#able to gaslight gatekeep girlboss forty into thinking he was having a mental break

[fals3nd]

forty is an easy smile and a tip of the head at joe. "are lovey and henry out?" he knows damn well they are - love's car is conspicuously absent from the parking lot. a hand holding a large brown paper bag is raised. it's stamped with the brand of some upscale baby clothing and accoutrement brand. forty quinn ; trendy as always. "i come bearing gifts for my favorite nephew."

❛ forty. always a pleasure. ❜ it was not. ❛ what brings you to our humble abode ? ❜ joe has not moved out of the doorway , still affectively blocking forty from coming inside. love is out &* about with henry , leaving joe alone for once. ( recommended by their therapist. ) seems the universe had other plans. / @fals3nd , ♡'d
