Tara! ❤ @starsdah-b
It was a pleasure and an honor for me to work with you. I’m so glad I got to have you as my artist and I think what you created is beyond lovely. I enjoyed your input on the fic, hearing your thoughts and feedback, I loved seeing the sketches you made and witnessing the work process, and I am so taken by the resulting art! The tenderness that you capture here between Robert and Aaron, the way they hold each other and how mutual it is, the inclusion of the candle (meeeeep! The theme of light!) and how you make me feel what they feel for each other, I adore it to no end. I could stare at this all day (and I probably will). You’re insanely talented and I’m so glad you picked my story and that you’re a part of this fandom. We’re really lucky to have you. Thank you for sharing your gift with us! <3333333

Can I please prompt Seb asking various relatives how his dads met?
“Nana?” He mumbles around a mouthful of fish and chips. He should wait until he’s finished chewing, Dad says, but Papa doesn’t, and besides he can’t wait.
“Yes love?” He loves coming to Nana’s for tea, and it’s just the two of them. Sometimes Granddad Paddy is there. He’s not sure what he make of him really, he doesn’t get a lot of his jokes, but he does sometimes take him to see the animals at the vets so he’s alright he supposes.
“How did Daddy and Papa meet?” He scoops up another forkful of fish. It’s Marlon’s cooking and it’s really good. Not as good as Dad’s but he doesn’t cook fish and chips. He only has it when he comes here so it’s a proper treat.
“You’d have to ask them sweetheart. I don’t think your Papa has ever told me. Your Dad came back to live here not long before that though.” She busies herself clearing her plate away and he watches. People think because he’s little that he doesn’t know when they don’t want him to know things, but he does.
*****
He asks Cain next. He’s a bit scared of Cain, he’s all grumpy and cross faced, but he’s heard people say that about Papa and he doesn’t understand because Papa’s really smiley.
He shouldn’t be here, near the garage. Dad had told him to stay in the garden, but that was boring, and besides it was only the village, nothing bad was going to happen so he’d walked up to the garage.
Cain was bent over a car. Seb liked cars. Papa let him play in some of the ones at the scrapyard, and he’d pretend that he was one of those racing drivers off the telly. He knew what all the controls did, Papa had shown him one day when Dad was nowhere to be seen. He’d had to promise he’d never drive anything until he was old enough though before he would, or that he’d tell Dad.
“Alright squirt? Come to help me with an oil change have ya?” Cain’s not grumpy today, that’s good. He’s a bit scared of grumpy Cain.
“Ok!” Cain chuckles then and his face drops at the teasing.

Love this. So much. ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
