Tiana was holding up a paint can that she was popping open and they were all looking at the different colors on the walls and Tiana was shaking her head.

"I mean, it doesn't matter what color that is the inside of this house is, for me. After all, I am sleeping in the barn." She said with a shrug and they all looked at her. "What did I say?" She asked.

"Does this still have too much blue in this?" Lois asked after she had painted a stripe of it across the wall and the rest of them were staring at her.

"I still like the Huntsman's tribute." Tiana and the twins let out a long, collective groan at the words from Clark, whose chosen color absolutely did look like poop.

"Dad, I'm pretty sure that is just slang for poop." Jon stated, simply just speaking out loud what he, Jordan and Tiana were all thinking.

"Hey." Clark said and then he looked legitimately offended, much to Tiana's laughter and he was staring at her.

"Jonathan. Don't be gross." Lois said to her son, before she sighed and turned to her husband. "But also, he's not wrong." Jon smirked at the words and Clark groaned at everybody who seemed to be in agreement with Jon and then, Tiana chuckled.

"Mom? Can we just pick something?" It was a legitimate question and Tiana nodded slightly.

"I agree with Jordan." Tiana said surprisingly and everybody turned to look at her in clear astonishment. "Yeah I know, I never thought in a million years, that I would ever say those words either." She stated.

"Sweetie, this is an important decision. I mean we're finally going to be puttin' our own stamp on this house." Lois exclaimed.

"If you'd ever make up your mind." Jon spoke up and Tiana glanced at Clark, before his eyebrows raised as well and they were watching Lois.

"What about this color? Do you like this color?" Lois asked, quickly holding up their blue paint brush and Tiana had a feeling that she already knew exactly where this was heading.

"Whoa!" Tiana was laughing as Lois was covering Jonathan with paint and he gasped in shock.

"Oh, someone is just asking for the Huntsman's Tribute!" Jon was lunging after his mother with the paintbrush in his hand as Lois laughed.

"Anything but Dad's color!" Lois shouted and Clark looked offended.

"Oh, come on!" Clark shouted and Tiana was grabbing two different paint brushes as she flashed across the room, painting every one of them and then even managing to get Clark across the back with the Huntsman's Tribute, before he was running off quickly to deal with an emergency.

Meanwhile, Jon had completely and totally by accident, he managed to dump an entire can of bright blue paint on Tiana, when he had been trying to dump it on his brother.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry." Jon said and he was visibly biting down hard, just to keep all his laughter inside and then she was looking at him, before she swiftly shook her head and she was looking at them.

"Could I use the shower?" Tiana asked and Lois gestured up the stairs, before Tiana was flashing up the stairs immediately.

After a talk at breakfast about rules and responsibilities, Tiana was looking down the hallway to see that Sean had cornered Jordan against her locker. "Excuse me!" She called out and then, he was quickly turning around to look at her.
