And, to add insult to injury, his concern only heightened once he saw Maxine wandering over alongside Seb. Eyes flitted from the two siblings approaching before looking back to Bowie. ❝ Oh common, lighten up, Eddie boy! It’d be a good time, just admit it! ❞
Did Aspen just tell Eddie to lighten up?
With a slightly distasteful grimace across his features, Eddie stared at Bowie sternly for a moment before glancing towards Maxine as she and Seb arrived. ❝ Oh, come on! I bet Bowie would be a great dad. ❞ Seb was oblivious to any tension which lingered in the air, Eddie’s lips twitching awkwardly before he looked away. ❝ Fun? ❞ Fun tended to coincide with recklessness. ❝ Of course. ❞
Most seemed far more interested in Tommy’s grand scheme to produce a snowy haven for children to enjoy. Eddie took it as a moment to peer over towards Maxine, searching for her attention quietly before cracking a quick ghost of a smile towards her. ❝ Max- ❞ He greeted quietly, hesitating for a moment before he asked, ❝ Was thinking... You busy later today? ❞
He would ask in front of Bowie. Eddie didn’t care.
As for Tommy, he was too fixated on his own ideas to take notice of Eddie’s faltering love life. ❝ Atta man, Rich. ❞ Tommy patted Rich’s shoulder with a pleased hum. He appreciated Rich’s willingness to go along with what Tommy tended to talk about; it always made Tommy look particularly good.
After announcing his idea, he already had two willing volunteers.
❝ Now that, right here, is fuckin’ fantastic. Two offers in one single breath. That tickles me pink, yeah; is like Christmas, but better. I ain’t ever getting no help around here. Am I? ❞ He paused, noticing that his little brother wasn’t listening to him. He sent Eddie a quick kick, Ed quickly looking over his shoulder. ❝ Am I? ❞ ❝ Yeah, yeah. ❞ Eddie definitely hadn’t been listening, Tom could tell as Eddie dismissed him quickly before his attention returned to Max.
Tom wagged his finger towards Seb and then to Aspen. ❝ You and you is gonna be so helpful. I was actually thinking, right, that we replicate them sleds we’ve got for the horses already. Won’t be too hard. We construct a prototype and test it on one of this buggers- ❞ He jabbed his thumb over his shoulder towards the reindeer, ❝ And we go from there. In the meantime, who wants to help me groom ‘em? All five of you - c'mon. ❞
