[text] Father's Day

[mediumdrip]

This weekend is Father's Day, isn't it?

Kurt's dad is amazing. He's the type of father everyone wishes they had. He's strong and caring but he won't let you get away with being an idiot either. He really centers everyone around him and guides them into remembering what's really important. He and Kurt have a relationship that really blows me away every time I see them together. They've accomplished something amazing together.



(I'm sorry if talking about him makes you upset, Kurt. We'll do something to celebrate together okay?)



It's weird because I should be missing my own father back home but right now I can't stop thinking about someone a lot of us have lost recently. I feel like I'd give anything if I could just give him a corny tie or printed coffee mug. Even if he really wasn't my dad. He took care of me.

I miss him.


I think it's good to remember people though. If you have your father or father-figure still here with you, let's celebrate him. If yours is back home or has passed away, let's remember him. And for those of you who are dads or dad-like, Happy Father's Day.

Sure. They're important enough to get their own day.

I think having Kurt's dad would have made every one's lives better.

That was sweet, Blaine. Thank you.

[Now private and text forever!]

Yeah. I called myself Superman for a little bit when he wasn't around, but he came back and it was the only right thing to do. He let me keep the name of Superboy though. He gave me my two real names too later on.

His arch nemesis pretty much took his DNA, mixed it with his own, and voila. Instant me. After 12 tries to get it right, that is. I came into the world at 16 years old. I never grew up like everyone else does.

why?

I'm sorry you're away from him, Kurt.

If he was here, perhaps my father could learn from him.

Yeah. What's your dad like?

[ever and ever]

[mediumdrip]

That sounds like it would be really hard to come to terms with...

[mediumdrip]

Why not?

Re: [Text]

Sometimes I wonder what he'd think of everything that has happened here.

[kryptonianclone]

Don't suppose you've ever heard of a guy named Lex Luthor.

[terrified]

[Oh. Good point.]

i don't know. i think maka's dad annoys her. and kid's father is death. i think those are the only fathers i know. so it seemed weird to have a day.

My real one? He's all right. I don't think I'm what he wanted but he really tried.

[motioned]

Okay :)

Who was it?

[mediumdrip]

Not really?

[kryptonianclone]

If he ever shows up, run in the other direction. He's the arch nemesis.

He wanted me to be his son but he had a funny way of showing it.

So the 'dad' who I actually wanted to be a father to me didn't want to and the 'dad' who did, I didn't want anything to do with.

[mediumdrip]

There are some dads around here who are great. If you wanted to meet more?

[mediumdrip]

Dr. Xavier.

[motioned]

oh

You were close?

[terrified]

i don't know. [Crona starts to type 'i'm not really good at' - but takes that back and instead sends: ] i just don't know how to deal with parents.
it's ok. they can have a day. i just didn't know about it.

[mediumdrip]

That's tough. I'm sorry.

[mediumdrip]

I wasn't as close to him as a lot of people, but he helped me a lot.

[motioned]

I'm sorry.

I know it's been a while, but he still could come back! I know people who've stayed away longer.

[mediumdrip]

Parents can be hard to deal with.
