Another Trip Around the Sun
Dad's birthday. Probably one of the few days of the year Anya never looked forward to. She loved spending time with her father and loved celebrating his birthday, but the man was IMPOSSIBLE to get gifts for. What did you get the man who has everything and if he did't have it he probably didn't want it in the first place? It was a dilemma she faced three times a year; dad's birthday, father's day and Christmas.

This year had proven extremely difficult. Anya would swear it got harder each time she had to get him something.

This year it had been a group effort. The kids, all four of them, worked together and got him something. It was sappy and a bit cheesy, just the type of thing Dad ate up.

Lunch had been scheduled and the location given to them by Mom. Informal and relaxed and best of all, burgers! It was the one food the whole family could agree on without arguments.

Anya was the first to arrive at DBGB Kitchen and Bar on 299 Bowery between Hudson and 1st. It had some of the best burgers in the city and it was the perfect place for a Romanov-Stark lunch.

	"Unless you count bad drivers?" Eliza chuckles and shrugs leaning her elbows on the table as she watches Anya hand the gift over. She is excited but it isn't obvious. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Now kids, this city is full of gifts," he says - scaring himself a little about how Ozzie Nelson that sounded. He carefully unwraps his gift. "If the waiter comes, Anya, order for me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"The usual?" she asked. Food was one of the areas where Starks could be predictable. It was in everything else where they weren't.

When Tony gets the gift unwrapped he'll find a digital picture frame with photos already in it.

The first picture was a professional picture of all the kids. The next four were more professional pictures, but this time the kids were being silly. There was one where they all had clown noses on, one where they were giving each other bunny ears and two more with them being silly.

The rest of the pictures were various candid shots of each of the kids as they went about their lives. There were one or two of the girls in robes and their faces covered with night cream.

"It's corny, but you like corny," Anya said as she flagged a waitress down. Best order and get food before the natives get restless. "Not to mention you're impossible to shop for."

	"It was totally Anya's idea if you don't like it, but it was totally my idea if you like it," James said with a smirk. He was totally kidding of course. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It was both Anya and James. Eliza and I are innocent bystanders," Misha deadpanned. "We followed orders." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-04 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	Eliza blushes a little. "I wasn't sure if you had different tastes from the Tony I grew up knowing." She fiddles with her straw then moves right on. "I still can't believe James caught me in that picture. The one time I forgot something." She rolls her eyes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You are far from innocent," Anya shot back at her brother. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can be sneaky when I want to be," he grinned at his sister. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Probably, Eliza," he admits quietly touching the frame. "I didn't grow up to be who I expected to be." He then catches James in a quick noogie, while saying, "And yes, I am horrible to shop for." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha caught the waitress' eye and made a small gesture with his bottle to get another beer. "All dads are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James squirmed while Tony gave him a noogie and then rubbed the spot afterward. "I leave the shopping to the professionals. Mom and Anya." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya ordered a burger with the works for her and her father. "I learned from the best," Anya said with a grin. "So, to get it over with, school's fine and I'm getting perfect grades. I hate living up there. That's about it. Life's pretty boring lately." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	""Since Anya knows the drill, what about the rest of you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"School's fine. I'm still helping out at the community center and being an Avenger." And playing video games, but that was a given. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-06 04:37 am UTC (link)
	Same drill, even if Mom wasn't here. "Thanks to Xavier's hard work, the redheads are still safe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Um. I'm doing okay with the course work that home school program is sending me. They want me to do some more math which is fine and I'm starting to think about college," Eliza says with a shrug. Math was never her best thing so she had no idea why they wanted her to do Trigonometry. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stark_inc 2009-12-06 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Does that mean you need help with math?" Yes, he honed in on that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-06 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	"I might. I can learn everything else from the books just fine. I can't teach myself math though," she admits with a shrug. "I'll do okay if someone goes over it with me... otherwise I think I might make whoever has to correct it all cry." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Take him up on the offer," Anya said. "He's a great teacher." Some of her earliest and fondest memories were sitting with Dad and learning math and physics. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha asked for his favorite burger, extra bacon, extra cheese, extra fries. Abusing his arteries is one of the mutant perks he enjoys. "Sounds like a good deal." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-07 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"Oh!" She blinks and just grins feeling very silly. "Thanks." She is looking forward to the bacon mushroom Swiss burger she orders. She gets the extra fries because she needs the extra food for latter when she either hits the books for dives into training again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James ordered two burgers and extra fries. Hey, he was hungry. (Reply to this)(Parent)
