They're your friends too, you know. [A few months ago, he might've glossed over the truth, because who wants to admit that they were forced together? Grayson and Wally were best friends. Ergo, Damian and Jai needed to be best friends too. Ditto for Chris and Irey and basically any legacy he'd stumbled across -]
But they're also old family friends. I would've spent too much time with them anyways.
[Still, his tone's light and teasing, because he knows. Under normal circumstances, he would've never sought them out. Jai was a motormouth; Irey insisted on poking her nose everywhere; Milagro had her pride; and even Chris had his moments of judgment. Save for Colin, he hadn't wanted their company. Not at first.
Then a few months had turned into years, and well? He stopped minding their incessant intrusions, and in turn, they changed him. People change people. Wasn't that how it went?]
