June: Birthdays, Summer

The Girl doesn't necessarily like Poison, but her musical interests are developing in a certain direction of music that's too cool for her uncle, and she did get a Poison bumper sticker for the Child Delivery Module.

I missed her birthday due to work, and my visit this week was in the middle of the Last Week of School, rather than at its blissful end, that preview of Paradise. I also got to see her being the cool girl at school.

If she weren't my sister's daughter, at that point I would have doubted our relation. But that evening we ran with the dogs through the forest trails of Princess Park together, and it was good.



I also played  Colonization with The Boy. And he was the one who got the disc!

Chapter 3: Back To School Special: Buy Two, Get the Third One Free!

Fan Fiction below the fold. I assume that the good-guy mentalists of the Champions Universe try to keep anything they need kept secret away from Menton's attention rather than relying on their own abilities. That guy is scary.
