signofthetimesWho: Brandon Blake, Jesse Hartley and later Merlin Larson
What: Strange situations or... kismet?
Where: Hartley-Turner-Casey-Larson Residence, NYC
When: After this and this
Brandon was fascinated with all the photos lining the floor to ceiling bookcase at Autumn’s brother’s home. He didn’t know who any of the people in the photos were, but they all looked so happy. So many family photos. At first, he was only looking to see if there were any of Merlin, thinking maybe there might have been a mistake or something because that would have made this whole thing easier to wiggle his way out of. Once he knew what Jesse looked like, he managed to find a framed picture of him with a guy who was unmistakably the Merlin he had met in London and ended up with a relentless crush on, even sitting a little distance away on the sofa. He wanted to get up for a closer look but he didn’t want Jesse to come back and spring him at it. That would be awkward as all hell and he had a reputation to protection, which is what got him into all this to start with.
“Sorry about that,” Jesse said with a smile, returning to the living room with a couple of mugs. He offered one to Brandon with freshly brewed green tea with licorice root. “I’m sorry you haven’t been feeling well. Now, you might think this tastes like shit, so don’t feel obligated to force it down if you do. We have plenty of other things to drink. But it’s got a good wrap for soothing upset stomachs and contributing to the immune system. My brother-in-law’s just been diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease and he said it seems to help a little.”
( Even if a little bit of a strange situation, Jesse had welcomed Brandon when he arrived to have a chat mostly about Merlin but Autumn seemed to imply there was much more to this situation than she could reveal... )
