Home Again

[Cece Ryder]

"True." Cece said with a smile. "So tell me something Selene, now that we're not coming off the high of an explosion and fighting Khan... " she cleared her throat. "And you've had a weekend of fun... you're sticking around?"

[Liara]

"In what terms?" Selene inquired sliding Cece her ice cream. "In this reality, this planet, or this house? Or...did you have something else in mind?"

[Cece Ryder]

"Well, with Clint and the kids." Cece said as she took a spoonful of ice cream. "You have a group of people that are interested in you being a part of their lives. I get the sense that all this is kind of new, people that care because they do not because they're trying to manipulate you."

[Liara]

"Well the kids like the idea but someone needs to come with a detach button." Selene teased pointing her spoon at Kaitlyn and looked at Clint. "But yes I'll stay."

[Cece Ryder]

"Good." Cece said and smiled softly. "So, now that we've got that settled... I'll take the Workshop, I can coordinate what I've been working on with the defecting Ajem that Victoria has been recruiting to our cause and I'm trying to find a way to manipulate the rifts that Dominus uses so he can't use them to get reinforcements, what he's got is all he'll have, especially since mom managed to destroy one of his bases." she winced. "Although, Ophelia is still alive, mom and dad killed her, but she transferred herself to a clone body so we'll need to be aware and Dominus' kids are working on the planet somewhere, so we really need to be cautious. You already encountered one of them, didn't you? Little girl? Blonde? Gives off this vibe of not liking the death?"

[Liara]

“Orlaith.” Selene said nodding her head. “Hey if your going to sick around down there take a look at Rommie. You’re good with computers right? Something happened and she restored from a very old backup. I just want to make sure everything is okay.”

[Cece Ryder]

"I can look at her. Mom may have programmed her for something though, like it had to go back to an earlier back up if something happened." Cece said and pulled her hair out of the tight bun she had it in and looked at Selene and chuckled. "So, given how sheltered your life has been, never had Thai, or ice cream or sprinkles or strawberries and Moscato until Clint introduced them to you... any thing else that you'd like to try? I'm entirely looking for an excuse to spend some time with you too. You do need some time away from Clint every so often."

[Liara]

“This is new.” Selene said gesturing to everyone at the table. “You’re new. I still can’t see Jackson having a child with K’n’zy of course If he knew what Kinsey could do I suppose he’d be for it. Mostly out of curiosity for the end product.”

[Cece Ryder]

"My birth father was obsessed with trying to recreate what K'n'zy could do, he tried to make me into a weapon... which did work, just not in the way he wanted." Cece winked her eye. "Although he thought that his father was already long dead and I was going to be his way of securing his goal of complete galactic nihilism. Of course, none of us knew Tal'Zorha was mother's real mother. Even she didn't until dad and her met her when they went to Xenex's past, mainly for a date but also so they could see what Homebrew and other Xenexian things were like before the Brethren turned the planet into a wasteland. I must say, I'm glad you were her protector... what little contact I've had with her, I'm starting to understand why my mother and my siblings are so different from other Xenexians. Even other psionic ones."

[Liara]

"He was fascinated by her enough to hire me." Selene said and shrugged. "He regrets it now."
