Just Another Day (Open)
To James his birthday was just another day. He got up and immediately went to the gym. After a two hour workout and a hot shower he grabbed breakfast that consisted of two bagels and a cup of the best coffee one could get. James had become somewhat of a coffee snob since living with Mom and Tony, despite what MC claimed he liked for coffee. She didn't know him yet or even try to get to know him so he ignored what she said about him.

He headed for the rec room to play some video games for an hour. He knew he was an addict, he would admit it, but he had grown up a bit and was now limiting himself to two hours a day. An hour in the morning and an hour in the evening. There were more important things than video games and he had learned that lesson.

Mom had sent his gift and it arrived a day before his birthday. It consisted of a vacation for him and Val along with a gift card to his favorite video game store. She called and promised that she, Tony and Nick would visit soon.

He leaned back on the couch and hit start.

	Misha's package arrived right on James' birthday. He sent items that James must surely be missing about New York, namely a Mets jersey and hat. He included gift cards to a large game store and several restaurants. What was life without food and entertainment? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Nothing real exciting going on. I got kidnapped in Japan and Grogg's autograph. I'll have Darlene send a picture. He's pretty cool. I heard there were dinosaurs, but I missed them. Doesn't anything happen out there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I suppose," he answered. Mom asked him about his relationship with Valeria, but James wasn't too forthcoming about it. "Dunno. Mom's been bugging me to come back. I guess I should soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Dani had gotten word that it was James' birthday. She made her way to the living room with a couple of video games that she thought he'd like in hand. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Hey," James said as Dani came into the room. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	So, while she had to admit, James got on her nerves a little bit (Cap-types often did, even though she rather liked both of his kids back home), he a teammate, and, yeah, a friend. Who she admittedly knew almost nothing about. Other than he had horrible taste in shirts. But she knew the video game thing. So she went with one of the new releases, Super-Buddies Racers.

	Stevie would get a thank you. James didn't expect gifts from anyone so what he did get was a nice surprise and appreciated. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	James would receive a care package of unreleased video games and some clothes from Natasha and Tony. There was also a note promising that the two of them and Nick would visit. There was also a week's vacation to anywhere for him and Valeria. (Reply to this)

	James put his game on pause and went to answer the door. He opened it and a big smile came to his face. His arms wrapped around his girlfriend and he lifted her up off of the ground, giving her a big kiss in the process. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Val kissed him back, smiling. "Happy birthday." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you. I like this birthday surprise." Yes, there was a big goofy grin on his face. (Reply to this)(Parent)
