i talk like this to my dad too

• hayley is very competitive, even at such a young age, and though she knows amelia has trained longer than her, will always try to best her in mentor. as much as she complains about running, she runs laps around her school’s track in order to gain an upper hand on amelia when they go for morning runs. she figures youth might be on her side enough that it’s the one area she can improve on enough to race her and win. ( she hasn’t yet… )• one place she does have some knowledge in is cooking. having to look after yourself with parents like hers, she had to contribute somehow and that was the only place she could. granted, her form of cooking is usually grilled cheese and quesadillas, but she knows how to follow a recipe to completion. sometimes, when she knows amelia is going to be gone for a bit or on one of many missions, she’ll distract herself by cooking something for her to come home to.• despite her upbringing, hayley loves holidays and will do her best to make each one memorable. it was once only for herself, but now that she has amelia and doc, it’s for them too. she’ll dress doc up for each and every holiday ( she made a cute tie for him on boss’ appreciation day and dressed him in a green top hat for st. patrick’s day ) and decorates the apartment on the major ones. on mother’s day, she forced amelia to stay in bed the entire day and treated her to a pancake breakfast and pedicures for both her and doc.• amelia had to watch over a drunk hayley once and only once ( so far ) after the young girl spent time with friends from school and returned home inebriated. she tried to play it off, but amelia could tell before the girl stepped foot into the apartment. rather than chastising her, she threatened to leave and kill her “friends” for even putting her in that position. if not for hayley crying and puking, she might have at least found them to give a piece of her mind. instead, that was saved for hayley the following morning, when she woke up with a bad hangover and drill sergeant amelia ready to kick her ass in training.• amelia is her parent for all intents and purpose. when hayley has pta meetings, she’ll ask amelia if she’ll come. parent/teacher conferences, school performances, and even horrible pot luck nights at the school are all things she’ll ask of amelia, but it took some time before she felt comfortable doing so. not because she doesn’t think of amelia as her mom, but because she wasn’t sure in the beginning if it was something she’d even entertain. so when she first asked, and amelia said yes without blinking an eye, hayley knew that it wasn’t bothersome to ask it from her.

At times facing reality can get really difficult, pushing you to the point of hating it and sometimes to ignore it. But Theodore was a grown man, and he had built many walls around his feelings to prevent himself and his demons to really get to the part of him that was hurting. He had learned to only worry about trivial things, and to drop responsibilities when they started getting out of hand. It wasn’t the BEST defense mechanism of all, but it worked for him. The thug had to meet with an important supplier of his boss’ in about five hours, and all he could think about was how cute the baby he was holding was. 

LET ME TALK ABOUT YOU MEME
