[It's the end of a long week filled with family, and one more night of eating too much and tolerating people you're probably sick of. The food tonight features grilled chicken, potato salad, coleslaw and ice cream for dessert.

Of course, one last night of family isn't complete without photos of the gang and some dumb games to cap the week off. Here we go again:]

[She'll pose! Eventually.]

That would be best, I think. Three rows ought to be sufficient for our branch of the family.

[inafadingcrown]

Of course. You will join us when you have finished, will you not? As much as I hate to tear you from the camera, it would not be the same without you. [There's just a hint of teasing in there. She adores the intellectuals of her family and that Raine is a bit of a nerd is really just a bonus in her eyes.]

[ruin_mania]

Oh, yes, of course I will. That would rather defeat the purpose.

[But first she's checking if they're panoramic or regular, and how many megapixels.]

I wonder, will they be posted on a website or mailed directly to us?

[inafadingcrown]

Mailed to us, I hope. You know how useless I am with technology.

[ruin_mania]

Well, and that's why I'd help you if it were the other way around! [Raine did pick up on technology very quickly, considering that their family had been raised virtually without it.]

[inafadingcrown]

How ever did I manage without you?

[ruin_mania]

Entirely in analog, I think.

[inafadingcrown]

[A laugh]

And with a great deal less joy in my life.

[ruin_mania]

[Oh, Sister.]

You'd find a way, I think, but thank you nonetheless.

[inafadingcrown]

[Yep. She's just going to walk over and kiss Raine's cheek before dutifully taking her place for the portrait.]
