What's this one? It wasn't here last night.

{Eva looked at Carl, assuming it was from him.}

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto -- choose from. Leo had a good amount of things between what Carl and Eva had gotten him, and gifts from Carl's parents.

@IntrepidGusto @BelovedRoot We got you more than just breakfast, you know. {Eva kissed @IntrepidGusto's cheek. She wasn't about to let a Father's Day go by without --

@IntrepidGusto -- {Eva knew she was lucky to have @IntrepidGusto. Most other guys probably would have left their girlfriends, and there was no way she'd --

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto Well, you deserve the best. I can't believe how lucky I am. Not a lot of guys would have done what you've done for @BelovedRoot and me. --

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto -- kiss before pulling @BelovedRoot into her arms so he doesn't climb all over @IntrepidGusto while he tries to eat.}

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto Of course I will. {She sets @IntrepidGusto's tray on his lap before getting into bed with him and @BelovedRoot. She gives them both a --

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto -- setting his tray of food on his lap.} Happy Father's Day, Carl.

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto -- of course. She sets @BelovedRoot down on the bed next to his daddy, and waits for @IntrepidGusto to wake up a little more before --

@IntrepidGusto @BelovedRoot -- that everyone else doesn't use.

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto @BelovedRoot I know we do. But everything seems so... /common/. Root worked so well for Leo. I want something special for this baby, too. Something --

[Eva Stoermer @AstuteIntellect]

@IntrepidGusto @BelovedRoot -- Mother's Day for me because I couldn't be happier to be @BelovedRoot's mum. And, getting ready to be a mum /again/. {She rests a hand --
