Who: Karen and House
Where: Some random bar in NY.
When: Around 3 P.M.
Warnings: Swearing, alcohol consumption.

Karen decided to wrap up her last hour before meeting House by spending half checking Landon's vitals, and spending a little time with him before heading home to change and run a brush through her hair, taking care of a few mascara smudges and obvious skin flaws before heading out to the bar she'd suggested to House. She still felt like a major ass, knowing he'd even pinpointed it before it had happened, post pregnancy hormones, post partum depression. Not a serious case, and she was already on something for it, she'd just been careless and forgotten the pill that morning. After seeing the baby tho, she felt a lot better.

Parking and going inside she went straight to the bar, ordering a glass of Chivas Regal on the rocks. She'd never been a fruity drink girl, but she reserved any Scotch drinking for when her nerves were really worked up. Reaching over she grabbed a peanut from the tray nearest, shelled it and popped it into her mouth, making a face and deciding, wisely, to leave the peanuts and just drink.

He wasn't quite sure what to say to that, so he just took a drink. Until;

"Part of me wants to look around, ask people what it would take to get her to be able to hear. But- it's all she's ever known. She's happy, healthy. I don't want to... screw that up, just because it's 'normal' to hear." Greg sighed, taking another drink. He wasn't sure why he'd just said that, either, but there it was.

She nodded quickly. "Oh, I understand, I do. More now than ever. I'm pretty sure their main focus is newbors, really young babies, but it's a good way to make sure what happened to Reina doesn't happen to another girl or boy, at least in the future. They'll know what sound is like as well as you and I."She signed along with the last six words or so, smiling softly.

	Greg smiled back. "Yeah. I just.. on the flip side, if I can fix it, I should. Medical school, 101." He wasn't sure why he was pressing this. He'd had a lot of random shit on his mind lately, but that seemed to be the end of his offerings, as he went back to his drink, turning away a little. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She smiled and popped another nut into her mouth, glancing over to some scored of a football game on a screen nearby. Eyes watching intently, silently cheeering a player on. (Reply to this) (Parent)
