Who: Caesar Zeppeli & open
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: None
When: 2/27

Where I come from - or in my family, anyway, and families like mine. You give your child a special name at their baptism, the name of a saint that's meant to protect and guide them in life. It's just sort of a thing that's done, I never questioned it when I was young other than to wonder why my father chose what he did for me.

Mine is Anthonio, after Anthony of Padua. You're supposed to pray for him to find lost things, any kind of lost things, even ones that aren't tangible - lost faith, for example. It's funny but I don't think I ever actually have. Prayed to him. I always wanted to find all the things I lost by myself, which doesn't actually work that well all of the time.

The patron saint of today is Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows. He died on February 27. That's the thing, saint name days are named after the day a saint died on. So Gabriel died on the same day as me. I've been wondering if that's important - if I should recognize it in some kind of permanent way. Or if I should just try not to think about it, except that doesn't work very well either.

The other thing is that I remember having very strong opinions about some of the saints when I was younger. Catherine of Siena defied her parents and cut off all of her hair so she wouldn't be encouraged to marry. I used to think she should have done what they asked of her. Now I think if I ever had a daughter, I'd want Catherine to watch over her.

Who said anything about trying?

Besides, Caesarino, I'm fairly certain nothing I could say or do right now could possibly compare to how cute you are~ （＾3＾♪
Suzie should be worried. She was supposed to be the really cute one.

it's not cute it's practical

[HUFFS]

It's completely impractical and that's why it's so cute.

it's very practical because otherwise i might forget one jojo!!!

If you forgot it, then it obviously wasn't one you really liked. So what does it matter?

[You huge fucking nerd.]

it matters it's important

I thought you weren't going to make fun of me

I'm not! I just think you worry too much. （ʃƪ＾3＾）

You think it's cute that I worry too much?

Well, not ALL the time. I'm not that much of an asshole.

But the times you worry and eventually forget that you were worried in the first place or realize you were freaking out over nothing? That's pretty damn cute.

But I didn't forget. I still think I'm right.

You just think it's stupid. But I like it because I like thinking about things that aren't this, like how I'm good at taking care of people. Especially babies. I'm really good at that.

Then I'll leave all the hard parts for you to deal with. ( ๑‾̀◡‾́)σ»

Like hell you will.

I know I'm going to because you aren't going to trust me enough with those parts anyway. So, I get to have all the fun instead!

I trust you with everything.

Even with a small child that's completely helpless and 100% dependent on everybody else?

[...They say love blinds but wow.]

Yes.

Because I know you're a lot more clever than you act. And because it's important for a father to be there through everything, even the bad things, and I know you know that too.

And because Suzie's right.

Oh.

[Were you expecting a more intelligent response to that? If so, you were both expecting and ask for far, far too much of Joseph, Caesar. Because children are really important to Caesar and he doesn't have to trust Joseph, but he does. He trust Joseph almost more than what Joseph knows what to do with sometimes.]

[Plus, well, agreeing with Suzie is kinda a big deal.]

. . . Are you going all red right now? Are you embarrassed? ੧| ‾́ー ‾́ |੭

No.

[Fuck off.]

Yes you are. ʚ♡⃛ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू)

Shut up.

You're really cute. Really really really cute.

I told you there was no acting involved. I just am cute!

[Area teen tries to save face after being flustered by boyfriend. Boyfriend can still heck off with that trying to turn things around on him though. What kind of rude bullshit is that?]

You're so cute and I'm going to trade off kissing you with Suzie until you pass out. ♥

Is that a promise? (˘ε˘ ʃƪ) . * ･｡ﾟ♡
