[ Newt likes keeping Lukas fluent in German. Definitely makes visiting the grandparents a whole lot easier. Especially Grandpa Geiszler. Poor dad never could get the hang of English. For dinner they'll have something he's cooked a thousand times. He doesn't want to hear from Hermann about ~~his precious kitchen~~. Really, the dude acts like it can never be clean. ]
How was it without all the real scientists running around?
[ Lukas does as he's told. He's surprisingly a good listener. Definitely one of those moments where you know Hermann's DNA was involved. ]
[ Lukas is such a well behaved kid. He sits at the table, drinking at his tea very carefully like both dads had taught him. He's so focused, he manages to be quiet for a few seconds. Plus, Hermann's been getting better about slowly teaching him the importance of manners. Hey, he's a kid. It'll take time.
Newt, on the other hand, is rolling his eyes and continuing to talk. ]
Handle something a little more dangerous than chalk and you might understand, dude. [ And with a spatula flailing around in the process, ] WHY am I the one cooking if you think I'm going to spontaneously combust???

Because the spray isn't far away if you do.
[ He gives a wink to Lukas, who tries to smother his giggle with his hand. ]

[ He keeps focused on the task while griping at his other half. It's a skill. Newt does however pull away to point a spatula at their son. ]
Quit taking his side.

I didn't say you were. Just that I would hose you down if you catch fire.

[ Yeah, Newt's actually multi-tasking. Talking, chatting, cooking, breathing. He's a man of many many talents. ]
