Jason knew his own gentle admonishment wouldn't do much to keep Harley calm, but he knew he needed to keep the peace somehow. It was a surprise when happy-go-lucky Zoe was the one to lash out, rightfully in Jason's opinion. He had seen Zoe frustrated and angry before, but never seen her react...

It had been a while since Jason had kissed anyone, but he was fairly sure he had never enjoyed it quite this much. Kissing Matthew felt exciting and comfortable all at once; the thrill of the new combined with the comfortable extension of their existing relationship. He was a little sad when...

Jason could feel how crooked and goofy his smile was as Matthew mocked his choice of words, and he didn't even care. "Yeah it's cool." He said in slight amusement, watching as Matthew got up. He wasn't sure what to expect until Matthew was closer, heart jolting slightly as he realised. He...

Jason had expected tension today, had known all too well how Harley felt about this whole situation. Frankly, he was surprised it had taken her this long to blow up. It barely took Theodore opening his mouth to set her off though, and Jason was quick to rest a hand on Harley's shoulder...

Try as he did not to let the rejection hurt, Jason felt as though his stomach had caved in on itself. This whole... putting himself out there thing wasn't for him. He was considering just... sending Matthew home, cancelling this whole hang out as a write-off and hoping Matthew would let him...

Jason knew his youngest sister's taste well enough not to expect the babies to have the most average names, but he couldn't quite hold back a tiny laugh when he heard the names Zoe and her boyfriend had landed on. It was exactly the kind of names Zoe would love, and he felt a small rush of...

Jason hadn't known what response he expected from Matthew, but somehow he hadn't been prepared for such extreme shock. He shrugged a little uncomfortably, trying to figure out where the shock was coming from. "If... You're not into guys or whatever it's fine, for real, no... No pressure." He...

Jason still couldn't believe he was here. Zoe had told him first, a sensible choice considering their sister's temper, but even having had as long as he did to adjust to the thought, he couldn't quite fathom the reality that Zoe was a mother now. His baby sister, the girl who had spent her...

Jason knew he had to just keep talking now, if he stopped to think about what he was doing he would chicken out, without question. He couldn't look at Matthew while he spoke though, eyes locked on the table as he blurted out the thoughts that had been following him for so long. "I, uh... I...

Jason could tell, even though he smiled, that whatever nervous, uncomfortable energy he was giving off, Matthew had picked up on it. He returned Matthew's smile though, smiling wider when the other man complimented his cooking. "Thanks." Jason managed a couple of bites himself as his mind...

Jason was relieved to have a moment to himself while he dished the food, collecting his thoughts. He had thought through this evening dozens of times, making different plans for how he wanted to go about things, but even now none of it felt right. Being proactive wasn't like him, not at all...

Jason couldn't help grinning when Matthew said the food smelled good, the nervous bubbles in his chest making him smile wider than he usually would. "Cool." he said cheerfully, quickly looking away to get a bottle of wine from the fridge. "Hope red is okay, it's left over from making the...

Part of Jason wanted to suppress the uncharacteristic cheerfulness on his face, but he couldn't quite bring himself to. Jason hadn't liked anyone in a long time, but he recognised the giddy bubbling in his chest at the sight of Matthew, his nerves at the thought of what he had to say tonight...

Jason had... a few friends, but he had never been much of a having people over guy. He went to other people's houses far more often than they came to his. It just felt easier to be out than to be hosting, and other people usually had nicer flats than he did. Today, though... Zoe was out at...

Jason's second visit to Hogwarts felt no less strange than his first had. This place made it difficult to suppress the thoughts Jason usually avoided. Who was the version of him who had come to this school, what would he have been like if he had been just a normal magical kid, like everyone...
