Lock took Lillith's kiss with enthusiasm and returned it with equal passion. He threw his arms around her and tilted his head for easier access for the both of them. His tail wildly twisted and twitched behind him. When Lillith pulled away, Lock grinned, then nuzzled into her chest, solely to stick it to Chad what he had access to.

"Too hot for [i]you[/i] to handle," he said.

"Worse than the poison puff," Shock said.

That got another round of laughter from the trio, and a laugh with an attempted stifle from Sobki. The trio were happy enough to let Chad think it was the poison puff, as it meant they could screw with him again at a later date. Barrel returned Carver's popcorn toast. After that, all of them settled down again as Agatha took her turn. When the bottle landed, Lock's only disappointment came in that he had to let go of Lillith.

He shrugged, waited for Agatha to finish topping off her drink, and leaned over the panel between them to kiss her cheek. It was a faint peck, just enough to be felt for a fleeting second. Lock then took his turn and went back to snuggling against Lillith.

Barrel giggled at how quickly his older brother kissed Agatha and then got back to his girlfriend. Sobki kept one eye on Chad, and the other on the bottle. Shock simply kicked her feet and waited for another opportunity to mess with the game.

The bottle spun a few times at a high speed before it slowed as it approached Carmilla again. This time, it creaked right by her and landed on Agatha. Lock looked up from his comfortable spot and shook his head.

"We just did that."

Before anyone could say anything, he flicked the bottle into another spin with his tail so he didn't have to get up again. Shock watched the bottle. Lock's lazy spin technique sent the bottle not only spinning, but spinning away from the roulette wheel's center. With a flick of her magic, she not only kept the bottle from spinning too far, but let it land on an interesting prospect, mostly just to see what would happen.

"Better pucker up, you two," Shock said to her brothers with a devious edge to her voice.

Both of them caught that little note in her voice that she'd done it on purpose just to mess with them, not that either of them could call her out on it without ruining the trick. Barrel shrugged as the bottle's top pointed at him.

"Lock needs to be put to bed anyway," he said. "I'll rock him first."

Sobki glanced at Barrel and tilted his skull.

"Isn't he older than you...?"

"Yeah, but he's still the baby," Barrel said with a grin, "because we can hold him like one."

Lock flipped him off.

"Pick me up, and I'll kick your ass."

Barrel stood up and casually walked across the roulette wheel to get to Lock.

"You'd have to escape first, baby-legs."

Lock scrambled to his feet and bolted around the roulette wheel, with Barrel giving chase. Shock cackled as Lock tried to avoid their little brother. Sobki just readied himself to grab Chad in case he tried to interfere. They were on trickster turf, Chad had already insulted them, and that last remark about the twins had clearly tested what was left of their patience. While he was hoping the human boy would learn a thing or two, Sobki didn't think the lesson should come at the expense of getting involved in one of their bonding fights.

Lock's small, spry size made evading Barrel pretty easy - at first. The alcohol in his system made him slightly miscalculate an evasive tactic, and that was all it took for Barrel to catch him, forcibly cradle him, kiss his temple, then toss him onto the nearest couch.

As Barrel turned to head back to the roulette wheel, Lock got up and made good on his earlier threat. He jumped up and - on the landing - planted both feet firmly against Barrel's rump to knock him over. Barrel went down with a thunderous crash. Lock crawled over Barrel's back to put his little brother in a headlock, used his tail to bind Barrel's wrists together, and gave his little brother a painful noogie. Barrel tried to throw him off to no avail. Once Lock got him to properly submit, he grinned, reached down to give Barrel a return kiss on the temple, then let him go.

Shock, who had been laughing herself sick, calmed down enough to comment.

"Aww, you two really [i]do[/i] love each other! You even kissed and made up!"

"Fuck off, Shock," Lock said, though by his smile and playful tone, it was clear he didn't mean it.

"Yeah," Barrel agreed. "Fu--!"

"Language!" his older siblings said together.

Barrel just pushed himself up and stuck his tongue out at his siblings - he had to shift his head to either side to give them both a proper view. He then took his seat as Lock settled down by Lillith again.

"All right," Shock said, in a "moving right along" tone. "Take your spin, Lillith."
