Happy Easter and Happy Birthday
Easter and Mom's birthday fell on the same day this year and Anya headed to New York to celebrate with the family. Mom was always had to shop for and this year was no exception. Anya went with a gift certificate for babysitting for a weekend and Anya had a necklace made with the birthstones of the three kids.

She arrived in the early afternoon and while Mom and Dad were busy chasing Nick around Anya went to catch up with Prince Dork.

Misha was hunting for a beer in the fridge when Anya arrived. His gift to Mom, the easiest person in the world to shop for in his opinion, was on a side table waiting for the big unveiling. Not that it was a big deal. Mom liked good chocolate and spa time. At least, that's what she said when he asked her what she wanted for her birthday or Christmas.

He found one, a lonely bottle in the back waiting for him to come back and drink it like he had the other five in a previous visit, and toasted Anya with it when she pushed open the kitchen door. "Hey there, Brat."

	"Hey Prince Dork," she said when she saw him. She gave him a hug and cheek kiss. "Grabbing that last beer in there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, but I'll share." He hugged her in one arm, protecting the beer in the other hand. Give a redhead an inch... "Glad to see you arrived in one piece. How's Boston? Still baked?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-09 12:10 am UTC (link)
	"Baked as a bean," she said with a grin. She grabbed a glass and went for some water. "It's good. Got some new people on the team and we're all settling in. How's life with the B-Team?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-09 12:12 am UTC (link)
	"I dunno, you haven't invited me to visit lately," he countered. "And I haven't checked in with the other B-team, but the A-team is just fine, thank you very much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-09 12:19 am UTC (link)
	She nudged him with an elbow. "You always have an open invitation to visit." She chuckled. They would always have the rivalry between their teams going. If it stopped she would wonder what's wrong with him. "How are you doing? I haven't read anything in the tabloids lately," she teased. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They forget what I look like," he said with a straight face. "Whole days go by without a camera stuck in my face and somebody asking me who I'm dating now and does my sister know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Speaking of dates, did you ever have dinner with Toni?" Anya asked with a perfectly straight face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-09 02:03 am UTC (link)
	"Checking up on me or your best friend?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-09 02:13 am UTC (link)
	Anya smiled. "Both?" He didn't know that she was the one who had arranged the dinner while she had been in Toni's body. Judging by his reaction she knew Toni hadn't told him. "Well? Did you go?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-09 02:15 am UTC (link)
	"Not yet. We'll get around to it. Toni's good company, I don't mind having dinner with her. We can grouch about you when there's nothing left to talk about." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-09 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	"I suppose it would be useless to say that you're not allowed to talk about me, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-10 05:55 am UTC (link)
	"Totally useless. Relax, Brat. I'm pretty sure we can find other things to talk about." Misha poked her in the side. "What are you afraid I'll find out?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-10 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Nothing at all," she said. "More like you telling Toni stories and her holding those over me. Like she does with the cereal incident." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-10 04:20 pm UTC (link)
	"How many people can burn cereal? I think you'd be a shoo-in for that Worst Cooks show. You could even do it for charity." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-10 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Hey, if they ever have a celebrity charity show, I will do it. Though you do know I would be washed out in the first round if I don't burn the studio before then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-11 03:36 pm UTC (link)
	"It's good you can use your celebrity for good instead of evil." He paused to finish his beer. "Nobody else is bothering you? No one lurking in around corners or looking suspicious?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-11 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	"But evil's /much/ more fun," Anya said with a large grin. "No. Besides the company and two new members, things have been quiet. What about you? Girls chasing you? Paparazzi?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-13 03:52 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not as interesting or as visible as you are," he pointed out with a smile and a headshake. "I'll have to move out of Xavier's when they do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Uh huh. Have you seen some of the websites dedicated to you out there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-17 03:34 pm UTC (link)
	"Don't remind me, I'm trying to forget they exist! How do /you/ know they're out there? Did you set some of them up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-17 04:25 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm hurt that you would even think that I set some of them up," she said in a little mocking tone. "I would never do that to you. Though for the right price I can take those sites down." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-26 04:02 pm UTC (link)
	"A price? Not out of the kindness of your heart?" He grinned. "I did suspect you. Some of those pictures they have up aren't what I would call public photos. Some of the kids at the mansion like to see what's new and report back. Although, if one of /them/ are selling pictures, I'll have to do something mean and nasty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-26 04:04 pm UTC (link)
	"As much as I love to torment you, I'd never sell or release pictures to the public. It's hard enough for us to deal with the paparazzi." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-04-26 04:28 pm UTC (link)
	"It's easier for you, Brat. You've always been in the public eye. I only had brushes with it when Mom took us out on vacation or at the Stark parties. I really don't know how you stayed sane all these years with it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-04-26 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	"I've learned to block them out for the most part. Or I just got used to it. I don't know which is worse." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-08 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	"Both. Do you think they're hiding more beer anywhere?" He opened the refrigerator for another look. "By the way, thanks to your bestest friend, I'm down one set of armor. Any chance of getting a rebuild?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She has a knack for destroying suits. Let me take a guess...EMP fried it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-08 11:56 pm UTC (link)
	"Yep." He closed the door with a sigh. "She's pretty dangerous when she gets rolling. I could've sworn I heard the onboard computer beg for mercy when it hit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-08 11:59 pm UTC (link)
	"I know. I'll work on it," she said. Though she knew she was going to end up building a new one instead of fixing. His suit was an old model and it needed upgrades. Why upgrade when you can build new? "Did the two of you have dinner yet?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Why are you so interested? Planning to sabotage it so we never get around to comparing notes on you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-09 01:53 am UTC (link)
	"No. Just curious. That's all. I went through the trouble of setting it up and you can at least tell me if you went or not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-09 02:37 am UTC (link)
	"Hey, it was Toni who asked me out to dinner. She hasn't set a date for it either." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-09 03:18 am UTC (link)
	"I thought I...she set a date and time when she made the arrangements." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aha! You're up to something! I knew it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-09 03:58 am UTC (link)
	"Me? Do I look like the type who is up to something?" She feigned an innocent look. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-11 03:57 pm UTC (link)
	"If you're not up to something, you're not breathing," he accused, shaking a finger at her. "We've been busy, but we're going to have dinner. Don't worry, I'm not going to add your best friend to my list of beloved wives. She'll still be your staunch cohort when we're done." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-11 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not worried," she assured him. "You and Toni can do what you want." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-12 04:12 am UTC (link)
	"Why do I get the idea that you're trying to hand one of us off to the other on a silver platter?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-12 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	"Not at all," she said with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-13 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"The smile doesn't fool me, Brat." He leaned against the kitchen counter and folded his arms. "Mom's birthday reminds me that we really need to visit Grandpa Ivan. I wish he'd come back to New York." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-13 12:10 am UTC (link)
	"The trip would be too hard on him," Anya said. "He is in his nineties. Take a weekend and come with me to visit him. He'd love an unexpected visit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-13 12:26 am UTC (link)
	"He was in his nineties when the whole crazy royal thing started. Don't know why he didn't come back when we all bugged out, or when Mom had Nick. If old age makes you break down fast, I think I'll skip it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-13 12:37 am UTC (link)
	Anya patted his cheek. "I see senility is setting in early for you. Grandpa Ivan was there for Nick's birth. It's okay. We'll all still love you when you're completely senile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-13 12:44 am UTC (link)
	Misha dramatically sighed. "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2012-05-13 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	Anya giggled. She kissed his cheek. "We still love you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-05-28 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	He grinned. "If we were smart, and trusted, we could've taken Nick out and let Mom have her birthday without the chasing-the-brat fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)
