Well, that’s not weird.

I’m gonna need more to go off than that.

Ethan had never felt so relieved as he finally shut a file. He had been stuck at the cafe all morning to look over it. “I think I deserve a second drink.”

“You buying, or should I?”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“You can absolutely ask me about the family though. I can’t blame you for having questions.”

“The questions won’t stop if they start. I’ve got more of them than I know what to do with.”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“I’d really love that too.”

“I'm really bad at talking, and honestly...most of my questions are about the family, so...whatever you want to talk about.”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“You’re welcome to spend free time with me. I’d like to spend more time with you.”

“I would really like that.”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“Yet you fit in better than I ever did.”

“Only with Monica, she's taken pity on me. I don't really know anyone else very well. Family is a new thing for me.”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“Yeah I get that. Hell coming back I’m still adjusting to having a family again but that might be because I feel like the black sheep of the family.”

“If either of us is a black sheep, I think it’s probably me. I'm the one that randomly showed up like, twenty years late to the party.”

So sorry about today. Oh, I’ve had worse days. At least I laughed a lot today.

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

Are you excited?

I am, actually. I  mean I’m still wrapping my mind around this whole family thing so it’s a little weird, but I’m excited for her just the same.

[brooklyngilbert]

Gonna be an aunt...that’s going to take some getting used to.

[brooklyngilbert]

belle-gilbert:

Your dead family? Yeah, that would be a lot to take in.

Apparently, they’re not dead. I got here, I heard my father and the rest were long gone, but then a couple days ago I met my younger sister and my...aunt. All things considered I shoud not be surprised, but it’s a lot either way.

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“This town is awful, but also something special.”

“I’ve had worse. This place is just...judgmental. And really small. I’ve never really gotten used to it.”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbert-e:

“Stubborn, compassionate, strong, loving, makes rushed decisions, very emotional. I could go on and on about Jer.”

She didn’t know how to ask, but she knew she needed to do. “Is he a good person? I-Is he...is he sober?”

[brooklyngilbert]

thedianafell:

I seem to be learning something new every day.

That seems to be a common theme around here lately.

[brooklyngilbert]

thedianafell:

…Oh.

Oh?

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbert-e:

“Well then if you have any questions about the family I’ll happily answer them.”

“...What’s my father like?”

[brooklyngilbert]

gilbertlydia:

“I mean it’s not abnormal at least.”

“That’s not really a ringing endorsement, but I guess I’ll take it.”
