75 Godiva Street | Late Morning

It had been a long and sleepless, but satisfying, 4 weeks with the twins at home. They were turning a month old on Friday, and Annie and Diego finally decided it was time for them to be introduced to the rest of the world. Diego would miss their little family bubble they had for a month, but he had to admit he was looking forward to talking to adults again.

They had sent texts out to various people inviting them over if they so wished (he was not about to force people to see his children), and ordered a pizza now that they were done with the healthy food Donna had supplied them with. The twins were dressed in cute outfits that they probably wouldn't put up with a couple months from now.

Of course Maggie immediately spit up on her little dress but he figured people were gonna have to get used to that like he had over the last couple weeks.

Steve wasn't used to babies this little and so he held Ben a little like a baby and a little like something that could explode. "Well, so far they're behaving very well."

"Like a football," Annie advised helpfully, just casual enough to hopefully not come across as condescending. "And yeah, so far they're both little dreams. I mean, we'll see how that holds up once they're walking."

And considering the twins already refused to sleep at the same time, she was already anticipating their developmental milestones hitting at slightly different times, and had visions of a walking Maggie boosting a crawling Ben from his crib, somehow.

"Just say the word and I can put together a pretty sweet net trap to keep them in one place," Steve said, grinning and adjusting his hold on Ben so he wasn't being held like a grenade.

"Honestly not a bad idea," Annie decided, grinning at them. "Especially since we don't know if they'll manifest powers or not."

But if they did, it would probably be pretty early, given how things had gone for their dad.

"Just let me know," Steve said. "I can teach Diego how."

Because clearly their family home needed more traps, right?

It was, at least, finally knife-safe to a degree that even Danny might approve.

Granted that probably had more to do with Diego losing his powers earlier this year than anything else, but the babies probably also were a contributing factor.

"Are we talking like a net that'll scoop 'em up?" Annie wondered. "Like in a cartoon?"

Because that sounded hilarious.

"Like in a cartoon," Steve confirmed. "We use it to haul bad guys up into trees. And it's funny."
