Eat Drink And Be Merry
The trip to Moscow went rather smoothly. With all the kids in the jet, she would have expected some chaos, but after an hour or so in the air, they settled down. Some even slept, which was the best thing they could do with the timezone changes and all. Natasha read reports her nephew sent and had finished the stack of papers by the time they arrived in Moscow in the early morning.

The kids were given a car and driver along with a security detail and were given most of the day to explore Moscow. Natasha spent most of it with her nephew and his finacee. There was a brief meeting with Putin that she somehow managed to get through. Was it bad that she still wanted to shoot the man?

Dinner was a grand affair. A formal banquet with all the trappings and all of the kids were on their best behavior. There wasn't even any bickering between Misha and Anya. Natasha would take the small miracles when she could.

After dinner they retired to their rooms for an hour to change and freshen up. Natasha slipped into her second dress and made a quick call to Tony. Then she headed downstairs to the ballroom.

	"Maybe they don't know it, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't be impressed if they did." He snorted a bit. "Eliza could scare him away all on her own just by the way appliances commit suicide in her presence but she can't live without them. It's the female Romanov trait." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait shrugged. It wasn't a big deal. "I was talking about your sister Anya. I'm still getting used to you having more than one sibling." And Corey dating? Yeah, she didn't want to think about that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You and me both." He half shrugged, but didn't comment on Anya's boyfriend. "Mom rides herd on them as she sees fit. So you directed Corey toward the Winter Guard, but didn't tell him Zemlya's name. That's cruel. They're a little stiff, but nice enough. I like training with them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I'm disappointed in you. I would have expected you to go all big brother on her boyfriend and scare the poor boy away."

Cait grinned. "We're on Grandpa William Manners behavior which means no arguing, no fights, no using powers, no being different or disruptive, but nothing was ever mentioned about subtle tormenting. Once Corey meets him, he's gone and will talk to no one else. I'm doing him a favor by making him socialize."

"The last time I tried to be a protective older brother, my mother blew me off and Anya told me to mind my own business." Then she became the Lady Mandarin, but that wasn't a party topic, or any other sort of topic. "Steve has the advantage of growing up Avenger to remind him what can happen to the unwary male."

Misha nodded toward a man not too far from Mikhail. "That's Zemlya. If I'd been thinking this summer, I could've taken Corey to the Winter Guard compound when James and I spent some time training with them. I even owe the kid. The last few years training with him at Xavier's helped me get through what Zemlya threw at me."

	"I'm glad you didn't. Our mud fights would have become lopsided. It's bad enough he sinks me into the ground up to my neck at times. I don't need him learning any more tricks to use against me. I'm barely able to hold my own and don't tell him I said that either." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I won't. Older siblings have to stick together. Otherwise the squirts will think they win." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait nodded. "And we can't have that happening. Ever. Can I get a dance later?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-11-08 09:22 am UTC (link)
	"You better dance with me later." He kissed her hand in his best Prince Charming imitation. "Don't let anybody talk you into trying the vodka. It's lethal here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-11-08 09:23 am UTC (link)
	"I will and I'm looking forward to it." She smiled when he kissed her hand. "No worries about that. I only drink wine and that's only with meals." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-11-08 09:28 am UTC (link)
	He winked. "Have I mentioned lately how awesomely smart you are? Because you are. You let me know if I have to go big brother on anybody who bothers you here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-11-08 09:30 am UTC (link)
	Cait blushed a deep red. "Thanks." She smiled. "I will. You can have any that I can't fend off." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I so rarely get to flex my Grand Duke muscles, ya know." He thought he saw his mother make a movement away from the happy couple. "I should get the first dance before Mom gets swept away." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-11-08 09:46 am UTC (link)
	"Go dance with your mom. Just remember you owe me a dance." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-11-08 10:00 am UTC (link)
	"As long as you remember you owe me one." He kissed her hand again and moved off to get his dance with Natasha. (Reply to this)(Parent)
