This was the most crowded Hannibal could recall being in quite some time. There were several children in the master bedroom, one of whom was apparently his, her other father in another bed in his room (yes, thank you, Angela, but they were not a couple here, and you could stop looking at them like that), and Jono's friends on the pull-out couch in the living room.

On the bright side, it was a built-in audience for breakfast. So Hannibal was brewing some excellent coffee while he worked as quietly as possible at cinnamon polenta pancakes, sweet potato & pork belly hash, rosemary grapefruit, thick-cut bacon, and toast from some very good, dense bread he had.

And mimosas for the adults. He had a feeling they still might need a drink.

"Well, yeah, but he's not the only one here. You might have walked in on, um... something."

Collin couldn't for the life of him figure out just what they might have walked in on that smelled mostly like pancakes, but, you know, there was no telling when Uncle Jono was involved.

"Oh." Kayla's face fell and her lip curled. "Like at home with Mommy and Daddy."

The children had learned from an early age to walk loudly and to knock when they entered even public rooms. If she were older, Kayla would have called them disgraceful.

"But it's Unca Jommo."

"Well, yeah," Collin agreed. "But I don't think it's Uncle Jon's room, so we still have to be polite and knock, even if he's inside. It just takes a moment more, and we get yelled at for it way less."

"You didn't know. Even with your big, fat head!"

Burn!

That didn't even make any sense!

"I'm surprised you could even sort Uncle Jon's psychic scent out around how smelly you are," Collin countered, because he was completely mature, shut up.

"That's not me bein' stinky, that's you!" Kayla announced. "You just can't tell cause you're in a cloud of stinkiness. It smells like your butt!"

High brow debate right here.

"Yeah, right. Like I can even breathe well enough to smell my own butt with the cloud of featherdust you leave trailing behind wherever you go? Someday you'll have a Court of your own and they'll just spend the whole time protecting and sneezing."

Collin wasn't even going to try to play fair. This was the only time he'd ever have a leg up on her, he was going to take it.

"They will not!" Kayla protested, horrified. "You are a horrible, horrible boy an' you're a stinky-stinkbutt and your face looks like throwup!"

BREAKING OUT THE BIG GUNS NOW.

"I'm gonna tell Unca Jommo on you!"

*UNCA JOMMO TELL NOMMY TO STOP BEING MEAN TO ME!*

//Er?//

What was Jonothon being dragged into, now?

//Collin, stop pestering your sister.// Seriously, how was this his life? //Apologize for... whatever you did.//

Collin, properly chastised, could only see one obvious thing to be done, here.

"Oh, well, in that case. I'm suh... soh... ssss... sooorACHOO!"

The only thing to be done, of course, was to troll.

"THAT WASN'T A REAL SNEEZE! UNCA JOMMO, TELL HIM TO STOP PRETENDING TO SNEEZE!"

//Faking sneezes just makes me feel left out, Collin,// Jono reported dutifully from where he was attempting to carry on a conversation with Karla about grapes. //If you would be so kind...//

"Kayla," Karla called to her daughter, her voice carrying a wealth of warning. "Do you need to take a nap? You sound like you might be overtired..."

"I think she might, Mom," Collin replied gravely. "It's been a busy morning for such a little Kayla, after all."

He was just looking out for the health and well-being of his big baby sister.

Kayla turned an impotently furious look at her brother. His shins were currently safe from her shoes right now and they both knew it. Being 'overtired' meant that anything they did that their parents disapproved of was grounds to be told to go lay down.

"Only reason it's been so busy is cause Nommy broke the mikerwave," she grumbled. "And then spent the rest of the morning bein' mean."

"Now, Kayla," Karla reproved. "I'm sure Nommy has just been trying to take care of you. He didn't expect to have to babysit for his little sister this weekend."

Karla was clearly THE WORST.

The absolute worst, in fact.

"S'not true!" Kayla wailed, her face crumpling. "He's not s'posed to be bigger! And he's mean and smells like a butt!"

"My butt smells like a butt," Collin replied. "Like a very clean one. It's almost time for a molt. I was good and actually showered this morning."

Be proud of him, Mom. He was way better at getting his wings wet than his father was.

"Kayla!" Karla snapped, looking decidedly angry now. "You must be exhausted if you think that name-calling is appropriate behavior!"
