Yo!

I'm sorry for not saying anything for a while or updating in- five years? Whoa- But I have actually rewritten the story because I felt like it wasn't going the way that I wanted. The last part of chapter 5 was off-putting because I got too excited when I wrote it. So, I spent a good amount of time rewriting and fixing the events to make it more believable that this is a Jude that had grown up in a very different environment, and taught different things.

I took that into consideration and formed it into something else.

I already posted the first chapter, so you can find it on my profile once you read this. I have many chapters finished, but I'll upload them in a schedule, maybe monthly?

I hope you enjoy it!

And to end this off, here's a sneak peak into it:

"Right. So, first day on your new job as a chef," Julius said as he placed a hand on his hip. Ludger nodded as he gathered the dishes. Jude excused himself, calling Lulu to feed her.

As Ludger got up, Julius placed a hand on his shoulder and smiled, "You're going to be a great chef, Luu, so give your best in every meal."

Ludger couldn't stop the splutter of laughter, "Pfft- sorry. I almost thought you weren't going to give me some weird prep talk thing."

"Hey- don't laugh," Julius said as he ruffled his little brother's hair, "Besides, I think the cafeteria would love you. After all, Jude and I haven't died yet."

Something flashed in his eyes as Ludger ducked out of his reach and slipped into the kitchen, "...Right."

"...Maybe I should get you a gift to celebrate your new job," Julius said after a moment.

Ludger placed the dishes in the sink and shrugged, "I wouldn't mind having one of those pocket watches of yours."

Julius came to stand next to him, ready to rinse the first dish, "If you really want a watch, I'll just buy you a new one. Those pocket watches are old junk."

"Then, why are you trying to fix it instead of throwing them out?" Ludger couldn't help but look at Julius suspiciously. His brother deliberately ignored it.

"Actually, how does a new tie sound? Gotta look sharp in front of the customers and all that."

"Ow, Lulu! Ugh, guys, we need to get her some diet kitty food," came Jude's voice, "She's getting waaaay to heavy thanks to a certain someone."

The two stopped for a second and looked over to see Jude hopping on one foot around the living room with a scowl on his face. They all shared a look and spluttered into laughter. For a moment there, Ludger couldn't help but feel warm and happy.

Just for a little longer, he wanted to keep this moment and treasure it to the fullest.
