Deck, Sunday Afternoon

With everything that had gone on recently, Hannibal almost forgot about the picnic he owed Adora. Almost but not quite. And, since it was a nice day today, he let her claim it and did his best with packing a basket.

Cold pizza, potato chips, two cans of soda some store bought brownies seemed the most safe and least cooking intensive for him.

The basket was at his feet and Hannibal was leaning back in one of the deck chairs, just waiting now.

[Hannibal's here for Adora but the deck is always open!]

Adora wasn't too late, it was a nice day and hanging out in the sun with a friend was always a good way to spend the afternoon.

"I hope this isn't interrupting nap time," Adora told him, smiling as she took a seat.

"You seem very relaxed," she replied. "Is that how people do picnics on Earth? Mine back home were always interrupted by attack."

Like everything else.

"I remain vigilant as ever," she winked. "But the sunshine has its soothing properties."

This was Hannibal, she could get her philosophical on when they chatted. "How do you answer that here? I mean, last weekend I was begging children to sleep and tomorrow I'm taking my first final exam ever."

"So I'm fine then," she told him. "And mine certainly weren't bad, even if their father was incorrigible. From what I heard, it sounds like that is another of those repeating events. Like when we all lose our minds."

"Of course it does," she replied. "But then, I'm not sure anything would discourage you."

"I did like the kids," Adora admitted. "I never thought kids would ever be possible for my life, though."

"It isn't exactly conducive to family," Adora pointed out.

He made a good point. "You make a point," she agreed, starting to peer into the basket. "I can't say I know how I managed it. The idea is very not like me. It also makes me wonder why Edward and I had no children."

Adora raised an eyebrow. It made her head hurt to think of so many versions of herself. She focused on unloading the basket. "In that case, perhaps they were wandering the woods for a few days like he is known to do."

"Did you?" Adora smirked, getting herself a beverage. "You know, it doesn't surprise me that those children were not ours so to speak. I always knew you were more interested in her."

Adora laughed, "My very good friend, She-Ra."

"Of course you weren't," Adora teased.
