"Gotta keep them guessing," Jamie agrees.

"We will," Alex tells Topher, "Thanks."

"Next, our sweet summer child and youngest of my bunch. Adam."

Permalink

Adam, who looks very much like a high schooler until he stands up and show himself quite tall. "Huh. Welcome." He says, a bit awkwardly.

Permalink

He nods. (It's a pretty awkward situation.)

Permalink

Huh, he'll probably be taller than them if he's still growing. 

"Thanks," he says, "Sweet summer child, huh?"

Permalink

"Having an entirely reasonable age difference between me and my brothers comes with downsides in this family. And dad thinks quoting Game of Thrones is still cool."

Permalink

"You wound me. Anyway, where is Franklyn?"

Permalink

"Taking a shower. I am Morgan. Have they told you stories to make you dread meeting me or something?"

Permalink

Jamie shrugs, "They didn't tell me any stories," any dread is mostly coming from the staring. 

Permalink

"Temple told me some things, but nothing I'd call dreadful, exactly." 

Permalink

"Aw, you wound me, Temple." (Temple rolls his eyes). "Anyway, it is nice meeting you. I promise I will wait until you're settled before loading you up with car-"

Permalink

And from down the hall, there is the sound of someone coming closer and saying "Sorry, sorry! I am ready! I am ready! Did- Oh, they are here." Says a young man floating in the air.

Permalink

Yeah, floating guy steals all of Jamie's attention immediately. 

"Hey! You can fly!" The wind picks up a little around him. 

Permalink

Alex grabs Jamie's arm.

"Jay."

Permalink

"Right, sorry." It's harder to stop himself when the urge sneaks up on him like that. He shakes himself a bit, pushing away the heaviness in his stomach. 

 

"I guess you're Franklyn?"

Permalink

"I am Franklyn, yeah. Maybe we can fly after you are settled? With a ritual from me to you, that is." He stops flying and ironically, now he is taller than the twins.

Permalink

Tol! He gets a slightly starry-eyed look, "That would be great!" 

Permalink

That's everyone, right?

"Where are we staying?"

Permalink

It is. "I will show you. Morgan, you can wait before stuffing them with food."

Permalink

"Alright, alright, but I reserve the right to start cooking right now." He says, leaving for the kitchen.

Permalink

Stephen leads the four of them upstairs. "I am afraid I will have to give them your room, Temple. I am not sure if Felix is alright with you two rooming with Franklyn?"

Permalink

"Absolutely not. Franklyn is a delight."

Permalink

"Ah, sorry?" Jamie offers Temple and Felix.

Permalink

No sneaking around necessary, apparently. And getting to go flying will help Jay sleep, too. 

They settle their things in the room.
