Sam chuckles, his open face holding a semi-rueful grin. "Yeah, kinda. I've been here a lot with 'Bee and the kids."

There's a small beep, and Honey opens her optics and turns her head, then gives a happy squeal when she sees the humans.

And Sam's face lights right up as he holds out his arms. "Heyya, Honey! Wanna come see Uncle Sam?"

The fact that the sparkling's taller than him by a few inches doesn't seem to have regestered at all.

Sweet Primus, Gen gives Bee a genuine smile when she heads out! Miracles do happen!

"So, Sam, right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the females of this planet supposed to stay at home and mind the younglings while the males go out and do 'man's work?'" She grins and winks, her tone teasing. "Bit of a role-reversal here, if you ask me."

"You mean Earth?" He grins as he reaches up to try and convince Honey to stop making his hair stand on end with gentle rufflings. "Nahh, that was a long time ago. Now we just do whatever fits with us. Besides, they probably wanted to girl-talk."

Honey giggles and razzes.

"Girl talk, huh?" Gen reaches over and lightly tickles Honey. "I've heard of it, but never really learned what it is."

"It's scary stuff," says Sam earnestly, his grin twitching out again as Honey once more ruffles his hair.

She lifts an optic ridge. "Define 'scary.'"

"As in finding out secrets about yourself that even you didn't know scary. Or finding out exactly who makes the cute guys list. Or hearing long discussions about your own butt." Sam looks a little freaked as he says all this. Honey laughs at him.

Gen blinks as she takes a moment to process that. "I still don't quite get it, but if it makes you feel any better, the voice in my head agrees with you."

"Voice in your head?" He looks up alertly.

[silenceandpsych.livejournal.com]

"Yeah." Gen gives Sam a rueful smile. "We've usually kept quiet about it, but right now we don't see that much of a point," she says with a shrug.

For a few seconds she looks elsewhere, as though listening to something Sam cannot hear. "He says 'hi,' by the way."
