As with most children the cartoons were like kryptonite for Callahan and Lynde. They had quickly become focused on the swirling colors and the sounds. Neither one noticed the knocks on the door, nor the new guest as he entered. It wasn't until Callahan was called that either of them snapped out of the near trance. Before that however, the adults were talking.<br/><br/>To say it was a sense of relief washing over Jurgen when he found out he'd be keeping his job was an understatement. He'd been worried since the kids had wandered off that he would be losing it. That relief quickly twisted into confusion. How in the world was any of this grounds for a promotion? Thankfully Jericho was quick to start explaining. The whole ability business really made little sense to him. His daughter being able to generate and seemingly control electricity did not help matters one bit. It only made more confused on the matter. Thankfully his boss seemed keen to explain without him having to ask.<br/><br/>It was hardly a surprise the necklace had no reaction nor did he feel anything when touched. "It feels like a normal necklace to me. Doesn't seem special." He noted. Jurgen knew he hardly had the feelings for high quality jewelry, but at the same time this would surely not be about quality, this was about far more than that. As he suspected it did nothing when Jericho touched it as well, that was when he called his son over. He had only gotten a glimpse of the security footage of the kids in the storage room before darting out to retrieve them, but he had at least gotten to see the boy holding the crystal, his mind had simply barely registered it in the moment. Watching the necklace light up when Callahan touched it brought that memory back to the forefront of his mind. So this boy was similar to his daughter in more than just age.<br/><br/>Jurgen had hardly spoken during the meeting though he continued to hold a respectable silence while Jericho was explaining a good bit about the company. Some of it he knew, other parts he hadn't. A lot of things were changing today, seemingly their whole lives really. Finally, on the topic of his own daughter being special he let out a sigh before speaking up. "In all honesty sir... My wife and I... We don't know what to do about her. She has little control over her abilities. She's chased off her babysitters and continually breaks electronics. I was worried even bringing her here for the day. Moving in? I... I would worry about her causing even more trouble." He admitted. Dealing with Lynde hadn't been an easy task for him and his wife. He didn't want to admit there had been some regrets here and there about having her in the first place, but giving her up was not an option. He could only imagine her fate if someone with bad intentions got ahold of the little tike.<br/><br/>The mention of a pay increase certainly had him raise an eyebrow but not more than when the mention of monitoring the children. For a moment it brought a sense of worry to him. He didn't want to see either of them harmed. The reassurance was most certainly needed. "My wife... Will she still be able to work her current job without a change to her employment? It would be a sizeable shift for her to move from a classroom full of students to just two. He asked, more to know what to tell his wife about the situation than actual concern for her keeping her current employment. With a pay increase and living on site they would reasonably be able to live off his salary, negating her need to work. Convincing Karin of that would be far from easy though.<br/><br/>It was a shock to him to see the grizzled military man giving the small boy a pony ride. There was no way in hell that man was doing it because he wanted to. How in the world had Callahan convinced him to do it then? "I... I didn't have any problems saying no. He pouted but..." Jurgen started, confused by what was happening. Callahan had no influence over him, but none of them had any explaination as to why that was. None of them could explain that, only that he was special in that way. That made his new promotion make more sense, however the terms of it were slightly concerning to him. "Watch the kids? But what about security?" He stuttered as he tried to think of the implications of this. Having things on a rotation would assist him in keeping up with his duties, but it still gave him a worry.<br/><br/>"I... I need time to talk about this with my wife. I cannot make a large decision like this without consulting her. It wouldn't be right." He finally said after a brief pause. It was a valid request though they both knew he had little choice in accepting. This was his family's safety and wellbeing they were talking about, plus a potential future for Lynde he would have otherwise not been able to afford. Still, he couldn't just spring all these changes on Karin. They were supposed to make decisions together! "I will have my decision to you by the end of the week." He reported.<br/><br/>Throughout all of this Lynde hardly looked up nor did she notice the men talking. Everything directly in front of her was too entertaining for her young mind to care what the adults were doing. Perhaps it might be a bit scary how well it kept the kids busy, but it was also useful. As Callahan had gotten up to answer his father Lynde took the shared tablet for herself, only offering to share it again when he returned.<br/><br/>"Papa said you were a Unruhestifter (troublemaker)." Lynde said to him with a giggle as she offered for him to hold one side of the tablet again so they could resume sharing it. "He calls me that sometimes too." Another giggle came from the young girl though she explained little of what the word meant. It would be a mystery for Callahan, but at least one thing was for sure, they were very similar children.
