Roswell AU where things calm down after 3x17 and Max keeps Zan!! and the gang stays in Roswell and everyone helps take care of him!!
Max loves his baby boy so much… the smile on his face when Zan does anything…
Aunt Isabel… number one aunt. Treats Zan like a fucking prince. Baby-proofs her whole apartment so that Zan can hang out there. “We still live here! He can’t even walk, he’s not going to get into the cabinets!” says Jesse. Isabel doesn’t care.
Liz is very good with him!! He spends a lot of his time at the Crashdown wearing Liz’s antenna headband and the patrons all adore him!! Also she tells him very good bedtime stories!!
Zan really likes when Maria sings!! She writes him little lullabies 🥺🥺🥺
Michael and Kyle both do this thing where they talk to Zan as if he’s just a small adult and they both make casual conversation with him as if his baby noises are real words. The others think it’s ridiculous but it’s also fucking adorable to listen to.
Kyle especially does this thing where if he’s trying to say something and gets shut down/no one listens to him, he slams his hands down on the table and says “fuck you guys, i’m gonna go hang out with Zan!”
It depends on who’s currently holding Zan but he usually gets away with it
Max is usually like “yeah sure. tell my baby about buddhism. go buckwild” and hands him over
Aunt Isabel says “absolutely not, do not swear in front of the baby!”
Liz and Maria think the way Kyle talks to Zan is fucking adorable and hand the kid right over
Michael says “okay, but I have to be part of the conversation too” and they usually like take a walk through downtown and talk to Zan about like buddhism or football or whatever
I am thinkin… about Kyle and his dad sitting on the couch watching football with Zan right in between them because it’s Kyle’s babysitting shift but the game is on. Kyle explains the rules very nicely and Zan seems to have a good time.
Isabel makes Michael baby-proof his apartment. Michael thinks this is fucking stupid but does it anyway cause he’s soft as fuck for Zan.
At one point, Liz is like “his name can’t just be Zan. You know I love that little boy but Zan No Middle Name Evans is kind of a weird turn for the family that produced Isabel Amanda and Max Christopher, two of the most white-bread names I have ever heard.”
“Your name is literally Elizabeth Parker, shut the fuck up!” says Maria, and Michael loses his shit.
It’s Kyle who eventually says “Well, can’t Zan be short for Alexander?” and they’re all like holy shit. go off Kyle. fuck. guess his name is Alexander.
And so his name is Alexander Charles Evans!!! it’s very important to me that his name is Alexander Charles Evans!!!
I think it would be fucking hilarious to see Kyle and Michael try and take care of Zan by themselves because everyone else is working or busy.
this little boy just grows up so loved!!
