WHO Chris Perry ([personal profile] twicefated), Matt Perry ([personal profile] twiceblessed).
WHAT Two brothers try to figure out how to stand on opposite ends without tipping each other over. Chris is evil and no longer believes in the sanctity of a good/evil balance, and Wyatt is the good trying to stop whatever happened to him as a child to make him that way.
WHEN After the alternate s5 finale.
WHERE Everywhere P3 to start.
WHY because Leo is a terrible father dangit

They'd finally earned some peace and quiet. Even after the Titans had been destroyed, Piper's goddess-wrath calmed, and their new positions as the Charmed Ones' whitelighters was confirmed, there had been some time just settling. Hopping twenty-plus years into the past on a fool's errand had a way of uprooting a guy, after all. Then again, Wyatt seemed better adjusted to it, probably because he'd actually had longer to plan for it. For the first time ever, he had been some steps ahead of Chris and Chris had just followed along behind. If he took care of this now and thwarted Wyatt's only chance do something about the corruption, then it would be beyond worth it to squander some time in the past with his failure of a family.

On the plus side, it meant Chris had gotten to banish Leo and Wyatt could hardly stop him. They both needed the personal time with the sisters that Leo's clinginess would prevent. Chris had more of an interest in establishing underworld contacts and a power base to locate his future-abductor and possibly protect the demon, but if he was going to play along with Wyatt then he needed to not be entirely antisocial with Piper, Paige and Phoebe, too.

So now it was early afternoon at P3 before the band would show up, before Piper would arrive and start getting things ready for the day. They were at the bar and Chris was flipping through some of the older magical texts he had located somewhere down there while occasionally turning to glance at his brother. "Wait, hold up. Did you say they wanted you to go shopping with them?" he demanded. "And you accepted?"
