you've always judged me.

and i don't baby him, i protect him.

[𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓 @F0RG0TTENSON]

I’m not judging….

completely.

All I said was you shouldn’t baby Norman so much. He needs to get out there and have a life, you know.

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

i want you around dylan, i just don't want to feel judged by my own son in my own house .

[𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓 @F0RG0TTENSON]

Sure. Is that why you never want me around?

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

i'm your mother.

[𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓 @F0RG0TTENSON]

Huh. That’s news to me, Norma.

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

yes i was worried. you're my son too, dylan.

[𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓 @F0RG0TTENSON]

Worried. About me?

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

no one has heard from you. i was worried

[𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓 @F0RG0TTENSON]

Busy with the business she does not really approve of…

Why?

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

where is @F0RG0TTENSON ?

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

it's difficult for him, to share her when it had been just the two of them for so long.

" romero is my friend. and we need that in this town, norman. he can help us. he can protect us. "

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

eyes peek over the rim of her coffee cup as she takes a sip, watching as norman pulls a thread from his shirt. norma doesn't say anything this time, she'll just fix it later.

" what are you implying norman? " she asks. she knows —

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

Of course she was able to sense the jealously right away. She knew him well enough. It had been touchy for him lately, not that he noticed her spending more time with the sheriff.

He knew deep down he should be happy for her. It had been extremely difficult for them to ~

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

not everyone wants to either

I feel the same about my own life . Not everyone can understand that , . .

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

i'm sure he's fine. you haven't talked to him?

hm, alright. i'll take care of the room today, then

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

No, now that you mentioned it, I haven’t seen Dylan in a while.

It was but…guess something came up.

i slept like a baby! of course you didn't, i thought it was your brother.

little late for a checkout, no?

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

Did you sleep well last night?

I hope I didn’t wake you when I came up from the office.

Last minute check out.

her tongue and an eye roll.

" he's helping me with something for the motel, it's not a big deal. "

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

norma could see the tension in his shoulders at the mention of romero. he'd been a touchy subject for norman lately now that norma seemed to be getting closer to the sheriff.

" oh, norman, dont do that. "

she says with a click of —

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

“I know, mother. I promise, I’ll rest.”

He’s to be as reassuring as possible, just so he wouldn’t worry her. He’d been spending more time in the basement than upstairs with actual human contact. Maybe it was a little concerning at this point.

He leaned into her ~

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

good morning my darling boy

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

Good morning to mother…and mother ONLY.

and a hand smooths along his shoulder before her coffee cup is cradled in both hands.

" i have to pick up some new bed sheets for the motel and then im going by the station to meet with romero. "

[‍ ‍‍„ 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 ‍ᴰ͟ᴱ͟ᴬ͟ᴿ͟ᴱ͟ᔆ͟ᵀ .ᐟ ‍ ‍‍ @motelkeeps]

she gets it, seclusion was comforting, though she began to grow concerned about just how much solitude norman was getting.

" alright, just don't stay down there all night. you need to sleep. "

a kiss is pressed to the top of his head —

[𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 @THE_G00D_SON]

( sitting down at the kitchen table, sighing softly. )

I know…I just lost track of time. It’s nice down there, you know?

It’s quiet.

( he doesn’t elaborate what it means, but it’s a nice solitude. she would probably figure that out easily. )

I’m okay, I can handle ~
