<div class="floatleft">(http://i980.photobucket.com/albums/ae282/caela_ecub/Blondes/ev1-1.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Paisley “Lee” Halliwell<br/><strong>Creature:</strong>Witch/Cupid<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Manor Garden<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>Payton<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Lee listened to everything that Payton had to say, just letting her sister speak until she seemed done, and not interrupting. Her heart went out to the younger girl. She couldn't imagine what Payton was dealing with because her own powers had never been bound like Payton's had. Part of her understood why her parents had done it, but part of her thought it had been incredibly unfair of them as well.<br/><br/>She even managed to<em>not</em>laugh at Payton's story of why the cop brought her home.<br/><br/>"First, you<em>are</em>meant to have your powers or you wouldn't have been born with them. The fact that all of us have them, even the boys which was unheard of in the Warren line until us, must mean there is something coming that it will take all of us to handle. That Mom and Aunt Piper were drawn to magical men, adding more gifts into our line, supports that fact. The Angels of Destiny play a<em>long</em>game, you know that.<br/><br/>Second, if you won't talk to Dad, and I won't try and force you to, then I'll go to his condo at least and see if I can find some of Mom's old journals. There might be something in there that will help you figure out how to control your gifts so you aren't just inundated anytime you let your guard down. That's no way to live your life.<br/><br/>And third, my landlord just finished renovating a bunch of the apartments in my building, so they're empty. I'm not home much, even with the break, because I'm at the lab at school. If you need a place to be a bit of a buffer zone, you're more than welcome to just let yourself in anytime. It's not a perfect solution but at least you wouldn't have people right on top of you either."<br/><br/>Rising from her place beside her sister she moved to the back of the garden where there was a white willow tree. She'd been using her own gifts on this garden for years, using what she learned in her botany classes to improve her understanding of the plants around her and thus fine tuning her ability at the same time. She'd experimented in this garden long before she'd ever started working in a lab and this tree had been the subject of her gifts for years. Stripping some of the bark she flashed her sister a grin.<br/><br/>"Come back inside when you're ready, I'll make you a cup of tea from this to help with your headache. I promise it will help more than any pill, I've been tweaking that tree for years," she admitted with a small grin before heading toward the door to make the tea. In the doorway she paused and glanced back at her sister an idea forming in her mind, "You know, if you won't talk to Dad, you might consider going to the attic and using the Book to summon Mom. Then you could ask her yourself how she dealt with her empathic powers instead of struggling along and having us all give you migraines. Just a thought hun, I'll have your tea ready when you come back in."<br/><br/>With that last offering of advice given she disappeared inside, heading toward the kitchen to make the tea she's promised her little sister.
