Earning His Keep (right after "Hate Crime")
Angelo hummed to himself as he busied himself about the apartment. This was amazing. The entire city of Manhattan was just outside those windows. Of course, he was living with Gio and Andrew, and had to let them know where he was going if he was to be out for more than just a quick errand.

There were his lessons to keep up on, and learning about the diplomatic work (and the necessary decorum thereof) Gio and Andrew were doing, and at the moment, keeping house. While Andrew's room was off-limits except by request, and Gio needed little in the way of cleaning, the rest of the apartment would be kept spotless under his watch. He'd just finished cleaning the windows when the first timer he'd set went off, and he went to check the oven.

A smile creeped across his face as the apple cinnamon muffins looked to be just about done. He slipped on a mitt and retrieved the tin, setting it on the stove-top to cool.

Gio arrives home and with simply a "Hello, Angelo," rushes straight to her room.

...surely she smelled the muffins. Something was wrong.

Angelo cautiously approaches her room and knocks furtively. "Gio?"

"Coming," she says.

Angelo's concern is visible when she opens the door.

"Something happened." It's a statement more than an inquiry.

"I dislike New York sometimes," she says truthfully as she hands him some of the contents of her bag -- the things she'd been running errands for, other than his birthday present. "I heard certain words bandied about, and it was vexing."

Angelo hesitates, trying to analyze her body language and parsing her words carefully.

For now, he decides to let it be. If he needs to know about it, he'll be told. If it's serious, Andrew will read it off her in a minute and it'll be dealt with.

"How dreadful. May I offer you some fresh muffins?" He smiles. "Mother's recipe."

And now, Gio will properly inhale. "That'd be great."

Angelo smiles and nods, patting a hand on his sister's shoulder. "Yes, they will be. Now go put some water on your face and take a few deep breaths. I won't have you eating my cooking without taking some of the edge off first. Bad thoughts ruin the experience."

There is a pause, then a smirk as he puts a further flourish on the advice. "If you want to eat while stressed, buy McDonalds."

"Rather condescending for someone who's still fifteen for another few hours, mon frere." But she smiles a little.

Angelo blinks. "...what the... Oh! Oh... well.." He bursts into another grin. "Well... so I am."

And soon, she's having muffins and milk.
