A/N: More fic of the Halloween variety! Requested by lunabelle.
Jack + Andy have a very important father-son conversation.
"But dad-!"
"Look, I already explained that the most important candy is chocolate so you have to give mom all of your sour candy," Andy explains to a very agitated three year old.
"But..."
"Nobody but your mom likes that stuff, duh."
"I do!"
"Well... why would you want Sour Patch Kids when you can have a Snickers?"
Jack sits there, staring into his pillowcase and sighs the most melodramatic heave of air possible like an exasperated, bankrupt accountant. Andy doesn't get it - chocolate candy bars were the whole point of Halloween. Trick-or-treating for fruity candies sounds so lame and, just half an hour ago, Jack agreed with him. Standing up suddenly, he walks into the kitchen with his goodies.
Well, maybe...
"Andy!" April's voice rings out, and a moment later she's peering around hallway's corner with a furious glower.
"Oh, hey babe..."
"Jack, your dad and mama need to have a conversation about what the best candy is, okay?"
"Uh huh," a little voice pipes up from behind April.
Andy's pretty sure his son scampered off with his entire share of Jack's candy. It only hits him later, and his wife is the cleverest person on the planet.
