It was that time of year. Roxanne didn't know what it was but by the end of January she felt like she needed to do more. She never knew what 'more' meant but January flew by faster than a snitch and she wondered what she had done all month. She pulled out her phone and found her brother's number.

To Freddy: If you're not buried in case work, want to meet you're little sis for some drinks. My treat?

She beam beneath her curls. "It's an existing program. Mr. McLaggen has really worked with the community on it." She didn't see Cormac that often but she admired how much he cared. "It give me something to do outside of sales." She wanted to ask him about his cases, but she remembered something he had told her while going through his exams. Ongoing cases were not dinner talk.

"We really are a good blend of our parents, aren't we?" She didn't need an answer, it was a proud observation.

"Oh, that's great," Fred said. He picked up a piece of fish, taking a bite. He was glad that Roxy was able to do more than just being a retail grunt. She was wildly talented, and he'd have hated to see it wasted just sitting behind a register. "And you get to do what you've always had an interest in," he acknowledged.

Fred pulled a face at her words, chuckling and shaking his head. "Oh, I don't know. You? Definitely. Me? Not so much." He wasn't fishing, either. He'd never really felt a strong connection to their parents' personalities. In fact, he'd always felt like he took more after Uncle Percy, but it seemed an awkward thing to say out loud, so he never had.

Roxy dashed her fish and chips with a gratuitous amount of malt vinegar giving her brother a sly smile. She could understand what he was saying but there's one thing that they both got from their parents: their obsession. As long she could remember they both threw themselves into something full force no matter the cost.

The fish flaked apart beautifully underneath the golden crispy batter and as she dug into her food, she looked back up at her brother. "Either way, thank you. I didn't even know I needed this." She popped another piece of fish into her mouth.

	"You're welcome," he said simply, pausing to offer her a small smile before taking another bite of food. He'd needed it more than he'd realized, as well, and he was glad she'd messaged. And maybe if they did this more often, he'd finally figure out a way to share what he'd been through, like his therapist had encouraged. (Reply to this) (Parent)
