75 Godiva, Sunday morning
Oct. 2nd, 2016 11:58 amIf Parker had been any less than 100% enthusiastic about having Archie around, Eliot would have happily let him spend the whole weekend getting room service at the Arms.
But Archie was, however grudgingly, family. Which meant he got an invite to the small family brunch Eliot planned for Nana. And -- well, honestly, the old guy was pretty fun, once you got past the whole "could have been so much better for Parker growing up" thing. He had some amazing stories about his days at the top of his game. Eliot's favorite was the one about thwarting Nate the one time IYS sicced him on him.
And, well. Eliot wouldn't trade getting to see both his partners happily interacting with their family for the world.
[for the team and guests, and likely a lot of slowplay]
