Recuperation was boring. Granted, it was less boring in the school, but still for a workaholic like Jean it was unbearable. She'd found ways to keep herself busy that didn't break any of Hank's rules--light cleaning, reorganizing things in the library, monitoring curfew. Today, she was baking cookies, but the cookies were a trick.
Everyone was understandably jarred by what had happened to them in their own home. Cookies were warm, gooey, sugary reminders that this was still home, in spite of what Quentin had done. It was the best way she knew to draw everybody out of their shell shock short of going into all their heads. (And, frankly, she was considering a psychic cleanse of the whole place once she was feeling up to it.)
She pulled the first batch out of the oven, carefully sliding the cookies onto a cooling rack before popping in her pre-loaded second tray. She glanced down at the M&M cookies with a look of domestic satisfaction on her face.
