Bro should know better, at this point. After leaving for months, with barely no communication between the family, Dirk is going to be extremely attentive when he does finally return, and he's not going to let Bro get away with vague details. What kind of parent/former sibling would leave out details like that?

Still, the sheer casualness with which Bro says it means that it takes a moment to set in, but it's pretty obvious that he caught it, considering the look he gives Bro, one eyebrow raised, when he finally starts talking. "The usual, huh? I don't remember granting wishes as being quite normal."

Then, of course, before Bro can get away from the right topic, "Don't remember getting a boyfriend to be part of the usual, either."
