A Room at the Arms Hotel, Saturday Morning

[vanillajello]

Dorian Owens was a pretty resourceful and brave little boy. So, when he couldn't locate his parents at the big building he'd found them last time, and he heard someone mention an awful lot of people would be at the hotel this morning, he set on his way across town

Lots of bright persuasive smiles, a rickshaw ride, and a helpful hotel employee later he found himself at a door behind which he was supposed to find his parents. So, he knocked. Enthusiastically.

Inside the room, in bed, it made Kate frown lightly. "Did you order room service breakfast or something?" she mumbled, still half asleep.

"Oh shush, English Muffin," Kate retorted, waving a hand at him, dismissively. "I'm not that preditable."

Yes she was.

"Yes, you are," Bod said, laughing.

"You are you are you are!" Dorian joined in even if he didn't really know what they were talking about. "Let's go play somewhere!"

[vanillajello]

"Somewhere like where?" Kate asked. "Like to the park, or –– is that my phone?"

Yes, it totally was her phone, ringing in her bag.

"It's your phone," Bod said, glancing at the bag while Dorian climbed into his lap. "It might me your mum. You should take a look."

Kate nodded and rummaged through her bag for the phone. Then she raised an eyebrow at the name on the screen, and got up to walk a little further away from them to take the call.

After a moment, she came back, looking very very surprised. But not in a bad way. "Uh, that wasn't my mom."

[therewaslife]

"It wasn't?" he asked, holding Dorian and looking expectant. "Who was it?"

[vanillajello]

"It was Luke," she said. "I, uh... Apparently there's someone else I need to go meet up with at JGoB."

[therewaslife]

"Another?" Bod asked, raising an eyebrow and trying not to laugh. "Go. I'll get Dorian cleaned up and we'll find you later?"

[vanillajello]

"Okay," Kate said, picking up her bag again. "This is... weird. But... Yeah, weird."

[therewaslife]

"It's all right," Bod said, brushing his fingers through Dorian's hair. "Go. We'll catch up to you in a bit."

Kate blew kisses at the both of them and gave them a little wave, before ducking out of the room again.

When they'd see her next, she'd have tales of an egomaniac demigod son to tell.
