( so miles is gone. which is both great (he's finally free of him) and awful (if something actually seriously happened to him, ivan's going to get blamed). but so long as he's somewhere else harassing some poor sod that isn't ivan vorpatril, he's okay with it.

but that's not what he's here for, today. no, he's here because once again wherever they've landed has interrupted his personal plans and life. just one more thing. no one properly appreciates the fact that this hasn't driven him crazy yet, although this certainly is the closest to the limit he's gotten.

ivan's face finally swims into view, as annoyingly handsome as ever. his voice is accented, similar to russian, and his expression is decidedly put-upon.

So did the "we're all going to die in terrible ways and/or unsavory things happening to you and yours" thing get thrown out with the old Captains? Because this is new. And really, I was just starting to get used to that. But you just don't expect to wake up one morning and find out that your girlfriend is now a three-year old.

( can he break up with her until this is all over? she's three! )

So, uh, anyone up for babysitting? I just ( ivan's gaze flickers off camera, and he groans, the feed falling from his face to show a snatch of dark hair and part of a wall ) Don't touch that!

( a little fumbling, and half of his face appears in the feed again )

Babysitter. I'm not good with kids, they get worse when they start walking and getting into everything. I'd appreciate it. She'd probably appreciate it if she knew. Thanks.

[Elizabeth pushes against Ivan's spleen or gut or something and tries to get a bit more purchase on Ivan's shoulders, finally wrapping her arms around his shoulders and hanging off of him with a giggle.]

Good?

[She grins and coos at Ivan giving his stamp of approval, wrapping her arms around his neck in a very decisive hug.]

Better. Yeah better.

Who were you talking to?
