So, Mr.Muselk, are you finally going to adopt Clarissa and Jared.

Elliott: Y/N is picking Clarissa up, and I'm on my way to Jared.

You know, Clarissa's sort of an outcast now. When you first met her, she was very controlling over her TikTok dances, you have to be careful with her.

Elliott: She knows the rules.

And if she doesn't follow them?

Elliott: I haven't exactly thought of that.

You don't have the screen time to think that through.

Elliott: I'm sorry the what?

By which I mean you aren't given enough attention by Y/N to have this conversation with him. My euphemisms are too vague at times.

Elliott: Why are you trying to ruin my relationship?

Sad of you to project your problems onto a bodiless voice whose name is a vowel. In fact I technically just said my name.

Elliott: Y/N and I are excited but stressed about this so we haven't had much time to communicate it's not that complicated.

Something's bound to go wrong, and by bound I mean bound by the strings of story.

Elliott: How did Y/N bare with you?

Oh trust me, I bared with him.

Time skip brought to you by an evil author:

Elliott: Ok Jared, are you ready to enter your new home?

Jared: I guess.

Elliott: That's my boy.

And as Elliott opens the door, with a gleam of joy in his eyes as he finally makes progress with Jared, his son is bombarded with...

Click: SURPRISE!

Y/N: Hey Jared!

Jared: What are all these people doing here? Leave me alone!

You: Uhmmm...oops.

Kath: Is he okay?

You: I guess not.

Elliott: Y/N! What is wrong with you?!

You: I didn't think Jared would freak out at the sight of his aunts and uncles.

Marcus: This is why Lachy and I aren't having any children.

Kath: It's not like you're responsible enough in the first place.

Marcus: Can you stop being so salty everytime I mention Lachlan?

Kath: Can you not mention Lachlan?

You: I thought you guys had patched this up?

Ilsa: Even I'm still mad at Lannan and that was way older than with Kath so I'm not surprised.

Lannan: Where is little Clarissa?

You: Filming a TikTok about her getting adopted.

Lannan:...TikTok's still cringe.

You: Where did Jared go? Also where is Lachlan?

Marcus: He said he had a headache. Something about him bumping into the 4th wall.

You: Specifically the 4th wall? Odd. How does he count the walls? It's a square.

Meanwhile:

Lachlan: AH!!!!

Don't worry the pain will be over soon.

Lachlan: YOU AGAIN?!

Ugh...bippity boppity boo.

Lachlan: Wow that aspirin worked really well.

Againwhile:

Elliott: JARED?!

Jared: Leave me alone.

Elliott: Jared, don't worry. Those people in there are your uncles and aunts.

Jared: I don't like surprises!

Elliott: Well in that case, you're getting a phone tomorrow.

Jared: I just don't like sudden things.

Elliott: Because of how your parents died?

Jared: Yes.

Elliott: Ok, just hold my hand as I introduce you.

Jared: Ok.

Elliott: Here we go.
