Thanks. [Athena closes the door behind them and follows Joan into the house. It’s a nicely built place, though sparsely furnished since all of Athena’s and Tim’s belongings were brought over from the apartment.
An old couch, an armchair, and a TV make up the furnishings of the main room. There’s a little nest of blankets piled onto the couch -- Athena’s found that the cold of death tends to linger, even after being alive for a couple of days. Her wings fold snugly against her back and she sits down, giving Joan a small nod to do the same.]
So… [Athena tries to keep her tone casual, despite the tension she can sense from Joan.] There was something you wanted to tell me?
