The Politics of Love

[gil_karm]

Gerard states, gruffly, "So, let me get this straight. From the begining. She hits on you, you don't take her up on it until she says I tossed her out. Eventually, she lets you in on the fact that we didn't stop seeing each other like she told you."

Gilgamesh nods. "You have that rule about...."

"Right," Gerard acknowledges.  "I will not be with any

Your Dad rules, Gil.

[gil_karm]

Yeah. He didn't try to bend, spindle, or mutilate me.

[addison_rta]

He has a large number of Dad-like properties. But I do agree with him: your love life is more complicated than Amber Politics.

I have produced a flow chart for navigating your love life.

We'll use it to wallpaper the nursery.

Hey now. You didn't stop us, dad. You could have at any time, but you didn't.

[gil_karm]

Exactly HOW could I have stopped you when you were in another shadow and I didn't find out until she came back?

Hired the Sybil at Pathi to spy on my kin?

[felix_rta]

Hey... I told you before that... I told you after the first time...

[gil_karm]

That's what I was talking about. You didn't ask first, you just did. Repeatedly, I'm told, on the first time.

However, what you don't realize is that's my father's rule, not mine. The comment on the log only applies to his standards! Haley and I had an open relationship...at least when she was taking advantage of it.

Your love life is actually quite simple right now. I should visit your father and have a little chat with him, shouldn't I?

[gil_karm]

No! Then you'll leave me for him!

[emma_rta]

If by "leave you" you mean "yell at for disappearing for months on end" then yes.

I'll be hiding in the walls of the Palace.

Do I have to post the log where you told me that if you had a son you'd 'understand' because it should be Sol's choice and if she want's both of you it's not fair?

Aww nevermind. I got the son and we've got a closed relationship, all good. ;) No fears about a son of Felix in the future.

[gil_karm]

Do I have to point you at another post in this thread saying it's my father's rule, not mine?

Last two of the Felix run.
