That's so cute, Dad.

[Colm doubts this entirely.]

[morethanfaith]

I'm going to bed. Anything else we should be worried about?

[mullvaney]

Just be careful. Things may be shifting and we need to be prepared.

I'm worried about Teabag and Milo, but that's an always thing

[aurapoints]

We know for certain Quinn is Quinn and not a shapeshifter or a replicant, right?

[overlaid]

JR's asleep.

DONE

[allotments]

Glad everyone is accounted for. Now knock it off and get back to your sleeping or your American celebrations

Night.

to the group chat

[A few hours later, when Bairre gets up very early to go do bakery things and is greeted with nearly fifty missed messages in the family group chat:]

Jesus Christ.

[he's not intending to restart the conversation, and instead just sends a message to his brother outside of the group, but he felt his opinion needed to be known on the nonsense you all got up to while he was sleeping.]

group chat

( he only sleeps a few hours a night, it's been like that since he hit puberty. five do him good. so, he's always up first. )

[fullpockets]

I'd like to withdraw my RSVP.

[He didn't ask to be here! But he's glad that all his brothers are in one piece.]

[aurapoints]

HE HAS RISEN

Get it. It's a bread joke.

[fullpockets]

Alright, I'm going to go do my actual adult job. You all have a good day.

[He doesn't have time for bread jokes, he has to go make the bread.]

You and Linds are good? You're sure?

[Because while he will not need to be talked down like his mother, he does want to double check away from the pressure of the family.]

I'm sure, Bar. If she could, she'd literally strong arm the surprisingly brawny nurse to get herself discharged.

You missed all the fireworks. Quinn vouched you were alive.

[fullpockets]

Saw that. And got the vent from Bradan that I usually get when Ma ups things to Defcon 1.

Tell your girl to be nice to the healthcare workers, though. We need those.

[telegraphs]

In her defense, a castle fell on me and all my friends. So to speak.

She's just anxious is all. Can't really blame her.

[fullpockets]

Yeah, well, you know how they rile each other up.

No, guess I can't. Excited to get to New Orleans?

[telegraphs]

We're all rile-able.

Excited isn't the word.

[fullpockets]

[He pauses, big brother senses tingling.]

In a good way or a bad way?

Cami tapped me to be the new head of the human faction. Linds is gung-ho. Wish she were as gung-ho for our upcoming nuptials. I don't know if she wants to get married, Barr.

[fullpockets]

She said yes to the proposal. Pretty sure that means she wants to get married.

[He doesn't know Lindsay incredibly well, but he knows that much about her. She wouldn't waste either of their times by not saying no.]

[telegraphs]

She doesn't want the big to-do. Family troubles. I thought bringing her out to Ireland, meeting everyone. Might assuage her. Deep down I think I knew she'd want something small. But, I pushed.
