UNSTEADY

There’s also stubbornness, quick-witted, and grease-stained that screams Gallagher. I’m highly trained in the art of improvisation. It’s a key for survival. 

I never get compliments like you give since you’ve been gone, Georgiana. My dad says those things and some how he makes it sound like a bad thing.

I’ve read plenty of apocalypse doomsday stories to know an earthquake’s probably just the beginning. Next, it could be floods and locusts.

Ah, I’ve got a nerd on my hands. Let’s try and survive through this earthquake before we think about floods and locusts, unless those floods and locusts are accompanied by Brendan Fraser’s Rick O’Connell, then I’m fine with that.

That’s the first lesson I should’ve learned when I moved here. We’re living in a place where we somehow angered the gods that be.

It’s got its ups and downs, I don’t think it’s ‘angered the gods’ level at least. Though if I were a believer, it’d seem that way.

That’s the spirit. If only we stock piled a pair of shovels.

There’s nothing that screams Gallagher if not spirit. I’m sure we can makeshift something, all we need is our imagination.

I have to say that this is a definite first for me. 

I think it comes to say that you should really be prepared for anything here in St. Cascadia.

Basic instinct and the judgy look in your gorgeous eyes.

I think my brother Damien would get a kick out of that. It’d be the first time I’ll ever hear him laugh.

I don’t judge just you Cabello’s. I’m a judgy person sometimes, but I will at least take that compliment.

How I popped out two kids and have a grandson of my own, I will never venture to guess.

I offered to step in and take up the mantle myself had it not been Drake’s wish for Oliver to lead the charge. You’re right, though, they both do need a vacation.

I can’t guess either, you don’t look a day over thirty.

You and Sid are always willing to keep me young. I have my children back home where they belong, Drake’s on the mend, and the faction starts a new chapter.

You kidding? You’re like a fountain of youth, you keep yourself young. 

Ever get tired of basking in our glorious glow?

I’m considering setting up a complaint box.

How’d you guess.

Well, I suppose it’s out now.

In true Cabello fashion nonetheless.

I’d like a second to appreciate how everything is right in the world before I’m reminded it isn’t.

You ain’t getting any shame from me, Mama V. Hopefully you hold onto this feeling for a bit yet.

Should I expect the welcome party?

Not right now, but once you step foot out the door, that’s a different story. Everyone’s going to swoop in like buzzards. I can sabotage the prep if you want?

Hi— sorry. Do you mind if I ask you for directions?

Sure– we don’t get a lot of lost Bambi’s around here.

What would I do without this city’s best drinking partner? Crash and burn, baby.

I could go for a nice stiff drink to ease the woes as long as you’re paying. Which there’s a lot to unpack, but I won’t get too much into it.

I’m glad you realize that.

I’m funny always, you just need a reminder every so often. Scandalous, I know, but I haven’t found a new drinking partner that rocks my world like you.

Capiche. Cross my heart and hope to die.

I rock everyone’s world, Wyatt-- you’re not gonna find anyone like me.

What a shame for you I can’t stop breathing altogether. Hey, I’m still drinking and eating myself dumb, though, it’s basically an insult to myself that I am even without my two favorite hobbies.

I don’t think it’s too bad-- you’re funny occasionally. You’ve been drinking yourself dumb without me? How could you?
