(It's fine, she doesnt have a surname lol. We'll just say it's Scott ^^ and o.k. my bad I just figured he was youngish because of his picture, but I know it's hard to find a good looking anime guy that doesnt look 16 lol)

Megan sat on the back of the couch as Ann left them alone with their new "father". She was tiny for her age, partially from malnutrition when she was young, partly because of her genes. When she was perched on the back of the couch, her arms out to either side for balance and her feet not quite touching the ground, she looked a lot few years younger than she actually was. Mason leaned against the couch beside his sister, looking over at Johnathan as the man started talking. Mason couldn't help but smile a little at the obvious relief the man felt about the whole food situation. They weren't picky about food, but there really wasn't a way for Johnathan to know that. At least the man seemed to care about having stuff they liked around, that was an improvement over some of the other fosters they'd had. Megan gave him a strange look, shrugging her shoulders "It's not like we're high maintenance or anything. Seriously, you can relax, we're used to looking after ourselves." She told him, her tone implying that she would prefer if he just ignored them.

They didn't say anything as the man removed his glasses and started rambling a bit about the room situation. As soon as Johnathan stopped talking they both spoke at once. "I want to share a room with Mason." Megan announced, her tone slightly less bratty than before. The two had never shared a room before, most of their other foster homes required girls to stay together and boys to stay together, since they had never been the only children in the home until they came here. "Why don't you use them anymore?" Mason asked, speaking at the same time as Megan so that the two might be a bit difficult to understand. Mason had not-so-subtly checked out the entertainment center when Johnathan drew his attention to it so he could tell there was some nice equipment and it was strange that Johnathan wouldn't use it.

Then Megan spoke up again, having belatedly registered that Johnathan had said they were going to the grocery store. "I dont want to go grocery shopping." She said, once again in a snotty tone. She hated grocery shopping, it was boring. Mason glanced at her, then glanced back at Johnathan. He didn't mind going to the store but he wouldn't if Megan did not go because he did not like to be too far away from her even when he logically knew that she wasn't going anywhere. The farthest apart the two ever got was when they had different classrooms in school, and even that was rare since they tended to have the same required classes. He was also wondering when the 'laying down the law' would happen, usually the first thing their foster parents did was sit them down and lay down the house rules that they would be expected to follow. This was usually met by Mason staring blankly at them and not really paying attention, and Megan arguing with each rule that was stated just for the sake of being difficult.
