Prompt 1: Family
Muse: Rube Fandom: Dead Like Me via utr Writer: Crystal
It was strange for Rube. Getting to be a dad again. George never let him really act like a dad. He'd lost Rose a long time ago and when he did he gave up ever really being a dad again. Now he had Angela.
He'd never had a teenage daughter. He'd dealt with reaper after reaper, those who were newly dead and grieved loved ones, but a teenager... that was difficult. And this feeling of being completely responsible for someone else? This wasn't something he was really ready to deal with, but it wasn't something you were generally given a choice about.
The first time she called him dad... well the first time he was panicking too much that she was hurt, but when he really realized it... he was so happy. He didn't remember being so happy since the last time he sang to his little girl.
He loved being a dad again. Angela was the amazing. She was intelligent and creative and such a handful that he didn't know what to do with himself most of the time. He loved every minute of it
