theo being SO excited to take boris to reunite with popchyk after all those years apart VS boris refusing to let theo take him to a second location lest he beat the shit out of him and/or kill him over the secondhand (now thirdhand) stolen painting that theo was still under the impression had been locked in a high security storage facility for a decade
Redid the my last post bc my art was so bad frfr but this is kinda better ig
and another version for no reason
“Happily, Boris never seemed annoyed or even startled when I woke him, as if he came from a world where there was nothing so unusual in a nocturnal howl of pain. Sometimes he’d gather up Popchik- snoring at the foot of our bed- and deposit him in a limp sleepy heap on my chest. And weighed down like that- the warmth of both of them around me- I lay counting to myself in Spanish or trying to remembered all the worlds I knew in Russian (swear words, mostly) until I went back to sleep.”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch, page 313
imagine— Theo has bought back all the fake furniture & the painting is back in the museum. he’s even broken up with Kitsey! things are somehow still cool between him & Mrs. Barbour. & he & Hobie are closer than ever. things are still kinda weird with Pippa, but so it goes. oh & Popchyk is doing alright! though he never got totally used to the hustle & bustle of New York, & he forever misses his other dad.
whenever Boris facetimes Theo (Boris insists, so he can see his baby!), Popchyk freaks out with joy just to hear his voice! Theo rolls his eyes, but it’s nice to see the little old dog so animated.
“He misses his Papa!” Boris whines. “Too much food & no play with you! He is fat &—“
“Come here then. Visit him & prove what a great dad you are, you deadbeat.”
“Am not deadbeat!” Boris cries. “Am very much alive &—“
Theo hangs up.
Boris texts: ?????!!!! 🐶💔😭TELL POPCHYK THAT WAS YOU!! HIS PAPA LOVES HIM!!!!!! TELL HIM I COME SOON.
& much to Theo’s surprise, he does.
sooo then Boris convinces Theo to get a place with him in upstate NY “for Popchyk” because it will be quieter & nicer there for him, & doesn’t he deserve that at the end of his life?
Theo ends up agreeing to all Boris’ plans, supposedly all for Popchyk’s benefit, but alsooo how could he resist basically being Boris’ husband & moving to a beautiful house in a quiet, quaint neighborhood? it’s everything he can’t admit he wants, but he can have now, thanks to Popchyk!
Is it too early for Christmas content?
a little wip for you guys 😁😁
Me in my mind to every small, white fluffy dog I see: oh my god look a Popchik
sort of inspired by a post on here that said boris and theo took eachothers hearts (popchyk being boris' and the goldfinch being theos) when theo left vegas
