#kaldur: its not flirting; he wouldve certiainly noticed by now if that were the case

[zxcerjnvxrh]

heres a rushed summary of the bullshit thats going to keep me away for the next 7 days, based off that singular moment with lynn and will in 3x09

will: this isn’t working. i know you don’t mind this whole lying game but for some of us our conscience is still functional

lian: papa!

will: not now lian. ‘papa’ and i are talking

kaldur: i understand that you are not happy but this is not up for debate. artemis wants to be with her niece, and i agree that she should stay...where family can watch out for her. lynn’s assumptions are simply that. we do not need to upend our entire plan based on one afternoon

will: its not just one afternoon! its every day -- every little league playdate, every coffee pot i brew every morning. i don’t like this cover up game, kal.

kaldur: so you are comfortable coming forward then?

will: ...

kaldur: though i believe on the surface world, you refer to is as ‘coming out’

will: kaldur--

kaldur: the choice is yours. i am familiar with being hated for things i cannot control about my person. there truly is nothing new under the sun. but the reality is that i do not want to drag you and lian into the crossfire. you have a life, will. it’s a life that you love and you’re proud of. i would hate myself if i took that away from you

will: im not breaking up with you, if thats what you’re getting at, fishsticks. i told you im in this for the long haul

kaldur: and so am i. i simply believe that for us, said long haul is more...complicated

will: that’s been your favorite word for the last 5 years, huh? listen, i dont have to be happy with your choices and i sure as hell don’t have to agree with them. but lucky for you, i still get to choose to love you, even tho i think your head harder than actual rocks sometimes

kaldur: only sometimes?

will: oh my god, please just get out and do some good in the world so i can convince myself not to actually smack you right now. sort this shit out with diana and batman and -- whoever, i don’t know what the hell youre up to and i dont expect you to tell me

kaldur: will...

will: i know what i signed up for. but you should really leave; dick’s in the habit of swinging by unexpectedly lately, and i know you don’t want to explain to him what actually goes down in casa de harper behind closed doors

kaldur: this will all end soon. i promise. and then we can consider renaming this residence

will: will durham and his husband kaldur’ahm durham sounds STUPID we’ve discussed this and im not letting you suck me into it again. it’s kaldur harper or nothing

kaldur: mhmm

kaldur: i will change your mind

will: stop looking at me like that before i actually want you to stay.

will: ...

will: call when you can, okay?

kaldur: of course

will: and i don’t care what bats has you on, if you miss lian’s birthday next month im dumping you

kaldur: i wouldn’t expect anything less of you, my love
