i won't lie, there is something very satisfying about telling your daughter's friends that that actor they all have crushes on - who's 20 years too old for them - is an ex of mine. i know my calling in life as a father is to embarrass my child and i do my best to live up to expectations every single day. if you have any other useful parenting tips for parents of children about to enter their teens, drop them below. useful ones only. serious parenting advice will be ignored.

HUNTER: I'd love to grab a couple up? HUNTER: Let me know when works for you.

BLAINE: Hey there Hunter! I'm selling CD's at a discounted price at the morning. Normally they are $8, but the EP is $5 until I sell out of what I have made currently!

[hunterclaringtonhq]

HUNTER: co-parenting an animal couldn't be nearly as laborious as co-parenting a child, so i am rather open to the idea, libby. HUNTER: I will be free the rest of the week. Sorry I have been delayed, I've been in a lot of meetings this week.

LIBBY: I mean, I'm not against it living here, but I'm also not against it staying with you sometimes, too. I think we have the co-parenting thing down pretty well by now, why not also throw a dog in there? LIBBY: Yeah, for sure. When are you free?

[hunterclaringtonhq]

you have the skills to build furniture from scratch? i have to say i find that very impressive. i've never really been all that hands on, hard labor myself. it's a skill i've never become familiar with unfortunately. where did you learn to do that? or is it some type of innate ability?

Ikea beats the best of us, don't be too hard on yourself! I'm sure you've had plenty of people offer to help, but I'm one of the one's Ikea has bested, so while I can't help you put together the thing from Ikea I can go with you to return it and then build you something from scratch. Because somehow, that's easier.

Hunter had made many mistakes in his thirty years on earth, some of them resulted in something wonderful, like his daughter. Others had left lasting consequences, but there was few decisions that had been as impactful on him as his decent into addiction, and his subsequent struggle with sobriety for nearly a decade. In the course of it he'd lost a lot of relationships, but losing the special connection he'd had with Marley had been one of the hardest pills to swallow. He'd always known she was out of his league, and once he'd let her down, he'd been too ashamed to try and win her back, or show back up in her life to show her that he'd changed. But he had. Maybe now he'd get the chance. "I think we just got lucky that you caught me during a move." A white lie, he'd held on to a few things that reminded him of her for a long time, but when she'd asked him about this, he knew it was time to part with it. "I guess when things are meant to be they come back to you at just the right time..."

Marley walked into the place and tried not to flinch when her eyes landed on him, but sometimes it was still hard to see Hunter after all this time. Maybe it had been over for years, and maybe it was over because she ended it, but it didn't make it less sad. She tried to keep her composure as she walked to the table and slid into the booth, "Hi - oh yeah, it's the same order. I tried to change it up after we broke up, but everything else tastes like dirt to me. She accepted the coffee gratefully and gave him a small smile, "How are you doing?" she asked, "And how did you manage to find my long-lost dolly guitar pick? I truly thought it was gone forever."

HUNTER: what about that makes you an asshole? HUNTER: of course i'll come with. unless you've found someone else to accompany you?

SAGE: So, I'm an asshole, and I want another tattoo. SAGE: Those two statements are unrelated, but I'm an asshole because I want you to come with me to get it. @hunterclaringtonhq

[hunterclaringtonhq]

charlie, is that really how people address you? you really should do something about that. i'm glad to see you out at psu and doing your studies, i think the last time i saw you, you were still pretty young.

you know, i think lydia is thinking about getting a pup, libby's been messaging me about it lately, but it is a big responsibility for someone her age.

Finally caved and decided to get on this site after actually making it to my junior year this time ✌🏻 unfortunately, most of you will probably know me as the Transgender Schuester thanks to my highly televised transition spectacle over two seasons of reality tv, but in case you were living under a rock for that time or you're simply just a reasonable human being and never watched it, my names Charlie!

I'm pre-med and definitely loving it, even though it's hard and I barely have time to find new recipes to try out, or see my friends, or tackle my TBR... I'm also minoring in Gender Studies which is less stressful and definitely more fun!

Uh... what else?

I'm thinking of getting a dog. The sperm donor never let me have one because they are "unpredictable to film" and I always wanted one... any recommendations? I always wanted a big one... not Great Dane big, as much as I love Scooby Doo, but still big enough for some fluffy cuddles.

Hunter nodded, a curt barely there type of nod that was a sure indicator that he was holding back, he was never very good at expressing his feelings in a healthy way, in rehab they'd told him as much, that it was his in ability to control them that caused him to go off the deep end. And while he'd gained control, he still kept things close to the vest, which was why Taylor - and everyone else he knew - had never really understood exactly what had happened with himself and Marley. "I'm not sure if it's good." He spoke with casual honesty, "But I would like to see her again..." Even if she doesn't want to see me.

One thing Taylor loved above all else was time with her family. Well...her siblings and niece, anyway. Their parents were a whole other story. Anyway, she loved these lunch outings, and sipped contentedly on her water as they awaited their bill. She flashed the waiter a smile, though raised a brow at Hunter's timely admission, waiting until they were alone to respond. "Really?" There was a blast from the past—perhaps she should've told him she thought she'd spotted her at the mixer. She hadn't spoken to her, but she'd definitely seen either Marley or Delilah from across the room. "Well, that's a good thing, right? I don't know where you guys stand, but I did always like her."

[hunterclaringtonhq]

HUNTER: I suppose it could be something we could look into. I could keep it here if you prefer? I've been thinking about getting a pet again, you know I have a preference for cats but I could be partial to a dog as well. HUNTER: We would have to give her the 'this is a big responsibility' chat, should we do that together? Maybe we should have dinner.

📲 LIBBY & HUNTER

LIBBY: Where do you stand on us getting Lydia a dog? LIBBY: She's been begging for months now, I assume to you too. I'm thinking of giving in, but do we think she's ready? Also would she bring it to your place during your time with her? Will we basically be co-parenting a dog as well?? So many questions. @hunterclaringtonhq

[hunterclaringtonhq]

Hunter hated being told he was wrong, which was why he'd waited until the day-of, to even mention his meet up with Marley to his Taylor, skirting around the topic while he treated her to lunch, which he tried to do regularly whenever they were in town at the same time, which would be all the time now that he had settled at the university. He was glad for it, the stability of his sisters had always been a comfort to him, a way to keep himself grounded when he felt he was often adrift. "So..I'm seeing Marley later." He announced, as the bill was set down at the table. Marley Rose. The only person he'd ever truly loved outside of his family, the person who he'd destroyed in a way he'd never be able to fix.

Hunter knew it was a mistake to make such a big deal over nothing, it was just a guitar pick, one he could and likely should have just sent back to Marley in the mail and been done with it. She didn't owe him anything, especially after the way things had ended between them, but he'd always had a soft spot for her. She was locked in his heart in a way no one before her had ever been and that was the thing that pushed him forward, inviting her to meet him for a coffee in the middle of the day to return a single guitar pick to her. He had arrived early, and though there had been a time where he was banned from just about every cafe in the Los Angeles region he managed to order his own drink and Marley's favorite without issue before choose a booth in the quietest corner of the room. He was rarely nervous but even as she approached he felt a pit drop in his stomach as he watched her, pushing the cup across the table for her as she sat. "If you changed your order, I can buy you a new one."

📲 hunter & blaine

HUNTER: hi blaine, I saw you recently put out new music, how can I find that? @privilegeblaine

[hunterclaringtonhq]

I could be better but I'm considering becoming worse

[hunterclaringtonhq]

HUNTER: Marley, hey. That's a long time to be missing that. I just moved, but I can keep an eye out for it as I'm unpacking. HUNTER: How are you?

📲 don't text him you're just gonna cry

MARLEY: hey is there any chance you've spotted my dolly parton guitar pick somewhere in your place? i don't think i've seen it since we broke up and it was a dollywood exclusive. MARLEY: no worries if not, i've just been thinking about it. @hunterclaringtonhq

[hunterclaringtonhq]

i admit i was never much of a lego kid, but yeah, yeah i would love some assistance actually.

Putting together Ikea furniture is like putting together Lego - just less fun, because you don't end up with something you can play with. D'ya need help?

[hunterclaringtonhq]

Well, some would call moving out on your own and buying/building your own furniture a move in the direction of growth, Bonnie. I acknowledge I've had it easy up to this point.

Yeah, but you do get to choose what you do in those circumstances, and letting yourself be a pampered little brat? That's all on you. But, better late than never, I suppose.

[hunterclaringtonhq]

only everyday, queen. any suggestions on how to do that?

Have you just tried being better?
