Virgil: Don't worry, I've got a few knives up my sleeve.
Elliott: I think you mean cards.
Logan: They did not.
Virgil, pulling out knives: I did not.

From the stories by the loveliest flower in the land, @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors
Dizzy really said 'i know this is your child but this is my kitten now actually' and we love that for her
(also I am always here for awkward ellie they are easily my favourite character in all of the things)
Elliot: i dont think im comfortable raising a child from babyhood. all kids require unique care but i just dont think im suited to be the primary caregiver for someone that small. i'll foster older kids, who are better suited to my anxiety levels
Prez: [is 14, full of rage, and old enough that they dont trigger the Small Child social anxiety bypass] >:(
Elliot: ah. shit.
FOSTER PARENT ELLIOT
MY BELOVED
THAT SUITS THEM SO WELL I'M SO HAPPY
yes!! elliot fosters older kids (Prez at 14 is their first, and 14 is about as young as they take in) and a lot of.... i'm blanking on a term thats Not Shitty but kids that need a lot of extra help or arent doing well in the foster system because theyre struggling with behavior issues, mental health problems, or other disabilities
also i couldnt figure out a way to get this in that felt organic because it was Prez's POV, but LAMP gave the Waller farm to Elliot when Matt and Shelley passed, so thats where this takes place. so elliots got a big farm with lots of space and lots of productive things to do (anger problem? come chop wood with me, your rage will be cured) for the average upset teenager
and many therapy goats
Annrlgenflrnskfnslmr Awwwww!!!! I wish I had more words but I just. Them. Roman being a good uncle is killing me <333333333 I so hope we get more of Elliot and Prez
Roman and Prez's relationship is gonna go such a fun place its basically
Prez: Fighting you! >:(
Roman and Elliot: no, we're family. i love you and protect you because im your AdultTM
Prez: [looks around] [hesitantly turns her back]
Prez: We fight them! >:(
Roman and Elliot: no, no, not that either-
At some point I'm going to try to do a laoft family tree and I will fail because they just acquire family everywhere and I'm not even mad about that 💖💖💖 honestly everyone in laoft is so valid bc who wouldn't want to be friends with/get adopted by/work for the husband squad
also my fave characters are officially Emmy and Ellie - ik their name is Elliott but their nicknames rhyme!! And they both have animal nicknames also!! And I thought that was a cool coincidence 😁😁
Elliot: i dont understand why our whole friend group is so fixated on me being "the baby" im only like 1-2 years younger than most of you. i guess it kinda makes sense for the legal adults, but its still not that much of a difference
Emmy Trout, 2 years Elliots junior: hi! i've got shitty parents and no friends
Elliot: ...
Remy, taking $5 out of Elliots wallet: never doubt me again.
Elliot, clutching Emmy to their chest and tearing up: shut up.
I, for one, support Roman having a fourteen year old nemesis (affectionate). Keeps a person on their toes.
i imagine if he startles her she still has some [karate chop] reflexes except now that theyre both caught up Roman's like "alright square up" and they wind up Wrassling
Roman: Ellie. hold her arms down im trying to noogie her
Prez: [screeching]
Elliot: im not helping you terrorize my kid Roman
Roman: youre no fun
