grown-up joyce, somewhere in a carefree summer ☀️

life update: crystal’s pregnant again… and they got a puppy 🐶

also, sorry for the spam :)

marshall ended up making a friend — rochelle apergis.

she’s soft in that quietly kind way, and somehow they clicked pretty fast.

she even let him practice tattooing on her, which… yeah, that means more than he’d say out loud

marshall graduated, and the three of them went on a little family trip to tartosa.

while they were there, they threw a small birthday for joyce.

and here she is, by the way:

can’t believe it, but it happened.

one regular workday, a girl walked into the tattoo shop — and after that, marshall’s life changed.

crystal furs took over his thoughts completely, so he decided to stop overthinking and actually do something.

after growing up in an orphanage, marshall realized he didn’t dream of much — just a happy family.

serious relationships weren’t just a big step for him, they felt like a way closer to that dream.

dates, cooking together, staying over, and something a little more intimate —

all of it showed up in his life the moment crystal did.

she feels like the one

On my 18th birthday, the orphanage handed me some keys, a bit of money, and a ‘good luck.’

No space left, they said.

So here I am. Nordhaven. New life, zero safety net.

I’m Marshall Bauer. Nice to meet you.

little family getaway in tartosa ❤️

the labor was long, and by the end crystal was completely exhausted😢

but the second she saw her daughter, she knew it was all worth it

welcome to the family, joyce bauer!
