Re: Alec/Mary
Alec knew enough that 'normal' people didn't have weapons on them at all time, but he didn't really understand why since even a 'normal' world had bad people in it. He didn't carry weapons with him, but he was a walking weapon so it was kind of different for him.
"I bet you looked cute." He managed not to say 'hot' because she had said kid and that would have been all kinds of wrong. "You look way better in skates right now than I do." He might be biased.
He took a chance and pushed off a little, making them both glide a bit in one direction. "So, uh, about Christmas. You want to do something Christmas Eve? That way you can do a thing with your family and stuff on Christmas Day." And he didn't quite feel like he should crash Christmas this year. "I have a two year old girl who will probably kick my ass if I don't stop by with a present the day-of anyway."
