It’s Joel’s first two-day patrol, and he wanted someone there overnight for Ellie. Gave Tommy a list of instructions a mile long, and he wishes it was the type he used to get for Sarah— not too many sweets, don’t stay up late, don’t you dare smoke. Nah, for Ellie it was give her space waking up from a nightmare or you might get knifed and there’s broth if she can’t keep down dinner.

* Or, a 3+1 about Tommy, Ellie, and trust.

Hi there. I had a question for you about Watching Through Windows. I know it's been a long time now since your wrote it. I've read it a million times since it was posted. I always wonder, what made you choose to have Patrick NOT tell David their story? They tell him about losing the $$$, moving to SC, Alexis's history but not about him starting the store and meeting Patrick, etc. I guess I was just curious if u would share why you made that creative decision. Love the fic and all your work.

Hi hi! I’m so glad you enjoy the fic :D

So in canon we’ve seen Patrick withhold info a lot. I think he’d do that here too. As for why, it’s anyone’s interpretation tbh! But here’s my thinking in this fic (though I’m reaching back to summer ‘19– I haven’t re read besides listening to rev jo’s lovely podfic— so bear with me)

I think there’s three things driving Patrick’s (probably subconscious) decision-

* He’s super bad at talking about fraught things! Even in this future verse lol

* He’s protecting himself. Telling David all the most treasured details about their relationship and getting any negative reaction would be pretty devastating imo!! David hurts some feelings in this fic just because he doesn’t have the context to know better 🤷🏻‍♀️

* He thinks David is going to leave him regardless, and it’ll hurt less if David doesn’t doing it knowing all those precious things, and at least the memories will be preserved as a Before and After for Patrick

Thanks for your comment!!

“Would you have picked me up in a bar, if I’d been there back when you were looking for randoms?” Patrick asks, pupils blown wide. “I’ve never done that before, I don’t even know what it would be like, but. I can imagine. I’d want it.”

or, David has some idle talents; Patrick has some fantasies that would put them to use.
