ugh achilles would probably be so grossly in love once him and patroclus finally got together he’d hold his hand every where they went and always introduce him as his boyfriend then go on and on about all the amazing things he does like “did you know he’s in his 2nd year of medical school” and “he’s a published author” (“achilles that was a poem i wrote in 10th grade”) and achilles would take a bajillion selfies with him and their cheeks squished together and giving patroclus kisses and send him cheesy text messages all the time even when they’re in the same room

[superiorryan]

C'mon, it was funny. [gives Spencer puppy dog eyes] Where’s the sense of humor in the guy I’m totally in love with?

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[rolls his eyes and sighs] Fine, I’m not mad only because [he drops the blanket and pillow on the couch and pulls out a quarter from his jeans pocket then holds it up] …you are going to give me whatever this lands on. [flips the coin and it lands on heads] Oh look at that. [fuckboy smirk] Also it wasn’t funny it was scary. My heart barely started beating again.

[superiorryan]

[grab Spencer's hand and pulls him up the stairs] I have no problem with that. Gotta listen to the coin. [looks back at his boyfriend and laughs] You worry too damn much. We're about to remedy that in two seconds. [closes the door behind him before letting his knees drop to the floor, raising an eyebrow] Hold on to that coin; I'm flipping it next.

[superiorryan]

Oh? [he grins at Spencer] So are we gonna fight when you come back? I’m about it.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

Oh, we are gonna fight, but not like those lions. [he goes to put Athena to sleep then comes back down stairs and hands Ryan a pillow and blanket] Sprinklers turn on at six, I suggest you get your ass up before then unless you plan on taking a shower that way.

[superiorryan]

C'mon, it was funny. [gives Spencer puppy dog eyes] Where's the sense of humor in the guy I'm totally in love with?

[bad-res]

Let’s watch a horror movie so I can get scared and ride your dick for comfort

[superiorryan]

Well, your dad has a bad case of sneezing at night, ‘Thena. [mouths when Athena looks back at Spencer so she can’t see Ryan as he mouths, ‘from your dick’]

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

Oh. [she looks at her dad] You should take medicine for that. [Spencer glares at Ryan while Athena looks at the TV which is showing to lions mating] Dad, why are they fighting? [Spencer looks at the TV and sighs] Because one lion doesn’t have a filter. Now you are going to bed– in your room. [Spencer gets off the couch and picks up Athena] And you– [he points at Ryan before going up stairs] you are sleeping outside on the lawn. 

[superiorryan]

Oh? [he grins at Spencer] So are we gonna fight when you come back? I’m about it.

[superiorryan]

Yeah, well, well— yeah, you’re right. Your dad and I are pretty gross. He’s especially gross in about two hours from now.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[Spencer glares at Ryan and mutters] In about now hours from now. [Athena rubs her eyes and lifts her head up to look at Ryan] What is he talking about, dad?

[superiorryan]

Well, your dad has a bad case of sneezing at night, 'Thena. [mouths when Athena looks back at Spencer so she can't see Ryan as he mouths, 'from your dick']

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

Screw you, Ryan. Good. [leans away from the kiss and magically Athena wakes up cause kids have the worst timing] Ew! That’s so groooooooooooss. 

[superiorryan]

Yeah, well, well— yeah, you’re right. Your dad and I are pretty gross. He’s especially gross in about two hours from now.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

Oh really? Well, that’s good to hear because unlike Brian I will go all crazy ex on your ass and you won’t be able to leave.

[superiorryan]

The crazy part isn’t much of a stretch for you.

Honestly, I don’t quite think I’d ever want to leave. [presses a soft kiss on Spencer’s lips]

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[superiorryan]

Y’know, when I moved in with Brian, I ended up running away about like a week later. I don’t think I’ll be repeating the past, though. Not this time.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[places the blanket over Athena] Oh god, my theory of you being a fifty year old being trapped in a twenty year old’s body is becoming more and more true. 

[superiorryan]

What fifty year old owns the entire soundtrack to Wicked— wait, never mind, don’t answer that.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[Athena shrugged a little bit] I dunno. I just– Sponge– [she dozed off once again] I’m pretty sure she is out this time. 

[superiorryan]

In that case, National Geographic!

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[Spencer bit his lip to keep from saying something dirty cause his daughter is right fucking there and Athena just smiles at Ryan sheepishly before burying her face in Spencer’s neck] TV sounds great. What should we watch? Scandal doesn’t come on until another hour and an half. Also– [Spencer nodded to the other side of the couch near Ryan] can you hand me that throw blanket. 

[superiorryan]

[looking over at Spencer, Ryan catches a face he knows all too well; he throws Spencer a cocky grin] We can watch whatever you want, babe. Or rather, what do you want to watch, King? [he directed at Athena while leaning over to grab Spencer a blanket]

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

What? Oh yeah, I don’t have it bad at all. I can see how some people may think that, even the people with the kids. But I wouldn’t change a da– a thing at all. Like even when I use to pass out in the middle of class because Athena wasn’t sleeping through the night yet. Even all those times I had to be in the ER until five in the morning because she had a high fever or all the times she has puked on me. I know it sounds cliche as f– heck, but I love every moment. You’re jealous? –Yeah, yeah Chipotle. They should deliver. I think Subway delivers in some places, Chipotle should if they could. [he shrugged which caused Athena to stir and wake up a bit] Y’know Knight the people– they thought you were my dad too. Like a lot of them. All of ‘em. In Greek they would tell you what a pretty girl you had. It was confusing. [closes her eyes again and tries to go back to sleep]

[superiorryan]

You’ve made me soft. You too. [Ryan points at the half sleeping girl, unsuccessfully suppressing a smile] You guys are— [realizes he’s pretty much speechless and has no idea what else to say] I— we’re gonna watch TV now.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

[is completely speechless when Ryan is talking about his dad, but smiling wide af. He finally talks when Ryan gets all normal] Right, it would just be the worst if there weren’t anymore Knights around. I love you more, asshole. [was about to reply when Athena appeared on the bottom of the stairs, rubbing her eyes and in her PJs] I’m not tired. I wanna– [she walked closer the the couple on the couch] hang out with you and Knight. [she sat on Spencer’s lap and rested her head on his shoulder] We can watch a movie. Or go to Disneyland. Or go to a One Direction concer– [she didn’t finished since she ended up dozing off in Spencer’s arms. Spencer looked away from the girl and back at Ryan like nothing happen.] I dunno. Hopefully soon, I feel like they would get so much more business that way.

[superiorryan]

[Ryan instinctively shook his head at the thought of a One Direction concert, mouthing, ‘we’re not bougie enough’ before he noticed that the girl quickly fell asleep in Spencer’s arms] You don’t have it so bad, do you? Y’know, being a dad and all. I’ve always felt bad for people who had kids early, but now I’m feeling jeal— wait, weren’t we talking about Chipotle? Let’s talk about that.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

I mean [rubs the back of his neck then looks at Ryan] I am serious about having another kid.  Athena has grown up so fast, and yeah she still has a lot more growing to do, but she is no longer a baby. As bad as it sounds I was never able truly able to enjoy having a baby because I was so worried about being a teen dad and all that good shit. So yeah, I got one more year at Hartway, looking at at least three maybe four years at med school. By that time I will be twenty six, twenty seven, which yeah is still kinda young, but ideally better to have a kid than being fifteen going on sixteen. Plus sure I have Kathryn now, but I didn’t have her during my childhood and I don’t know if it’s the same for you, but for me being the only child was– kinda lonely. And if I didn’t meet Kathryn and Ma still died and Yiayia, Gods bless that crazy old immortal woman, did actually die one day I would be like alone.  So giving Athena a sibling would be a goal even if she would be like eleven years older than him or her. 

I just– [looks away from Ryan and down at his feet] I’m not trying to have a kid today, tomorrow, next week, or even next year. But yes, in the future I would like at least one more child. And yes, with you would be great since y’know I can finally admit to myself that I see us together in fifty years. –But we have only been together a little over a year and shit happens and you might not even want a kid and I just– I don’t know. I’ll stop rambling. Forget I said anything.

I love you, Ryan. [moves closer to the other and pulls him into a kiss] 

[superiorryan]

[taken aback by Spencer’s monologue, too stunned to say anything before the other has his lips on him]

[tries to talk when the two of them part, but words refuse to spill from his lips, finally, he manages something] I just— [stops, even when the mood is tense, Ryan can’t help but tease] I think my dad would’ve wanted that. I think about him sometimes, y’know? What he would think is best for me. I think he’d think having a kid is best for me. And I know I’m not... I don’t know, mature or parental... But. I think he’s right. And I think you’re right. And I want to make you happy. But more than that, I just— I have a good feeling about it. I think I’m right, too. 

[coughs managing to transform himself back into his normal, cocky disposition] ‘Sides, it would be a goddamn tragedy if I was the last of my bloodline to step on this Earth. It would be almost criminal, y’know? Depriving the world from more of... Us. I love you, too, Spencer. [looks away to smile because he physically can’t look at Spencer’s face right now because he literally thinks he’s about to tear up and what has Ryan become] So, when do you think Chipotle is going to start delivering?

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

Yeah better. I am comfortable with it. Maybe I have like the male version of baby fever. Sorry if I am lowkey freaking you out with all this dad talk. I will probably be over it in a week. 

So should we stage a divorce for you? Or we can go all Annalise Keating and you  find a pretend husband and I will be like Billy Brown and be the side guy even though I am really your main and we kill your husband and you are the morning widow. [wants to roll his eyes at Ryan but ends up smiling when he sees his abs] Yeah– you are right about that. [raises an eyebrow] My you?

[superiorryan]

[grabs the remote, turning down the volume and looking at his boyfriend] I mean... I— I... Are you really serious about having a kid? With me?

Nah. I don’t think I could live without sharing a bed with you anymore. I’m just so used to it. How your body fits perfectly into mine, the rhythm of your breathing, the way you feel so warm that I— I’m being lame. Fuck. I blame it on this whole mutual domesticity thing. I’ve gotten soft. Well, still hard where it matters. [laughs at his own joke] And yeah... You’re my, uh, my you.

[hella-rad-dad-spencer-blog]

I am a dad. I have been comfortable with this whole dad thing for about five years. You didn’t tell me much. You were so drunk and slurring so bad I just tuned you out. Plus I was barely able to read your text. 

A divorce wouldn’t look good for your image, so in return of being your perfect trophy husband I spend your money and we stay together. I dunno maybe I stop putting out. Also that what I was going for, but saying Mimosas minus the juice makes me seem more classy. Trust no dad whose first letter in their name is a G. 

[superiorryan]

Allow me to rephrase. You’re comfortable with this whole dads thing. Better?

I’m studying to be a lawyer, Spencer. Whatever image I’ll have in the future, it won’t be positive. Divorce would probably work in my favor. Show people I’m a human and not some monster obsessed with winning every case, which I am, mind you. ‘Sides, you won’t stop putting out for all this. [lifts up his shirt to reveal his abs like a douchebag] Especially don’t trust Greg. Greg is the one who I’ll have to beat the shit out of when he gets too drunk and tries to kiss my hus— you.
