“Dude, hold up!---- You’ve never been to a pottery and paint class before?” With disbelief, Tyrone still laughs. He looks up from painting his abnormally shaped mug---a bright yellow colour that matched his aura-- accompanied by a proud smile. He always made sure to do the most, unique things in life or else he felt like he was missing out... so, he felt extremely happy that he wasn’t alone in this sort of adventure, even if it wasn’t grand or bougie. “Good thing I dragged your ass here, am I right?”

"Are you done talkin'?" After a beat of silence, he spoke up. He'd wanted the other to let it all out before interjecting. It was polite and unlike his character. But Zed liked to clear the air, even if it made him seem like an asshole, inside AND out. He would NOT have his named tarnished and they weren't kids anymore, this wasn't a game of 'telephone'. "---'Cause your whole story is so fuckin' wrong, man. Don't put words in my mouth."

Fuck.... fuck, FUCK! Was there a chance that Zachariah was far too drunk to hear the other correctly? Probably not. The news stunned him enough to render him speechless-- opposite to how his mouth constantly ran with bullshit. He got his girlfriend pregnant? A million, incoherent thoughts clouded his mind, except one-- he was not or never would be ‘father’ material and blamed the universe, immediately. While it was bound to happen (as he rarely gave two shits about playing the rules), Zachariah wasn’t expecting this news to be told from someone OTHER than his current girlfriend. It made him a little angry-- or maybe it was the alcohol. 

“You’ve gotta be joking, dude,” Zachariah coughed up, and absentmindedly reached for a nearby glass to pour some MORE liquor into-- not for the drink itself, but to push away the bitterness he had to swallow. “It’s not my fault. I didn’t do anything--- she,” Taking another quick swig, the inconsistency overclouded everything again, making no sense. He tried to lie, like he always had done but it wasn’t working. “She told me she was on the pill.” To be fair, he was equal parts scared of the outcome AND her family, what was let on by his glossy expression. “Did she tell you this? She’s a fucking liar.”

"I agree, I'm sure you will make good use of the table. You DESERVE it," He grinned. "But give all the credit to my mother. Oh boy, you would've loved her." Ajax was an old soul and deep down, he prided himself on that. Of course, it wasn't just evident by his rickety old century home with fake wood paneling for walls and endless beige carpet, a mood lamp or a closet full of hideous Hawaiian shirts that made him look like Tom Selleck. He was brought up with morals and a way to respect everyone that crossed his path-- even with a cranky neighbour like ol' man Maguire. It was a small town with rich history and even though the majority of buildings were abandoned or turned into something more lively, it wasn't super exciting for the young folks--- but their community continued to stay tight-knit and active. He helped where he could, and was always this way. No soul was left untouched by the Copperfield's. Ajax was old but he still had life in him and was just continuing to do what he did best.

Maybe, just maybe, was a little bias because out of the townspeople he helped, Athena was his favourite person. She made the loneliness disappear. "She was a very kind and thoughtful woman. Endlessly, she dedicated her time to helping others, whether that was making a casserole to a new mother whom was too tired to cook or crocheting baby blankets. And cleaning the kitchen and gardening. She did all that while my father came home from work and expected dinner on the table at a set time." He sighed and looked out the window, for a mere moment.

Ajax missed his parents and he definitely wouldn't have become the man he was if it wasn't for them. He inherited the GOOD traits and because of her, she didn't make him do the things he didn't want to. No war. No football. Young Ajax was a little more spontaneous than he was now and never planned to leave. This was his roots, and found himself through hard-work and being a handyman than through police work. "You remind me of her--- neither of you ever gave up when things became tough and are naturally full of LOVE," The comment slipped but was casually swept away when he heard pattering of feet run down the stairs, spotting Adam and Morgan. Wasn't it still summer? Why were the kids awake? He thought to himself with a chuckle and a big grin appeared. "You love your kids and it shows--- and speaking of."

Saving a more serious talk for later, could wait, just like Athena had mentioned and to acknowledge it, he patted her hand that was on his bicep. At the warm welcome, he reached to hug the others. "Good morning, boys!" Born with a deep register, he hoped he hadn't woken any of them and kept his voice down, assuming Betty was the only one not awake now as he didn't see her. Politely, he gave them space in the kitchen and told them about the table-- before watching them run out with their breakfast, once toast popped and cereal was poured. Ajax kept his grin up and stared back at Athena. This morning, he luckily didn't have many jobs on the agenda, but still knew better than to overstay, since he assumed Athena had a list of stuff to do. "How about I circle back around lunchtime and we can talk?" A mere suggestion, though his feet didn't move yet.

With a few blinks, he almost reminisced back on their younger years and how he was around when Roxy was born, and she was struggling. How they'd spend a spare moment together at the station, just talking. Or when she needed a literal pick-me-up in his truck. Ajax felt he was always there and never let himself get too close. He NEVER expected more than this friendship, even though neither of them were getting younger (though Athena didn't seem to age!) "Are sandwiches okay? I didn't forget--- I just, is anyone allergic to anything?"

After Athena's marriage had ended, she shut herself off from the idea of ever finding romantic love. She had a family to think of, kids to prioritize as they found their way to her over the years. It was understandable to focus on the children she fostered (and later adopted) as they needed her full attention and love. Of course, there was still room in Athena's heart for close friends like Ajax that had stuck by her side through the worst experiences of her life. Ajax specifically would always be someone Athena made time for, he more than deserved it after all he'd done for her. Clearly he showed no sign of stopping his caring behaviour, as the picnic table proved.

There really weren't any words in the English language to accurately convey how much Athena loved Ajax. How much she appreciated him. Since they were young he'd been someone she could rely on. How refreshing it was to have a man in her life that didn't expect anything from her? Didn't push her for a relationship or sex? He always seemed grateful for her company, her platonic love. It baffled her that he remained single since in her eyes he was the total package, a real gem of a human that anyone should be lucky to be with. Lately she'd been wondering if perhaps there was something more to their relationship, if he was also seeing her in a different light these days. The blindfold was slowly slipping from her eyes, her heart warming everytime they locked eyes. No action would be taken on her part just yet. The curiosity would continue to bubble and brew until it came to a boil and burst from her. That day was not today.

"We were worthy of being your project?" she asked softly, her eyes wet and sparkling as she smiled at him. She wore her affection right on her face, the warmth carved into every feature. She couldn't believe his kindness... but yes, actually, she could. This was textbook Ajax behaviour! A gesture she hadn't asked for but he'd known would be good for the family. A gesture he'd literally heard her littles say they wanted. A gesture he'd taken personal time to accomplish. How lucky she was to know him and be loved by him.

"You're a good listener. The boys have been pretty fixated on the idea of eating their meals outside so thank you again for making that a reality for them. They're going to be so freaking excited when they see it." Athena would think of a way to repay Ajax, a favor she could do for him to show her appreciation. She knew he didn't expect anything in return, that certainly wasn't what motivated him to do this, but he deserved a token anyway. That was just how she loved.

"They absolutely are sleeping, mhm. Though I doubt it'll be much longer before they make their appearances down here." Athena glanced to the clock on the microwave to verify the time. She expected her children would be greeting them in no time at all. "If you wanted time alone with me you're out of luck, buster. Maybe once they see the table we'll get some privacy for adult conversation." Her smile stretched wider as she rested a hand gently on his arm. "You're so good to us. I'll never understand what compels you to be this way but I'm so so grateful for you, Ajax."
