(They went to school, Pluto got minorly beat up, and yeah basically nothing else important happened. Kai skipped)
Pluto leaned against Beau, trying to brush away the stubborn tears. He kept his gaze firmly on the bird's nest, not blinking. Don't blink… then you'll cry. Just keep your eyes open. "What kind of satisfaction would someone get from throwing someone else to the ground?" He finally asked, if quietly.

"I don't know, Pluto…some people just find it good to hurt someone," Beau answered softly, brushing a few strands of hair away from Pluto's face as he let the younger boy lean against him. He noticed how hard they were trying to keep the tears from falling, though he didn't question them. Beau had been through the same things before too.

(Because Mercury's 21 I'm going to say he moved out and he came over for a surprise visit)

Mercury walked up to the house, a smile on his face. Even though he had a key with him, he knocked on the door. It would be around dinner time, and he always loved giving his family surprise visits.

Ana opened the door with her apron still on, "Mercury?" she asked, dazed

Mercury grinned, raising his arms up for a hug. "Surprise?" He said, laughing.

Ana fell into his arms and smiled, "Hi Honey" she hummed, "If you had told me you were coming I would've prepared something!" she exclaimed

"I wanted to surprise you!" He said, kissing her on the cheek. "Am I in time for dinner?"

"Yes! Yes of course you are it's the same time everyday" she replied, "Come in!" she exclaimed

He stepped inside and hung his coat up on the rack. "How's everything been since I last saw you guys?"

"Pretty good" she hummed, undoing her apron and placing it on the stair banister

"No trouble at school, right?" Mercury asked, skeptical. His siblings had always had problems with bullying, and after he had graduated he hadn't been able to help them much.

"Pluto" she stiffened turning around

Mercury's voice softened. "Is he okay? Do you want me to talk to him?"

Venus looked to Mercury, "He won't talk. I mean maybe he'll talk to you, but probably not. He's overwhelmed at the moment."

"Yes" she hummed

Mercury sent a mock-offended look over to Venus. "You dare speak without welcoming your older brother back home? What has this house become in my absence?"

Venus smirked and chuckled a little, "Your older by three years. Do not mock me like that. I am an adult."

Caspian ran downstairs, “Mercury! You’re here!!” He said hugging him

Mercury laughed and wrapped his arms around Caspian, before pulling back and ruffling his hair. He turned back to Venus. "At least someone loves me,"

"I spent two years without any of the other kids. I've spent my time and done my sentence with you," Venus laughed and walked up to Mercury, "It's good to see you Mercury."

"Well I know that it's good to see me," He said, posing. "I'm wonderful. And don't act like I was so torturous. You used to do whatever I said. I once got you to eat half a bar of soap."

Venus's face grew slightly red, "Do not remind me."

"And then there was the time I got you to lick the electrical socket like four times in a row," Mercury said, thinking. "Really, looking back on it I got everyone here to do a lot of things they probably shouldn't have. I'm an amazing sibling."

"What's that?" Pluto turned at the sound of the door and voices, quickly brushing away his tears when they fell from his eyes. "Who's here? Is it Mercury?"
