"Oof!" Tamsin grunted,as Bo plopped the Valkyrie onto their rickety sofa. "I swear, the next time you put your hands on me,-"
"Hey!" Bo yelled, handsflying onto her hips. "Take it down a couple notches. You should be so lucky to even be here!"
Tamsin huffed, mulling over what the woman had just said. To be quite honest, she had no idea what she was talking about. She recognized the two women, one more than the other, but could barely remember any history they'd had together. She turned to the smaller woman who gave her a nonchalant look. Turning back to Bo, she knew she had clueless written across her forehead.
Bo let out a chuckle, "Great, she doesn't remember. Well, Kenz, looks like we can take her somewhere else."
The smaller woman moved to sit in front of the Valkyrie. Looking her over, Kenzi saw the slight difference in size. Attitude was intact, based on the sneer the young woman had plastered across her face.
"Nada, Zilch!" Kenzi said, throwing her hands in the air.
"Alright, settled then. We take her somewhere else." Bo said.
"I'm right here you know, I can hear just fine." Tamsin snarled.
"And where might that be?" Kenzi asked, crossing her arms, when her best friend failed to come upwitha valid answer. "We can't just leave her on the side of the road, Bo-Bo."
Bo furrowed her brow in frustration. "Ugh, fine! But she's your responsibility."
"Hells yeah! Officer Slamsin is back!" Kenzi exclaimed happily, giddiness radiating off her body. "Well, I guess not Officer anymore."
Tamsin was quiet for most of the time that the conversation had gone on. Off the bat, she knew she must have done something to scorn the Succubus in her past life to gain that kind of reaction. Even then, angry and all, she found Bo to be beautiful. Both women were, it was just a matter of getting her memories back and knowing where she stood with each.
Bo's cellphone vibrated at that moment.
"Would you mind giving Dyson a call, Kenz? Lauren wants me to head over to run some... tests." Bo asked sweetly.
"Yeah, yeah, bestie. Go get some Doctor lovin'!" Kenzi laughed as Bo gave her a meaningful look.
"You are with child!" She whispered sharply, slinking out of the door.
"So not a child!" Tamsin responded to her, crossing her arms and turning back to the other woman, who was staring at her again. "What are you lookin' at, Short stack?"
Kenzi smiled, attacking the woman with a hug. "You called me Short stack!"
"Uh..." Tamsin said, body tense. She gave a few pity pats to the woman, just to get her to loosen her death grip.
Kenzi knew she probably didn't remember much of her, but she knew loads about the Valkyrie, so her reaction to hugging wasn't a surprise. She wouldn't want to overwhelm her, but she was happy that she had her back, even with the smaller stature and no memories. They'd just have to make new ones.
"So, I can take you shoppingfor some clothes. I know your style is way better than that." Kenzi said jokingly as she eyed the clothes she was wearing. "And we can room together! Or y'know, you can take the couch..."
Tamsin noticed the sadness at the end of her sentence and figured they'd been close. She liked the spunk the girl had to her and she didn't see why they couldn't room together for the time being.
"Kenzi, I would like to accept your offer of roommate." Tamsin said softly, watching the woman smile brightly.
"It'll be great,I promise." Kenzi said, hugging her knees. She wanted Tamsin to feel welcome, knowing the woman before had a tendency to run off when she felt overwhelmed. She didn't want to lose her again.
"So,how old are you anyway? Not to be rude." Kenzi asked.
"Well, I'm over 400 years old,I can tell you that much. But physically, I'd say 17 or 18, solely based on my boobs."
"Huh, that's a mighty fine talent you got there, Tams." Kenzi said.
"Was that another boob joke or a compliment?" Tamsin asked with a confused look on her face.
"Um, let's just call it a joke. I'm straight, mostly. Except for that one time where I kissed Bo in prison." Kenzi smiled. A girl can't complain, y'know."
"She's been to prison?!" Tamsin asked.
"Well, kind of. We're were on a covert mission. I got to wear my monster truck thong!" Kenzi laughed. "Ah, good times. The adventures of Kenz and Bo-Bo, coming to a theater near you!"
"So, Bo..." Tamsin started.
Kenzi felt the train wreck coming. It would have come, sooner or later. She preferred later.
"I think we should probably ease into that topic. Maybe when you're older. She's not exactly PG-13." Kenzi said softly.
"Um, I'm old enough to be your great, great, great grandmother. I think I can deal." Tamsin snorted.
"How 'bout this? I tell you tonight. And we go shopping, huh?" Kenzi smiled.
Tamsin gave her a strange look, but couldn't say no to that. "Yeah, sure." She smiled.
"Alright, let's get you out of those scrubs! Keep the jacket, trust me." Kenzi said, pulling the young Valkyrie up and out the door.
A/N: Alright, a little development for these two. Some may find the whole "Mom" dynamic from the show, but I much prefer where this is going.
Anyway, there will be hard times ahead for everyone involved, in different ways. I hope you enjoyed this bit. It may be a little short, but next chapter will be coming soon. Tamsin will learn about Bo and her death and more Theivyrie times.
I hope you enjoyed and please drop a review with your thoughts. It helps a lot! :)
