Hanging in there? [considering... everything that's happened lately >>"]

Yes, I am. I'm alright. thankfully, Jeremy does not have to go to the hospital. it makes me very sad that people so young can lose so much. when i was their age, death was far from my mind. how about you? [LMFAO >>" ah yes, the everything <<]

Kid got real damn lucky this time, but they've had it rough. It ain't fair and it makes me angry more than it makes me sad, but that's not helpful, either. I'm relieved there's no trip to the ER. Gotta wonder where to go from here, though.

incredibly lucky, but when we're grieving, we fight back except there's nothing to fight against most of the time. It makes me both honestly in equal amounts, I think. I'm definitely wondering. I know Elena spoke with him, but I'm worried about them both

I know. I've been there. We all have. It's just a matter of hoping they pull out from there. All we can do is let them know they're not alone with it, but I'm worried about them both, too. Too young to be dealing with all of these things. Wish I could protect them from it.

Yeah, we have, the universal thing that connects us all in Chicago. I do hope they can, and I spoke with Elena some and Jeremy some. [A fic for the narration to write. :x :x] I know. I wish I could too, but there isn't any way to protect them. We can only support.

That's good. I know they find it easy to talk to you both and I'll try my hand at it myself at some point. [aslkfja fwahhhh yes please *_*] I know, darlin. Thankfully, they got that in spades and they ain't gonna lose it any time soon.

You should. You're really rather good at talking to people in times like these. I should know. You've helped me multiple times. [rjkel;a *___* LMFAO it will happen. :x] No, they're not. Not if I have anything to say about it.

I'll give it some time for things to settle before I give it a go myself. You don't know how good it is to hear you say that, darlin. I'm glad I could help. Not if I have to say anything about it, etiher. I'll be home soon.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Well, it's the truth, Wes. I'm certain you can help them too because you've helped me so much. Okay, be safe. I'll have a pot of coffee waiting for you.

i made you cupcakes. :)

You did? Anne, that is very sweet of you. You didn't have to do anything at all. [Pause. :x] What kind are they?

i know i didn't have to. and i'll understand if you don't want to do anything big for the day or anything, but i wanted to. [ bc it's marfa ;; ] chocolate graham cracker cupcakes with toasted marshmallow! :)

i wasn't planning on doing anything too big. i'm getting up there in the years so birthdays kind of become something you forget about at least when they're your own. but i love that you wanted to. :) rachel's birthday was the same as mine actually. [jrklea; baw ;;] that sounds absolutely delicious. i didn't even know those types of cupcakes existed!

i understand. i never want anything too big on my birthdays. i don't like the spotlight being on me. did you just imply you're old? because you are not old whatsoever! and of course i wanted to. [ There's a small pause as ffff ;; ] i didn't know that. is that why you didn't want anything too big? [ WELL ;; ] omg all kinds of cupcakes exist. they keep coming up with new things. i can't even keep all of them straight.

I remember you don't, but we still celebrate them because it's important so I'm glad you reminded me of that. i needed the reminding. I am a little old, Anne. [Tiny smirk though and then fff jrl;ea ;;] Part of the reason, but there are a lot of them. [Reasons. ;;] We should light a candle on one of the cupcakes for her too tonight. [jrkle;a /DIES] I had no idea! Then again I don't tend to cook or bake much for obvious reasons. [Ahem. >>] Pancakes are about as far as I can go.

We can absolutely celebrate all of our birthdays according to how everyone prefers them. Some like a big fuss made about them and others don't. I'll remind you every year! And you are not even a little old. [ fff and Anne understands that, which is why she doesn't press. ;; ] I think that's a beautiful idea. One for her and one for Robin. Just 'cause he'd have liked to be involved if she was. [ LMFAO WELL ] i can show you all the new recipes. and not everyone likes to cook! that's why you have me. :)

That's what I thought even a little cake is better than no recognition of it at all as it is important. Every year we get and every year we have together is very important. Thank you for the yearly reminders. :) [And fff it is good to believe ;; that there will be many years ahead of them, to not expect Anne to be gone, to disappear one day.] Not even a tiny bit old? [She smiles and nods in agreement.] They should always be remembered, and he would have. [LMFAO rjkle;a.] I like it, but I'm not necessarily the very best at it. In the world. I put up a good effort though. I'd love to see those new recipes. :)

it is very important. it signals another year and that's something to be celebrated. the how-to of the celebration rests entirely on you. unless you'd rather i take over, which you know, you've taught me well as your assistant so i do know a thing or two. [ She will not disappear one day, Marfa. None of them will bc the narrations have decided it long ago for you. ;; ] not even a tiny bit! i know things. like i know they would both like that very much. [ Along with Martha having her day. ] wes and i will handle the cooking side of things. it's not like you aren't amazing at everything else ever.

it is important especially given how years go here and everything else. every year we all spend together is worthy of that celebration. :) how about we take it on together? we're a good team in that sense. [jrkle;a /weeps ;; you are marfa's favorite, ella. u.u] oh, well if you know these things and are telling me, i should believe it. they would. [that makes her smile.] thank god for you both, and i am not amazing at everything

I do love our teamwork of the past and the fruits of our labor every time. Maybe we can just have a dinner at home with the usual suspects and anyone else you'd like to invite? that would be low-key but still a celebration. [ WELL marfa is my favorite so this is only fair. u.u ] practically amazing at everything! is that better?

i love it too. it started off and continued on strong as could be. that is a very good idea. a nice dinner with people i care about and cupcakes to finsh it off. i can't think of a better birthday. :) [jkrle;a LMFAO baw ;; she is honored. u.u] that is much, much better. thank you, anne.

and it shouldn't be any other way. great! i'll get started on planning at least the rough draft of the thing. it'll be the best birthday suited to the occasion, you'll see. :) [ WELL ;; she is marfa ] you're welcome, martha. :)

thank you so much. i mean that. :) i have no doubts at all in you, anne. it'll be the most wonderful birthday that i've had. [and her smile widens and baw ;; cause all the kids under her house are like HERS and yes, she says the following:] i love you. <3 [FAMBLY.]

you're welcome so much! it's my pleasure, i mean that, too. [ and she has no doubts that it's going to be the most wonderful birthday. they'll all make it so, because of how much they care. asldkfja FWAUGH and marfa ;; anne's smile deepens at those words, at the reminder of their being a family and how that came to be, and more importantly, how much it matters. ] i love you, too. <3 [ BEST FAMBLY. ]
