's up to Jamie," Lucas said. Jamie was looking at Kara carefully. He was still a little scared of new people. He took Lucas's hand and held it tightly. "Uncle Lucas likes to call me that," he said. "You can too." Lucas squeezed his hand reassuringly. "Yeah it was on my bed," Jamie said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She could sense the kid was uneasy, frightened. Figures, she was freaked enough by this place, and she's not five. "Then I will." She smiled at him. "You know, I gave your uncle a nickname, too. Wanna know what it is?" He nodded, still holding Lucas' hand tight, but determined not to look too scared. She grinned. "I call him Dribbler." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jimmy_jam 2008-09-13 05:06 pm UTC (link)
	Jamie started to giggle. "Dribbler," he said looking up at Lucas still giggling. "You think that's funny little man?" he asked smiling. He grabbed Jamie by his sides and started to tickle him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-14 12:51 pm UTC (link)
	Kara grinned. "It is funny," she said. "Sorry. Dribbler." She gave a little shrug and winked at Jamie. "And if I'm gonna call you J Luke, you can call me Starbuck." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucas_roe 2008-09-14 01:09 pm UTC (link)
	He stopped tickling Jamie and lifted him up. "It's OK," Lucas said smiling. "Starbuck?" Jamie said. "That's an odd name. Do you really like coffee?" he asked smiling. Lucas started to laugh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-15 09:34 am UTC (link)
	Kara looked confused. "Coffee?" she asked. "I do, I guess..." She looked at Lucas, who was laughing, and felt like she was missing something. "What's so funny?" she asked, amused. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Starbucks is a coffee chain. They do good coffee. Not as good as my mom's but still pretty good," Lucas said explaining. "Aunt Karen is on a cruise. She came back for Uncle Lucas's wedding to Lindsay," Jamie said to Kara. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-15 05:23 pm UTC (link)
	"Earth has a coffee chain with my name?" she asks, shaking her head, completely bemused. "That's weird." She smiled at Jamie. "Really? Lucas married someone called Lindsay?" She glanced at Lucas again, figuring it was some sort of an alternate timeline thing again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yeah," Lucas said.

Lucas didn't know what to say to that.

"He almost married Lindsay but she ran off an the altar. Then he got really sad and went away for a while. I missed him a lot. Then he came back and tried to get Lindsay back. He gave me money to tell her he missed her. Then I heard Momma saying Peyton had wrote something on the Rivercourt. Then they both went away. When they came back Uncle Lucas said he was moving in with Peyton and they were getting married. I asked if he'd ever loved momma and he said not like that. I asked if he'd ever loved Auntie Brooke and he said it was a long story."

He pointed at his ear.

"I have big ears," he said. He'd said something like this to Layla already.

	Kara's eyebrows were close to her hairline by the time Jamie was done talking. She grinned. "And a good memory, too," she said. She looked up at Lucas. "You know, you may actually have a more complicated love life than mine. Congratulations, thats quite an achievement." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucas_roe 2008-09-16 09:34 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you," he said smiling at Kara. "Uncle Lucas is married to Aunt Layla here," Jamie said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hey I know when I'm beat fair and square," she replies, with a grin. "Yup, he is. He's doing his best to confuse you, isn't he?" she says. "Saw you're trying to teach him to dance. I think he's beyond help, though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jimmy_jam 2008-09-16 05:55 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah he is." He giggled when Kara said Lucas was beyond help. "Hey," Lucas said to Kara, then laughed. "You have a point there," Lucas said. "But Jimmy Jame has moves." "Thanks. Quentien was teaching me. He's a Raven. Uncle Lucas is his coach. Uncle Lucas got suspended from coaching and then started to drink a lot." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-16 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	"He definitely has moves," Kara agrees, smiling at Jamie. "Really? Uh oh. You know he taught me how to play basketball, too. So maybe we can forgive him for not being able to dance." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucas_roe 2008-09-16 06:58 pm UTC (link)
	"You did?" Jamie asked Uncle Lucas. "Maybe," Jamie said considering it for a moment and then giggling. "Yeah I did." He looked at Kara and smiled. "And you're a natural Kara." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah I think we should cut him some slack." She shrugged. "I had a good teacher." She smiles at them both. The kid really is cute, for a kid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yeah, maybe we should," Jamie said giggling.

"Thanks Kara. Any time you want a game just let me know," Lucas said.

He grabbed his basketball and passed it to Jamie.

"Why don't you show Kara what you got Jamie," Lucas said.

"OK," Jamie said before taking a shot. The ball went through the hoop.

"Woah huh," Lucas said. He grabbed Jamie and slung him over his shoulder, running around the court with him chanting 'Jamie' over and over. Jamie was giggling like crazy.

Kara cheers and claps when Jamie sinks the ball - a fantastic shot for someone so small. He giggles and laughs when Lucas pucks him up and runs around the court with him, and Kara laughs at them.

"Wow, well done, Kid. That was amazing."

She grabs the ball and dribbles it herself, before taking a shot. The ball sailed through the hoop and she grins.

"I still got it too."

	Lucas stopped running and held Jamie upside down. "Thanks," Jamie said still giggling. Jamie clapped from his upside down position as Kara got the shot in. "Good shot Starbuck," he said trying out the name and giggling slightly. "Yeah, you do. I must be a really good teacher," Lucas said grinning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-18 01:11 pm UTC (link)
	She turned around and laughed when she saw Jamie being held by the ankles, clapping. "Thank you, J Luke." "Yeah, but it helps when your students have natural talent like me and Jamie here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lucas_roe 2008-09-18 01:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Welcome," Jamie said giggling. Lucas set his down again and high five-d him. "Yeah, that's always a perk," Lucas said grinning. "Too bad Uncle Lucas doesn't have natural talent to dance," Jamie said laughing. "Hey," Lucas said in protest and then started to laugh too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_starbuck 2008-09-19 09:27 am UTC (link)
	"It is a shame," Kara agrees, shaking her head and grinning widely. She's really impressed by how the kid teases Lucas, which probably isn't something that should impress her so much. But the kid can snark. He's fun, too, which isn't the image Kara had of what kids were like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
