*nodnod* Filly sent me that, and it just... hurt, because it really was so perfect.

It doesn't take a whole lot to be more observant than Ollie, honestly, especially not Inheritance!Ollie. Who's really rather thick.

*nodnod* The whole thing is an emotional minefield for a lot of people.

Yeah. Ollie really, really regrets screwing up so badly... and my jaw dropped right along with Roy's when Ollie said that.

Roy had to work at it to reach out that much. But with Ollie like that... he couldn't not. He does love the man, even with as much as Ollie's hurt him over the years.

Thank you! *beams* Tell Filly so, too, she's the one that wrote such an awesome Ollie. And an awesome Connor and Mia, too.
