*complete, 2012 12, character: robert callen, dead: mike renko

RP: Mike and Robert
Who: Mike and Robert
Where: Their place
When: December 27
Summary: Mike and Robert talk

Mike wasn't a talker. He hadn't talked when his brother died, just got on with the job and followed through the motions, working harder to prevent the same happening to others. Now it wasn'Hhis brother who was missing, but the brother of the man he loved and he could see in Robert's behavior much of himself. Robert weren't talking, he was going through routine as if nothing had happened, but Mike knew what this kind of pain meant. Robert and Callen might not have had the relationship he'd had with his brother growing up together, but you'd have to be a fool not to see how much the family bond meant to the both of them.

And Mike wasn't a fool.

Things between him and Robert might have been strange for month. They both knew what the problem was, both were very good at ignoring it and pretending everything was fine. None of that mattered now though. Not when Callen and Sam were missing. So he stepped up and made sure to be there, take care of things while not asking. At least not at first.

Taking two beers out of the fridge, he walked over to the sofa where Robert was sitting. Handing him a beer he sat down next to him.

"You want to talk about it?" he asked.

"You can match with Isabella. I'm sure Savannah has the right shade if you ask. She's always so ready to share," he said with a grin. "I'm telling you that there's no room for anything, Mike. I love my brother, but I can't worry about him. I have to trust that he'll be all right, because I have things that need to be done to make sure we do get him."

Robert smiled down at Liam. "You and Isabella could move to another room," he teased. "Nu te las să pleci, scumpul meu." He looked up at Mike. "They can't be more fucked up than we are, but they'll be better trained; that's for sure. They speak more languages, or at least recognize them. I know Liam can understand them, and if we end up somewhere with a different language, they are more likely to understand than some of the adults. They will grow with their powers. They will know military strategy. We just have to keep them alive until they can kick ass on their own."

	"Okay," Mike said. "I won't bring it up again." "After what Reese said out there today? He'd have both our heads if we tried," he said with a grin. "I hope you're right," Mike said. "Too bad we can't teach them to kick ass yet," he added. He knew he'd do whatever he could to protect both children. He'd die rather than let anything happen to either child.

"Oh no, please do. I'd love to see you and Isabella wearing matching nail polish," he answered with a smirk.

"See, this is what I never got it. From the start. People give orders, other people bitch. How the fuck would they know what we do in our house? The point isn't to follow the rules, but not to get caught when you break them." He might have been a Colonel, but he was a pilot first. They broke every rule possible while on the ground and once he had been promoted, he told his men that their fault was getting caught.

"I'm always right. We established that over a year ago." He looked at Mike. "Savannah has started training. Not exactly with the kicking ass, but playing hide and seek. If we can get Liam to understand to teleport with Isabella, we might just be ahead of the game."

"I'm almost tempted to just to shut you up," Mike chuckled, though they both knew that wasn't what he'd promised to shut up about.

"They might not, but if they're telling us to sleep together there is a reason behind it," he said. "Getting caught might get us in trouble with Reese, not doing it might get us in a much stickier situation." He smiled. "And crowded or not, I'm fairly used to you in the bed by now." How that had came about was still sort of a mystery. This wasn't what he'd bargained for when they'd decided to start fucking.

"Now that's an idea," he said. "If we can do that they've definitely got an advantage. I suppose we should find a way to start practicing Isabella's abilities to change size too. It could come in handy. The problem would be to get her to understand when to do it and when not to."
