I've been settling for you since the day we met, haven't I? And you've exceeded all my expectations.
It's not that I...NEED...that. It's not about replacing something I lost; I lost that a long time ago. It's more like extending you recognition you deserve. If that makes sense.
i never really thought that i'd necessarily want a kid of my own. kind of thought i'd be a shit dad on top of everything else. but if i can do right by you then i'm good with that. and i've thought of you as mine for awhile now too.
And I didn't have a childhood, so I suppose you have a point.
So you can feel free to continue to make plans to intimidate whoever I share a cake with on Christmas Eve, or whatever else you might have up your sleeve for the future.

why is the cake sharing important?
no subject
It's the Japanese custom. Cake is traditionally eaten with family or friends, and the holiday itself is for lovers.
