Jax
Not tonight. I’m being a gentleman.
Connor
You? A gentleman?
Adrian
Plot twist: The teacher whipped him into a good boy.
I nearly groaned out loud.
Jax
Stop projecting, puppy.
Adrian
OH, how is the babysitting going? The kid liked sharks?
Jax
Dinosaurs, not sharks. They’re very different.
Adrian
Awww Uncle Jax is getting all protective!
Connor
Don’t. His ego is already bigger than the fucking sun.
I smirked.
Jax
My ego’s earned. Unlike the discount Batman thing you have going on.
Adrian
DISCOUNT BATMAN
IM CRYING

I snickered. So Bee came to his rescue, huh? The traitor.
