Re: Robert/Mike
"Oh I'm sure she'll have a complete reading list with all the important chapters if I ask her. I think it's just best to go along with whatever she's got planned - much safer that way." Savannah could play happy family with everyone here and try to make things normal as much as she liked. With so little that was normal, even about their regular lives Mike couldn't exactly begrudge her for trying.
"Just trying to live up to your shining example." He smirked. "Well as nice as a pen might have been, I have to say I think I prefer this. At least this is bound to get a lot more use out of it." He chuckled - and pens, well he'd gotten plenty of those over the years.
Mike snorted when Robert leaned in closer. "See now that right there makes this the best gift I've ever received." He grinned nudging Robert's shoulder with his own. "I should have known you'd have found the perfect gift."
