If Eliot had had any doubts about who Riley's father was -- and honestly, it made enough sense that he was planning to call Tara later and make sure that she wasn't keeping a daughter a secret from him, so he hadn't -- the fact that she'd stolen his guitar and was now parked in the living room playing it would have gotten rid of them. Especially when he noticed that despite its upbeat tempo, the song was pretty damn depressing.
"Not bad," he said when she'd finished. "You know you get that from me."
"Really." Riley smirked up at him. "I didn't realize guitar playing was a heritable trait."
[ooc: open to whoever!]

Emmy settled down at the coffee table and picked up a purple Crayon, then asked, "What's emo?"

And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on
If the series of Zs will always stay
Close to Z instead of trend away
That point is in the Mandelbrot Set
"Music is math too. Like art is math. Everything is math!" She started making another Mandelbrot blot, and then asked, "If you don't do math, what do you do?"

Date: 2016-04-18 02:36 am (UTC)"Girl, first of all, even if all I did was tech, I wouldn't just be the 'techie guy'," he informed her. Using air quotes. "The things I can do with tech make me a 'tech wizard' at the very least." In a much louder voice meant to be overheard, he added, "Though imagine what I could do after bein' able to study some future tech for, like, even ten minutes, yo!"
On the couch, Ada grinned and pretended like she hadn't heard.
"Ain't your mom ever tell you some stories? I once forged an 18th century journal usin' only contemporary materials, carved statues of saints, an' painted the picture of Old Nate that hung on Leverage's walls for years. I'm a damn Renaissance man, girl, keep up."

Thank goodness that name hadn't lasted long.

Give him another day and he'd be making 'hi Bored, I'm dad' jokes.

Date: 2016-04-18 02:26 am (UTC)"Yeah, but how else can I keep reminding Pops that there's futuristic tech in the house he's not allowed to dismantle?" she asked, giving her Dad a grin.

Date: 2016-04-18 02:38 am (UTC)She moved the phone to the left, then the right, then up above her head before bringing it back down to her lap. Hardison's head tracked every movement.
"See?" she asked, giggling. "He's not fondly watching his daughter from the future. He's watching her phone."

Somewhere, some other version of her was still in contact with her mother. That was more upsetting than being the mother of the tiny pterodactyl coloring in the living room.

Date: 2016-04-18 03:33 am (UTC)She felt like she ought to ask Ada how her visit was going, but couldn't think of how to approach that. Too many thoughts.

Date: 2016-04-18 06:26 am (UTC)"I got my first warehouse," she said quietly, sitting on the steps next to Parker, but not too close. "I stole it, I didn't buy it. The property was for sale by the city, so I just forged the documentation and said it was mine. Kid's stuff. The city should be ashamed how Swiss cheesey their systems are."
