I had to go out and find him this morning, mother! [oh that distressed face! HE WAS SO WORRIED, MOTHER!] He fell asleep in an abandoned building, he was so tired!

"In an abandoned building?!" [THE HORROR] "Oh, no, that is no place for sleeping! Not for growing boys--Edward, you need your rest!" [Gertrude's mouth twists into a scowl, then, and she looks very determined...which probably does not bode well.]"I will speak to Elijah about this! It is unacceptable! You are still growing and you need to sleep."[oh she's pissed] "Keeping you up all night--oh, we will se about that!"

[and with that she fades out, probably to go start ranting at her husband]

[and now that he's certain his mother's gone---he just smirks like the smug asshole he is]

That should solve that issue quite handily, if I know my parents. [:>]

Considering you were running all over Gotham in the middle of the night looking for a doll and then fell asleep in an abandoned building? [DRY]

I should think so, yes.

[.....seriously]

You realize that's not at all as comforting as you think it is.

[._.]

Edward. The fact that you were too exhausted to come back and sleep in a bed and instead slept in an abandoned building where anyone could've come across you is fairly worrisome.

[boy he is giving you the biggest look right now. Yeah. He's judging]

....are we seriously having a conversation where it's better that you get no sleep and are exhausted and end up sleeping in an abandoned building in one of the more dangerous cities in America after running around said dangerous city at night...than it is to tell my parents and let them handle it?

[this is why he's the lawyer here--and he can't help but smirk in victory because listen

Mn. I didn't think we were.

[HE WILL EAT HIS SOUP AND HE WILL ENJOY IT THANKS--and pushes to his feet to get seconds. Which is around the time both of his parents reappear]

]"So! We have talked about it, and we have a plan."

[Elijah, behind her, just waves a bit, looking concerned but also a bit contrite because, well...once Gertrude starts, there's no stopping her]

"Elijah and I will keep an eye out and make sure no ghosts bother you when you are sleeping. And then we can tell them to come back tomorrow. And that way, you can sleep."

"Nonsense!"[she tsks, folding her arms] "You need your sleep! And we do not need to sleep, so is better that we watch."

You're not going to dissuade her, you know~ [from the kitchen l o l he has no idea what his mother is saying but he knows his mother well enough]

"Is no trouble. We will handle ghosts. You will sleep." [DECISIVE]

"It's alright, Edward. It'll give us something to do." [Elijah's a bit more gentle with his speech, but still fairly straight forward]
