Raven's smile grew a little larger. "And old friend of yours and and old friend of mine."

Laurel frowned deeply, not pleased in the slightest, "Did you ask permission of Cong before you invited more people to stay here? This will not be good for my father." she growled softly.

"They don't know about this place," Raven explained as he added a little more sirup to his pancake. "All they know is that we're in Sweden, and we're going to meet up with them in Stockholm for the day."

Laurel continued to frown, "I can't leave my father." she stated firmly. Bee decided to stay out of this one, getting up to get another pancake.

"Your father has showed great improvement; he will be alright for the day. And if anything out of the ordinary happens Bee will call us, and we'll jump on the first light train back to your father's side." Raven nodded, like he had thought all this through carefully. "Getting out of this house for awhile will do you and, consequently, your father a world of good. Plus, Kandy would be awfully disappointed if you didn't come..."

Laurel blinked at the mention of Kandy, "... You contacted her?" she asked, confused.

Raven nodded, still smiling. "She flew to Sweden to go shopping with us today."

Laurel frowned again, staring at her food as she weighed the idea in her mind. After a long moment, Bee spoke up, "Laurel, I can take care of your father for one afternoon. Don't worry. He won't be alone." she reassured her.

Laurel glanced at Bee before looking back at Raven, "Just... for today." she replied, still a bit wary.

"We'll leave in thirty minutes," Raven replied happily.

Laurel paused again before nodding slightly and going back to her food. Bee winked at Raven before leaving the kitchen to check on Laurel's father.

Before they left, Cong set Laurel up with a wristband that remotely monitored her father. It would vibrate if anything changed worth noting.

Laurel thanked Cong and went silently with Raven into the Juttle. She took a seat in the front beside him and sighed a little, "It's a good thing Wolfe taught you how to fly." she remarked softly as she closed her eyes.

"We're not traveling that far," Raven reassured Laurel with big smile. He had really cleaned himself up for this, and he seemed awfully excited about it. And so he flew the juttle to a large mall in Stockholm. Like he promised, the flight wasn't too long. "You want to give Kandy a call and let her know we're here?" he asked after they had landed.

Laurel blinked, "I... lost my phone." she admitted quietly after a moment.

Raven chuckled a little before handing Laurel his. "No worries today," he reminded her with a wink.

Laurel blinked again, face a bit blank but she took Raven's phone and dialed Kandy's number. All she got out was "Hel-?"

After a few minutes of sitting there silently with the phone to her ear she mumbled, "Mm." and hung up. She handed to phone back to Raven, "She's coming." she explained.
