[ fidgeting, way too dressed up for his own good. tugging at his tie, shifting his weight back & forth between his feet. looks about as unhappy as he can get. ]

[ chuckles again, the sound light. steps away from the corner, his body language makes it plain that he's about ready to leave, already having caught sight of a mop of black hair in the not-so-distant distance.

reaches out a hand to smooth down his baby brother's hair to make room so that he can comfortably lean down to give him a kiss to the head; a customary parting. leans away & removes his hand. ]

Eat with moderation. Your brother is not a doctor yet.

[ doesn't even look fazed or ready to retort, sort of taking it and doing nothing. his arms cross over his chest again, however, unsure if he should even bother responding or not. ]

[ before his time is up he speaks: ]

I don't eat much. Think I'll be fine.

[ it's muttered a little halfheartedly, but it's a response nonetheless. ]

[ makes a sound of disagreement even when his look a little more knowing. ]

Food tastes better when enjoyed with someone you favour.

[ looks up when he hears the noise of someone (rather loud) approaching. offers a smile when their third member joins them, expression flickering with some mixture of thoughts. ]

Ah. Good evening. Found her without any problems, I assume?

[ looks briefly from nathan to albert & nods, holding up brianna's car keys with a victorious grin. ]

You bet. Sorry to keep you waiting, N.

[prideofunity.livejournal.com]

[ turns completely to albert, an eyebrow raised. ]

What're you doing here anyway? Ran out of ladies to charm already?

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ hums lightly & seems content enough to ignore damon's words. ]

Leaving children unattended is hardly responsible behaviour.

[ rolls his eyes even as his lips twitch, just a little. ]

Bite me. Didn't see any reason why he couldn't take care of himself for a few minutes, and 'sides, he's not that young. He ain't dead, is he?

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ tilts his head in nathan's direction to give him one last glance & seems to cut his response rather short, merely saying: ]

I suppose.

[prideofunity.livejournal.com]

[ snorts. his stance is a bit defiant, his chin lifted to look up at albert. ]

Stop worrying, old man. S'bad for your complexion.

[prideofunity.livejournal.com]

So just trust me and go have your fun.

[ smile returns as he nods once. begins walking soon afterward, a hand landing quietly on damon's shoulder as he passes, giving it a light squeeze before he's gone. ]

[ & then turns back to nathan, his expression cocky, confident, warm -- just like always. hand goes to his hip as he spins the keys by their keyring around his index finger. ]

Well? What're we waiting for? Let's get the hell outta here.

[prideofmusic.livejournal.com]

[ was looking back and forth between them, like a child who doesn't understand what the adults are talking about. is far from misunderstanding, though his expression goes through several takes before he looks pleased with being left alone with damon again. nothing else seems to matter except that. ]

Yeah, lets. I can feel the walls closing in on me again, sheesh!

[prideofunity.livejournal.com]

[ ruffles his hair fondly before dashing for the door, yelling over his shoulder. ]

LAST ONE THERE BUYS SIS' SHARE OF THE PIZZA!

[prideofmusic.livejournal.com]

WHAT?! H-HEY, WAIT UP-!

[ dashes out the door behind damon, falling behind drastically within a trip here and there despite much effort. he doesn't bother to look back, too convinced that the party did nothing to help him for the night, though deep down inside he knows otherwise. ]
