Summary
"We may have our roots but we've been
Shaped by those we choose to let in
Like the branches of a tree
We may grow in different directions
But our roots will always keep us close
Like a family tree"
- Family tree by Matthew WestDespite what he claimed, there was no way Tim Bradford didn’t like or, at least, didn’t care about her.
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
OR: 5 times when Tim Bradford behaved like Tamara's father and one when he faced the reality.

Summary
She grinned, unfazed. "What? It's true. So, what's the deal? Family reunion?"
He shrugged, signaling the waitress for coffee. "No idea. She was vague about it. Said 'you'll see' when I pushed."
Lucy tilted her head, curiosity sparking in her eyes. "Huh. Mysterious. Maybe she's got big news? Like a new job or... oh, maybe she's seeing someone!"
Tim snorted. "Genny? Dating? She'd tell me if it was serious."
"Would she?" Lucy arched an eyebrow. "You two are close, but you're also... you. Mr. Protective Big Brother. She might want to ease you into it."
He considered that, stirring sugar into his coffee. Genny had dated on and off since her divorce, but nothing stuck. And yeah, maybe he had vetted a few guys a little too thoroughly. "If she's dating some loser, I'll find out soon enough."
Tim’s peaceful evening takes a nosedive when his sister’s “surprise” turns out to be the last coworker he ever wanted her dating.

Summary
Her parents don't know she's married. They don't know she's fourteen weeks pregnant. They don't even know about the promotion to sergeant. Lucy has been avoiding this conversation for months, but some secrets can't stay hidden forever—especially when her mother has opinions about everything Lucy's ever done.
A/N : I made MAJOR edits, especially in chapter 4, basically re-wrote it in the last 4 hours, so please do give it a re-read!

Summary
“It’s 2 A.M.,” Derek says. “What are you doing here?”
Stiles turns to him with raised eyebrows. “We haven’t finished Harry Potter,” he says, as if it’s obvious, and Derek just stares at him. “I mean, if you don’t want to know what happens with Fluffy and the dragon, fine. But I personally think that the plot only gets better from here."
(In which Derek and Stiles are both broken, but it takes a few paperback novels for them to realize that it makes them fit together just right.
A post-3B Canon Divergence, based on comment that said someone needs to sit Derek down on a couch and read him a nice book.)
(Updated Note: Trans Lives Matter. Obviously this was written years before we knew JK Rowling was a TERF and objectively terrible person, but I want to apologize anyways that the book used is Harry Potter. For my fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community, particularly the transgender community: I love you so much and your sexual, romantic, and gender identities are all valid. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a fool. Fuck JK Rowling.)
