Genie checked the largish bag slung over her shoulder one more time as Brighid pulled off the road. "Here we be," the older were told her.

"Thanks loads, Brighid," Genie said, leaning over to kiss her cheek. "I appreciate the ride."

"I'll come back in about two hours, text or call if you need me sooner or later than that, lovie."

Genie nodded. "Will do. Enjoy your shopping." She turned and leaned into the back seat, where Violet was strapped into a babyseat. She wiggled her fingers at the pup, tickling her tummy briefly. The baby was having a good day today, and she giggled and waved her arms. "Love you too, little one," she said, grinning at the sound, and then she slid out of the car, waving at them both before crossing the street, following the directions Richard had given her.

Some days she swore she was just a kid playing in a grown up world, but she was trying to make a go of this magical world thing. She made her way to the door he'd mentioned and knocked.

Genie shrugged and sipped her drink again. "Don't worry about it. I don't. What happened happened, and I ended up getting away and in the Muggle world." It was hellaciously more complicated, of course, but she didn't get hung up on that. She was more hung up about her family than that.

"I'll keep that in mind, thanks. I just think sometimes they retain a bit of their past, and I wouldn't want that." It was fine for some people, but call her paranoid...

"Yeah, well..." Richard shrugged. "Always tried to do my best. Still do. One of the regrets I have from the war is that sometimes my best wasn't good enough." He shrugged again and took a healthy swallow of Bourbon. At least Genie's wasn't one more face to be added to his nightmares. "Suppose I'll get over it." He chuckled wryly. "Now I just try to do my best at work. Compensation, probably."

He nodded. "They do tend to do that. It's something I've learned to work with. You get used to it."

Rich grinned in an attempt to change the mood. "So should I see about throwing something for dinner or order takeaway? What's your schedule look like? Fancy a movie on the big screen or a splash in the hot tub to get the feel for the thing before I get you off home?"

"You're not responsible for what everyone else does," Genie told him with kind bluntness. "No one could single-handedly save our world, not even Harry Potter. So it's not worth beating yourself up over, in my book." She was a bit sorry she'd mentioned it, not having expected that reaction.

"Let's get some takeaway and hit up that hot tub, I think. I mean, I know have anything particular to wear, but so long as that's not a problem." She grinned a little wolfishly. "That way we can have a nom and I can get a feel for the place personally."

Rich gestured with a glance. "Closet in the bedroom has an assortment of loaner suits, although I'm not especially shy if you're not. Too much time in Sweden. Saunas and the like."

There's a Chinese place that will deliver here a couple of blocks away, or we can hit the Gourmet Burger right across the street and you can get them to run up something rareish to suit your taste if you'd prefer."

Genie shrugged and grinned impishly. "I've been told I don't have a shy bone in my body. Haven't ever really have." A trait she shared with her brother to an extent, she knew, but she banished the thought of the wayward man from her mind, much more interested in someone else with similar interests.

She swirled her drink around and shrugged. "What do you feel like? I'm not picky, honestly. And it's your place."

	"Burgers it is, then. Take away, and I'll put some music on when we get back. Maybe even do up a pitcher of mojitos to go with the warm water." Rich raised an eyebrow. "That sound to your liking?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Genie grinned at him somewhat wolfishly. This might end up a lot more fun than just her bit of brewing she'd do up for him. She never minded that, no, not one little bit, and it could be a lot of fun. "I think that sounds just about perfect, Rich," she told him. "Let's go hunt us down a meal and then enjoy the water."
