[ Other than years of knowing him. He definitely deserves that particular accusation being tossed his way. The two of them get along well, but it's hard to be around someone for multiple lifetimes without ever needling them from time to time.
He laughs at the useless thwapping as he picks up some more pillows on the floor. ]
No proof ... ?? What about my mind and our history? I am helping raise your little baby with these sandwiches!! ( phil tries to hiss all of this dramatically but she ends up laughing halfway through her faux tirade against jason. it's always going to be a younger sibling thing, having to stand your ground for one reason or another, even over silly sibling things such as this one.
normally, she is quite easygoing, letting everything flow like water off a duck's back, but sometimes she will break out the more combative moods for her older brother.
the living room looks more like itself - still pleasantly messy but without a fort in the middle of it this time. more functional. )
I know she'll be happy to eat a sandwich from papa, I can tell you that.
[ Phil's very reasonable proof still gets an exaggerated frown and a shake of the head from Jason, as if their centuries of history can't possibly be used against him like this.
Though he does at least stop shaking his head when she mentions that she's helping to raise his daughter. It's true, without a mother figure in Lily's life it has been great for her to still have an aunt who is as there for her as Phil is. Even as a joke he's not going to refute her help. ]
She'd be just as happy to eat it if it only came from you. She's not a picky girl.
( well. she preens a little, running her hand dramatically through her hair from root to tip. )
Well, I do have a magic touch and all. So.
( there was no doubt in her mind when she learned that her brother would have a child that she would rush to help him. of course, she would be grateful to have all the time with him after years apart, but they haven't really had a family to raise, roots to nurture and grow. their family is far from what modern people consider normal, so she is at least happy to provide another loving influence in her neice's life this way. )
We lucked out that way, so I hear. Imagine if she rejected broccoli? I'd be so heartbroken!
[ Jason isn't entirely certain what he said was a real compliment, considering he made the comment about Lily not being picky, but he won't burst Phil's bubble here either. She is a good cook, and she deserves a chance to have her go fed from time to time too.
After all the help that she's given him over the years, even before he had his daughter? The least he can do is pretend his teasing was proper praise.
And maybe offer a little real praise too. ]
Even if she did, I'm sure you'd find a way to bring her around on it.

I can probably manage that much.
