Poppy (to Percy): Thanks for coming over, honey... I need to ask you something.
Percy (to Poppy): Oh? Do you need me to shine your shoes or run another errand for you? Because you know how much I love doing that.
Poppy (to Percy): No... It's about Gideon.
Percy (to Poppy): Oh... What is it you need, honey?
Poppy (to Percy): I think he's here in West Piedmont. I'd like you to do a little digging with that big brain of yours & see if it's him. Here's the address and the list of his known aliases, just in case you haven't been updated with them recently.
Percy (to Poppy): Alright, honey, I'll do what I can... and, Poppy it'll be okay.
Poppy (to Percy): Oh... uh... Are you actually trying to give me a hug, honey?
Percy (to Poppy): Yes... Don't make it weird.
Vincent (to Percy & Poppy): I think that's the awkwardest sight I've ever beheld. And that includes Eep trying to be comforting.
Poppy (to Percy & Vincent): I honestly have no words...
Percy (to Poppy & Vincent): I'm sorry... I should go. I'll let you know what I find out.
Vincent (to Percy): Oh, calm down, hun. I was just teasing you. Let us know if you need anything.
Percy (to Vincent & Poppy): It should be easy enough, honey, shouldn't take me more than an hour or so. I'll see you in a little while.
Poppy (to Percy): Thank you, Percy.
Vincent (to Poppy): So, Percy gave you a hug did he?
Poppy (to Vincent): Well, you saw it, honey. I think he was trying to be nice. It was weird.
Vincent (to Poppy): As I said yesterday, I know he's trying to be his own person, and I think making peace with us is part of that... But it IS more than slightly unnerving, isn't it?
Poppy (to Vincent): Unnerving doesn't even begin to describe it, honey... He didn't even say something snotty when I asked him to help. It's just so odd.
Vincent (to Poppy): Well, if he keeps this up, we won't even recognize him, soon!
Poppy (to Vincent): Heehee, if only we could be so lucky.
Vincent (to Poppy): Hee hee. As if our luck is that good. Oop! There's the little man. Be right back, lover.
A couple hours later:
Percy (to Poppy): Hey honey, I have news... it looks like it isn't Gideon. So, you have nothing to worry about.
Poppy (to Percy): Oh well, that's good. Thank you for looking into it for me, honey. I'm sorry if it was a waste of time.
Percy (to Poppy): No, it's fine, honey. I know how all this stuff with Gideon bothers you. It's understandable that you'd want to deal with him.
Poppy (to Percy): I guess you would understand... Thank you again, honey.
Vincent (to Poppy): Hey, lover. Was that Percy? Is everything alright?
Poppy (to Vincent): Yes, honey. He said it wasn't Gideon. So, nothing to concern ourselves about.
Vincent (to Poppy): Oh, well that's a relief, isn't it? And yet you still look a might pensive...
Poppy (to Vincent): Do I, honey? I'm sorry, it was just the way Percy said something. It was making me wonder. I'm probably just being paranoid.
Vincent (to Poppy): Hee hee. I think Percy being nice is making us both a bit jumpy. Do you want to curl up on the couch with me and The Little Man and watch a movie?
Poppy (to Vincent): You're probably right & that sounds absolutely perfect, honey.
Percy (to Poppy): Oh? Do you need me to shine your shoes or run another errand for you? Because you know how much I love doing that.
Poppy (to Percy): No... It's about Gideon.
