[ He remembers when they were kids and would braid each other's hair at night. Oh the days when they were dressed identical... until that one morning when their mother took Ezra into the bathroom with scissors and cut his all off. "There," she'd said. "Now you'll stop pretending to be Elijah and causing trouble."
He'd checked the cabinet but he realizes he doesn't know where Hank stores 'em. So he heads back into the kitchen. Aw. So cute. ]
[ Yeaaaah, fuck their parents tbh. There's a reason neither of them have stayed in touch. Maybe they can braid each other's hair again, one day. Eli's definitely not fashionable enough for that, but who knows? Maybe a little vampire vanity will finally make him step up his game.
And Hank? Well, he keeps his hair ties... everywhere. Sumo is probably to blame for that. He loves playing fetch with Mordy. Hank checks a seemingly-random drawer in the kitchen and hands Elijah a hair tie. #justalphathings, you know. ]
He was calling to let us know how things were going with Chloe. She's in ship-shape, should be well enough to pick up Eli, though I let him know that she's gonna have to come by once the sun sets since, y'know. [ He gestures. They care too much about Eli to let him go out in the sun now. ] Fowler's pissed, too. Not at us, but with the supernatural bullshit. They're setting it down as a homicide, but even if we can't put it on the books, everyone knows that shit was vampires.
[ Yeah, he's not surprised. His (chosen) family is just so cute. How did he get so lucky?
Gavin goes to freshen up his coffee and lights up at the update on Chloe. ]
That's awesome. [ When he heads back over to Eli he gives him a little nudge. ] Told you everything would be fine, right?
[ But the news about work makes him from and take a big sip from his mug. ] Ugh. Yeah, we need to figure out how to get up to date on this supernatural shit. We don't need the whole fucking county learning vampires and werewolves are real.
[ Elijah smiles, relieved to hear of Chloe's progress. If there's anything androids are better than humans at, it's surviving. Still, it's an immense weight off his shoulders to hear that. ]
I knew she'd be alright.
[ Obviously! He made her!! His personal android isn't going to be made of the same mass-produced plastic as everyone else. But right, more than half of the people here are cops so they have to worry about that shit. ]
Pretty sure we'd attract all the wrong kinda people if that shit got out. We've gotta get shit under control, and soon.
[ Elijah helpfully adds: ]
I own most of the media outlets in Detroit. Well, Cyberlife does, if we want to get technical. But I can make sure it doesn't get out. Just getting that out there.
[ Chloe can withstand anything, Gavin knows that. Though that might also be his brother's influence making him feel so confident. (And relieved.) ]
We do. [ He takes another swig from his mug, turning to look at Eli when he talks. When he lowers the mug he's smirking and it's definitely a Kamski Smirk. ]
Elijah, your unethical capitalistic ways are sometimes so very handy. I like that idea.
[ Oh, those Kamskis. So dangerous. Hank can't help but grin. He loves them, no questions asked. Plus, he's not beyond using the tools at their disposal to do some ground control. That's just what you do. ]
Alright, Eli. We'll probably need your help to keep track of all this shit, anyway. I'll see if I can set up some kinda... meeting or whatever to see if I gotta lay down the law with the other supernatural assholes in Detroit.
[ The last bit comes out very Alpha, but that's ok. He's gonna have to start letting people Know that you don't fuck his pack and his territory, so he's gotta get used to it. ]
[ Oh baby. Gavin puts his mug down and heads over to his husband, draping his arms around him. ]
You know I love it when you talk like that. [ Sorry this is a serious discussion but he has to flirt. ] I can't wait until you run this town, babe. It's gonna be so hot.
[ Hank snorts, though having his mate draped all over him sure does feel nice. ]
Don't count your chickens just yet, babe.
[ Ohh, but he so rarely stretches his alpha senses, it really does feel right to have Gavin all over him. Elijah's a little, y'know, deeply conflicted right now, but he kinda wants to throw himself at Hank's feet too.
He'll just, uh. Step up and kinda stand close to Hank because he's gotta. ]
Whatever you need. My resources are at your disposal.
[ Just touching and nuzzling his husband all over. ]
You're gonna be great. We're gonna get our shit together and protect everyone in this town.
[ He loves that delightful vibration in his chest when Hank is all Alpha-y. It really hits him deep, deep down. And having Eli here makes him feel even stronger, more solid. ]
At this rate I'll be king of Detroit. You guys are a bad influence.
[ But he smiles, leaning into the affection. Not to be left behind, Elijah comes around and wraps his arms around Ezra's shoulders too. They should all join in on this, ok!! ]
And besides, you'd make a great ruler. Certainly a nicer one than either of us would.
[ Hank's blessed!! He's so blessed. It's definitely nicer than it is weird to have the support of his mate and his twin who happens to be the richest guy in the world. He chuckles and turns this into a group hug. Yep. ]
Just my luck getting stuck with both you assholes for the rest of my life.
[ Hank snuffles back, nosing at Gavin's hair (and even Eli's,) as he pulls them closer. He's one lucky jerk, that's for sure. He also wouldn't put it past them to plan something like this. ]
Guess I fell for it, hook, line and sinker.
[ yep, he's part of the family now. The weird, weird Kamski family that's really just the brothers and babcia because fuck their parents. Elijah leans against the both of them too. Has he felt this safe, this comforted before? Ever? He can't recall. ]

Yeah, we definitely shouldn't rule anything. Gonna leave that one to you... but yeah, we're gonna be a bad influence. Duh.

You should have known we'd play the long con.
