It was Saturday morning, Don and Danny were in the kitchen, still half-dead. Danny was sitting at the table, playing with his cereal, while Don was making coffee.

He reached up to get two mugs; one mug came fine, but the other... the other's handle just came down with his hand. Don stared at the handle, it belonged to his favorite mug (which his niece had made). It took a minute or two for him to actually comprehend what had just happened.

His mug was broken.

And only one person could have done it.

Danny.

Don turned to look towards the person in question, but Danny was smart and had noticed Don found his mug. He was currently trying to sneak out, but Don had turned around too quickly, catching Danny as he stood up.

"What happened?" Don asked calmly, a complete antonym to his true feelings at the moment.

Danny chuckled nervously and rubbed the back of his neck. "Uh, gee, ya've gotten stronger, Donnie. Broke yer mug just by reachin' for it? Wow."

Don looked at him with a look that dared him to make another bullshit lie up.

"Well, uh, ya see, I was cleanin'..." Danny started, but stopped when Don scoffed to glare at him, "And uh, well, I accidentally... ACCIDENTALLY droppedyermug when I was tryin' to dust the cabinet."

Since when did Danny clean?

"Make me a new mug, now," Don said firmly. "That was my favorite mug, Danny, my niece made it for me."

"I know, I know!" Danny sighed, "But uh, you can have mine?"

Don glared at him. "Make me a new one."

"Don, you're not serious, my mug'll look like a flower pot.. a melted flower pot," Danny objected.

"Then I guess I'll be drinking out of a melted flower pot," Don reasoned.

Danny smacked his forehead and slumped down into a chair. Maybe he could just buy one...

"Don't even think of buyin' one," Don stated before heading off towards their bedroom.

Danny groaned and let his head fall onto the table. He should have paid attention to art class...
