Alexis eyes Alex, smirking.

Alexis: That was supposed to be a joke? If that was a suplex back in the dungeon, your dad would tell you to do it again.

Connor glances at both parents

Connor:"Am I missing something? Or is this one of those "I don't want to know" things?"

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:02 pm

Alexis: Before I was with your father, I dated your Uncle Micah.

She gives Alex a pointed look.

Alexis: A long time ago.

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:07 pm

Alex notices the look and rolls his eyes

Alex: Yeah..... I got it.....

Jabberwocky Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:08 pm

Connor:"Heh oh I gotta tell the sisters that..."

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:09 pm

Alexis: That's good... wouldn't want you to feel jealous or anything....

Jabberwocky Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:13 pm

Connor:"Why would he feel jealous of being Micahs slop-"

he catches what he was about to say and awkwardly laughs...before briskly getting the hell out of there

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:14 pm

Alex glares at his disappearing son.

Alex: Oh he's so gonna get it......

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:21 pm

Alexis stares after her son.

Alexis: Do you think he just lengthened his grounding?

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:27 pm

Alex: Yup..... I think an extra two weeks is fair for being a smartass......

He smirks.

And as regards the jealousy...... you know it's not a reflection of you.....I'm just obsessive.....

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:38 pm

Alexis: I couldn't tell...

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:41 pm

Alex smirks.

Alex: Don't pretend that you don't love it.......

Throughout all of this Alex has continued studying Natalie's movements intently.

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:47 pm

Alexis: It is nice to be needed....

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:52 pm

He takes Lexi's hand as they watch the tournament.

Alex: Well you don't need to worry about that.... even after 17 years I need you more and more every day sweetie......

Alex leans on the edge of the ring to get a better look at Natalie, he's smiling.

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 12:55 pm

Natalie finishes her kata and bows to the judges, catching Micah's eyes again, and the crowd, smiling at her parents.

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:00 pm

Alex smiles back at Natalie giving her a round of applause.

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:11 pm

As soon as she is dismissed, Natalie runs over to her parents.

Natalie: So, how did I look?

Alexis: You did very well. Your focus should not be all on your Uncle Micah though.

Natalie reddens.

Natalie: It was not!

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:12 pm

Alex: It really was quite obvious sweetie.... I hope your Aunt Mandy wasn't watching.....

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:17 pm

Natalie: But... I'm supposed to focus on the judges....

Alexis: Not like that you're not. You aren't supposed to make a kata look like a striptease.

Cryonix Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:19 pm

The judges turn in the scores to the staffers...and it appears on the over head tron....

Announcer: Oh! An almost perfect score! Ladies and Gentlemen, another round of applause for Natalie Edwards!

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:21 pm

Natalie squeals excitedly.

Natalie: Do you see that? Do you see that?

Cruel Britannia Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:22 pm

Alex shudders.

Alex: Bad mental image.

He hugs Natalie.

well done sweetie.... nearly pefect.

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:23 pm

Natalie: They will have to be perfect to have a chance!

Cryonix Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:25 pm

Announcer: Next to the mat....Julian Cortez, representing Legacy Martial Arts, Seattle.

Julian: Well...ladies it's my turn to go wow the judges with my...superior fighting skills. So...we're on for the after party of my victory, right?

Girls: Of course, Juuuuulian....

Julian: That's what I wanna hear.

Julian winks at one and holds another one's chin up gently before reporting to the mat...

Pockets Sun Mar 04, 2012 1:26 pm

Nikki nudges Gabe, smirking.

Nikki: He is your son alright.
