re you. In a different way. You're both too funny sometimes. Lukas says everything he means, even when he doesn't understand, and that's a lot. So please watch out and don't let him be sad like that when he sneaks back with Cap or to your mama."

Sometimes, as sad and brain-damaged as this kid is, I don't think he's really 6 years old. Aiya my head. Someone go invent aspirin.

"Fine fine, I'll watch out for when Lukas makes a break for it. Might as well. You two are everywhere now. Ah, but he better not play tricks with my mother like you do or-"

"You're funny. Did you get tricked? That's why your mama likes making you all mad and jealous. You make funny faces. And your papa loses and gets weird? She likes it a lot. "

Oh. Well....that actually makes a lot of sense. Knowing mother and the strange advice she hears, and misinterprets. Well not like it affects me, only my sister and loser of a father gets anything like jealous. Oh hoho...ah that wasn't actually very funny.

"I'm going I'm going, don't pull my ear off!" Yuna scrambles, suddenly picking up a bread basket in one arm and Amar in another.

"Not with dirty hair like that you won't, - oh god why is Amar shaking like some rich woman's little dog? That's not how you carry a kid, let alone one that just ate. He's going to throw up! Give him here. No not the basket, the kid!"

"For a normie you sure are crazy! Anyone ever tell you're perfect for the house Ventrella?"

"You think you can walk away like that?! Maids! Draw the bath! Don't let that trash-talking blond brat go till he's sparkling clean and decent! Soap his mouth while you're at it."

"You can't just tell me what to do- wait Amar, where are you going? You're seriously not siding with him?! Why the hell does Vincent even like- Wait, ack Georgie you turd watch the -ow why do you always go for the ear?"

"Did no one ever teach you manners?!"

"More than you!"

Sitting innocently on the fresh cart behind Georgie is a whole pot of that delectable porridge. Something that would lure away the hearts of all kids and foodies. Its deliciousness perfect to drown out the circus going on around the room.

My family is surprisingly, and shadily, absent. I have even more things to ask grampa about. I maybe used magic?! My babysitters bickering like a dog fight. I think my sister might actually be a more trainable dog than human at this current point. I still have a stupid fiance and the horrible deepening plot that comes with it. And all my minions are a lot more trouble than they're worth.

Great. It's a lot to juggle, but I'm not Rosalia Ventrella for nothing.

At least it's never boring around here. Now pass me a bowl of that good stuff.
