[1/6] Siblings. The absolute worst sometimes. [2/6] I've got a couple shifts doing wormhole [3/6] watch - Fri 8p-4a Sat, Sat 12p-8, and [4/6] Sun 8p-8a Mon. Saturday evening/night or Sun [5/6] midday/evening might work best? I'm gonna [6/6] have to stop covering so many weekend shifts.
[1/2] how's Saturday evening sound? [2/2] also...how much have I told you about the Guthrie-Cabot blood feud? because I have the worst feeling I'm gonna be back in the middle of it when I go home for Christmas
[1/6] Is this like Romeo and Juliet's [2/6] families or the Hatfields and the [3/6] McCoys? I've never met anybody [4/6] who has an actual blood feud [5/6] with anybody else. I'm impressed. [6/6] But you haven't told me anything.
[1/5] Uh...so it wasn't Romeo and Juliet until just recently I *think* [2/5] Fairly certain my baby brother is getting engaged to one of the Cabots, or at least he hinted that that was the case (I also came out to him and he's now convinced you're a murderer???? but that's Jay for ya) [3/5] Cabots are mine rich, most of em are bigots, and they've hated us Guthries ever since we started unionizing at the mine [4/5] I've fought so many Cabots I could probably identify most of the ones my age blindfolded just by how they throw a punch [5/5] But if I'm right and Jay IS marrying a Cabot that means I gotta handle her family and mine while I'm down there
[1/] Your kid brother thinks I'm [2/] murderer? HOW?
Two minutes later....
[1/9] I mean, hell yeah unions. My [2/9] biodad was in the electrician's [3/9] union up in Poughkeepsie [4/9] and my biomom was in whatever [5/9] the one that's for nurses is. [6/9] Is her family even like supporting [7/9] her and Jay? If they're the ones [8/9] you think they are? Cause they [9/9] sound like assholes.
[1/6] Jay loves to assume the worst possible outcome for everything I'm involved in, it's been his thing since I went to Muir [2/6] And as such he's decided that you giving me pearls that you found (which I shared as something sweet that I thought was cute) - is obviously a sign that you're a serial killer [3/6] our sister knows better though so it's okay, Paigey'll set him straight for me, he actually listens to her [4/6] Cling, hon, I know exactly four things about Julia. That her first name is Julia. She's engaged to my brother. She likes Broadway. Her family aren't making her a cedar chest. [5/6] safe to assume that her family ain't doin' shit for nothin- so I'm gonna work extra hard while I'm home to make sure she feels welcome with us [6/6] Ain't nothin worse than feelin' like you don't belong with your kin...
