For Mick Ronno

[hellomajortom]

Tom and Aletayria had come back to the Nexus for a much needed break from the chaos and the confinement. While Jack had helped his wife pass visually as a human, her height drew too much attention so most of the time she was stuck in the hotel. That was a hard time for a women who enjoyed the open air and outdoors.

Mick had called earlier in the day to say he was stopping by in the evening which was nothing out of the ordinary. Tom had invited Mick to dinner. The boy needed to get more accustom to Anthean food and no one could do that as well as Aletayria.

She was just finishing up dinner while Tom watched Zayda trying to crawl around on the living room floor. Out of the pouch now, like Ziggy had she was growing fast but her development was a little behind a human. They were playing with blocks though and she was learning to try and stand up.

"I've drunk with Viktor and Vars before and they are honest lads. Rough diamonds I'd call them but men of honour and those that care. Bloody decent, that."

Mick nodded and knew Vars was fond of Zayda. The guitarist found it cute because how could anyone not be fond of the sweet Anthean baby. She loved pulling hair, which was something Vars might have escaped, due to the fact his was short and spiky.

"She loves pulling hair. I'm guessing Vars doesn't have the trouble that we other lads have when holding her. Her eyes are so bright and beautiful. One day---I am wondering if Ziggy and me get to have a baby--that he or she will be like Zayda."

The blond still in the dark about a lot of things revolving around Anthean biology. Not wanting to delve too far into the future, Mick nodded at Tom's words. That must have been so bloody scary for him.

"Ziggy's tentacle is bigger than mine."

There. It had to be said.
