he wasted no time in teaching into the beer crate, pulling out one of the bottles and popping it open allowing him to take a sip.

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

he offered josh a soft smile as he sat on the couch next to him, placing the beers between him before getting comfortable.
“hey.”

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

@tenderlegacies “and you’re mine.”
he responded and shrugged his shoulders.
“I just feel.. horrendous.”

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

he gave elliot a small smile when he appeared in the basement, remaining comfortable on the couch.
“hi.”

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

he’s making his way down to the basement, carrying some beers for him and @candidflaws.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

@tenderlegacies “I believe you. I’ve got you too.” he explained and nodded slowly.
“yes, I think.. soon but, not yet. maybe in a few minutes?”

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

then, I am doing it.
ali and I are officially going to adopt you.

[‘ 𝔃𝐨͟𝐢͟𝐞͟. @IN3PTLIES]

i want you to adopt me.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

hm.
okay, well I look forward to hearing all about it.

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

it’s a long story that i don’t want to get into until i’m at least a few beers deep.
on my way.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

okay..

[𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐬. @shadowsblazed]

uh, sure?
i just have to check in with lennon first.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

I didn’t hear, actually.
I’m hiding in the basement.

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

have you seen this house? it’s huge.
be more specific, please. because, didn’t you hear? i am one of your many housemates for a while.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

but what do you want?
and be honest. I won’t be offended.

[‘ 𝔃𝐨͟𝐢͟𝐞͟. @IN3PTLIES]

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

at the house.

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

[𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐬. @shadowsblazed]

acting like what’s happening isn’t happening.
talk to me. let me help.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

@tenderlegacies “I don’t know. just be with me, that’s enough.. that’s all I want.”
he explained as he reached up to rub his eyes.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

no.
we can have beers.

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

let’s do it.
should we get beers for the occasion or is that a no go?

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

what?

[𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐬. @shadowsblazed]

stop.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

I do.
but I don’t want to force you into it either.

[‘ 𝔃𝐨͟𝐢͟𝐞͟. @IN3PTLIES]

do you?
i don’t want to force you into it.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

let’s avoid everything together 🙂

[𝑒̲𝑙̲𝑙̲𝑖𝑜𝑡. @medicooptimist]

real.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

🫦

[𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐬. @shadowsblazed]

stop that.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

@tenderlegacies “all of this, it’s just reminding me of monica too; it’s bringing everything back and my mind is too busy.”
he shrugged as he went back to hugging his stomach.

[𝒋𝒐͟𝒔͟𝒉 @candidflaws]

okay but..
do you want me to officially adopt you??

[‘ 𝔃𝐨͟𝐢͟𝐞͟. @IN3PTLIES]

it’s all new, but . . i like the idea of you permanently being in my life too.
