Jessica was beyond excited. In the days leading up to the RV trip, she barely shut up about it. Even as she boarded the RV Laura had procured for their adventure and took the shotgun seat, she could barely stop talking. It was a beautiful day in the City, and the weather reports for their destination in Southern New Jersey called for blue skies and sunshine. It would be perfect beach-going weather, and it was bound to be the perfect summer night!

Well, I'm not casting anything, either, just info-gathering.

[ he looks up from his book at her ]

Speaking of, who's your lawyer friend?

[secondhandwebs]

[Blink blink]

Wha- you mean Matt?

[hellisforchildren]

[ narrows eyes ]

No, I mean the one who's here.

[secondhandwebs]

The one who-

Oh. You mean Reilly.

[She forgets sometimes that he still does that. She gets a slightly wary look.]

What happened?

[hellisforchildren]

[ he looks suddenly defensive ]

Nothing, we just talked, but I never caught his name.

[secondhandwebs]

[Holds up a hand with a wince]

I didn't mean- nevermind. It's good you two are making friends.

[hellisforchildren]

Dunno if I'd call him a friend, exactly, just someone who's only a little stupid.

[secondhandwebs]

Funny, that's probably what he'd say...

[Grins a little]

So remind me never to ask you what you think of me.

[hellisforchildren]

My lips are sealed.

[secondhandwebs]

Gee, thanks for the reassurance.

[hellisforchildren]

[ he's gotta laugh at that ]

No, but you're alright, really.

[secondhandwebs]

[Smiles a little, despite the pain, at that.]

That's more like it, hot shot. I just hope Reilly didn't threaten to sue you or anything, since he's 'that lawyer.'

[hellisforchildren]

[ he gives her a weary smirk ]

Nah, I could talk my way out of it.

[secondhandwebs]

So that's an 'he almost did'?

[hellisforchildren]

We had some kind of discussion, I'll tell you that much.

He always so stubborn?

[secondhandwebs]

[Snickers a little]

Oh, you have no idea. But, according to him, I'm just as bad.

[hellisforchildren]

Well, he seems to have a problem with false equivalency, so there you go.

[secondhandwebs]

This might be the hang over talking...but I think I might've needed to be there to follow what you're talking about.

[hellisforchildren]

Hell, could be.

[secondhandwebs]

[Snorts softly]

Fine, I'll just only get his side of the story later.

[hellisforchildren]

So, are you two siblings or something? Couldn't help noting the resemblance.

[secondhandwebs]

[How is it that everyone but her picks up on that right away?]

Cousins. Whether he likes it or not.

[hellisforchildren]

[ because maybe she doesn't have a mirror on-hand at all times or something ]

Huh. So, what's it like having family with you here?

[secondhandwebs]

Easier, I guess.

[She gives an almost apologetic little smile with that.]

To be honest, I've never had to be here without. So I can't really compare.

[hellisforchildren]

[ he stares off into the distance ]

It could be a little overrated, having certain family here. You're only lucky for it if you were already lucky.
