Rykah soon slipped back into the conversation, though a little subdued as he kept an eye on Jack, I know that look…. I… I saw it in myself once….. no… more than once….

At some point, Jesse and Finn joined them at the table, Jesse sitting down on Jack’s other side and swinging an arm around his shoulders. Jack leaned into him slightly, and everyone faltered in conversation, as Jesse and Jack had never gotten along wonderfully, and if Jack was leaning into Jesse, something was probably still wrong. But everyone quickly remembered that they we’re trying to keep up appearances for Jack, and resumed talking.

Rykah noted it, but kept chatting with the others,
(Ok See ya!)

After a while, Finn made breakfast, setting pancakes down in front of everyone.

Rykah smiled at him, picking one up to munch on.

It took Jesse literally putting the food in his face for Jack to start eating. Everyone needs his family looked at him with concern, because he couldn’t start that again.

Rykah let a flash of concern show but quickly shoved it away, keeping one eye on Jack.

Jack eventually shook his head when offered more. “I’m not really that hungry.” Three people began to tell him that he had to eat, but Jesse cut them all off. “You has enough, that’s fine.”

Rykah gave Jack a smile, trying his best to make things better for him.

Jack saw and smiled back, and said, “So…. when’re we leaving?”

"Leaving?" asked Rykah.

“Dog? Conversation yesterday? The twenty dollars Anna owes me?” Jack said, smirking and looking at Anna.

Rykah grinned, "I have no idea when we're leaving, but soon I hope!"

“Me too!” Jack replied, as Anna handed him his money.

Rykah grinned, his tail flicking through the bars of the chair.

“Morning kids!” Mom said, coming down the stairs.

"Morning Ma'am" said Rykah.

“You don’t have to call me ma’am, Rykah.” Mom said, smiling, and ruffling Jesse’s hair.

"Ok…" said Rykah shyly.

“My name is Lydia.” Mom said, smiling.
“You could always just call her Mom like Finn and I do.” Jesse said.

"I have a mom…" said Rykah, "So that would be a little weird for me…" he said smiling at Lydia.

“Then just go with Lydia.” Mom said, smiling and fixing herself a cup of coffee.

"Alright.." said Rykah, not sure if he was comfortable with it, but forcing himself to get over it.

Will smiled and looked at his mom for a cup of coffee.
