[ruevealing]

[what a very interesting, entirely non-suspicious question, hunter.]

I believe that is up to the both of you. You have become my son by choice, so it only makes sense that any other family you accept should be by choice as well. Leo is my son officially, but Peter is someone I hope to have as my son one day, and they most certainly are not brothers.

[pyrighteous]

[ SO NON-SUSPICIOUS he is playing it entirely cool right now. So cool.

Anyway he's immediately relieved. ]

Oh! Right! Because Leo and Peter are - uh - dating, right?

[ruevealing]

They are! It must be coming up on nearly a year at this point. They are so darling together, I could not be happier.

[pyrighteous]

A whole year? Really?

[ruevealing]

It must be close! Maybe two or three months off. They are quite committed to one another.

[aka rue has their wedding colors picked out]

[pyrighteous]

[ Reasonable,

Hunter thinks for a moment, chewing on his lip. ]

Do you ... know how they started dating?

[ruevealing]

I do actually.

[It had been Peter's fondest memory from ADI, when he and Leo began dating.]

It began on Valentine's Day - a human holiday centered around romantic relationships - when Peter slipped a note beneath Leo's door, asking him out. Well, naturally as any good story would go, Leo opened the door and caught him right in the act. So Peter had no choice but to ask him out himself. And of course, Leo said yes.

[pyrighteous]

A human holiday ...

[ Another rustle; Hunter might be grabbing a notebook and taking notes. ]

Are human holidays traditional for humans?

[ruevealing]

[thats so precious]

They seem to be! They have quite a few of them through the year.

[pyrighteous]

Wh - when's the next one? Do you know?

[ruevealing]

The next one must be the winter holidays next month, of which there are many different varieties!

[pyrighteous]

Oh. Right, uh - we had those too in the Boiling Isles.

I guess I'll have to figure out which one is the correct one.

[ruevealing]

I had the idea that our celebration could be a mixture of the various holidays, since all of us have different traditions, why not bring them together to make a holiday full of our own family traditions?

[pyrighteous]

... That ... sounds really nice, actually. I've never really gotten to celebrate the Skullstice.

[ruevealing]

[please do not let there be any real skulls involved, it will throw off rue's wintertime aesthetic.]

Excellent! Then we will have to add it to the mix.

[and then more softly,]

Are you feeling better?

[pyrighteous]

[ No promises,

Anyway, Hunter nods behind his relic. ]

Y-yeah. I am. A lot better.

[ruevealing]

I'm glad.

[:>]

I think I must rest my head some, I'm still a touch dizzy from before, but you must come visit me soon. We'll be able to have our first hug as mother and son.

[pyrighteous]

I will! For sure! Just tell me when you're feeling well enough. I'll be there immediately!

[ There's a sleepy, burbly sort of chirp in the background. ]

-- Flapjack will want to meet you too.

[ruevealing]

[oh yes! rue will have to meet a whole new flapjack as well, won't they!]

I would love to! And please, come over anytime. Hugging is very low impact on my injury.

[pyrighteous]

[ Sure will! Similar, yet distinct. ]

All right. Then maybe tomorrow.

[ruevealing]

Tomorrow it is. I'll see you then, dear.

[pyrighteous]

See you then. Um. Mom.

[ And then he has to click off immediately because it's just TOO BIG of a feeling to cope with. ]

[ruevealing]

[rue felt that!!! It's so wonderful.]
