Wanda shook her head slightly, looking over at the twins who were stacking coloring books on top of a large pile of stuffed animals. "Do I even want to know what they're doing?" she asked Pietro, soft enough so that the boys couldn't overhear.

Pietro shrugged and spoke quietly as well, "I dunno...perhaps their trying to build something really tall...kids are weird like that."

Wanda arched an eyebrow. "They're tiny... everything is really tall to them."

Pietro shrugged, "What if they have powers like flight...your going to be screwed when that happens...flight and super strength." Pietro smiled over at them, "They are doing the freak twin thing...not even talking...just doing."

"They do that... a lot." Wanda nodded a little, wrapping her arms around her waist. "It freaks me out sometimes, because they'll go all quiet and they're just never quiet." Which was okay with her, if not with the rest of the Brotherhood. She'd never minded her children talking, crying, playing, or just generally making noise... at least not outside of whether or not she should be worried about it.

Pietro nodded, "It's almost like something is wrong if they don't make noise...almost like everyone in this house..."

There was a loud cry and Wanda looked up to see that the pile of toys had collapsed, half burying Michael. Frowning, she stood and picked the boy up from the pile, wipping a couple of tears off his face.
"Are you hurt?" she asked softly, carefully stroking back his hair.
"Unh unh," Michael rested his head on her shoulder, sniffling. "Our tower broke."

Pietro taking the moment at hand, and seeing a use to prove his powers...why no one would ever guess...but He rebuilt the tower and made it sturdier than before. "You sure it's broke buddy?"

Michael smiled, rubbing his eyes and trying to wipe away all the tears.
"But it was broked," Thomas tenatively poked the tower of toys.
Wanda laughed and carefully set Michael back down, ruffling his hair lightly. "Well, it's fixed now."

The twins went back to playing quietly, pulling still more toys out of the toybox.
"He spoils them," Wanda murmured, knowing full well that she hadn't been able to afford most of the toys.

"I certainly hope that he hasn't...but you never know with him...or Mystique...Nightcrawler was younger when they messed with him." Pietro pointed out...they had to be prepared.

"Nightcrawler didn't turn out half as screwed up as we did, though," Wanda murmured. "Maybe that's the secret: getting all those genes messed with when you're younger."
Thomas toddled up to them, tugging lightly on Pietro's pant leg. "My band aid fell off. And it was Scooby Doo," he whispered sadly, holding up his arm where a scrape was starting fade. Staring up at his uncle, the boy stuck his other thumb in his mouth and waited for an answer.

Pietro looked at his sister not quite sure what she meant before looking down at his nephew, "Well...I'll just have to get you another one then won't I?" Pietro had a bright smile before he disappeared in a flash only tow return again seconds later with a new band aid. "Here you go champ." Pietro knealt and applied the band aid before he patted Thomas' head.

Wanda smiled softly and hugged Thomas lightly with one arm. "Go play," she murmured, nudging him back towards his brother. The boy grinned before running off.
Sighing softly, she sunk onto one of the beds and watched the boys play quietly. Who knew single parenting was going to be so tiring?

"A little," Wanda nodded slightly, drawing her knees up to her chest. "I haven't been sleeping lately. If you couldn't tell by my recent outbursts..." She was quiet, making sure the boys didn't overhear. After all, she'd been so careful to make sure that they didn't know what was going on with her and Mortimer and Catseye.

Pietro sighed, "I've stayed out of it...because if I don't Magneto will hear about it...and kill them both...violently...so thats not what we need...at all...but I'll kill Mortimer if he does anything to you again..."

"It's my fault," Wanda whispered, resting her forehead against her knees. "I lead him on... but he went from one little kiss to completely so dependent in a few seconds. I shouldn't have used him."
