	I would give you orders to make something that tastes like a tart with beets and honey and cheese. [He shrugs helplessly.] The process by which that happens is a mystery to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Aw sweetie. ] Still going to ask you to taste test, you know. That's half the fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-01-28 01:22 am UTC (link)
	That's something that I would be happy to do. You do so many kind things, Chuck. If--and I mean this entirely theoretically--someone wanted to thank you for that with more than words, what would you advise that they do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Are you propositioning her. ] You remember that we're both married, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-05 04:34 am UTC (link)
	[It takes him a little too long to puzzle out what she's getting at. Once he does, he is appropriately embarrassed.] I worded that very poorly and shouldn't try again until I have had at least three more cups of coffee. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-05 11:58 am UTC (link)
	[ She snorts, amused. ] You don't have to do anything, Pavel. I'm just happy I can make people feel good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-08 05:46 am UTC (link)
	You do that well. Sometimes I don't understand how you are the way you are after being trapped here for so long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-08 11:01 am UTC (link)
	Maybe it's because I don't really look at it as being trapped. I didn't really leave my house until I was 28, at least here I can go outside. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-09 06:43 am UTC (link)
	There is considerably more outside here than there would be in a house. [A nod as if he has just done more than state the incredibly obvious.] Do you miss your home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-09 08:49 am UTC (link)
	[ She looks at him as if she doesn't quite understand the question. ] This is my home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-11 02:28 am UTC (link)
	[He looks at her as if he doesn't quite understand the answer.] You...? No, that's good--it's best to think of this as home, of course. After so long, how can it not be home? [No, tell him. He wants to know how it can not be home because then maybe he'll figure out how to make it home.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-11 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	I got married here. I adopted all my kids here. I've lived here for over half of my adult life. [ That's really enough isn't it? ] I've been more alive here than I ever was at home. This place... it's not easy, but I love it all the same. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-12 04:06 am UTC (link)
	And... with all of that, you feel that this is where you're meant to be? You never feel as though you're being kept from the world where you belong? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-12 08:53 am UTC (link)
	Pavel... I died back home. I don't think I was supposed to still be there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-14 02:13 am UTC (link)
	[Well, that. That is something that he should have learned in twenty years. Talk about embarrassing missteps.] I'm very sorry. Very, very. I'm glad that you have here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-14 10:37 am UTC (link)
	[ She should probably clarify that she got better but. Yeah. ] Me too. [ She nudges him. ] And don't be sorry. You're not the one who suffocated me on a cruise ship and dumped me in the ocean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-15 05:37 am UTC (link)
	[Obviously, but still!] I... [am horrified?] No, that's true. This is a much better home for you, clearly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-15 09:11 am UTC (link)
	[ Oh boy she has a lot of 'splainin' to do when they're back in their own time. ] Hey, what about you? You're not doing too bad for yourself either, last I checked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-02-25 03:54 am UTC (link)
	[He will track her down, both for explanations and for baked goods.] Yes, I'm doing very well. Happily married, and I have good friends like you. [There isn't a lot of conviction there.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-02-26 01:58 pm UTC (link)
	We really don't have a lot to complain about, do we? [ Except a few things but she's let go of that particular heartbreak some time ago. Also, don't think she isn't hearing that lack of conviction, countering it with a quirked brow. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-03-07 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	Nothing at all. [He frowns at that expression of hers.] What? I'm not complaining, this is fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-03-08 10:41 am UTC (link)
	Fine isn't the same thing as good, Pavel. [ C'mon, tell mama your troubles. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-03-09 12:25 am UTC (link)
	[If she insists. It just seems so petty to regret all of this when he has every reason to be happy.] I was going to be a starship captain by thirty, then an admiral by forty. That was my plan. That was everything that I wanted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2017-03-09 05:19 am UTC (link)
	[ She nods. Can relate to this, sort of. ] I wanted to see the world. Have kids - not that I don't love you guys but it's not the same as having a baby. I think it's okay to be upset about the things we didn't get to do. It doesn't have to take away from the good things we do have here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2017-03-11 11:10 pm UTC (link)
	You would have been a good mother. [He gives her a quick hug because hugging is just a thing he does with people he likes. Are they handling hot beverages? He'll be careful.] Which would be necessary since Ton would be a questionable father. [He's joking! Half joking.] You're right, of course. There are things here that would have been unattainable at home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
