Sebastian: You have nothing to be sorry about, Hunt. You didn't do anything. I'm sorry I snapped.

Hunter: How about we just both be sorry?

Sebastian: My father hated you because I was gay and you were with me, Hunter. That's it. Yours probably hated me for the same reason, or because I was an asshole, I don't know.

Sebastian: I've never liked talking about my dad -- he's a piece of shit and I just don't care to discuss it, okay? You and Avery and Maman are it. That's all I give a fuck about in my life.

Hunter: Okay, Bas. We won't discuss your father.

Sebastian: Hunt, stop. You're not bothering me.

Sebastian: You know this shit is a sensitive subject for me.

Hunter: It's the truth, Sebastian. Your father hated me, mine hated you. It's fine. We got married without them, we didn't need them. It's never caused you to totally shut down on me before.

Sebastian: Nothing. I told you, I'm tired. It's been a long ass day.

Hunter: Okay. Fine. I apologize for bothering you then.

Sebastian: I really don't want to talk about this.

Sebastian: I'll give the kid a chance.

Hunter: Sebastian? What is wrong with you?

Sebastian: So the situations are entirely different.

Hunter: I'm just saying, they didn't approve of us either. And I do feel to come degree your father simply didn't like me.

Sebastian: Maybe.

Sebastian: You know damn good and well the objections came from us both being men and that was it.

Hunter: I know, love. I know.

Sebastian: Dammit. Fine.

Hunter: Maybe we'll get lucky and she'll get over him.

Hunter: I suppose I can't fault her too much. Our family didn't exactly approve of us and that only made me want to marry you more.

Sebastian: We both do.

Sebastian: Fuck, this means we're really going to have to give this kid a chance, huh?

Hunter: I suppose so.

Sebastian: Well, he's bold, I'll give him that.

Hunter: I do favor a bit of boldness

Sebastian: You're kidding.

Sebastian: What did he say?

Hunter: That he loves her, will prove himself blah blah. I've gotten tired of fighting with the kid, Bas.

Sebastian: Then I eagerly look forward to it.

Sebastian: Really? What about?

Hunter: Wanted to talk about how our tiff with him is affecting Avery.
