Kat was half nervous and half looking forward to this. Victor's in laws (or former in laws, she wasn't sure how that worked) seemed very important to him, and she figured it was one of those stages to go through in a relationship. Talking to people wasn't always hard, but she also wasn't sure how they would take her. But that was beyond her control, so that she wasn't worried about.

She figured that she should probably ask her mother to do a dinner for Victor, even though she knew Erica had met him already. She filed it away before she knocked on the door. It was cold out, but thankfully she didn't need to wait long because soon the door was opened by a rather pretty lady.

"Hi," Kat smiled and it was returned and the older woman easily let her inside. Kat could figure this was one of the two people Victor had mentioned and in between getting her coat off she'd learned this was Rosalind (or Rose). Once she had her coat off she'd asked Rose if Victor was still being the worst patient ever, which had earned a laugh from Rose.

	He seemed to be doing better so she removed her hand, returning his smile. "Sure. Just glad I'm helping. The things I read keep saying to be reassuring and calm. And I did enjoy myself. Your family's pretty neat." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Reassuring and calm are good. You read up on things like this? That's really great of you." He knew it wasn't just for him, as Miranda had been stuck there with him, but it still touched him. "They are pretty wonderful, aren't they? They like you too, Rose keeps giving me looks." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Of course," she gave a shy smile. "I want to know how to help you. Granted it's just internet things but I figure you'll tell me if I'm doing it wrong. I am here for you though." She blushed then and glanced to Rose, who was watching them with a smile. "So I notice. You already met my family though. Except my sisters. I'll have to wrangle them together, whenever Miranda feels up to it."

	"You're not doing a thing wrong." Victor winked at Rose and then to Kat he said, "I would love to meet Cordelia and see Miranda under nicer circumstances. Whenever they are free, I will make the time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm glad to know that." She curled close for a moment before rising. She felt awful in not helping. "I'll talk to Cordy. She should be free." She gave Victor a kiss before going to the kitchen. Rose came to Victor then with a glass of water and handed it to him, "someone has it bad." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Victor accepted the water gratefully and after a sip he said, "if you mean me, I think the correct response these days is 'duh'." Though I could be outdated on the lingo again," he said with a smile. "And how could I not have it bad, she's amazing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Smiling she watched Kat talk to Aislinn, probably about seals. "No you're up to date." she chuckled at that, glad Victor was feeling better and so enthralled. "She is. A bit different, though, I think? She seems a little less extroverted." She'd noticed Victor seemed fond of people who were more open then he was at times. Kat seemed lovely but Rose could tell she wasn't yet at ease, where as her sister had been able to talk to anyone.

"Not that that's bad. Just a notice."

	Victor nodded, smiling. "It's true. To be honest though, the last time I dated a true extrovert, she ended up putting me in hospital. Not that that somehow means all extroverts are abusive, but I think 'different' is probably a good thing at this point." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm not disagreeing with you." She'd never liked Sylvia, and liked her even less now. But that wasn't important. She gave a teasing smile then, "so tell me, if not for the fact you'd pull something would you ask her to stay?" She didn't really want an answer. She just liked harassing Victor. She felt she was allowed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He chuckled and gave Rose a sly smile. "I would see if she wanted to, probably. I wasn't ready before I got shot, but I think I'm there now. And of course now is when I have a bullethole. Fate is a fickle mistress," he said with an amused smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Maybe it's saying something," she gave with a smile. "I'd say something about patience but well." she glanced to Asilinn and grinned. "I have none of it and redheads are my weakness." Chuckling she rose and patted Victor's knee. "Mom is going to have a hayday you know." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I've been patient for five years, I can handle it," he said, his smile a little sad. The expression lifted though when he glanced at Aislinn who was chattering away to Kat. He really adored her. "Your redhead is something special," he said fondly. "And I know, Mom is going to lose her head." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She chuckled "I admire your restraint." She watched Aislinn and gave her own sad smile. She couldn't go very far without Aislinn about still felt guilty for looking for the skin. "She is. I'm lucky. And Mom'll never forgive you if you don't bring her by. Or she'll swing by all innocently one of these days and hope your Kat's here. I had my hand in Aislinn's shirt so here's hoping that'll go better for you."

	Victor laughed loudly at that and he reached over to pat Rose's shoulder. "Well done," he said with a grin. "I think I should try bringing her by." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shelteredrose 2013-01-05 10:13 am UTC (link)
	She smirked, "I didn't quite agree and do that. Just be ready for the questions. She means well." With that she trotted off back to the kitchen, sending Kat back to Victor to keep him company. (Reply to this) (Parent)
