Tony and Michelle have a picnic, in which they discuss potential baby names.

Tony and Michelle walk outside to the lake with a picnic basket and a blanket. Leading her to “his” tree, Tony places the picnic basket on the ground and helps her unfold the blanket. It’s a nice day outside, despite the obvious presence of doom and woe.

Michelle's wearing a light colored flowered sundress and she smiles at him as she spreads out the blanket.

Tony pauses to roll up the sleeves of his button-down shirt as he picks up the basket and places it on the blanket. "Nice day out," he says idly.

[chelleuncurled]

"Yeah, it is," she agrees, squinting at him since she's standing towards the sun.

He kneels over to remove the food and drinks from the basket, looking up briefly at her to say, "Should've asked the bar for sunglasses."

After a moment she sits down on the blanket near him. "It's okay, not as bad when we're both sitting."

Tony leans over to give her a quick kiss on the neck. He sits up and smiles at her.

[chelleuncurled]

She smiles in return, "So what did the Bar give us?"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Ah, sandwiches. Some fruit. Potato chips...bottled water, ice tea...cookies..." He picks up a sandwich and hands it to her.

[chelleuncurled]

If there's iced tea in that bag it could be love...

She takes the sandwich, "Did the Bar seem odd to you this morning?"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

He nods. "Took forever for me to get our picnic food." He glances over his shoulder. "Something's up with Bernard."

[chelleuncurled]

"What happened?" Michelle looks a little concerned.

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"I really don't know. I know someone died," I was outside when they burried him, "but unless he had a delayed reaction, I don't think that's what's bothering him." He frowns. "I'd talk to him but I'm not sure he'd tell me."

[chelleuncurled]

"Someone died? Was it someone you knew...?"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

He shakes his head. "No."

[chelleuncurled]

"Oh," she takes a bite of her sandwich. "Pass me a drink, please?"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Water or ice tea?"

[chelleuncurled]

"Ice tea," she says with a secretive smile.

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

Tony observes the smile with some amusement as he hands her an ice tea. "What?"

[chelleuncurled]

"It's...that just reminded me of something," she smiles. "Thank you," she takes a sip of the ice tea.

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Of what?"

[chelleuncurled]

"Well if we had that marathon with Chris maybe you'd know."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Ah. Right. X-Files." He grabs a sandwich and starts to eat.

[chelleuncurled]

"Things seem...strange today."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"When are they not strange?"

[chelleuncurled]

She takes another bite and swallows. "I had fun this weekend," she says with another secret smile, although he can probably interpret this one.
