Oliver's sisters are growing concerned and they can fly so I would really let him go if I were you.

WHO: Nana Qaradaghi and Everett Walker yet again, we're SORRY.
WHERE: The Walker-Qaradaghi house.
WHEN: Evening of Thursday, 10 May 2018.
WHAT: The thrilling conclusion to our tale. A fight, a confession, and a cobbling together of... something. Anyway, you can't say that they're just two bros being pals anymore, that's for sure.
WARNINGS: Language, implications of sex, but otherwise just... gross. So gross. Gross.

( How could this have happened? )

[Email]

To: Joelle Williamson (Nana's Assistant)
From: Colby Harris (Everett's Assistant)

Subject: Heads up

Body:

Hey Joelle,
Everett asked me to get ahold of you to let Miss Qaradaghi know that he's going to be working late tonight. We found something weird on the street today he's checking out.


Drinks later?

Who: Everett Walker with a guest appearance by Carter’s robot
When: Wednesday, May 9, morning
Where: Townsend’s Tea
What: Everett unwittingly steals a robot
Warnings: Nah

( A mechanical dog? )

WHO: Nana Qaradaghi and Everett Walker, again.
WHERE: The Walker-Qaradaghi home.
WHEN: Mid-morning of Sunday, 6 May 2018.
WHAT: Right, about fifteen years ago. Apparently, a combination of pretending that things that happened in your twenties are still relevant in your thirties when it comes to inter-personal relationships, fifteen years' worth of pretending that you're Not Feeling Anything At All, and the aftermath of a traumatic event makes for a tinder fire of a personal encounter.
WARNINGS: R for what could very well be construed as graphic foreplay, frequent references to an erection, implied nudity, and general post-coitus chicanery. What we're trying to say is ya girl touched a pipis.

( It is remarkable, how bold survival makes you. )

WHO: Nana Qaradaghi and Everett Walker
WHERE: Vigil Memorial Hospital
WHEN: Morning of Sunday, 22 April 2018
WHAT: Being freed from a tree means you get a dramatic series of… confessions? Apologies? Soliloquies? Whatever, Everett and Nana make up dramatically, because these are the most EXTRA ASSHOLES you could ever meet. Seriously, they can’t even use a chair correctly.
WARNINGS: Language and some vague references to war. But, more importantly, are you someone who suffers from extreme second-hand embarrassment? Because if you do, DON’T READ THIS. If you love second-hand embarrassment, however, please come right on in and grab yourself a seat.

( I thought I was going to lose you. First one way… and then another. )

WHO: Nana Qaradaghi and Everett Walker
WHERE: Vigil, Montana
WHEN: Over the course of the past few weeks in April 2018.
WHAT: Guess what, guys: not talking about your feelings gets you into BIG TROUBLE.
