fernandabenson​:

Anyone want some cake?

Cake as well. You really didn’t have to go to all this trouble just for us.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

Well that is how I prefer it.

You and me both.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

There is still time.

I’ll stick close by just in case.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

Well no one is dead yet, I believe I am holding up my end of the bargain.

You’re more than holding up your end of the bargain. Elijah is happy, things are civil, everyone is still alive and you haven’t crushed all the bones in my hand, all positives.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

And I can assure you that I will be starting with that one.

I think that’s fair enough. Lets get through this gathering first.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

I can’t wait for this damn announcement to be out so I can stop holding my tongue.

I know. Soon enough they’ll all know.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

Mmhmm. Parker, hand!

I’m here, good call out.

[parker-norris]

fernandabenson​:

Hi! You must be Diana and Parker, it’s lovely to meet you both.

Likewise, it’s a pleasure to meet you Fernanda and Riley.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

I have promised to be on my best behaviour.

It’s all for our boy.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

You know me far too well.

Anything to help.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett​:

Remember when you feel like crushing a skull, crush my hand instead.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

Fine.

Thank you.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

Are you subtly telling me to stop snooping and let him do this alone?

I mean that’s not the worst idea. But I also know you do it because you care. So we snoop from a distance, and only step in if required.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

If he’s smart he will.

If there is one thing we know about Elijah, it’s that he is very smart. It’s gonna be fine.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

Exactly, his dating repertoire is extremely lacking.

He’s always been so focused on work. This job will probably be the same, even if he does have a thing for her, chances are he’ll probably put it on the back burner to focus on what’s he’s doing.

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

It’ll be fine. We’re here for him, nothing has happened yet. 

[parker-norris]

dianalycett‌:

He’s got too much of us in him for anything to go smoothly.

That’s true. We never could make things easy.
