2nd Floor Common Room, Thursday Afternoon

Logan was in the kitchen. Cooking. Because when you were in a kitchen, working with a blender, you could call it cooking. Even if the result was more beverage-y than food-y. It was practically summer, anyway. Perfect time for a cold iced drink. With tequila.

The television was playing "Annie".

"Hey, Logan." Parker's wandering by, still appreciating being on break. She cocks her head at the blender food. "Starting early, are you?"

Rolling her eyes, she parked herself against the counter and watched him assemble his drink. "Right. Forget I asked that then. Silly question. Your house was demolished by snow monsters, and you still saved the liquor cabinet, mostly." Parker cocked her head. "Speaking of time-- when are you out of here?"

Parker took the glass but didn't sip from it yet. "Any ideas on where you're headed from here?"

Parker frowned. "Wait, what? What's happened? Has your dad's trial concluded already?"

"It's been a tad nuts around here. I haven't caught the news." She tensed. "I take it that the verdict wasn't what you were hoping for. I'm sorry."

"Since California has the death penalty, I assumed you didn't want a full conviction." Her eyes narrowed. "Then again, you said you were an orphan... Crap, Logan. I can't begin to guess what's in your head about this. What did they decide?"

"Well, shit." Parker watched him drink, and closed her eyes, shaking her head. "Thus, roadtrip, I'm guessing."

Parker crossed her arms, then took a sip of her drink, wincing at its strength. "Anything I can do, short of convincing Lily Kane to show up on your father's doorstep and scare the crap out of him?"

And oh, that's not a happy laugh. Parker tensed again. "How?"

Parker flinched. "And what did the coroner's office consider natural causes?"

Fuck. Parker stayed silent for several long minutes, then said, "I see." She took a swig from the drink he'd given her, then carefully said, "Any suspects?"

"Not much faith in the authorities of Neptune, I take it. I think V mentioned them once, way back." She let out a slow breath. 'I'm sorry' seems trite, especially since from what she's heard, Aaron Echolls was just reaping karmic payback. But still. "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"You're not. But I won't push. This time." She gave him an almost-smile in return. "You'll write while you're out there, right? It doesn't have to be to me, obviously. I'd just like to hear through the grapevine that you're okay, and not from Access Hollywood that you're not."
