Fourth Floor Commmon Room, evening

Not in the mood to sit in her room, Isabel wandered out to the common room and flipped on the TV, flipping channels to find something decent to watch.

Sam wandered in carrying a glass of juice and yawning. Jack seemed a little better, but not better enough for her not to be worried. "Hey."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hey yourself," Isabel replied. "How's the patient?"

"Hey, Isabel," Peter said when he saw her in the room. "Anything good on?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Sleeping, but restlessly, and he still has a fever," she sat down on the couch and vaguely noticed the television was on, "How are you?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hi Peter," she smiled. "I'm not sure, right now the Nova episode on cultured pearl farming is actually looking like the best choice."

"Poor baby, I'll bring him more juice or something tomorrow." Isabel shrugged, "I'm okay. I got sick of sitting in my room. So, TV."

Peter took a seat on the couch. "I'm thinking radio is going to have a field day with that statement."

"Fluids are definitely a good idea," she nodded, sipping at her juice, "and what're we watching?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel facedpalmed. "Yeah, and given who's doing tonight's. Well, it doesn't matter since I've given up listening on Tuesday nights just so I don't have to go hurt anyone."

"I couldn't deal with the idiot on American Idol and the dancing show does nothing for me, so I'm thinking the documentary on pearls," she said, watching the screen. "Jewelry envy."

"Could be worse," Peter pointed out. "Could be Seely. Or the cat."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Pearls in their natural state? I like the black ones," Sam commented, always a fan of documentaries.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"All kinds apparently, natural and cultured. But yeah, they are gorgeous," she agreed. "Parker and I would definitely be acquiring pearls if we went ahead with our career as jewel thieves."

"Seely's amusing. These two are just tasteless," she said, making a face. "But enough about them. How are you? I haven't seen you in awhile." At least six months from Isabel's point of view.

"Doing okay," Peter said. "Better now that I know I'm not losing control of my powers."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You thought you were losing control of your powers? What happened?" Isabel asked.

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"You have a career as jewel thieves planned and didn't invite me? I'm hurt." Sam pouted.

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"At first I thought I lost them," Peter said. "Then I found out that when I touched someone I drained their energy. Neil's lucky he didn't get hurt."

Isabel laughed, "It came out of flirting in Revolutions last week. The scary thing is, between the two of us? I really think we could pull it off. Throw in your brains as well? Yeah, I can see the wanted posters now."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sam flashed a grin at her, "Let me play too, and we won't have pictures or names to be on the wanted posters."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

She frowned, "Oh, that's not good. Do you know why it happened?"

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Turns out I ran into this girl Marie," Peter said. "Like literally. We ended up switching powers. So she copied people if she was near them, I did if I touched them. Luckily we could reverse it."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Oh you're in. Definitely then," she nodded. "And in between jobs we'll relax on the beach at some expensive resort in Maui."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

From the little bit Isabel had picked up about Marie's powers it made a certain kind of sense. "You're lucky you were able to swtich back, her power doesn't seem to be particularly fun."

"Heck, if we're that good, we can buy our own island," Sam decided that as long as they were dreaming, they should dream big, "and declare it its own country. The Republic of...hmmm..."
