"Yeah, well," Julia admitted, finishing off the cookie and picking up one of
the glasses of milk she had brought and washing it down "It's not always
good.. but nothing weird happened."
She figured, common sense would dictate it at least, that Kat had seen more
than her fair share of weirdness within the Legacy. And Julia had been
brought up that it was okay to be curious and even get answers -- so long as
it was appropriate answers for a person's mindset and age. Looking at Kat
now, she could tell that the young lady could handle quite a bit of the
truth, but Julia wouldn't cross the line she was pretty sure Rachel Corrigan
had given to the other Legacy Members.
"We picked up a woman and Derek's having to help her now. She had something
with her and I'm pretty sure Derek's going to get Philip to work on it since
it has to do with ancient languages. He's pretty sure that's what's making
her feel bad."
"Actually," she added, knowing the girl also believed in the Sight and like
abilities "I believe it is too.. there was something weird about the whole
thing." She picked up another cookie and tapped it against Kat's in a kind
of 'cheers' way and took a bite.
She chewed it and swallowed before adding "But let's not get too much into
it.. I'd like my first night back without funky dreams. I'll tell you what
I can though because I know you're curious. You just have to promise me a
good, cool topic afterwards."
And she didn't want Kat to have nightmares either.
Kat was quiet while she sipped her milk, sorting everything out in her head.
"Philip's good at reading all kinds of stuff, I bet they can fix her before
morning." She had great confidence in her friends and she liked Julia's
candor. It was nice not to have to fight to get a straight answer from
someone. "Thanks, for not treating me like a baby." She took another
cookie pulling it apart and began to eat the icing out of it, trying to
think of a cool non creepy subject.
"A girl at my school got her fingernails done at Christmas and they put
candy canes on them," she said finally, "I thought that was pretty cool, but
my mom wouldn't let me do it."
