Emily Gastright: I’m scared to jinx this
Emily Gastright: But I’ve also wanted to create this group for so long, and now there’s finally a reason to do it!!!!!! And I can’t wait a single second longer
Dean Gastright: LOL
Eli Gastright: I love the way your new name looks, chere
Emily Gastright: <3
Emily Gastright: Me too. It’s the bestest <3 Anyway, LEO AND SADIE [wow emoji] That KISS
Tippi Mills: Calling that a kiss is like calling the Sistine Chapel ‘home decor’.
Liaden O’Brien: Small wonder. It’s been SUCH a long time coming.
Dean Gastright: She sure did run out of there fast, though. Tim, have you heard from her?
Tim Stewart: Yes, and I’m not breaking any of her confidences, but she’s embarrassed, guys. The fact that it happened at all is a lot for her to deal with, but the fact that it happened in front of you all is really playing on her mind. So I know this doesn’t need to be said, but still, go easy on her.
Emily Gastright: Of course [sad face] Bless her, she doesn’t have to feel embarrassed
Emily Gastright: It made my wedding day even better
Tim Stewart: I know - but making a huge deal of it will make her pull back. I know her.
Dean Gastright: We won’t. And I don’t know what Leo’s feeling right now, but he wanted to be left alone after she bolted.
Eli Gastright: I checked in on him via text earlier. He was very short and to the point when he replied.
Liaden O’Brien: I just keep wondering where they can go from here. In our dearest wishes, they fall into each other’s arms and live happily ever after. The reality is, they fell into each other’s arms and freaked out.
Emily Gastright: I can’t believe that that’s it. That nothing else is going to happen. I know for a fact now that happily ever afters exist. They need theirs. I NEED them to have theirs. Especially since there’s no good reason why they shouldn’t have it
Tippi Mills: I get it. The urge to meddle is so strong for me, too, but I’m with Tim here. This needs to be something they handle themselves
Eli Gastright: You’re right, Tip. I mean, it’d serve him right after all of his ‘benevolent meddling’ if we did the same thing to him, but this is too important to fuck around with.
Tippi Mills: [GIF of man pointing upwards with the word ‘THAT’ glowing underneath]
Dean Gastright: It’ll happen, guys. For Christ’s sake, If I can have my happy ending, Leo’s definitely getting his. Let’s not forget, SHE kissed HIM.
Emily Gastright: And how…
Emily Gastright: That has to mean something, right?
Emily Gastright: I’ve always said, it’s not just Leo with feelings
Liaden O’Brien: Let’s pick this conversation up at brunch. I have some thoughts.
Emily Gastright: What kind of thoughts? Tell
Liaden O’Brien: I will, Mrs G. Over maple syrup soaked waffles and a decent cup of Earl Grey.
Emily Gastright: You’ve got yourself a deal
