They played video games until dinner, in which Trish kicked Jon’s butt. Repeatedly. Then they all gathered and Jon was forced to listen to his sister point out that he was ‘wasting his talent’ and he could ‘do so much better’ if he only tried. Which was pretty much par for the course.

He retreated as soon as he could to his apartment, and crashed for the night.
