    Summary

    “Anya, can you tell me where you’re from?”

    “From the orphanage, Papa. But if anyone asks, I’m from West Berlint,” she recited, just like they’d practiced months ago for her admission interview in this very room.

    Twilight shook his head. “Not our story we made up. I’m asking for the truth. Where did you live before the orphanage?”

    Summary

    “Westalians have horns.”

    Anya blinks. “No they don’t.”

    “How would you know?” her classmate taunts.

    Because Anya’s Papa is Westalian. Unless... he's hiding his horns from Anya!

    Summary

    The boy shifts on his feet. “The year is two thousand and eighteen? Common Era?”

    Slowly, smile still plastic on his face, Suguru faces Satoru. This fucking dumbass. “Satoru,” he says, dangerous edge to his voice, “what did you do?

    Satoru makes some bastardization of a sound, half between a laugh and a cough. “...Whoops?”

    “I,” Suguru grits, pinching two fingers together, “am this close to mass murder.” He’s joking. Probably.

    Summary

    Of the things Ellie could choose to spend her time on as a teenager who has finally recovered enough from playing labrat to be awake for longer than an hour at a time, he supposes there are worse things she could pick.

    It doesn’t make the idea of a frog hotel less weird, though.

    “And what is the point of this again?” He asks as Ellie carefully rearranges spare bits of pipe she asked him to bring home from his current jobsite for the sake of this project of hers. They’re on arrangement twenty-three by this point, and he’s not entirely sure that these “hotel guests” of hers are going to care about the aesthetic of their accommodation as much as Ellie clearly thinks they will.

    Still, it's the most enthusiastic he’s seen her about anything in weeks, so if playing frog preference architect makes her happy, he’ll do his time shifting pipes around at her instruction.

    He’s done far worse for her, after all.

    (on frog hotels and breaking generational trauma)

    Summary

    Feeling guilty about leaving Joel to play single parent yet again, she rises and follows, finding Joel on Ellie’s bed with her all but on his lap, face tucked against his neck. His chin is resting against her head, and as she watches from the place in the doorway, he tucks his chin enough to kiss her hair.

    “Easy, baby girl,” he says, a low, soothing croon. “You’re okay, baby. I’ve gotcha.”

    Ellie’s response is too low for her to hear, and based on the way Joel’s expression doesn’t change, she’s not sure it’s clear enough to actually be intelligible.

    “Shh,” he hushes. “I’m here, baby girl. I’m here.”

    After a few more minutes of watching Joel handle parenting with ease like he didn’t have a twenty year hiatus between children, Tess decides to lay back down.

    It seems like he’s got it under control, after all.

    (after settling back in jackson, tess learns that after always doing it as a single parent, joel is AWFUL at sharing when it comes to raising a kid)
