Practice, McCloud. It's just practice. Even though you weren't even sure when you were gonna ask her and this is a totally different-- Practice. Come on.

... [a slight huff, above a sudden noise of what seems to be a combination of puppy noises and children's squealing]

Anyone else get two of 'em?

[Don't mind Hodgins, he's quietly going crazy]

You know, when I said I wanted to settle down and have kids, this really wasn't what I pictured.

[wolfisdumb]

[Yeah, having two kids yipping and screaming and calling "Daddy Daddy Daddy" every few seconds will do that to you]

Yeah, isn't that kind of thing supposed to be gradual or something?

[thelabking]

[It really will, it's worse than Chinese water torture]

I heard there were picket fences involved.

[wolfisdumb]

And maybe-- [Hold that thought, they've started biting each other.]

Hey now, cut that out!!

[thelabking]

Don't put your hand in there to break them up. I tried it earlier and one of them nearly took my thumb off. Those teeth are sharp.

[wolfisdumb]

Can we get 'em something else to chew on, maybe?

[thelabking]

Like a squeaky bone? [And voilà, the castle gives them squeaky bones. Hodgins does not see the flaw in giving hyperactive puppy-kids something noisy]

[wolfisdumb]

[Well, they've stopped fighting, at least, and start gnawing on them after a quick couple of 'fank you daddy's]

Hey, there we go...

[...squeak squeak squeak squeak.]

[thelabking]

[Grins, quite pleased with himself]

See, occupied children are happy children. [...Oh] ...Well, that's going to start to get annoying.

[wolfisdumb]

But they're happy, right? [meanwhile Fox's ears are flat against his skull. B|;; ]

[thelabking]

[Poor Fox, children are loud creatures] ...Yeah, happy is good. I mean, we can get used to the squeaking, right?
