It's okay - you're good.

Don't apologize. I'm sorry I busted in here like that. If it's any consolation, I did the same to Varian earlier... But I promise, I'm not angry. Not sincerely angry.


Fern, the only way you could mess this up is if either of you end up hurting each other somehow.

[laminae]

ok
thanks
and thanks for telling me
it's probably better that i'm finding out from you and not some donk who'd just let me keep on freaking out

i don't want to hurt him
i never wanna hurt him
i don't know what i'd do if i did
he's the most important person in the world to me

[shiro2hero]

If anyone does pull that, let me know. I'll deal with them. [You're family now buddy.] Least I can do - for scaring you myself.

Then you'll do just fine.
Both of you will.

[laminae]

really? geez, that's nice of you
thanks man
it's ok, the two of us probably should have realized what it was

[It's still a lot to take in, but Shiro is doing a very good job of making him feel better.]

i hope so
i think we've done ok so far
there have been times we've screwed up but those times have also made us stronger

[shiro2hero]

Well, you're family now. That's what happens when you're family.

Then... there you go. You'll be just fine - both of you.

[laminae]

[Oh, geez. That really hits him in the heart.]

i am? wow
i kind of really screwed things up with my fam back home and my human dad is a big jerk who only cares about himself
so this means a ton
you're family too!

[shiro2hero]

Well yeah. Varian's pretty much our kid at this point - so anyone who marries him is part of our family too.

[Sorry not sorry, Adam.]

That
I'm sorry to hear that. You're definitely not the only one in that boat.

[laminae]

ha ha cool

yeah? you know what that's like?

[shiro2hero]

Not personally, no.

But I've known enough people in that situation to get an idea.

[laminae]

oh! oh haha ok
well that's cool
i'm glad V has you around

[shiro2hero]

And now you do too.
