Chapter Text
“Rise and fucking shine, motherfucker.” Rex yelped as Fives flipped his mattress, upending it and sending him crashing to the floor. “You’re gonna be late for your date if you don’t get the fuck up.” He was on his feet in seconds, chasing his younger brother out as Fives laughed so hard he could barely run, breathlessly calling for Cody or Jango to save him.
Jango barely spared him a grunt as he drank his coffee - he wasn’t about to do a blessed thing to save his second-youngest from his own stupidity. “Leave enough pieces of him to do the damn yardwork,” he muttered, rolling his eyes as Rex raced past, still bent on murder. He was relatively sure he wouldn’t actually kill Fives. Maybe. It’d be a good object lesson, either way.
Rex finally cornered his brother in the laundry room, only to stop short as Fives grabbed Tup, shoving him between himself and their furious, still half-asleep older brother. “Save me, vod,” he whined between breathless laughter.
“Fuck no.” Tup easily ducked the stranglehold, flipping Fives off as he wandered to the shower. “You did the crime, you do the time.” He snorted as he heard the strangled squawk from behind him, shutting the door to muffle the sounds.
