| Nakia sighed.
"Him being attached to me just spells trouble, really. Considering the age gap, and the fact that he's mortal." She said.

| "Well, you tell him that." he replied, as they watched Leo play around with the children.
"Something tells me he's not too overly concerned with that."

|
| "Yeah yeah." Nakia said almost flippantly.
"Oh! While I'm here, is there anything that I should be aware of? Like, anything that needs to be fixed, or what have you?"

|
| "Oh, right." he said, as though remembering something.
"The microwave's on the fritz. The screen isn't displaying, and the motor's making strange noises." he told her.
Leo seemed to overhear that, and looked over to them.
"Can I have a chance to fix it?" he asked.
"You've got nothing to lose, really, and I like to tinker." he explained.

|
| Nakia looked to Leo and shrugged.
"As long as you don't fry yourself in the process. Feel free. If it's already needing to be replaced, there's no harm." She told him simply.

|
| His eyes brightened up like never before, like he was a child in a toy shop.
"Awesome!" he exclaimed.
"I'll see if I can have it fixed by tomorrow!" he said proudly.
"...huh. Boy's got some tech bug in him." Basil commented with a chuckle.

| Nakia just chuckled.
"I know. He's toyed around with a few things that I brought him for him before, so don't be surprised if he gets it actually working."

"What all have you brought him to fix?" he asked further.

| "Oh nothing major. Just my PDA, and cell, on two different occassions." Nakia told him with a chuckle.
"He'll be able to fix it up pretty well, I'ms ure. "

| He chuckled as well.
"Well then... we'll see if the boy can repair that decrepit old microwave." he said.
"It's a relic now... over 5 years old, and with daily use."

| "Depending on what he does to it, I'm planning on buying a new one, regardless." She told him with a chuckle.
"You should have told me that it was in rough shape before now. I would haave bought a new one by now."

| "I always forgot." he admitted with a sheepish expression.
"It came to light when I was nuking some soup for Sara and Tara, and the display died after it was done." he added.

"At least I know about it now." She added.

| At that point, Leo had brought the microwave over, and smiled.
"Nakia, am I going to be doing any actual volunteer work here today?" he asked her.
"Or does it start tomorrow?"

"Come on, I'll give you a ride home." She said with a smile.
