I hope when you read this, you don't take this as mean or hurtful. It is not meant to be mean but man, does your eldest brother come across sometimes like he does not have faith in any of his brothers' capabilities and while he does not intend to appear that way, it's headshaking. It's one thing to be protective, but it's another to appear to not have faith in your team if you're not present as well. Hes ot a god. He is not the only reason IR is incredible and you are all able to handle yourselves. You aren'tinfants. You are capable and highly skilled adults.. He runs off and does solo dangerous things on rescue, nearly dies like so many times, and it does not matter what the family says he still does his own reckless thing. And now that you are clearly in control of a situation and Alan, John and Grandma are working on this fire, expertly, he's thinking of coming home, and he's commenting on everything from afar. Can't he just bloody stop? That is one mentally unhealthy place to be. It's like he can't help it. Sure, it's out of love and guilt and responsibility, but it seems it's also obsessive and out of this need for control at all times. It's getting old. It's getting dangerous for him, and the people he is rescuing and it doesn't come across as he's secure in his brothers training and capabilities and you guys are extremely capable and intelligent with lots of expertise. I trust you and all of your brothers to rescue me if I was in danger but I gotta say, if Scott Tracy shows up alone and looks exhausted, I'd be nervous. Scott needs help because its a problem. He's gonna get badly hurt one day or worse. We like all of you and wish you all the best but this overly involved and always wanting to rush back k and be there for you all undermines your skills and capabilities. Nothing against the guy, ( I like him just as much as I like all of you), but reading the way he reacts and jumps in all the time is frustrating. Its borderline meddling. Thanks for the excellent work you ALL do, not just Scott. YOURS AND ALAN'S, VIRGIL’S, JOHN'S AND KAYO’S WORK IS IMPECCABLE and greatly appreciated. Hopefully Scott will sort himself out soon and get some help as it seems nothing the family says can help him see his brothers'worth and the danger he ultimately puts himself in.

Hello “concerned IR supporter”.

I suppose I should say thanks for your message out of politeness only.

If you’ve come here looking for an empathetic ear, you’re about to leave very disappointed, and pre-warning, I’m tired and sore and still smell like bonfire so good luck.

Wonderful analysis you’ve done there. How could I possibly take your tearing my brother to shreds as mean?

Another outsider diagnosing one of my brothers like you’ve got a PhD in Tracy Family Dynamics.

I’ve had it with people taking shots at my brother like you know the first damn thing about him. You don’t. You’ve never been there when he’s bleeding and still dragging someone else out of the fire. You’ve never seen him push past exhaustion just to make sure someone else lives to see their family again. And you sure as hell haven’t seen what happens to him when he thinks he’s failed. You don’t get to sit there and call him unstable, or a problem, or act like you know better than the man who’s given more than you could ever even imagine.

Let me save you the trouble: Scott’s not broken, he’s not unstable, and he’s sure as hell not a danger to anyone. He’s the guy who’s held this family together since Dad disappeared, and if you think that comes without scars, congratulations on your brand-new grasp of the obvious. He doesn’t ‘comment from afar’ because he wants to micromanage. He does it because he’s carrying the weight of five lives plus every single person we pull out of wreckage.

Yeah, sometimes he drives us nuts. Sometimes we argue. Sometimes we blast it all over social media because apparently we haven’t mastered the concept of ‘private conversation.’ But here’s the thing - that’s between us. Family business.

You’re not in this family, so you don’t get to call him a ‘problem. You don’t get to throw around words like ‘unhealthy’ about my brother. Because at the end of the day, no matter how much we disagree, no one outside this family gets to question his loyalty, his strength, or his place at the head of this team.

You don’t get to do is sit there and act like you know better. Scott trusts us. He relies on us. He’s the reason we’re the team we are. If you believe we’re capable, then give credit where it’s due; because it’s him who trained us, pushed us, and believed in us when it counted.

You say you’d be nervous if he showed up exhausted? Better not ever get into trouble then. I’d put my life in his hands a thousand times over without blinking, and so would every single person who’s seen him in action. He doesn’t quit. He doesn’t flinch. He doesn’t fail. That’s not obsession, that’s commitment.

So there ya go. There’s the line and you don’t get to cross it. Ever.

And just because Mom would be every upset if I didn’t remember my manners… remember, everyone is allowed an opinion but it doesn’t make it right 🙂‍↔️Bless your heart and y’all have a wonderful day.

aaaaaand block.

Gordon: you said some really mean things to me yesterday.

Virgil: before or after my morning coffee?

Gordon: after

Virgil: then you probably deserved it

[cg29]

Im just feeling a certain way rn

@janetm74

Give me Scott who, ever since his mom died, would randomly wake up in the night and have to check on each sleeping member of his family and make sure they’re safe.

Give me Scott who can’t sleep without the sound of Virgil’s snoring echoing through the hall.

Give me Scott who out of habit does his routinely bedroom checks at random times at night that he wakes up at(usually from nightmares.)

Give me Scott who—out of habit—in his sleep ridden state, barely awake, performs this routine after the Zero X.

Give me Scott who pauses at the door momentarily wondering where his dad could be.

Give me Scott remembering everything that happened as he stands in his father’s doorway.

Give me Scott who breaks into tears when all the grief comes back to him in full force.

Give me Scott who never makes it back to bed those nights. Instead staying on the floor against the door frame, tear tracks covering his cheeks when his brothers find him asleep in the morning.

Give me Scott who looks in the mirror and doesn’t see his father’s son anymore. But a worn out man who never lived his childhood a child.

Whumpee's first smile

After he was rescued, Whumpee rarely smiles. They look around wide-eyed, constantly searching for a danger they know must be there. Caretaker is happy to see that, slowly, whumpee is getting used to the new environment and is starting to relax.

Then, one day, Whumpee smiles.

Maybe it's because Caretaker made a joke or maybe the sun on his skin that day was more pleasant than usual. Maybe they picked a daisy. Maybe they got out of bed for the first time or maybe caretaker brought them some chocolate.

Whumpee smiles and the smile reaches his eyes and lights them up, for the first time since they were rescued.

It may only last a few seconds, but for Caretaker it's enough.

Non-writers don't understand how much of writing is just googling things like "when was the croissant invented" for worldbuilding reasons and staring off into the distance.

[cg29]

There's nothing like wrapping up a rescue somewhere dark and dank and being greeted by endless blue skies.🌤️

Scott: I’m only going to ask you to clean this mess up one more time.

Gordon: oh good, I was getting fed up of hearing you ask.
