some icemav polaroid reddit verse <3
"Earlier this week, someone made a post on reddit asking for help identifying anyone in a couple of old polaroids he had found in an old desk he had bought at a thrift store."
"I'm listening,” Ice says slowly, not entirely sure where Bradley is going with this, but he’s willing to hear him out.
"Someone I went to college with sent me the link because one of the men in the photos is clearly in the Navy." Bradley takes a breath and then keeps going, "In one of the photographs, the man in uniform is kissing the guy who is in civvies and in the next photo, one of them is holding a kid."
“Okay…” Ice doesn’t rush Bradley, he can see that he’s doing his best to figure out his words. He is starting to think that Bradley must have hoofed it here from his own spot on base.
“Now everyone on line is trying to figure out how old the men are and…”
“Ah,” Ice thinks he knows where Bradley is going with this, even if the photographs are recent enough, it could still affect the careers of any servicemen if the publicity gets to be too much. Why Bradley came to him however, is another mystery, but Ice can focus on one thing at a time.
"What year was this?" Ice asks, pulling his notepad towards him so he can make notes.
"Well, I look around four years old, so maybe 86? 87?” Bradley tells him, thinking aloud and looking at his phone, as if he’s trying to confirm it.
"You look around four years old," Ice repeats unthinking.
And then his brain catches up to what he just said.
"You," Ice says again, this time with more stress on the word. "Oh my god."
