There's a old joke the girls in upper level chemistry at Star U used to live by: If you can bake a cake, you can make a bomb! It was normally accompanied by a picture out of some '50's magazine of a woman looking ungodly chipper. Today the opposite was true and needed. Tara's facination with science started at 4 years old when she watched Antenata Rosa, her mother's mom, make bread. The yeast just grew and grew...After that was crystal growing with the blueing agent and a host of other silly childhood wonders. But nothing beat cooking.

She was told the Lanterns were coming. She secretly saved the largest steak in the bunch for Travis.

Travis smiles, settling back and waiting for his steak and eggs. Damn that smells good. "Yeah, I think you'd do great in the JSA. We'd need to get you a costume though. As for the rest of that... yeah, yeah I do. Heck, I'd invite you back to my place, but you seem like you have work to do here, and the second I get near my bed, I'm going to be out. What're you up to tomorrow night?"

Mind goes blank again. She sort of likes that mental interrupt effect he has...up until part of her mind starts wonder how much of an invite that is. She's not sure she's ready. What she does know and trust is that Travis won't push the issue.

"I'd love to. Also, I want to see how Guy evolved." she hands him two plates. One to each hand to keep them off each other at the moment. Good plan...

"Get these. Get some sleep. Recharge however you have to. I'll be here, waiting for the call." She kisses him lightly before he goes. Visions of tickle attacks and lab tables dancing in her head.

He said he'd give her time. And so he will, much as he wants to jump on that hesitation and invite her back, even if it'd just be falling asleep the second he got there. "Just don't work too hard, huh? You've got a big date tomorrow." he adds with a smile, before digging into the best meal he's ever had.
