You never fail to impress me.

Lovely update. Ryan's fear and confusion is palpable and yay for Kirsten taking the initiative and being wary with him, yet making it clear that she was there for him. I also think your Seth-voice is very in character, he followed Ryan and watched out for him, painfully aware that he was out of his element and the tender moment of discussion between him and his dad was wonderful.

Thanks for sharing!! Love this so much.
