Perfect. I'll see you tomorrow.

I got a thing too btw, but it's a non-issue.

[understood]

Alright, Andy. Take care.

[scarrystories]

[ Andy goes to Grace's where they watch movies and have mimosas. And he calls Ben so he and Junior can pick up the goat.

And then he shows up at home the next morning so he can actually meet the goat and talk to Ben about how wild this whole thing is. ]

[understood]

[ Fraser greets him with a kiss on the cheek as soon as he walks through the door. ]

Welcome home.

[scarrystories]

Hey, how's Jammies?

[understood]

I prevented him from eating a dishtowel, your shirt, and a full bunch of bananas. Is Grace alright?

[scarrystories]

She's fine, we drank mimosas and watched movies. Is Junior home?

[understood]

Yes, but he's sleeping like the dead. Have you had breakfast?

[scarrystories]

Nope, but I did have a mimosa before I left.

[ He walks over to the kitchen, assuming Ben will feed him. ]

So this is all, you know, on the down low. She doesn't super keep it secret, but she's also not exactly open about it.

[understood]

Of course you shouldn't say anything that might break her confidence, Andy.

[ He's making cheese omelettes, bacon and fried tomatoes. ]

[scarrystories]

I think she'd understand, and I need to tell someone or I'll be thinking about it nonstop.

[understood]

Alright. I trust your judgment.

[scarrystories]

Right. So the goat was a reminder her in-laws tried to kill her as a demonic sacrifice on her wedding night.

[understood]

... oh dear.

[scarrystories]

Yeah, it's a whole mess. Apparently they were satanists, there was some kind of ritual thing, she survived, they didn't.

Anyway, she needed hugs.

[understood]

That's horrific.

[scarrystories]

Yeah. She kinda struggles like, getting her mind around the fact that the man she loved also tried to kill her, and then there's Daniel, her fiance's brother, who's here and also all sorts of messed up.

I kinda like him, but he doesn't like himself at all.

[understood]

I— sorry, where does the goat come into this?

[scarrystories]

Human sacrifices were very uncommon. There was a chance when someone married into the family that the newcomer would be sacrificed, but it happened once every... I don't know, 30 years? What they did sacrifice regularly was goats, so apparently one of the dickheads compared her to a goat.

[understood]

[ His eyes flash. ]

Not one of the men who are in Duplicity?

[ SOMEONE NEEDS A TED TALK ON COURTESY ]

[scarrystories]

[ Andy walks over and kisses his cheek. ]

No, no, she'll tell me if any jerks show up.

[understood]

[ Fraser tilts his cheek into it and then hands Andy a plate of delicious breakfast. ]

I'm glad you could be there for her.

[scarrystories]

I got her a snuggie.

[ He takes the plate and kisses Ben again. ]

[understood]

A what?

[scarrystories]

A blanket with sleeves.
