Altair: What has this world come to? My boyfriend and my daughter ganging up on me. Such a tragic affair. [laughing]

Sirius: It will be good for you.

Altair: Hey! For you maybe. You two just harassed me the whole night.

Sirius: It’s for your own good.

Altair: Okay, okay. Let’s not start this again. Harassment aside…  I guess tonight did go nicely. You two seemed to get along.

Sirius: I think that went well.

Altair: You call that “well”?

Sirius: [laughs] It’s refreshing to have someone else on my side around.

Altair: What do you mean by that? I’m on your side. [pouting]

Sirius: I mean you’re stubborn enough for two people and Provence helps balance the scales.

Provence: [whispering] You’re on my side aren’t you?

Sirius: [whispering back] One-hundred and ten percent.

Provence: So you can make it happen?

Sirius: It may be tricky. If there’s one thing I’ve learned about your mom these past few years, it’s that she won’t let things happen until she’s ready. No convincing her otherwise.

Provence: But if we both continue to bug her–

Altair: For berry’s sake I’m sitting right here!

Altair: Oh berry… please… you don’t have to answer that. 

Provence: I just want to know if I’m getting any siblings anytime soon.

Altair: Provence, please.

Provence: It’s time to face the music, mom. I’m more than halfway to 10. I need a sister before I get into the double digits. 

Altair: You know it doesn’t work like that, right?

Provence: You know you’re not getting any younger, right?

                                                                        “Wait ‘til the world is mine…
                                                      Visions I vandalize…
                            Cold in my kingdom size….”

Coming December 2018

Sirius: Or you could just live here.

Altair: Sirius…

Sirius: Why not?

Altair: It’s not like I come just by myself. Provence would be here too.

Sirius: Don’t act like I don’t know that.

Altair: Do you really understand how big this is? It means you’re in it for the long haul…

Sirius: I’ve already been ready for a while. I’ve just been waiting for you to catch up. 

Altair: You should at least meet her first… you might change your mind once reality sets in.

Sirius: Have a little faith in me. I’m not going to change my mind that easily, so stop acting like you’re going to get rid of me. I love you, Altair.

Altair: I-I [deep breath] I love you too.

Altair: Do you give up?

Sirius: I’m raising my white flag.

Altair: Good. While you’re there… I have something to tell you.

Sirius: What is it?

Altair: I’m moving here…

Sirius: Are you really? 

Altair: Yeah… I’ve already done the transfer paperwork for Provence… I’m just waiting to hear back from the apartment I applied for.
