A note was one thing but given there hadn't really been a definitive return date, Roy had begun to worry a little. Seeing her response though had his eyes narrowing some. "Can I just say I hate him?" he said, looking at Rose. He really didn't like a lot of the crap that Slade pulled in regards to Rose but at least Rose was right. She was hard to kill.
Seeing her question though made him smile some. "She's good. Mia's been feeding her sugar then handing her back to me." His voice was fond though. "But she's started asking when you're coming back to play with her."
As people filed in he moved to some chairs that were a bit further than others for he and Rose and sat down.
