[imagining Bombay sleeping in the bathtub and nodding. . .]

[anyway, Lupin draws up a tiny, fond smile]

How long have you guys been together?

[BECAUSE, YOU KNOW. HE STILL THINKS THEY'RE MARRIED]

[papartner]

[ dude the bathtub is only half the story

also still a logical assumption ]

It's been a bit over three years? Weird when I think about it, it never felt like that long until recently...

[CUTE. . .]

How did you guys meet? Was it love at first sight?

[papartner]

[ he... opens his mouth to reply but then-- ??? ]

What..?

[survivaltricks]

[. . . blinks]

You have a daughter together, right?

[papartner]

Of course we do. But that doesn't have anything to do with this?

[survivaltricks]

It. . . doesn't?

[???]

Aren't you guys married?

[papartner]

We're her adopted dads... The situation is a little weird. And complicated. We're definitely not married though.

[survivaltricks]

[AW :(]

And here I thought you were a thing. . . sorry, I suppose I sort of made some assumptions, there.

[papartner]

I mean. We're not not a thing, kind of...

[survivaltricks]

Oh.

It's one of those.

[SYMPATHETICALLY]

Yeah, I'm involved in one, too.

[papartner]

Seriously? You're in something like this?

[ how ]

[SOMETIMES YOU MEET A GUY. . .]

[a bit wistfully, with a wide grin]

You haven't met Loki yet. He was on Thistle, too. He left when I did and just hasn't made it back yet.

When you meet him. . . you'll understand.

[papartner]

You think he's coming?
