I took my boyfriend to meet my mom over Mother's Day weekend and now she likes him better than me. I'm refusing to give her his cell number because I know she's just going to text him my middle school photos or something. Now she's threatening to just FedEx him copies directly. AITA if I just move out and let them be very happy together?


Sam

Thank you for letting me use you to figure out how to fuck in a bunk bed, though. It was a beautiful parting gift.



Dani

I was thinking of our other mothers on Sunday too. In my universe, anyway, we had two, the one who bore us and the one who raised us.



Elspeth

How're you doing? Completely over the asshole? Ready to party?



Katie

How'd the thing at Alex's going? I felt bad for dragging Sam away, but also not.

Honestly, who knows.

Re: Seth

Not even a ballpark idea?

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

It's a lot to process. I'm working through it as best I can.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

I found out by discovering my twin, only to find out she's from another universe where there are no mutants and I'm dead. Then I more or less ordered my boyfriend to leave me for his ex-wife.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

Oh, you're Scott's boyfriend. I understand how it all fits together now.

I found out because I was called Jean-Paul during sex. I remembered when he talked about my twin and my husband, neither of whom are in my life as Seth. And that's probably why I think about it as past and present.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

I don't mean to make things more complicated, but more people are popping up all the time.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

Right now, all I can do is hope that wherever they are, they're safe and happy.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

I hope so for you.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

Scott Summers, huh?

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

Alex Summers, huh?

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

I'm very happy about it. I was never close with Alex. We were colleagues. I like Caleb a lot.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

Good. I was on a team with Alex for years, so I'm glad he's found someone. Which is awkward to say because Lorna's my half-sister.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

Yes, And Alex's ex-girlfriend was my confidante when I fell for Alex's rival for Lorna. It's all a mess when you think of those things.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

You fell for Iceman?

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

Yes, for my sins.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

I'm so sorry. (I knew him mostly when he was an obnoxious teen.)

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

I knew him as an obnoxious adult! (He's a dear friend).

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

Are you still Canadian?

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

No. Another reason why I feel I can't easily incorporate these lives into two present entities.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

It's definitely complicated.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

You don't seem that conflicted.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

I'm here without my sister and my daughter, Seth.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

There it is.

Re: Seth

[nola_quicksilver]

Yeah, no shit. We're all conflicted.

Re: Seth

[nola_northstar]

It felt like you were being judgmental about how I was handling the conflict.
