Brothers From Another.... Father

He'd met his parents. He'd met Anya. It was finally time to meet his brother. Harvey had gotten it set up through Pepper. Harvey waited for his alternate universe brother at the same coffee shop he'd talked with Anya.

"Mom always said I wasn't allowed to make short jokes. I'm too tall to have the right perspective, she said." He chuckled at that. He made short jokes anyway, and they always had a big laugh about it.

"Steak is the best type of meat there is," he replied. "I'd be happy to. John pretty much lets me flex my hours to my liking, so I always have time."

He smirked.

"God bless vegetarians for being strong enough to resist steak, because I sure can't."

"Yeah, that just /sounds/ like something Mom would say." Justin laughs.

"The last time I made a crack about her height, she she pulled my ear and then asked me who was taller. It was funny after the pain stopped." he says.

"I hear you on that. My girlfriend was a vegetarian when we met, but after about the second cheeseburger I made her watch me eat, she got curious. She hasn't converted completely, but she'll have one sometimes."

	Harvey rubbed his ear while laughing, remembering the times when his ear got pulled on, too. They were from two completely different worlds, but that didn't stop them from having a lot in common. It was so weird, but also so relieving. "Your girlfriend sounds like a tough one," Harvey replied. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She is, man. She's gone through some pretty bad stuff, like us, but she's still a good person." Justin says. "Did you have any brothers or sisters where you're from?" Justin asks. "I grew up an only child in the strictest sense of the words. No other adult I knew had children so they all kind of adopted me." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Never had siblings," he replied. "I can't say I didn't want any, but I think it was better that I didn't have any. Mom was too afraid to get pregnant again after she almost lost me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I sort of know where you're coming from with that." Justin says. "I was born with a heart condition; between that and all of the issues with our world, Mom and Dad weren't really able to expand the family." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Harvey was quiet for a moment. "I guess she just can't cut a break in any universe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah. She and Tony don't seem to get a lot of breaks, which is why I'm glad they're both happy here." Justin says. He goes for a shiny change-of-topic. "Is there anything else you want to know about me or the family you've walked into? I don't want to leave you with any unanswered questions." Justin says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There is one thing I want to know, yeah. You said Tony tried to connect with you, right? Do you think he would be receptive if me? I... sort of have something I want to ask him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Tony and I have been working on getting to know each other, and things are good. He's not ever going to be my Uncle Tony, just because he's not really that kind of guy." Justin says.

"But yeah, I think he'd be willing to talk to meet with you, man. He's been through the alternate-dimensional relative thing before. In fact, he just got another one a couple of months ago, but Anya probably told you that." Justin says.

"Mom, Anya or I could set you up with a meeting if you wanted to talk to him." Justin offers.

	That sets off a little bit of an alarm in Justin's head. "Hey, is everything all right, Harvey? Do you need something? I mean, we could probably get you in to see him as soon as possible, but if it's something you need right away, I'll help if I can." Justin says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thanks, Harvey. I might need to take you up on that sooner than you think." Justin says. (Reply to this)(Parent)
