[It's not so much she's confused, but rather...protective of Victor, and maybe a bit jealous? She doesn't want her not!dad to be taken away by anyone else! Jim could turn evil if he's a not!step-parent!
...but Regina was a step-parent, and went from bad to good. So...maybe there's hope for Jim.]
But he could hurt Victor, and he deserves someone great! I mean, I don't know what Victor's told him about his world or anything, but to someone else it could sound crazy--and I don't want that for him.
[ that's cute, in a way. he gets the protectiveness and even nods in understanding. ]
Well, Victor is a grown up and can make his own decisions. I'm sure it'll be fine, though. You've got enough to worry about without worrying about the lovelives of adults.
[Hey, she would be doing the same to you, Nico. If Nico fancied someone, she would get protective, because as Nico said--falling in love hurts. Or...did he warn her to not fall in love? Something along those lines.]
But he's my adult. He's the one taking care of me, and I love him a lot. I don't want something to happen to him.
[She looks at Nico with something close to a pleading look in her eyes.]
How can I find out if he's good enough for Victor and won't hurt him?
[ since meeting tj, he's begun to change his mind on love. he still feels like it sucks on most days, but when he's around tj, it's definitely not so bad. ]
I believe you. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to him either.
[ a sigh, because this really isn't his area of expertise. he's been burnt by love too many times to give good advice, so he shakes his head. ]
I'm not sure. If he isn't, just be there for Victor if he gets hurt. That's all you can really do.

[No, no, there has to be another way or something!]
Can't we interview him? Maybe have a zombie hold Jim down and give him truth serum like in those wizard books?
[Less interviewing more like...interrogation, but the idea is the same--she wants to make sure Victor doesn't get hurt.]
no subject
Uh... yeah, even if I were to do that, which I wouldn't, I don't even know how to make truth serum.
no subject
I could figure one out! Or, maybe ask one of the other Gods if they know how to make one?
[Look, her mood has gone from sadness to something more...lively. At least she's not thinking about Emma and being sad about that.]
Come on, I'll buy a burger--or burgers and fries for the zombie.
