Who: Jack and Bobby Twist
What: Reunion
When: Last Week
Where: Jackson Hole, WY


Bobby Twist hadn't seen his father for nearly fifteen years. The last he knew, his father had been killed. It wasn't a tire blowing up in his face, Bobby knew the truth. It wasn't even because he was homosexual. Bobby knew his grandpappy had had his daddy killed, cause Grandpappy didn't like Daddy. Bobby wasn't a genius, he didn't have to be to figure these things out.

And now, Bobby was about to be reunited with his Daddy. Pa. He called him Pa, mostly. Pa had been dead a long time, and yet, Bobby had spoken to him. After the vortex, and the arrival in this new world. Maybe he was dead too. Weird, then, that Alma and the baby were here too. Bobby wwasn't sure what to think. He didn't want to be dead. he didn't want Alma and Drew to be dead. But they were all there, with his Pa.

Bobby paced in front of the place where the port key was said to be. That was another thing Bobby couldn't wrap his head around. His Pa was coming to Jackson Hole through a port key. Well, Bobby's just wait and see if Pa actually showed up. Maybe the whole thing was a dream, and he'd wake up witht hat eerie feeling he sometimes got.

Jack wasn't sure what he was supposed to do with the old soup can sitting in front of him. He picked it up, to give it a look over...

And suddenly felt like he'd been thrown off the nastiest bull he'd ever rode. After a second of the worst vertigo in his life, he landed on his ass... a few feet away from Bobby. He'd figure out where he was ni a second. For now, he was busy working on emptying the contents of his stomach on the ground next to him.

"Well, if it ain't m'daddy." Bobby kept his distance while Jack wretched the contents on his stomach, though he couldn't help but look over at him. The puking made him wince, but he was too utterly fascinated to see his father there that it didn't bother him too much.

Once he heard his son talk- the similarity in their voice made him smile slightly- Jack was quick to gather himself up, wiping his mouth on the back of his hand and lumbering shakily to his feet.

He took a minute to just look Bobby over for a second, before closing the distance between them an grabbing Bobby into an embrace. He wasn't typically a 'hugging' sort of person, but when it came to his son, he made exceptions.

"Damn, boy, I can't believe it," He stepped back to give him a closer inspection; his own face still had a few remaining cuts and bruises, from Ennis' reaction, but they didn't seem to be hindering his mood at all.

"Y'best believe it, Pa." Bobby clapped his father's back before stepping back, deep blue eyes raking over the man's form. "Y'look just as I 'member." Bobby nodded his approval.

"I still think it ain't possible, but here y'are." Bobby's hand moved up tot ouch Jack's cheek, careful of a particularly nasty bruise. "Looks like some mare got ya, Pa."

He winced reflexively at the touch, but just shrugged it off with a smile. "Since when you ever know'a horse able t'do somethin' like that t'me, kid? S'just a bit'a roughhousin'. Don' worry, he got his," Jack nodded a little at his words, as if reaffirming that for himself, before reaching out to ruffle Bobby's hair, pick at his collar.

"Y'look good, son. Damn good." He was still trying to process it all- his son was here, with a woman and a son. With him. It was taking him a while to get used to the idea.

"So d'you, Pa." Bobby nodded. he moved forward, taking another hug. He wasn't much of a hugging man, either, but he had fifteen years of lost hugs to make up for.

"Y'seen Drew, then? He's got a lot a'your personality in 'im. 'Course he's got a lot a' his papaw in 'im too. Real spit fire, he is."

"Yeah, he an' Alma gave Ennis an' me a right scare, fallin' outta the sky an' into our barn. But they's alright. Drew's a damn smart kid. Y'done good, son. He's amazin'," He took the extra hug without protest, with a deep breath to steady himself.

"So, we gon' stand in the cold and hug all day, or d'ya want that drink I promised ya?"

"I reckon I;d like t'have that drink, Pa." Bobby stuffed his hands in his pockets. "There's a place just up th'road if'n y'don't mind the walk."

Jack gave Bobby's shoulder a joking punch, accompanied with a hard look, even if his smirk gave him away. "I ain' that old, y'brat. Lead the way,"

"Yeah yeah." Bobby shook his head. "So weird, Pa. Never thought I'd see y'like this. 'S nice."

"Like I said, I never believe you'd live t'graduate high school, s'it's mutual," He was keeping his tone light, not wanting to drag down the moment with his thoughts. Jack followed along quietly after that, glancing around the town on their way to the bar.

"Right-o, Pa. Like Grandpappy would'a stood for that." Bobby rolled his eyes. Not that he wanted to bring his grandfather into a conversation, but he'd said it and it was done. Bobby was the only thing Grandpappy ever gave jack credit for, and most days he denied even that.

"No matter. I did it, Pa. Graduated top a'm'class anyhow."

Jack rolled his eyes, kicking at a rock on the ground at the mention of his father. "Y'old enough now t'hear it, son. I don't give two shits what that man ev'r said 'bout me. 'Bastard'us too busy bein' a has-been t'bother bein' a father. He don't deserve y'thought, now he ain't around. Let the man die."

At the talk of him graduating at the top of his class, Jack switched gears, smiling. "S'good, son. Glad y'got more outta 'at'an I did. Whatchya doin' now?"

"Ranchin', mostly. Done some rodeo work." Bobby tensed and released his fist. "Din't want t' go inta the business with m'other grandpappy. Ma won't too happy, neither. But that ain't th'kinda life I want."

"Y'seem like y'done good by y'self, Bobby. S'all that matters," Adjusting his hat on his head, Jack reached for the door to let them into the bar, ushering his son inside first.

Jack nodded a little at that, glancing around the room before leading them over to a table, figuring it'd be better for them talking one-on-one.

"I know y'know I'd'a been there, f'I could, son. But I'm damn glad y'turned out so good, even if I weren't there t'watch'ya."

"I ain't never doubted that, Pa." Bobby did have his doubts. he had few really good memories of his dad. His two grandfathers had colored his memories of the man over the years. Mostly, he remembered that his Pa was gone a lot of the time.

He saw the downward tilt of Bobby's mouth, the glance to the side, all signs he had been trying to lie. It got a frown out of Jack as he put in his drink order, but he didn't say anything about it. He didn't have room to talk- he knew, if Bobby's mother and grandfathers were the source of so many of his memories, he probably wasn't the father he'd hoped he'd be remembered as. All he could do was make up for it, now.

Bobby leaned in next to his father, and gave his order. Settling back, he scrubbed a hand over his face. "Truth is, pa, I don' know wha' t'think most th'time. I 'member when y'took me fishin'." His right hand caressed the scar on his left. "But not much else, 'sides."

Jack nodded again, glancing down at the table before back up to look Bobby in the eye. "I know, son. I ain't exactly proud'a not bein' there for'ya. An' I ain't gonna go on like I think givin' ya excuses s'gon' make it better. But I want y't'know, I was doin' what I had t'do, t'keep us all inna decent life. An' m'glad y'seem t'be better off, not havin' to do th'run around t'get by."

"'S'all right, Pa. Really." Bobby smiled a little smile. He accepted his drink with a nod, and used it as a distraction, sipping to test the taste.

Taking his own drink in hand, he let the pair of them fall into a companionable silence, Jack losing himself in his own thoughts; all the things he'd missed. The birth of his grandson. Watchin' Bobby get to be a father. And all just because his goddamn father couldn't leave well enough alone.

Bobby was also lost in his own thoughts, trying to separate what he remembered from what he'd been fed the last fifteen years or more. Neither of his grandfathers liked his dad, for whatever reason. Even his mother had little good to say about Jack. Bobby had, effectively, grown up without a father. He knew a lot of his anger stemmed from that fact, from the feeling of abandonment, and the only reason he didn't outright blame his dad, was because his grandfathers tried to force that on him, and he rebelled against them.

"S'ain't right, son." Jack mumbled out, taking another drink and leaning back on his chair. "'Don't even know where t'start on 'ow 'is ain't right." He could feel the tension, but wasn't sure how to begin to talk about it. If they even should talk about it. This was suddenly seeming like an awful idea.
