[Okay, she's coming, she's coming, but there's something way more crucial here:]

'Counting sheep'?





🤔

_{[Did she just get emoji'd by Wolverine Jr.? Will wonders never cease.]}

Sleeping. That's what you say in English. Counting Zs or counting sheep means you're sleeping. Don't ask me why, it's a hell of a lot less crazy than some desert world with a two-headed dog.

How are you? With him back. And all this crap.

_{[Easier to ask like this, with the impartiality of a screen and English lessons.]}

[She's been making an effort to learn, sue her.

Or take away her Fluid forever.]

Counting Z's...? That is strange.



I'm alright. I think.
Confused about what to say to him. About things.
He is not my father, but he is.

[nakedsingularity]

But probably the least strange thing you'll hear today.

_{[But yeah, English is weird. There's no real good way to describe an alternate universe sperm donor, either.]}

That why you didn't want to tell me?

[shoplifter]

I don't know. I wanted to think about what to say.
It was a lot to think about. And I know he is not the one you were close to...
I figured you two would run into each other soon, anyway. It is not a very big town.

We weren't that close, we just lived together before you showed up. _{[Again, a denial.]} There's enough here to worry about without you worrying about protecting my feelings on top of everything else. You can let yourself off the hook for that part.

_{[Likewise, it's not Laura's job to manage her feelings. This Logan matter is... whatever. Another thing to file away and deal with later.]}

For the record, the offer's there to talk about how you're feeling about it. Him being back. It doesn't have to be now, but if you want.

You can relax, that's the end of the sappiness for one day.

_{[They can wipe the sweat from their brows.]}
