*stares at a wall for 8 hours*
Danny: Ugh, they're back again
Jazz: Don't make that face at paying customers. Do you want to make a portal back home?
Danny rolling his eyes: Yes
Jazz: Then we need to get enough money to buy the parts. If that means waiting tables at a barely legal dinner, where idiots hit on us, then we wait those stupid tables. Now go over there and get the Waynes to leave us a 200 tip.
Danny: Fine, but only if you do too!
Jazz: *Tighten her apron straps into an hourglass figure* Way ahead of you.
Danny: *Rolling eyes but does the same*
Meanwhile with the Waynes
Bruce: It's so nice to go out to eat with you all
Alfred: Indeed. It's a nice change, don't you agree, children?
Wayne kids: *hyperventilating*
Bruce Not looking up from his phone: The Fenton siblings?
Alfred: Indeed, sir. It seems like Master Dick, Master Jason, and Miss Cass are going to attempt to speak to Ms. Fenton today. Master Tim, Master Damian, Master Duke, and Miss Steph don't seem mentally ready to look Mister Fenton in the eye. Bets?
Bruce: Dick chokes on his fork again. Tim face plants on the table, and Steph once again speaks in gibberish after forgetting the entire English language.
Alfred: Very good, sir.
Duke woke up to a lively and full house. Which is weird all things considered that everyone except him tended to be asleep.
As he looked over his shoulder to stare at the clock on his bedside table, he read 1 am. Definitely too early for him. But not late enough for the rest of the family to go to bed.
As Duke begrudgingly flips his covers off of him as he thinks to himself. ‘Why is everyone here? If it was a big important mission they would’ve woken me up. Right?’
As Duke walks down the stairs into the library there is this humongous tree that would be impossible to miss. You could hear Steph loudly singing Christmas carols as she swings off her grappling hook to put on ornaments. Dick looking both ecstatic about the decorations and worried that Steph might fall. Jason is in the bay window reading a book that Duke can’t make out.
As he moves his head slightly to other side of the library there is Cass and Damian making snowflakes. It is clear that Damian was coerced into the activity. But he doesn’t seem to mind it at the moment.
As Duke looks around the room he is filled with the worry of just breathing wrong would break his domestic peace that has encased the library. In an effort to preserve the peace, he finds himself staying to the side. Away from everyone. Just watching them interact with each other. Or in Jason’s case, watching him melt into the atmosphere.
Hours pass. Jason grabs more books with every passing hour. Cass and Damian both made enough snowflakes to cover every inch of the manor. Steph had successfully managed to decorate every empty space in the library by 3:30. Tim had walked in at some point to sit on the floor staring at the tree while he sipped on his coffee.
The sun started to rise. Slowly but surely. The sun painted the library in shades of gold. Encapsulating the moment into Dukes mind. Entrapping the moment in all their minds.
In all their years of being a ‘family’ this was their first Christmas together. And it all began to send a chill of dread within them all. All of them just waiting for the other shoe to drop. Just waiting when it will come crashing down.
But till then they would enjoy this Christmas together. Fearing it might be the last.

Transcription: Tommy: “But you don’t hang out with me as much when we’re not husband and husband.” Tubbo: “… That’s just simply not true.” Tommy: “Feels true.” Tubbo: “We hung out more when you didn’t marry me.” Tommy: “Really?” Tubbo: “Yep” Tommy: “… oh”
Fire blazes in the pit. Isha is giggling around the campfire. Running around to grab marshmallows from everyone’s bag. The only bags that have been kept untouched were Jinx’s (Mama!) bag meaning the bag that she took from Ekko (Papa!) and Silco (Granpa!).
Silco picks up and laughing Isha as she stuffed a few marshmallows into her mouth. “Those aren’t from your mama’s bag huh?” Silco says patting Isha’s head.
Isha shakes her head as she tries to finish the marshmallows in her mouth.
“Isha?” Jinx calls out after the kid.
Silco then notices the bag that used to my Jinx’s bag of marshmallows. Now filled to the brim with more. As he looks around the campfire he notices that every bag of marshmallows is less filled than before. Especially Viktor’s bag. It was once filled with marshmallows but is now empty. He was eating Jayce’s marshmallows as pay back for dragging him along to the campfire with everyone.
“Go to your mama.” Silco says as he lets Isha down to run to Jinx who is laying her head on Ekko’s shoulder. She runs away smiling and waving at him. Once she has reached her parents she nestles between them happily munching on marshmallows.
Jinx hold her close into a hug. She lets go slightly to tug Ekko’s arm to wrap more around her. Once Jinx is comfortable with the tightness of his arm around her she goes back to holding Isha close.
Isha runs around giggling as her dog that she has bestowed the name of doggy boo-boo. Ekko and Jinx have been working on her speech. Ever since Isha went to them expressing that she wanted to speak the way they do. She may speak like a toddler at the age of 10 but, it doesn’t seem to bother either Ekko or Jinx. Jinx finds it adorable especially when the 10 year old just blew something up and rushes to her to tell her about it.
Doggy boo-boo has successfully managed to tackle a giggling Isha. Ekko is not far behind them. Ensuing that neither don’t get majorly hurt.
“Down prince.” Ekko says sternly. Getting a pout and grumble from Isha.
“No! Doggy boo-boo!” Isha exasperated as she clutches the dog in a death grip. “Papa! Name doggy boo-boo!”
“Sorry princess.” Ekko says picking up Isha my her sides. He sits her on his hip and walks over to the sofa. Isha lays her head on him while wrapping herself around him. “But your mama likes prince more than doggy boo-boo.”
Isha gasps at the response. Picking her head up to look at him.
“I know the horror!” Ekko smiles at the kids expression. Resulting in him pressing a soft kiss to her temple.
“Slander!” Jinx yells across the archway from the kitchen.
“Mama!” Isha yells while squirming out of Ekko’s hold. Ekko put her down to run towards Jinx.
“Your papa is a dirty liar. I love the name doggy boo-boo, princess.” Jinx says picking up Isha to put a kiss on her temple.
Ekko walks to the two. Wrapping his arms around Jinx’s waist to pull her close. Laughing into her neck.
Jinx is blabbering about something. Something that neither Ekko or Vi can understand her while she’s underneath the car to fix it up.
“I need you to speak up PowPow!” Yells Vi. Isha covers her ears even though she has her headphones on. Ekko snorts out a response at Isha’s antics.
“Isha honey… you know you can barely hear her.” Ekko says. Isha just blows a raspberry at him.
“You two hurry up and get me the wrench!” Jinx yells exasperated while pushing herself out of from under the car. “I need to get this car up and running fast.”
“We couldn’t understand you PowPow.” Vi says walking to her
“Boy Savior, be a savior and SAVE ME!” Jinx yells as she gets tackled by Vi. Vi lays comfortably on top of her.
Isha giggles happily at their antics. Ekko walks over to them. Laying his body on them both. Jinx yells in frustration.
“Isha. Come help me!” Jinx asks borderline pleading. Isha nod frantically as she runs to pull Ekko off of them. In response Ekko lays all his body weight down.
~A few minutes of struggle later~
Isha kicks both Ekko and Vi and pouts on the floor. Ekko gets off of Vi to pick up Isha. “How about we get some ice cream while Vi helps your mom out.”
Isha lights up and nods eagerly.
“TRAITORS!” Jinx yells out as Ekko leaves with Isha in hand.
