He shouldn't be making any fuss over this. He took in a breath to calm down, but there was something persistently aggravating about that glare... Glares are annoying no matter who they come from. His brow furrowed. Okay, fine. If he couldn't concede to a degree and receive something close to a welcome, he was giving up.

"I have two kids that are still intact, if that helps, not that they're here to prove their worth to you or anything. My wife works more than I do, and... Well, I work with George. Family business isn't all that demanding, so I'm the one who's home with them. Aside," and the twins themselves were so fond of pointing out, "I'm old. I don't think it can hurt to have a geezer at your disposal in some circumstances."
