Thursday: May 28, 2009 - AIM: Starbuck/Kim Starbuck: I just saw Charlie and Maggie's notes. Kim: i was talking to them a bit.. it's horrible Starbuck: I'm stuck at the infirmary for a few more hours, but I wanna go see them. Kim: charlie actually said we shouldn't for a while Starbuck: I know that's what he said, but I don't care. I have to do something. Kim: we can't do anything but be supportive Starbuck: That's not enough. Kim: i know, it sucks and i want to help, but there's nothing else we can do Starbuck: How's Maggie doing? Kim: charlie says she's just starting to realize some of the things she's going to miss Starbuck: I bet. Starbuck: I feel so bad for her. Kim: it's breaking my heart Starbuck: I think Charlie's wrong. She shouldn't be isolated right now. Kim: don't you think he knows better about this than you do? he is a vampire after all Starbuck: Yeah, and I remember him being a miserable ass when he first came to Halcyon and was alienated from his family. Kim: it's not like maggie's being completely isolated right now.. she has charlie and the twins Starbuck: Who are all probably miserable. Kim: and we're better? Starbuck: She needs some normalcy. Starbuck: I think she and Charlie should come over. Kim: no Kim: not yet Starbuck: We'll take Reed and Kamea over to stay with Frankie. Kim: you really think he'll go for it? Starbuck: We'll talk him into it. What's the worst that can happen? She bites us? Kim: she's stronger than charlie right now Starbuck: And you're a werewolf. Kim: it doesn't matter, you're forgetting that charlie's still stronger than me Kim: we're about the same when i'm turned, but it doesn't make a difference against her right now Starbuck: So it would be three against one. Starbuck: And she's not some sort of animal. She's still Maggie. Kim: i'm not saying she's an animal, i'm just saying it worries me Starbuck: It worries me too, but we can't leave her there to suffer. Kim: i can't believe i'm going along with this and that's if we can even convince charlie Starbuck: Because you know I have a good point. Starbuck: Hope he sees that too. Kim: i think i might be easier to convince than him Kim: i don't see this actually happening Starbuck: He can't keep her locked up forever. Kim: i know he can't and he won't, but why would he do something right now that he doesn't feel ready to do? Starbuck: Because he's freaking out. Starbuck: Probably planning to go off and do something stupid too. Kim: oh god, you don't think he's gonna go after the twins' sire, do you? Starbuck: Of course he will. Kim: why didn't i see that coming til now? Starbuck: Because you were thinking mostly about Maggie. Kim: this is insane Starbuck: I know. Kim: it feels like the world's starting to fall apart all over the place Starbuck: We're safe. Kim: until my parents find me Starbuck: Us. Not just you. We're together in this. Kim: I don't want them hurting you or the kids Kim: I don't know what I'd do if they got anywhere near you Starbuck: We'll protect each other and the kids. Kim: maybe you were right before, maybe we should leave Starbuck: Hawaii? Kim: we shouldn't have to protect ourselves against anything, I don't wanna live like that Kim: isn't that what we've said? Starbuck: Yeah, but I'm asking if you really want to go. Kim: what other choice do we have? Starbuck: I don't know. Starbuck: But we can't decide this right now. Starbuck: Not like this. Kim: when else are we supposed to decide? we have no idea where they are or how close they are to finding us Starbuck: Can we at least wait until I get home to talk about it in person? Kim: yeah, alright Starbuck: Good. I might stop to check on Ava before I come home. Is that okay? Kim: yeah, that's fine Starbuck: Thanks. Starbuck: I love you. Kim: love you too Starbuck: I'll be home in a few hours. Kim: ok, be safe Starbuck: You too.
