[closed] you know where to find me

OTHER NOTES: None for now.
[ You'll find this one sitting on the porch smoking through a cigarette when you come around. Lyall's tucked in bed, poor thing fell asleep somewhere and has been out like a light since.
Don't... ask for the details, please. It was a little bit mortifying to come home and realize thatyour daughter the tiny was nowhere to be found. ]

You guys catch up?
no subject
[ Only too glad, of course, to let you lavish affection on him. His tone his pensive, and he doesn't look sad, at least not the way he had earlier that day when the topic had come up between the two of you. ]
I can't help but view her as family, you know? I'm beyond attached, and while it started as empathy... well.
[ He loves her. ]
no subject
He's looking down at the sheets beneath you both, a quiet look over his features.
There are things he could say: how he's watched you both, how he saw it coming from day one. Tala was a "happy accident", in a manner of speaking. Selene a continuation of that. Brianna was circumstances aligning because of time and place, but Lyall... ]
I don't blame you. She's got a knack for sneaking into people's hearts without meaning to.
[ Looking back at you now with a look in his eyes that tells you he feels the same. ]
no subject
[ Then, in a softer voice: ]
It only gets easier when you know, at least to some degree, why they are broken. What it must be like to be in their position.
[ He's not looking at you again. You've seen that particular kind of distance in your boy's gaze before. It always comes when he's remembering the less than pleasant aspects of his past. ]
no subject
No words from him just yet. Sometimes, there are things you aren't ready to share and he gets that the offer to open up to him has to be on your terms.
He is here though, waiting with open arms and a shoulder to rest your head. He always will, to the best of his abilities. ]
no subject
Smiling a bit, and wrapping his arms around your neck to draw you even closer to him. ]
I guess we'll have to keep working on it. We'll get through eventually, right?
[ If they kept trying, anyway. ]
no subject
We will.
[ It'll take time. Though it's true that the both of you can only do so much, because it really all falls to Lyall at the end, to figure things out, trying never hurts. And he will maintain that working at showing how much love and care is here for her when she's ready is always, always a good thing. ]
no subject
Oops. ]
We should probably go to bed.
[ The laughter and slight embarrassment is in his voice. ]
no subject
C'mere.
no subject
A moment later, though: ]
I'll tell you more if more things come to mind?
[ He doesn't run away from you anymore, about anything. These days, if he drops a subject, it's just because he's actually feeling much better about the issue already, or there's nothing left to say. ]
no subject
Okay, [ he'll turn towards you now, taking that with the kind of faith that comes after only one too many falls and recoveries. Things have been good, this subject is just difficult and whose solution has since been proven, won't come in one night.
Nuzzling in now, as is his fashion when you're both curled up together this way. ] Go to sleep, babe. It'll be better in the morning.
