Yeah, just... Trying to get used to this whole having people worry about me thing, okay?

[protective_logic]

Yeah. That has to be really hard. But it is what family does, Beta. We worry about each other. We take care of each other. We support each other when no one else will. It's about unity and circular logic and the way people argue over waffles. That's life.

[soldierinblack]

I'm figuring it out as I go. Haven't had a chance to argue about waffles yet, though.

[protective_logic]

Well... chocolate chips are NOT an abomination.

[soldierinblack]

...I wasn't asking to argue about them right now. Who the hell hates chocolate chips enough to call them that?

[protective_logic]

They don't hate them because they are chocolate chips, but because they're in the waffles. Or pancakes.

[soldierinblack]

I don't know why you'd want something that sweet for breakfast.

[protective_logic]

It's... dark chocolate if it helps.

[soldierinblack]

If it's real dark chocolate then it helps. A little.

[protective_logic]

Well, they aren't real ones, but they're good. Not too sweet.

[soldierinblack]

I tend to go with more protein for breakfast.

[protective_logic]

The littles see pancakes as a treat. I see it as a way to get more fiber and less sugar into them.

[soldierinblack]

So what, you keep the syrup away from them then?

[protective_logic]

No, but they are only allowed to have so much. And only on the weekends.

[soldierinblack]

Good. We've got a rule going when they're over that they have to eat their vegetables if they want a cookie after dinner.

[protective_logic]

Florida's been imposing it here. It might be a really good idea. But their pouting...

[soldierinblack]

They're five. They're going to pout so long as they know you'll cave. They don't need to be so picky about what food they eat.

[protective_logic]

They have a pretty serious example in Omega's loathing of white cheeses and my previous medical avoidance of spicy.

[soldierinblack]

Doesn't mean you need them to be picky about everything else. The veggies will do them good.

[protective_logic]

True. It's just been hard to get them to do it. We didn't have sufficient bribes before.

[soldierinblack]

Hell, I was going to make them do it without a bribe. Florida's the one that started offering cookies.

[protective_logic]

When Omega's back I'll want to talk to you both about how to get them to eat their veggies without bribes.

[soldierinblack]

Okay, but you might not like how to do it.

[protective_logic]

I never said we were good parents. Just that we tried our hardest.

[soldierinblack]

I know. You've done damn good and I'm figuring this crap out myself.

Which reminds me, I needed to ask you what you guys do with the twins on weekends. Florida and I were talking about keeping them for a whole weekend sometime and wanted to make sure we had enough to keep them entertained.
