Alex grinned at him. "It's punk artists covering really well known pop songs. It's really fun to listen to." He replied, looking at Danny.

“Yea? I’ll have to check it out, never heard of it before.” Danny nodded, knowing fully well that he’d forget before he ever listened to the albums.

"I can find them now, if you want." he replied with a shrug, laying back down in the grass to look at the clouds.

“Nah man, you’re fine. I’ll just check it on my own, don’t worry about it.” Danny shook his head, leaning back somewhat. He combed his fingers through the blades of grass, picking a few pieces and rolling them in his hands.

"Alright." he replied, stretching and sighing softly. "Sounds like a plan, I guess."

Danny thought for a moment. “Hey- you remember that night the curse took over or whatever and I had to bring you back to your place? Yeah, Fraser talked to you first, right? Was he like.. an ass? Don’t get me wrong, I love the guy and he’s so sweet, but he’s a little weird to new people.”

He frowned a little, thinking. "Uhm…" He trailed off, eyebrows drawing together. "I don't…really remember. My memories are…sort of fuzzy. They always are. But…as far as I can remember, he wasn't too bad."

Danny nodded. “Good, good. As long as he didn’t like.. punch you in the stomach or cuss you out.” He laughed slightly, rubbing the back of his head.

"Uhm…there was cussing, but no punches." He replied with a shrug. "Either way, it wouldn't have been anything new."

Danny laughed sheepishly, unsure how to respond to the second comment. “Aha.. yeah, sorry. Man’s got a vocab that’d make a sailor blush.”

He shrugged again. "Yeah. No big deal. Like I said, I don't…have the greatest memory of it anyways. I usually don't remember much of the curse."

“Yeah, right. Sorry about that.” Danny checked the time on his phone. As he thought more about what to say, he realized that he barely knew Alex at all, meaning their pick of conversation topics always felt slim.

"It's fine, no big deal." Alex replied. He looked over at Danny again, then up at the sky.

“Cool, cool.” Danny nodded. He glanced at the pack of kids, who were once again at each other’s throats. “Fuck, these rowdy ass- I’ll be right back, sorry.” He stood up, wasting no time in prying the warring children away from each other. He carried them back, one on each hip. “The little demons started a fight circle, Alex, where do they get these things?” Danny plopped back onto the grass, keeping the two kids with him.

Alex laughed as Danny came back, shaking his head a little bit. "I have no idea." He replied, shoulders lifting with laughter.

“A fight circle..” Danny repeated to himself incredulously, voice sounding incredibly tired. “Sorry I gotta keep getting up, ha. You know how it is, though, when all your siblings got the same amount of testosterone as a teenage boy. Only thing these kids can do is fight, seems like.” He laughed, ruffling up his siblings’ hair.

"I…don't know, actually, but don't worry about it." He replied, shaking his head a little bit. "I don't mind all that much." He gave a smile, looking at Danny and the two kids.

“It’s a very specific phenomena.” Danny laughed. “Thanks for bein’ patient, though. It helps a lot. Swear, won’t have these little goblins next time we meet up, okay?”

He smiled again. "Yes, it is rather specific." he replied with a nod, sitting up on his elbows. "And alright."

Danny yawned, rubbing his eyes. The more you looked at him, the more apparent it became that Danny looked exhausted. “I have a break from gigs for the next few days, thank god.”

"Oh, that's good. Get some sleep, Danny, you look tired." Alex said with another smile, looking at the werewolf.

“Yeah, yeah. I’ll try it, but I’m kind of stuck awake since I’m the one takin’ care of the kids half the time.” Danny rubbed his eyes. “Maybe I’ll try to pawn them off on Hugo or somethin’ ‘n crash at Fraser’s place, I dunno.”

He nodded a little bit. "Alright. I'd offer my babysitting skills to help, but I have none, and it would lead to disaster, so no."

“Even if you had any, I don’t think I’d say yes. The beasts’d kill ya in a heartbeat if you let ‘em gang up.” Danny shrugged. “Pack mentality or somethin’.”

He nodded again. "Ah. Makes sense." he ran a hand through his hair, looking at the kids for a moment, then at Danny. "Which is a little terrifying, just…by the way."
