Getting on the bed he waited until Jason sat down and the snuggled up beside him. He moved the other's arm so he was snuggled in between his arm and torso. He then held Jason's hand with both of his. Smiling up at Jason he said, "perfect." He knew the other wouldn't mind and in fact would most likely enjoy it.

Jason felt the warmth of Phil's hands around his own right one. With his left, he caused the film to begin with the song. He knew the lyrics off by heart, but didn't utter the words since he knew he couldn't sing. He loved Phil's clinginess. Perfect. "Yeah, perfect." And it was. He was with someone he cared deeply about, doing something they both wanted to do, and just getting to spend time with people made Jason smile. Before he could help it, a grin was spread onto his face.

Looking up Phil noticed the grin Jason had on his face. "Why are you smiling?" He questioned wondering if the male really liked the movie or if it was something else. Jason was nice and warm and Phil fit perfecting in between his arm and torso. He too enjoyed being with Jason and couldn't imagine what his life would be like without him.

Why are you smiling? Jason wondered if his smile was freaking Phil out or something. That would be a new one. It took him a few moments to realise he was asking an innocent question and Jason wasn't smiling rather crazily and was probably not scaring the hell out of him or anything like that. "I'm smiling because I'm happy," was his simple reply. And because I have such an adorable brother who enjoys spending time with me and is okay with me wanting to hug him and watch little kid movies and climb trees, he added in his head, which only made him smile more. He pulled a funny face, sticking his tongue out and rolling his eyes. "Would you prefer me make this face when I want to express my joy?" he joked, hoping Phil would find him funny and not mean for answering a simple question in an ordinary way.

"I'm happy too," Phil said when the other stated he was happy. When the other made the funny face Phil started giggling uncontrollably for almost a minute. "No silly your face will get stuck like that and you'll always look silly," he said remembering the old wife's tale that he had been told a few years ago when he too liked making funny faces. At this point he wasn't even paying much attention to the movie and was focusing on Jason.

Daisy looked at Ashley. She was excited to go and cocked her head thinking about who would want to come. Maybe Philip and Jason would want to. Jason liked playing with her. She smiled excited at that idea. Daisy turned to Ashley,

'Going to see if Jason wants to come.' she signed to her friend. She turned and ran off waving too Dante as she darted through the living room. Maybe she'd invite Dante after she came down from inviting her brothers. She danced up the stairs to see if Jason was in his bedroom.

Part of Daisy's mental problems included a certain lack of understanding what personal space was and didn't grasp the concept of privacy either. She went came to Jason's bedroom door and shoved it open walking in and standing next to the bed on Jason's side. She leaned over and poked Jason gently, trying to get his attention. She smiled at Philip and poked Jason again.

Daisy bounced on her toes waiting for Jason to respond to her poking. She glanced over the tv, but then back at Jason. Daisy would always prefer running around outside to watching a movie. She was too energetic most of the time to focus on a movie unless she was tired or sick.

He smiled, glad he'd made Phil feel happy enough to laugh, especially hysterically. "Well, that wouldn't be fun," Jason replied, his funny expression fading away. He was told if the wind changed, he'd get stuck in his expression, but since he knew it wasn't true, he pulled faces anyway. Still, playing along to Phil's belief wouldn't hurt. He could hear the movie in the background, but he was too busy having a conversation with Phil to watch it. How does Peter Pan even lose his shadow? Jason wondered.

Only then he realised he'd received a poke on his shoulder. Turning to see Daisy, he smiled at her. "Hey. What's up?" He glanced at Phil, squeezing his hand to comfort him. He wasn't really aware of Phil's situation nor why he disliked females, only that he didn't like them, and he didn't want him to feel threatened at Daisy's lack of understanding about Phil's emotions towards her.

Phil tensed when Daisy came in the room. He knew there was something different about the girl he just didn't know what it was. He just assumed since she was a girl she was weird not knowing she actually had a mental disability. Even if he had known she had one Phil didn't know what a mental disability was.

Jason seemed to like her, why he didn't know but he decided to at least be civil with her. He knew he should say hi but he didn't like her. He didn't want Jason to be upset with him so he forced himself to smile at the girl, it only lasted a few seconds but it was a lot coming from Phil.

Daisy smiled when Jason looked at her. The room was a bit dark because they were watching a movie so she decided to speak instead of sign even though she really didn't like talking. It was frustrating for her because the harder she tried to speak smoothly the more she stuttered.

"Ash-shley is g-g-going to show-ow me suh-something spec-ecial. Do you and-and Phil-il want t-to come?" She stuttered.

Daisy bounced eagerly on her toes waiting for him to respond. She hoped he'd come. Ever since Phil got here she hadn't got to spend much time with Jason. Maybe Phil would come too that would be fun! Maybe they could make it a family outing! Daisy looked happier and happier as these thought floated through her head. She loved family outings. It was hard for the family to go on them because there was such an age difference it was hard to find something everyone would enjoy, plus at least one person always seemed to be busy. Mommy and Daddy would plan family hikes though sometimes and make everyone go.

"P-Please?" she added quickly, remembering she'd forgotten to say that. She was working on manners in school and was trying to remember her pleases when asking. Daisy smiled at Jason and Phil, her face still had jam from her breakfast on it and she hadn't brushed her hair yet either so she was a bit of a mess.

"Well, what do you think, Phil?" Jason said, feeling him tensed. He felt torn between going with Daisy and Ashley, and staying with Phil. He wasn't really sure if Phil would want to go, considering he seemed to be... threatened? by Daisy. He didn't know why he didn't like her. Daisy was the most harmless person Jason knew. "What is it, Daisy? A secret den? A chocolate fountain?" he questioned, now wanting to find out what this special something was. If it was from Ashley, who had a good eye, it was likely to be something pretty awesome and Jason didn't desire to miss out. He turned to look at Phil, who looked like he needed comfort Jason couldn't provide while Daisy was there, and saw him give a small smile to their sister. Please say yes, please say yes, thought Jason, who was dying in anticipation, and honestly didn't want to be cooped up inside all day knowing there was something of interest somewhere else. Being inside made him feel trapped. Feeling trapped was his biggest fear. Despite this, Jason also didn't like the idea of Phil believing he was going to easily abandon him. And he didn't want to upset the girls either. This is pretty awkward... he thought, suspecting Phil's answer to be a plain old 'no thanks'.

When Jason asked him if he wanted to check out the surprised Phil tensed. Did the older male want to go? If he did and Phil said no would he just leave him? Phil doubted that...or at least hoped. "If you wanna go I guess we can check it out...but if it isn't fun I think I'll leave," Phil said knowing he would most likely be leaving with or without Jason. Phil hoped though that if he decided to leave Jason would come with him....

Scarlet's response to his less than polite remark about her choice of clothes and the painfully annoying hairflip didn't sit well with Randy. However, before he could start lecturing about the importance of hair gel to her, the 'mom' just had to voice her opinion on his opinion. Perhaps he should've kept his mouth shut and wait until Angelica left the room before criticising Scarlet's outfit. That would've saved him from her self-righteous nagging. Though he voiced none of that and merely gave Angelica a glare, accompanied by an annoyed huff, while she left the room to answer her phone. He wouldn't dare talk back to her no matter how much he wanted to. "Shove your constructive criticism where the sun don't shine for all I care," Randy muttered under his breath while he grabbed a piece of toast and some butter from the fridge. However, before he could make himself a gourmet breakfast with what he had, he got a proposition from a rather cheerful little girl.

Randy felt his mood somewhat lifting as he watched Ashley happily sign to him. Whatever this special thing was, it had gotten her pretty excited and that piqued Randy's interest. He didn't usually end up regretting it if Ashley wanted to show him something and he decided to go along. He had a feeling this time wouldn't be an exception to the rule either. Admittedly, Randy wasn't dancing from joy as the offer was seemingly repeated to Scarlet and the little magician wannabe but he tolerated them on a daily basis as it was anyway. Having made his decision, Randy gave Ashley a small smile as he replied to her. I'll come if you let me eat first.

With that 'said', Randy buttered up his toast swiftly and folded it in half before taking a bite. After he swallowed the first piece of his luxurious meal, he used his mouth for talking for a change. "Fashion is merely a social construct invented to make money from selling moronic clothes to morons." It was as if he had merely made a general statement for all in his vicinity to hear but there wasn't really any controversy as to whom the words were really aimed at. Randy glanced not so discreetly at Scarlet as he finished his toast with two more bites, curious as to how she would react.

Jack folded his hands as he waited to be told he could get food. Ashley was planning something 'exciting', and he did not expect to be invited, but when she said he could come he was not sure what to say. With everyone being invited it was becoming a family excursion, and he did not care to have a bonding experience with everyone. When all was said and done he did not care for any of the family. The only one you can rely on is yourself. To rely on others is weakness. The same goes for attachments. To become attached to something is to give someone a weapon to use against you. For the question of if he was going to go, it was unlikely.

Leaning back in the chair Jack listened to what was being said around him. As usual, Randy was being an ass. Jack narrowed his eyes. He had never forgiven Randy for how the older boy treated him when Randy first arrived, and it was likely he never would forgive. "That means your need for hair gel also make you a moron." The words were spoken in an emotionless manner, and he kept his face turned away from Randy. The hair gel was not the only thing that made Randy a moron. Fashion was more than just clothes, so if he would have thought before speaking he would have realized slicking back his hair every day was a fashion from the 50's. "The only difference is that the fashion you are displaying is one that has been long dead."

Daisy gave a happy squeak when Phil said he would come. She frowned a little when he said he would leave if he didn't like it. That seemed kind of mean to say. Her cheerful mood returned quickly though and she looked at Jason waiting for him to respond,

"S-So you'll c-come?" she stuttered bouncing more energetically on her toes. She didn't wait for his answer, of course he'd come. Jason loved going out with them! Turning the young girl ran off out of the room and into her own room. She grabbed her blue and pink water bottle from near her school bag and hooked it to her belt-loop with it's carabiner before dashing down stairs.


Daisy bounded into the living room and jumped onto the couch squatting in front of Dante. She tapped her knee. Daisy wanted as many people as possible to come with them to the 'surprise'.

Ashley is showing us a surprise wanna come? she signed grinning at her older sister as she waited for her response.

Looking up from her lap she saw daisy. She giggled a little bit. Fine, but you don't have to sign with me. She signed back taking her earbuds out. "Okay?" she spoke this time. She wrapped up her head phones and slipped them into her pocket. "So.....,You going to lead the way?" she asked. She sat her drawing pad on the coffee table, waiting for a reply.[/BCOLOR]

After putting the eggs on a separate big plate, so she could split them up for the ones who wanted some, Scarlet turned the stove off. While getting plates ready, she turned around to see Ashley signing about showing Daisy something really special. With a big grin on her face, Scarlet signed back a big and enthusiastic YES! Scarlet wasn't the one that most of the younger kids went to for outdoor things, since she would never enjoy it... too much dirt and bugs for her liking, but she wanted to see what Ashley was so excited to show to Daisy, hopefully something cute and adorable. Scarlet stood back a bit at seeing Roger, Ashley's Iguana, she still hasn't gotten use to the lizard.

Once she had the eggs and sausages and toast on different plates, ready for the ones who wanted to eat the hot breakfast and what not, she started to bring plates to the kitchen table. She brought a plate to Little Jack Jack first, seeing as he was the only one that didn't eat yet, other than her. Before Scarlet could bite into her sausage, Randy, the Wannabe Member of Grease, had to say some more words... he was soo annoying and irritating. Scarlet was about to say something, but Jack spoke up first. Hearing his comments made her laugh a little. "Good one, Jack Jack." She smirked at the little fashionable boy.

"Yes, like Little Jack Jack said, if we're these so-called "morons" for fashion... than that makes you the King of Morons, since your slicked back hairstyle is from the 50's, where it should've stayed... you should've stayed there as well." She gave a small smile Randy's way, before cutting into her sausage and taking a bite out of it. "And another thing... I think the Theater near the mall is looking for fake gangsters for a play... you should go and tryout, might get it, you seem to play a fake thug pretty convincingly." She looked down at her food, not giving any notice to Randy and his bad choice of hairstyle anymore.

When Phil said he would come, that caused a huge smile to form on Jason's face. This meant there was no awkward situation. He wouldn't have to pick and cause tears. S-so you'll c-come? Jason nodded, "Yeah, we'll go down in a minute." Then he realised Daisy had left before he could even answer.

"Thanks. You just avoided a horrible situation," Jason murmured gently to Phil, staying for a few moments comfortable with his arm wrapped around the younger boy, before reaching for the remote and pressing 'pause' on the rather unwatched Peter Pan. "Should we turn it off do you think?" Jason asked, his real question being 'will you want to watch this?'

Will I need a jacket? Jason thought. He hadn't been cold at all in the woods, but perhaps he'd be colder somewhere else. At the last minute he decided not to, but asked Phil, "Do you need anything like a coat or something first?"

Daisy grinned and bounced on the couch when Dante said she'd come, but frowned when she said she didn't want her using sign language. Daisy knit her eyebrows together staring at the couch. She didn't like talking and only did it when necessary, but she was also a people pleaser and wanted everyone to be happy with her.

"I-I'll try to talk-alk m-m-more." she promised jumping off the couch. She grabbed Dante's hand; handholding was about the only physical form of affection Daisy would show and agree too. The little girl pulled Dante towards the kitchen where the others were. Ashley was still there as far as Daisy knew. She tugged Dante over to Ashley before letting go of the older girl's hand.

Dante is coming. she signed to her.

Daisy ran around the kitchen counter and tugged on her daddy's sleeve.

"D-daddy are you-ou comin-ing?" she asked slowly, remembering to try and speak. She smiled up at her dad waiting for an answer. Daisy was going to invite everyone to come. Maybe after this she'd go see where Max was.

The little girl's memory wasn't that good, but she knew her family and even after a short time here could always tell who was missing in the family group. Daisy always wanted to include everyone in everything no matter what it was. You had to specifically tell her if you wanted her to not invite anyone or just invite certain people. Even then it was likely she'd invite more people than she should.

As Ashley watched Daisy run to and fro, she started to get a little irritated. She wanted to leave like twenty minutes ago and Daisy was running around inviting everybody! It's true that she herself had invited a couple of people, but that was only Scarlet, Jack and Randy! And that was mainly because they were in the same room and it would have been rude to ignore them. Now everybody but Mom and Max were coming and ughh now she was inviting Dad too! Ashley loved her dad, she really really did. But he was kind of tall and had a bear like physique and in order to see the butterfly gathering they had to be...Fox-like. Well technically, Ashley couldn't really tell if Daisy was inviting Dad, because she wasn't that great at reading lips, but usually once Daisy was invited somewhere, she went on an invitation rampage. And Ashley knew that if she was getting annoyed with Daisy she should be delicate because even though she'd never been strictly told if anything was wrong with Daisy, she knew her younger sister was different because she never saw her in class and just by the way she acted. So instead of glaring and huffing like she kind of wanted to, Ashley got in front of Daisy and signed slowly, I can show Dad later. Let's go now, please.

Ashley nodded in the direction of everyone who had gathered in the kitchen and had accepted her invitation and pointed towards the door. As she walked towards, it Roger waddled along behind her. The meadow where she had seen the butterflies wasn't that far away but with this many people it would take a couple of extra minutes. As they walked, Ashley turned around and began signing excitedly. What do you guys think the surprise is? Guess! She doubted anyone would guess correctly. She had even meant to find the butterflies the other day, she had just tripped over a rock and fallen into the meadow, surprisingly not scaring the butterflies.

Surprisingly, the first response Randy got wasn't from Scarlet. Instead, Jack decided to beat her to it and spoke his mind. The words that flowed out of the little boy's mouth were certainly rather effective in disintegrating whatever mood lifting Ashley had managed to accomplish on him and send him spiraling into the deep dark pit of anger that was so familiar to him. Randy almost regretted his policy of not throwing punches at kids, especially his 'siblings' as he growled at Jack. "I suggest you keep your cakehole shut if you wanna keep your head." No one called him a moron and insulted his hair without repercussions. However, before he could throw any more threats at the kid or do something in his anger he'd later regret, he finally got a reaction from Scarlet.

She laughed at him. And proceeded to make fun of him. Randy didn't fail to see the seeds of truth in the jobs directed at him from the two but there was no way he'd ever admit that. They'd regret making a fool out of him. When the spoiled brat was seemingly done and directed her attention to her food, Randy swiftly closed the distance between them. Gripping the back of the chair Scarlet was sitting on, the lad forcefully turned the chair, the poor piece of furniture screeching against the floor, so that he could face his 'sister'. Randy's hand found its way to Scarlet's throat in a blink of an eye and he applied moderate pressure to further emphasize what came out of his mouth. "Maybe I'll take you with me. I think I'd have a better chance of getting the part if I just went there and snapped your frail little neck in front of them." The threat was carried out with a warning growl as he glared daggers at the girl.

Randy would've proceeded to try to murder Scarlet with his gaze alone if he hadn't spotted Ashley out of the corner of his eye. It seemed like she was more than ready to go and wasn't going to be waiting around any longer. Which also meant he had to get himself some shoes. Just as quickly as he had been to advance on the ridiculously dressed girl, he also left her alone. Without a second glance at Scarlet, Randy swiftly disappeared to find his footwear, a pair of simple black converse, before catching up to the rest of Ashley's company. He wasn't much in a mood to be guessing what the surprise was though. He was still bubbling with rage.
