CARTER & ROBBIE
since Kelly wasn't here, he knew he needed to do his best to make sure that Robbie was sorted out

Robbie was here. Robbie was here and he didn't remember and he didn't trust Carter and Kelly wasn't here and Carter didn't know why. He would have given anything to have his brother here, too, but since Kelly wasn't here, he knew he needed to do his best to make sure that Robbie was sorted out and settled in. Especially when Mark didn't know him and Gordo..well, Carter didn't know how much Gordo knew sometimes, just that he was from earlier than Carter was. And earlier than this Robbie, he supposed.

Carter still wasn't at a hundred percent, but he was moving better. There was a bald patch just under where his hair flipped over and he was debating shaving it all to let everything grow out, but it had been kind of nice, having it long again. But maybe that was something to do soon. It didn't take him long to get over to Pickman, parking in one of the spots on the street before making his way up the steps, a coffee and bag from home in hand.

Robbie might not remember him very well, but Carter remembered Robbie. And he remembered some of the foods and things he liked. If nothing else, coffee and some lunch might be a way to break the ice. Maybe. He hoped.

Finding room 157, he knocked, then stepped back as he waited.

It would be hard, but if Mark and Gordo and Carter all said this place had positives about it - that it could be good here, that he could make a life here and belong? Well. Either Robbie had lost his mind entirely or they were telling the truth. Maybe it was both.

"We can always come back tomorrow, yeah." He agreed, thinking maybe he'd have to write a list of things he'd need over the next few days until he was set up. Days, man. Robbie huffed to himself, still struggling to believe he'd be here still, for who knows how long.

"Okay, man. I... hear you. We'll be good." He placed a hand on Carter's shoulder, giving it a light squeeze before he went back to browsing the clothes.

"It doesn't have to be tomorrow, either. You can take as much time as you need." Carter picked up a flannel for himself, then a couple of silly sweatshirts in his and Luke's sizes.

He smiled as Robbie squeezed his shoulder, and a little tension drained out of his shoulders. Yeah. Yeah, things would be good eventually. They just had to give it a little time. "And if you need anything while you're here, you just let me know. I'm gonna show you how to get to my house at least, and see if we can get you familiar with some of the other scents."
