"Don't know how you had the patience to learn English," he grumbled.

"Oh, that's also like my second mother tounge. I learned it from 4 onwards. My mother was bilingual," Will smiled proudly and her voice was full of it.
Just because they were dead didn't mean she couldn't be proud of them, right?
"Oh, I miss them!" she smiled slightly.

"Yeah, but Christmas is coming up," Jack reminded her cheerfully. "I can't wait to see Mal."
"I'll see my mother, I suppose," Kira said dreamily, glad it could conceal her inner disgust.

She wandered around the fountain kicking a stone on the ground as she thought.

"Why not?" Jack frowned.
Kira looked up curiously too.

"Well, I don't have the money to get back there and I really don't want to hurt Coashea by been found out, and I don't think they want to come here!" Will replied, slightly sad.
"Ahh, it's not biggy, I'll send them a christmas present and card," she smirked at the present she ahd in mind.

"Mal would kill me if I didn't come home for the holidays," Jack said fervently. "Hey! Maybe he could come here..."
"I'd like to meet him," Kira chirruped. "He sounds... lovely."
Jack grinned.

Aw, gee. Kira smiled weakly at Will from behind Jack's broad shoulders. She didn't get it. Jack practically worshipped Malcolm. Mal had done everything Jack had and more. Jack was constantly in his brother's shadow, and constantly looking up to him. He didn't care that whatever he did, it didn't matter, because Mal had done it first. The way he saw it- it was an honour to be able to follow in Mal's legendary footsteps.
"I think you might've heard of him," Jack said to Will excitadly. "Yeah, you probably have, and just didn't know! He was a Warrior too, like me- fought on the front line every time and came back without a scratch. One time, he charged through a formation, took down about twenty guys, and came back with three Orchid Hill students on his back!"
No doubt an exaggeration... but Jack did have that right...

"Oh yes, I remember now," Will lied. As Jack went about doing something Will gave a slight smile to Kira and mouthed...
Whoosh!

Jack grinned. "Then... awk, you were there, Kira! Day I met Lee and you- remember it clear as anything. Mal was right out there on the rugby field; must've scored at least ten-"
"Three."
"-three tries, and it would've been ten if that ref hadn't been so picky. That last time, when he darn near pile-drived Greg into the ground-"
They let him rant on for several more minutes, until eventually, he seemed to run out of steam, and buttoned his lip meekly.

Will smiled weakly.
"I'm going to go, see ya later!" she waved bye and rushed away.
The common room better not be busy!
