OOC: Backdated to 3rd of December

Her evening has gone as simple as it normally did. After work, Jersey would return to her sire’s apartment long enough to greet the Kallista, Kelly, Garrett and her siblings before grabbing her bag of gadgets to break and enter for a short while in search of source codes. The codes would be put into a smaller bag, separate to give to Keara once she had a decent amount, and anything that could not be used by someone in Vedarian would be sold off. The cash was split between her account and Lucas’, some of it going to spoiling her pets and the rest being saved for Christmas gifts.

When she finished her search, the blonde would tome back to Kallista’s and tuck her bag back underneath the computer, wave and then disappear through the fadeportal. From there, it would depend. Some days, she would go spend time with Clover and Athena or take Bear for a jog. Other days, she would head to the University to attend a lecture or two for an art class that she had signed up for and then leave. Rarely, she visited the hospital where she had met Clover and check in on her friend's ex, Zach, to make sure the man was still alive and breathing even if he was medicated or sedated after the last time she’d seen him.

She couldn't help but feel a little bit guilty, but hardly lingered on the emotion before moving forward. However, that night, Jersey had been in the mood to paint after her usual activities and so, she had returned to her apartment in Sanctuary. Her work clothes had been changed into a simple pair of blue jeans that she found comfortable with a gray tank top worn underneath a red flannel shirt that had been rolled up to her elbows. Although she was in her apartment, she had kept on her Converse with the intention to meet Peter at the edges of the woods before she lost track of time.

Sitting back on her stool after sometime, the blonde had set down her paintbrush to admire her work - internally grimacing at the fact she still was incapable of drawing a straight line when she was summoned. One moment, she was looking at her mess and the next she found herself sitting in the Asylum. At first, she had thought the culprit was Nakia or Kallista, but her green eyes quickly found Peter. An instant smile lit up on her features, brushing aside her confusion as she leaned over to set a kiss to his lips in greeting. “Hello handsome.” Jersey reached over to scratch behind Lady’s ears after she was nudged, “And hello to you.”

There was was a small squeal of delight as she was surrounded by the dogs. She'd missed them almost as much as she had missed him and Jersey gave each animal a hug, a kiss on their head and she scratched them. “You didn’t, no.” She smiled to Peter once the dogs had calmed and looked down at Ellie as she felt her climb into her lap. The blonde began to pet the small dog immediately, her free hand reaching out to do the same for Jack.

“I was just messing around with a canvas after work and searching source codes to give to Keara.” A wet nose touched her cheek and she laughed.

There weren’t many things that Jersey did that was important to her other than spend time with her loved ones. And considering Peter and the dogs were in that category, and had been for a long time, she didn’t mind it in the least. “What have you been up to?” Even if she didn't know his schedule, it was the polite thing to ask and he did surprise her from time to time. Reaching over, Jersey dusted some dog hair from his shoulder before looking around the asylum. She was still in a good mood after successfully pulling him from his work.

When she noticed him looking at her, she inclined her head and smiled to the man, “Something wrong, Peter?” She asked, curious and felt Jack worm his way into her lap. She scratched behind the dog’s ears, the blonde holding the small dog to her slender frame as she listened to the man speaking. His schedule hadn’t changed and she nodded at his answer. Gently, she bumped him with her shoulder. “And here I was planning to leave you alone tonight until you got home.”

Jersey had a teasing smile and her words were playful, but before she fell quiet again, another person appeared and she jumped just a bit, startled having forgotten about the tome drop. Jack moved off her lap, returning to Ellie. “Keara.” She greeted, straightening up some so that she could return the embrace properly before letting go, “It’s lovely to see you, too.” Had it been any other woman greeting Peter like she had, the blonde might have been a bit uncomfortable, but she knew Keara and felt her lips twitch in amusement.

She knew how Peter was with his appearance and the blonde simply giggled.

“Five.” She confirmed, and began to reach for her bag automatically. When she realized it was still at the apartment, she reached over and pinched Peter’s hip, “But I’m going to have to give you them later, I was summoned. How have you been?”
