Brothers
Home, finally. Don was really, really happy to be home. As much as he liked being a member of the Young Justice League, he needed a rest from the recent outbreak of mayhem and crazy. Luckily, good ol' Philly didn't have anything extra to deal with. It was normal, and welcoming. Don took this chance to sit back on the couch and open a book. He was reading his favorite book, The Three Musketeers, by Alexandre Dumas.

	Adam had a break from the crazy too. Deciding to take advantage of the time to relax he had gone out and picked up a couple sandwiches from Geno’s. No one made a better Cheese-Steak, which was just a fact of the universe. He then plopped himself down on the couch to eat them while putting on some ESPN. He had some sports to catch up on.

	"Hey Adam," Don said while flipping a page. He'd grown quite accustomed to multi-tasking. He could read, have a conversation, and listen to ESPN at the same time. He's been doing it for years. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey Don," Adam said through a mouthful of Cheese-Steak. He was hoping Sportscenter might mention something about how the Phillies were looking this year. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How crazy have things been for you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"All things considered not to bad," Adam says, "Had a couple of weird half-pints at the base but that's been about it of late. What about you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I thought you guys were based out of a mountain," Adam says, "Give it time nothing stays quiet for long." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-21 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	"That's true," Don replied. "I just hope it will stay quiet long enough. Anyway, what do you think of your team? Besides Lily?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-21 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	"The team's pretty much all hot girls what's not to like," Adam says grinning happily. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-21 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	Don chuckled. That was just like his brother. "What about that one kid? The Booster Gold knock-off? Isn't he a pain in the neck?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-21 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	"He's not so bad," Adam says, "If you just tune out everything he says he's actually not bad at all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-21 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Good to know," Don said. "Sounds like you've been keeping your anger in check, then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-21 08:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Sheesh," Adam says, "You're almost as bad as Dawn. My anger stuff isn't that out of control you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-21 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not trying to get at you about it, Adam. I just get worried, you know? I'm sure you're the best on your team about keeping your anger in check." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-21 08:34 pm UTC (link)
	"You do know you're my little brother right," Adam says, "Not my older sister. You don't have to worry about me like that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-21 09:56 pm UTC (link)
	"I know. I guess I can try not to worry about you. Lily is there, after all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-21 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes, Lily," Adam says fantasizing a little bit. "But you don't have to worry. Dad isn't." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-23 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	Don laughed at that. "Of course Dad isn't. Only us sane people like Mom and me worry." Sane being a very opinionated term in this household, of course. "So how are things with Lily, anyway?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-23 11:00 pm UTC (link)
	"Sane my ass," Adam says, "You and Dawn just think your saner than the rest of us." "Same old same old," Adam says, "Been great hanging out with her again and boy has she sure grown up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-27 04:19 am UTC (link)
	He laughed at that. "It's true and you know it." Of course, Don knew what was rolling around in his big brother's head. At least, he thought he knew. "You gonna ask her out? Or are you two just stuck in the flirty friends stage?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-27 06:48 am UTC (link)
	"OK if you say so crazy pants," Adams says smirking. "I would but I've gotten the distinct impression she would end up throwing me through a few walls and I've already hit my quota for the month there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-27 05:06 pm UTC (link)
	"How many was that, again? Fifteen, sixteen?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-27 05:09 pm UTC (link)
	"Are we talking brick, plaster, wood or cement?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-27 05:17 pm UTC (link)
	"Brick," Don replied. "You seem to be attracted to bricks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-27 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Then fifteen and a half." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-04-29 06:26 am UTC (link)
	Don snapped his fingers jokingly. "So close," he said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-04-29 07:22 pm UTC (link)
	Adam laughs. "Care to guess for the other ones," He asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-05-05 02:57 pm UTC (link)
	"I want to say... around the same for cement. Double for plaster, and half for wood?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-05-05 05:23 pm UTC (link)
	"Roughly right some are a little off," Adam says with a smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	neutral_ground 2011-05-10 11:25 pm UTC (link)
	Don made a shrug with his hands up. "Can't get 'em all right, I guess," he said. "I think, though, Lily would be good for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	chaosstrength 2011-05-12 06:32 pm UTC (link)
	"Sure she would be," Adam says, "Really are working on your older sister merit badge aren't you." (Reply to this)(Parent)
