Tuesday Night at Nell's

[mylandmyrules]

Nell might just have hung some fairy lights around the kitchen and living room. Just because. Ignis wouldn't see them and Lana and the Detective, should they attend, wouldn't think anything of it, but Gladio would know.

She'd gone with finger foods for tonight, some sandwiches and a few hand pies both savory and sweet. Ice cream was also on the menu because the heat called for it. Otherwise it was mostly the usual fare. Which meant she had a little extra time to curl up in a chair with the kittens and read for a bit before people arrived.

"It's rather amazing, isn't it?" Nell said. "Who would have thought we'd end up so far from home and so happy."

“All it took was a little trip through time and the second universe to the right,” Watts said in agreement.

"Apparently," Nell said with a smile. "And the House? It's behaving?"

“Marvelously,” Watts told her. “I think it’s enjoying having so many people about; people who want to be there.”

"Well, that's good then," Nell said. She was still skeptical herself, but as long as they were doing well, she's try to reserve judgement.

"Do you and Steven have any trips planned?"

Watts nodded. “Steven has always wanted to go to Peru, so we’ll be headed there during the school break.”

"Oh, that sounds wonderful," Nell said. "Peru. That's a place I've never thought about, but it sounds amazing."

“I admit I did not know too much about the country before I started researching for our itinerary,” Watts shared. “But I am quite looking forward to this trip.”

"I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back," Nell said warmly.
