... I'm gonna be really annoying when they leave.

[skepticalities]

I know, Peter.

[onlyoneof]

... sorry.

[skepticalities]

Hey, it's okay. I understand.

[onlyoneof]

I'm less stressed now, though.

[skepticalities]

[cracks a bit of a smile.]

Good. That's . . . good, I'm glad to hear that.

[onlyoneof]

... I should've told you.

[skepticalities]

. . . it's okay.

[onlyoneof]

It's not, I'm an idiot.

[skepticalities]

It's a sensitive subject, Peter. It's really fine.

[onlyoneof]

I named her after my son. I really hope someone punched me in the face for that.

[skepticalities]

Don't beat yourself up.

[onlyoneof]

I bet I didn't tell anyone either. Just stubbornly insisted on the name until Olivia agreed.

[skepticalities]

You've told me.

. . . tell your dad. At some point.

[onlyoneof]

Walter doesn't need to know.

[skepticalities]

He's your father.

[onlyoneof]

And I'm not going to tell him he had a grandson but he was erased from existence. He's lost enough people already.

[skepticalities]

. . . okay.

[onlyoneof]

[sits down and rubs his eyes]

[skepticalities]

. . .

I'm sorry.

[onlyoneof]

... I think I haven't quite handled it.

[skepticalities]

[takes the soup off the hot plate, putting it in a couple bowls.]

Do you . . . wanna talk about it?

[onlyoneof]

... I don't know.

...

Let's eat.

[skepticalities]

[sits down at the desk, setting the bowls down.]

. . . okay.

[onlyoneof]

[takes a bowl and eats quietly]
