Heidi took one of his hands while he spoke, sliding her fingers between his and twining them together with a soft smile. She was still listening to him speak, of course; his other family, Angela and Peter. Of course he hadn't said anything about Nathan, but then again ... Nathan didn't have a great track record of being anything but selfish when it came down to things like this, so he probably hadn't spoken to Gabriel much if at all.
She kissed the back of his hand gently. "Peter's always going to be like that, I think. Giving and sweet and not really like his parents, but I admit that the Angela here seems very different from the one that I know where I come from." Less ... evil, cruel. "I think that if this place is going to do anything to your family, Gabriel, it's going to make it stronger. Having all of you here together can't be a bad thing, can it?"
