10/10, would cuddle again? ;)

[truthrunswild]

I hope so, or I'm gonna cry.

[independenceday]

Pretty sure if anyone makes you cry, Shan's going to whack them in the knees.

[truthrunswild]

He came into the picture after my bawling fits.

[independenceday]

It's probably a good thing for the knees of those who made you cry.

[truthrunswild]

He would probably more aim for the dick. He's at a perfect height.

Oh, shit. I can't believe I just said.

[independenceday]

Things to not say to the protective big sister: that.

However, this protective big sister has a pretty good sense of humor, so you're good. And I may or may not have just snorted.

[truthrunswild]

Just pretend he's never seen my dick?

[independenceday]

It doesn't really work like that, honey, but good try. It's okay, though. I know he likes being with you. That's what matters to me. He's a big boy, and old enough to make decisions about whose nether regions he wants around him. If you were an asshole, we'd have a problem, but you're not. You're a sweetheart.

[truthrunswild]

Um, I'm really hoping there ain't more than one of those said nether regions...

[independenceday]

I don't think so, honey. He's really loyal, heart and soul.

[truthrunswild]

He's on of my favourite people in the whole world. I think I was meant to come to New York to meet him.

[independenceday]

Kismet's a pretty special thing, huh? Shannon seems so much happier since you came into his life, too.

[truthrunswild]

I used to only think that existed with animals. You know, you see the little birdies snuggled up together on a tree branch, or you see two dogs running around just loving life together. I think with my folks not being together, I wasn't sure about it. He makes me laugh. We laugh so much together. That's what it's all about.

[independenceday]

I saw it with my parents, but I understand if you didn't see it that way, it would be hard to buy into it. I'm glad you're seeing that it can be real, though. I'd like to hope that someday, it'll be real for me, too, but I'm not sure.

[truthrunswild]

My grandfolks have it, but I always figured older people did it different to young people. Which is dumb now I know it's not true, but I was a kid who thought weird stuff like that when I was trying to figure out why my dad was gone. You haven't ever had it real?

[independenceday]

Not at all. I think older people had a special formula, and some young people still get lucky and find it, but it's special when you do. You thought that your dad was gone because he didn't have the same feelings for your mom as your grandparents had for each other? No, I haven't. Which is sad when you've been married, but that's a long story. I got 3 beautiful kiddos out of it just the same.

[truthrunswild]

Grandpa says it's because they didn't have wifi so they had more sex LOL. No, I thought I wasn't special enough to still want to stay around me when they weren't in love. He was an asshole. Shan told me.

[independenceday]

I think I'd like your grandpa. He sounds great. Oh, honey. I'm sorry you felt that way. I guess now that you're here with him you know that's not how he felt at all? He was an asshole. That's for damn sure.

[truthrunswild]

He's awesome. He taught me loads over the years. Oh, yeah. I mean, it's still hard because he didn't exactly want me, he only had to do it because I got sent here by the court. It's good he's gone then. No one wants to be around assholes.

[independenceday]

I love cool grandpas. Our dad's a great one, too. :) My little guys love him. Have you talked to him about it at all? I mean about him wanting you? I'm glad he's gone, too. He wasn't a nice person, and I got lucky, because my attorney was great and got me my boys. Full custody.

[truthrunswild]

My dad would probably keel over if he realised he had a grandkid somewhere. Yeah, we talk a lot. Can't really change how felt about stuff, though. Do you kids see him at all?

[independenceday]

Yeah, considering you're his only kid, right? I'm glad that you guys can talk now. It doesn't change the past, but it can certainly make for a better future. No. They don't. It's better that way. He doesn't have any legal rights to them anymore.

[truthrunswild]

My mom is the only female place my dad's bits have ever been near. He's gay, he was just trying to convince himself he wasn't when I happened. So, if he has another kid out there, then someone's been pulling a Great Jizz Robbery. Did he beat them too?

[independenceday]

That would be kind of a shock to the system, for sure. So now he's living his life openly as a gay guy? No, but he threatened to the last night I was there. That was the last straw. I had to go.
