Nathan and Moira, Sunday night

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

After returning from Florida, Nathan goes back to their suite to find Moira. The two of them relax together and the conversation wanders. Poetry and gelato and candlelight are discussed. The insufficiency of words is touched upon.

They're both very happy.

After her appointment with Strange at Columbia to discuss Amanda and some of the remaining issues surrounding Asgard, Moira heads back to her car, to call Nathan and arrange to meet him for lunch. She doesn't make it.

Trojan Horse, part two - Sixty Minutes (Nathan, Manuel, Monday morning)

Back at the mansion, Nathan and Manuel spar with knives in the gym and add powers into the mix. It is a mutually instructive exchange. Then Nathan gets a phone call.

Moira and Scott

Moira wakes up right as Scott stops in and fills her in on what happened. She tries to stay together as the talk but it doesn't quite hold together.

Nathan arrives to trade himself for Moira. He neglects to mention to the Mistra team that he didn't, in the end, come alone.

( The sky is falling... )

Amanda, Manuel - Monday afternoon

[xp_daytripper]

Following this thread Amanda joins Manuel in the rec room for poker and talk. After a shaky start, they make some progress in resolving what happened in Asgard, and strip poker in Manuel's room is proposed. However, just as things are about to get interesting, Amanda gets Madelyn's email and has to go.

Scott and Shinobi, Monday afternoon

Shinobi wakes up back in the medlab and Scott tells him what happened after he was knocked out in the warehouse. Shinobi does not take it well.

Scott, Paige and some questions

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

Paige unknowingly goes to Scott for a little bit of comfort and decides it's a great idea to not really say anything much at all. We never said she wasn't crazy. Scott doesn’t want to bring up Jono. He also thinks she doubts him. Needless to say, things do not go well... Get ready to shout, “Paige/Scott! Shut the hell up!” Then they don’t kill each other and Scott gives Paige a little hope.

(  After a while, there are... moments. Then hours. Then whole stretches of days at a time. )

Moira and Shinobi

[x-mactaggart.livejournal.com]

After Scott's visit, Moira makes her way down to see Shinobi. They talk about guilt and blame and manage to cry all over each other.

Cecilia and Scott

[x-reyes.livejournal.com]

Once the craziness in medlab has died down to a dull roar, Cecilia slips out to go and find some edibles for herself, the doctors, and assisting students. Instead, she finds Scott. He wobbles, he wibbles, and she helps him back down to medlab to get a second opinion on his headache.

[Sarah, Paul] You wanted some information?

[x-vega.livejournal.com]

Tradition and superstition get the best of Paul and he puts off having a shower to go tell Sarah what's going on, at least as far as Shinobi's condition goes.  He gets out unscathed and she even smiles at him.  Are we sure she's not chanelling Shinobi's concussion?
