No, I think that all sounds really cool.

[Seriously, he does.]

But Thanksgiving is the best holiday ever, and should not be ignored.

[impulsive]

Because of the food, right? Joan makes the best turkeys.

[Wait wait, Joan and Jay are iffy subjects, so...]

Do you cook the turkeys? Or is that all Grandma's thing?

[supertardiness]

Joe's actually - at least at this point.

[a beat.]

Joe is Iris' dad. Have you had the chance to meet him yet?

[impulsive]

Not really. Great-Grandpa wasn't around by my time.

[At least, he's guessing so given how little he knows.]

[supertardiness]

[He nods in agreement.]

Well, you'll get to meet him now. You can come over for dinner tonight. I'm sure he'll get a kick out of having another Allen with a speedster metabolism around.

[impulsive]

Really? [Bart's trying so hard not to look hopeful. Family meetings don't usually go so well for him.] You don't think he'd mind??

I should bring him something, though. Cake, right? Flowers? Ooh, maybe a subscription to one of those boring magazines I've heard he likes?

[This is clearly the Most Important Question on his mind: what does a guy bring to his first meeting with Great-Grandpa?]

[supertardiness]

[He laughs a bit at that, before shaking his head.]

I think cake is probably your best bet.

[impulsive]

Awesome! I can do that.

[He IS the kid who once read the entire San Francisco library - cover to cover - out of complete boredom.]

Buuut Great-Grandpa's not getting a regular store-bought cake, so! You're gonna be my sous-chef.

[supertardiness]

[His eyebrows go up a bit at that in surprise.]

What - me?

[impulsive]

Uh-huh. How hard can it be?

[famous last words]

[supertardiness]

[ .... ]

Can we make it breakfast? I'm good at breakfast.

[impulsive]

As a welcoming present? Is that normal for the 21st century?

[... he could probably be convinced into it.]

[supertardiness]

[He shrugs.]

In my opinion, any time is a good time for waffles and bacon.

[impulsive]

Hm...

[He thinks about it for all of a millisecond...]

Okay! Let's make the best waffles he's ever had!

[supertardiness]

Great.

[Barry grins as he digs into his burger again.]

Sounds good.

[impulsive]

Aw yes!

[Bart inhales his food with sudden gusto. He's not exactly sure what Great-Grandpa'll think of waffles & bacon, or what Grandpa - Barry thinks of him now, but he doesn't think it'll be so bad or awkward anymore.]

[supertardiness]

[Bart has nothing to worry about. Joe will likely adore him, one way or another.

So long as he doesn't call him Great-Grandpa.

But for now, they're just going to inhale food to their little speedster hearts content and we will call this one a wrap? /scene?]
