"We . . . did," Duke said slowly. "How, uh. How long has it been?"
Jennifer shrugged. "I don't know. Not quite a week?"
Duke squeezed his eyes shut. "I can't decide if it's reassuring or not that Haven insists on not going too long without me."
[note to self, you can file these threads together neatly later, DON'T WORRY 'BOUT IT.
note to you two, ping off this comment whenever you're ready, I like having Tavi and Luce taking a moment to be all like "oh fuck, we're doing this again" without Duke around to get his manic all over them both. . . .]
