Per Sigma's suggestion, Delta's prompting, and Omega's invitation, tonight is the first night Maine is welcomed back into the lives of the Ais. Dinner is set for an hour after Maine is due to arrive, giving him plenty of time to socialize, and there are board, card, and video games out in the family room for before dinner if needed and after dinner indeed. Everything is ready for the friend to be welcomed back by a joyful family.

"It's more than a good space," Delta smiles. "I love it. So much. I think I'm happy here. Ready to make a real life."

[ambitious_muse]

"Yeah?" Because working a real job isn't enough of a real life?

...no. Delta deserves to be proud of this.

"How's your office?"

"Smithson was replacing the storage shelves at work, so now I have a set of shelves for components. And I want to get a few more lamps and desks."

It's a very busy area he needs to work on. "This... really feels like a place to life my life out. Raise this family. Find something beyond it. That's a great feeling. Not trapped by the past. The memories."

"It sounds like a lucky find," he says. "Kind of like this place. It's so great to be away from all of that."

It's part of why he moved out. He wanted space and security all his own. That doesn't mean he isn't grateful, though, that Delta has found that for himself.

"Your anniversary is coming up," delta notes. "I am proud of you. Relationships are hard and you have stuck to it through all. I almost want to give you a gift. Is that something people do?"

[ambitious_muse]

"It hasn't been easy," he admits. "But. I love him. It's going to work.

"I don't think you're supposed to give people that for their anniversary. That's for the couple themselves."

[protective_logic]

"Oh," Delta grins. "Well, what if I just give you a gift for the apartment? I saw a nice set of takeout menus you would love."

He's teasing, of course. Sigma's gotten far better.

[ambitious_muse]

"I do love takeout," he teases right back, "but didn't you give me that set when I moved out? Or was that Omega?"
