Who: Sean and Margaret
Where: The food court
What: some splaining
When: Backdated to Margarets arrival on the 26th
Rating: TBD likely low
Open: Not without a REALLY good reason
Status: Ongoing
Sean was really happy that his sister had shown up. He missed her and their brother terribly, though he'd managed to hide it. He did wonder what their parents would think, more specifically Steve. And he wondered what she would think of her confirmed bachelor brother actually being engaged. Either way, it was going to be a fun conversation.

Since it was Maggie he didn't bother to get dressed up. He just wore his usual jeans and a t-shirt as he made his way to the food court. For some reason Maggie arriving there amused him and he wasn't quite sure why. As soon as he stepped into the food court, he grinned.

"I don't blame him." Margaret said quietly, thinking of the love that she lost. And now she was a constant reminder of that kind of upcoming loss to her own father. "That must get weird, babysitting kids that we knew as adults." Or that had passed away before they were even born, but she didn't want to voice that thought out loud. "I'll have to meet grown Tim and his spouse. They sound great."

"Three Buckys? I guess this station loves Buckys and Steves as much as the island did." Margaret paused. "Sarah? Oh, Mouse, right. And Stevie. Do you spend much time with them? Or do you stick to the siblings on Mom's side?"

"It's a little strange, but they're fun. Especially little Tim. He likes to help out. And mom is expecting 4 more right now." Four that weren't part of their timeline. It was interesting.

"I don't babysit them because Sarah tends to do that most of the time. And if she doesn't, Stevie does. I have talked to her a bit, but I kind of leave Stevie to do his own thing." He scratched the back of his neck. "He and Mary Ellen have a family. Sammy and then one on the way." He chuckled. "I think our parents are trying to compete with the Sullys."

"Four? As in four?" Margaret had to chuckle. "That is a heck of a difference from our timeline."

That made her chuckle even more. "We were never a small family, especially if you include all of Mom's family and extended family over the years. I might need name tags to remember all the people I'm related to here." She smirked. "Maybe I should hit on a Sully, get our families to team up and then no other families could ever measure up."

	"Quadruplets, yes." He laughed. Sean shook his head at her next statement. "I'm pretty sure that happened at some point before we came along. Besides, there aren't that many available to hit on. Unless you're interested in women." He chuckled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Wow. I'll be a big sister to four people that didn't exist in our timeline. That's..That's wow." Margaret smiled. "I'll have to get in touch with mom."

"Nope. It's too bad. I'd have more options if I was." Margaret replied. "Ron's been gone a long enough time now that.." She did the math in her head. "32 and you've been gone three years? You might not have even met Ron."

	"You really should. You can actually meet Papa Clint." He smiled. He'd always been referred to as that. "I'll be 33 this next birthday, and I don't remember a Ron, no." He shook his head. Then he decided to just throw it out there in a sneaky way. "Who knows, you could meet somebody at my wedding." He smirked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I can?" Margaret was surprised. She thought she'd be a reminder to the man that one of his wives would eventually sleep with someone outside their marriage. It would be after Client had passed, but still it felt awkward. "He's okay with us existing?"

She was about to tell him all about Ron, when her brother dropped his bombshell. "Wedding? You?" That didn't sound as supportive and sisterly as she'd like. "I was not expecting that. Congratulations! Who's the lucky someone? Or someones?"

	Sean looked a little confused at first. "He knows he's not going to live forever. He's pretty cool." He nodded. He chuckled at her reaction to his news. "I know. Permanent bachelor me getting married is pretty weird." He laughed softly. "His name is Bobby and I can't wait for you to meet him. He's amazing and wonderful and he loves me for me."

	"There's knowing. And then there's meeting your spouse's future children that she had with someone outside your marriage." Margaret commented. "He must be cool." "Oh, good. So I don't need to be the threatening sister and tell him to treat you right." She said with a chuckle. "So, tell me about him. What's he like? How long have you been a couple?"

"You're making it sound like she cheated on him." He made a face, then shook his head. "He's cool. I promise."

He took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "See, that's the weird part. We've technically been together for nearly three years but he disappeared from the island and was gone for about two of them. But when he came here to the station it's like he was never gone."

"No, just that it'd be hard for him to think about her life without him. Without the family they created in this time. Almost everyone she knew gone." Margaret explained. "That kind of big change isn't easy for most people, even when they've lived with island..station craziness."

"Sounds like a good weird part. You two were able to pick up right where you left off." Margaret paused and then had a realization. "Oh, hey, if things happened during those two years, you can't feel guilty. Two years is a long time to go without intimacy, physical or emotional."

"Maggie, dad's the only one that has had any kind of a problem with me being around and it's not really a problem so much as just awkwardness. Nobody else really thinks about that." He shook his head.

"I honestly didn't even think about doing anything with anybody in those two years. I've never felt about anybody the way I feel about Bobby." He ran his fingers through his hair. "I'm just really glad that he came back."

	Margaret couldn't help thinking about it at the moment. This was still all so new to her. She was certain the feeling would pass quickly. They always did find ways to adapt. "That's incredible." Margaret smiled. Bobby had to be a heck of a guy to have captured her brother's heart like that. "I'm happy for you. Both of you. I have to meet him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh you're definitely meeting him." Sean nodded. "He's a little campy but it's part of his charm." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Campy's good around here. Anything to keep spirits up when life gets crazy." Margaret commented. (Reply to this) (Parent)
