[For a guy who protests emotions so often, you'd think he'd be less willing to just bring them up some ding dang times. Even as Angus can't see it, for a moment Taako just holds him close, doesn't say a word. It's what he always wanted, when he still believed in adults, when he still believed in parents. He knows what it means. They just don't need to say it.]

Yeah, yeah, I'll keep your opinions on making a grown man crap his pants on file.

[Angus is never going back there, he's decided. He simply isn't. The boy has so much less time than Taako does, and that means there's no point where he'll go unprotected. He'll get to spend his days exactly how he wants them.

If he can't get the chance, Angus certainly deserves it.]

C'mon, I need to get all the boysnot out of my shirt courtesy of your big ol' honker, huh?
