Not that he was privy to their history, but when they are tearing up the city to causing utter chaos. You learn a few things.<br/><br/><strong> “You have a home and family to remember. Not easy I know but family is family.</strong>” His eyebrow rose as he was listening to her.<strong>“That is a very mature path for sure.” He smirked as she mentioned Damien. “Listen, Kara, as you said, you put this many people of different backgrounds, ideologies, histories and tell them to make a team…there are going to be issues. But no one left yesterday or during the night, that didn’t come back. I had to talk to someone but other than that, I have it on the best of knowledge that everyone is willing to stay and try at least. I haven’t talked to everyone…only the antsy people.”</strong>He teased.<br/><br/><strong>“Damien just came off wrong, I don’t know his background, but maybe he is used to everyone doing what he tells them to do when he told them to do it! He hasn’t earned that right and when people feel they aren’t valued or like I disrespected we tend not to take it well. He wants to be a team member, he will need to learn to act like a teammate. It is just that simple. When he gets there…we will listen to him, if and when he is ‘elected’ team lead.”</strong>His words were firm.<br/><br/>Jackson reached out to touch her hand softly.<strong>“Kara, I am just kiddin’ I didn’t think you were trying to one-up me. Now if you bring in Rachael Ray to make breakfast for us, then we will have problems.” </strong>He winked. He looked at the pot as he had decorated a few bowls to make them at least look presentable, but she was right the flavors would compliment each other well.<strong> “Well they will have the flavor of beignets, so it would hit the palate quite well. The only one I worry about is Zod and I am really going to get him to eat some real food…I heard what he ate yesterday and I now know why he looks so angry all the time. If I ate that I would be angry too!”</strong>He smirked.<br/><br/><strong>“Eat as much as you want. I got the jumbo shrimp this morning and there is enough in the pot to feed everyone here twice, there might be some leftover as every one might not like it. I know another dish to make with the leftovers.”</strong>He had learned to cook…southern it was Mera’s way to make sure that he didn’t feel like they were taking away his roots.<br/><br/><strong>“So what was that like? Were they gone all the time, did you have a lot of alone time? Many boyfriends? House parties?”</strong>He wondered, he had to come to the surface and visit the local colleges to have a good time himself. He really could drink like a fish, but having a party in Atlantis like some of those he had been to up here was…two words.<em>‘HELL NAW!’</em>It would be so boring and all royal fan fair. Nope, the kingdom was kingdom and me time was, he was looking forward to being here that was for sure.  He could only imagine what it was like to have secret agent parents. She probably got away with very little.<br/><br/><strong>“You love Kal? He is your cousin I know but…”</strong><em>‘Why wouldn’t she love him, they were family?’ </em>He wondered.<br/><br/><strong>“Well, I am a mage, I have a few inborn powers being made into an Atlantean now so to speak. But don’t the powers for you and him come from the atmosphere? So you didn’t have a lot of choices right?”</strong>He chuckled as he sat with her.<br/><br/><strong>“I am glad you aren’t trying to take over the world. I appreciate fighting with you…not against you for sure. I am sure we can find you a swimsuit and I can take you surfing if you want.” </strong>He stopped.<br/><br/><strong>“Don’t know? Not sure how I feel about flying. I can fly through the water, but that much air at one time? Not really sure. I guess I could learn?”</strong>He laughed sure there was a spell for that, that he could learn maybe just over water or upper atmosphere.<strong>“Ok, we would be trying to one-up one another then. As you would say birds and I would say schools of fish, killer whales thinking you are the prey and don’t forget octopi wanting to give you a random hug.”</strong>He looked at her then he frowned.<br/><br/><strong>“You win! I don’t think anything would make me give up chicken for a week. I think I am Forrest Gump when it comes to chicken.”</strong>He stuck out his tongue.<br/><br/><strong>“Thanks, again there is more.”</strong>As a smile played over his lips glad she was enjoying it.<br/>
