tony parked the car in the very, very full parking lot. pepper had convinced him to take the audi instead of one of their
flashier cars. he stepped out of the vehicle, pocketing the keys before opening the back and helping his daughter out
of her car seat. he set her on the ground once she was out of her seat. tony shut the car door then looked over the top
of the car to see if pepper had gotten out yet.

the week had kind of sucked so far, if daniel was being honest. to start with, he and dylan had had a fight, and danny
couldn't even remember what about at this point, but dylan was still salty about it so that had put daniel in a rather
sour mood. this sour mood was worsened when the other horsemen noticed his mood and starting poking fun at him.
their mindless jabs ended abruptly when danny snapped at jack, and everyone was taken completely aback because
everyone knows that danny doesn't yell at jack. after yelling at jack, he of course felt incredibly guilty, but thanks to
ego and pride, couldn't bring himself to apologize. so, at this point in the week, him and dylan were fighting, lula and
merritt were avoiding him in fear that he'd blow up, and he was afraid to face jack because he felt bad. the week sucked.

pepper stared out of the windshield for a moment, letting the familiar feel of the carnival wash over her.
with a sigh, she steeled herself and pulled herself out of the car, leaving her hair down, since she knew it
made her look more relaxed on the outsdie than she felt on the inside. she turned, after closing the car
door, and smiled at tony. she made her way around the car to both of them, "are you excited?"

merritt, in an effort to give daniel space, was lurking around the entrance of the carnival. he kept himself
obscured under a hat, while subtly messing with a few passerby. he vaguely wondered where the other
two had scampered away to, and felt bad for both danny and jack, since it was rare that the horsemen
fought these days. he checked his watch over, before walking into the carnival.

tony smiled as their daughter, clementine, reached her arms up so pepper would pick her up. he glanced up as their
two older kids, rylee and sam, got out on the other side and walked around to them. of course, rylee wasn't actually
his daughter by birth, but he had never treated her differently. he smiled at them both as they walked around to the
side of the car him, pepper, and clementine were on. rylee, the oldest, rolled her eyes a little at her parents, "I don't
get why we have to come to this place every year..." she complained, "it's not like it ever changes."

danny was dealing with organizing the 'behind the scenes' part of their show. he was gradually working himself up to
apologizing to dylan for their fight when he noticed the older male out of the corner of his eye. even though he hadn't
quite worked himself up to the apology thing yet, danny stood up to his full height, which wasn't very high, and then
heading over to his boyfriend as he tried to convince himself that apology was a good thing.

lula was leaning on jack as they wandered around the carnival. their elbows were hooks as they walked, and eventually,
lula did approach the 'elephant in the room' as it's called. "i'm sorry danny yelled at you."

pepper smiled good naturedly, rubbing her oldest's back gently, "i'll let you go show up all of the tricksters today. I know you
want to." she joined hands with tony, as sam responded, "i wanna see you show up a bunch of hot guys, ry." his answering
grin made Pepper hid a laugh by biting her lip, leaning into tony slightly and kissing clementine's head.

jack glanced at lula, finding it impossible to not smile as the woman he loved. his mood soured a little, however, when she
brought up the newest conflict. with a weak smile, jack murmured, "don't sweat it, it was my fault, anyway." he reached
up with his free hand to squeeze hers, "something must have happened."

the male was surveying back stage and preparations for the actual stage, since he was apparently great at yelling at people
cough thanks a lot, merritt cough. it was clear from how hoarse his voice had become, that something was bothering
him. that something was danny. he couldn't swallow his guilt, and thought to find danny after the show.

tony chuckled softly at his son, clasping his shoulder as they started to walk into the carnival, "maybe some of your
friends will be here, ry," he said, hugging his son against his side. rylee rolled her eyes, "you are both annoying. I hope
none of my friends are here. they don't need to be subjected to any of you." she pulled out her phone and started texting
as they walked.

danny came to a stop beside dylan, just far enough away so that if dylan wanted to hit, kick, or handcuff him, he
couldn't reach. "uh... dylan?" danny started softly, shifting on his feet and looking down at his hands. "i- uh... I'm really
sorry.... both for the fight... and for also forgetting what the fight was actually about... but I would assume it had to do
with me drinking too much and I also apologize for that."

lula smiled at him sympathetically, "I'm sure he didn't mean it... it's just danny, something's always bothering him. and
you never know, maybe he forgot to take his medication or something. you shouldn't feel too bad, though, I mean he's
been yelling as all of us, even dylan- well I guess that was a bad thing to say since he's actually always yelling at dylan-
but- still, don't worry about it."

pepper laughed, walking beside rylee, "What's your newest trick?" she asked curiously, glancing at the ther three, before
settling her eyes back on her daughter. she could see so much of daniel's mannerisms inside her, and wondered how
danny would take it if he knew. rylee knew tony wasn't her real father, but she respected tony like a real father, and
hadn't expressed much interest to meet her biological father. pepper wondered when she would break and ask.

jack sweetly silenced her rambling with a chaste kiss, "i love you, lu. thank you for that, i needed it." he laughed softly,
showing that he was referring to her amusing ramble. "besides, it'll be fine after tonight, performing always relaxes
danny."

dylan went still at the sound of his voice, then turned, oh... danny... don't be sorry, it-" he slowly took a step closer, "it
was my fault, i'm sure. you have nothing to be sorry for." to prove his point, dylan settled onto his knees, and took both
of danny's hand into his, smiling up at him and giving his hands a squeeze.

Tony smiled as they walked into the carnival, happy to finally have a family. He turned to Sam and asked, "So, what's new with you?" patting him on the shoulder slightly. Rylee looked up from her phone at her mom and shrugged a little, "I dunno, I mean, I don't really.. do magic anymore..." she said with a shrug.

Lula tilted her head slightly as she nodded, "Yeah he's a weird guy. For someone with social anxiety that intense, you'd think he would hate talking to people and performing but he's actually literally the opposite..." She leaned heavily into him as they walked, "Danny's a strange kind of introvert- oh, look! Cotton candy!"

Danny snorted a little bit, pulling on Dylan's arms to signal he should get back to his feet. "You are such a moron. You don't need to apologize for anything- but that does beg the question- if you're not mad at me, why have you been avoiding me?"
