No, you sit first. I'm serving you today, remember?

[thepursued]

[Diarmuid gives his brother a look, but decides not to argue with him in this case. Instead, he puts the rest of what they have prepared onto another plate and then makes sure all the stove burners are off before moving to sit at the table.]

All right then, Great Brother-Server! May I have my breakfast now?

[beforetights]

Yes you may. The best breakfast for the best big brother.

[He sets the prepared food into front of Diarmuid, and then hops into his own chair.]

[thepursued]

I am sure it will be.

[Diarmuid gives Cu Chulainn a wide grin.]

Thank you again for all this hard work. I am proud of you, brother.

[beforetights]

I'm glad! It's another step toward being a splendid knight, like you!

[He knows he's supposed to be the childhood hero here, but Diarmuid is the more experienced knight.]

[thepursued]

[Diarmuid nods and then waves toward his brother's plate.]

You made a lot of progress today. Now, eat before it gets cold.

[beforetights]

[He nods and starts scarfing down food. After a few bites, he stops.]

It still doesn't taste as good as your cooking...

[thepursued]

You just need more practice, brother. This is very good for your first try!

[Just a few egg shells in the pancakes. It could be a lot worse.]

Don't get discouraged.

[beforetights]

I won't. I'm a hero and I don't give up.

[He eats more of his pancakes and starts on his eggs.]

So what will we do after breakfast today, Brother?

[thepursued]

Good! You are going to be a wonderful hero someday if you keep that up.

[Which Diarmuid knows he does, of course.]

I don't know. I hadn't really planned that far ahead. Do you have something in mind?

[beforetights]

Hm...I wanna get some more training in! And you should spar with me! I've got my own spear now!

[Technically, it's his uncle's spear, but it's also the only one that can stand against his grasp when he's irritated.]

[thepursued]

That sounds like an excellent idea.

[Diarmuid gives his brother a wide smile.]

You can show me just how much your skills have grown.

[beforetights]

[He nods.]

Just you wait! I'll beat you this time! I'm already beating warriors who're taller than me!

[thepursued]

[Diarmuid laughs softly. Though he knows it's not likely to happen, he doesn't want to discourage his brother either.]

We will see, mighty warrior. First, finish your breakfast.

[beforetights]

[He goes back to eating, only this time he eats too quickly, so he chokes and winds up coughing.]

Okay, I think I'm done!

[thepursued]

Slowly, brother.

[Diarmuid gives him a stern look.]

We can't practice if you choke. Besides, before we practice we have to clean up the things from breakfast.

[beforetights]

Oh. Cleanup work.

[He pouts.]

Do we have to? I already cleaned the living room!

[thepursued]

We cannot just leave things sit, brother. It is better to clean up right away and not leave things for later.

[Diarmuid finishes his food and then stands to gather up their plates.]

You don't have to help me, since I am grateful for the cleaning you have already done, but we will be able to start practicing faster if you do.

[beforetights]

Mm...

[He has to think for a moment.]

Alright! I'll lead the cleanup, since I'm the one taking care of you today!

[He starts piling things into the sink.]

[thepursued]

[Diarmuid smiles at his brother, gently.]

All right, but let me help you. The work will go more quickly with two.

[beforetights]

Hm...you can wash the big dishes and the pans. I'll wash the small dishes.

[He turns on the water, though he turns on a little too much, sending water spraying everywhere.]

[thepursued]

Careful!

[Diarmuid quickly turns the water down.]

Why don't you let me handle that? I need a big strong boy who can dry the dishes. Would you be willing to do that for me?

[beforetights]

Yes, I would! Very much so.

[He grabs the dish rag from off its hook and reaches his hand out.]

Just give it over to me when you're done washing.

[thepursued]

Thank you.

[Diarmuid gives his brother a grateful smile, before setting to work on the first dishes.]

Just set them on the table when you are done, and we will put them all away once everything is clean.

[beforetights]

I will.

[A pause.]

How high do you think we can stack the dishes this time?
