All right, the holiday season was officially here, so Mitchell couldn't put this off any longer.

He was going back to Wales to celebrate Christmas and New Years with George and Nina. A small affair. It wouldn't be festive. Not... too festive, anyway. Annie's death-- vanishing was still too fresh on everyone's minds, and Nina was too dedicated to her search to really let up the severe attitude for more than a moment.

Still, especially with Jack and Kate gone, there wasn't anywhere else he wanted to be for the holidays. So he messaged Bo handwavily that he'd be out of town for a couple of days starting today, and started packing up his things.

Max was feeling oddly nostalgic. And he knew, from experience, that nostalgia wasn't all that fun, and that the best cure was to find someone to go drinking with.

So despite the hour, he was totally at Mitchell's door.

Kate was getting ready to go in for a preliminary interview for the flight attendant gig. So, this seemed like as good a time as any to inform the brother-type of the latest development in her quest for meaning.

Ring ring.

Max smirked just a bit

"I was thinking the very same thing." He cocked his head slightly. "How've you been, Mitchell?"

"Kate," Kate replied, because she thought it was funny. Which was actually common motivator for her. "And here I was totally gonna start calling you John."

Max wasn't an idiot, despite how he might act some (or most) of the time. But he also didn't pry. It wasn't polite. So he just nodded.

"Oh, you know me. Business as usual."

Except for that whole world disappearing and the soul-searching that had happened over a few hang-over-heavy mornings.

"Well, if I say I'm going to a job interview thing soon, are you gonna be supportive or judgey?"

Important question, that.

"I'm asking so I'll know to hang up right now."

Eyebrows went up.

"Is this a trick question?" Max asked with a smirk, following Mitchell and letting the door swing shut behind him.

This was Max, after all. Of course he wanted a drink.

vanillajello: (This'll be good.)

"SkyKans flight attendant?"

Why was that a question? It was like she was still asking the previous question.

Date: 2011-12-21 07:39 pm (UTC)
vanillajello: (I'm into you.)
From: [personal profile] vanillajello
"Yeah," Kate replied, kind of cautiously but with poorly veiled excitement. "That's the plan. Not that it's much of a plan yet."

"A real host," Max corrected as he twisted the top off of his bottle, "would have had the bottle when he came to the door."

Duh.

"Waaait." Max paused to eye Mitchell over his beer. "You have school girls? You've been holding out on me?"

Because, as Max had learned from television, school girls were not students, they just wore hot uniforms.

Max frowned. "Since when did anyone go door to door selling stamps?"

Maybe they just knew to avoid Max because he'd come to the door with a beer in his hand.

vanillajello: (Pleasantly surprised.)

Kate honestly did not care. His approval or disapproval alone could not fuck this up.

"Exactly!" Not so much with the veiled anything, anymore. "Okay, a citizen of the world centered around Kansas, but still!"
