Summary
The twins leave for their first ever school camping trip, and Shane handles it exactly as well as expected (badly). Theo has packed enough emergency supplies to survive the wilderness indefinitely, Lena is mostly concerned about lip gloss logistics, and both Shane and Ilya are pretending they’re completely normal about their children being gone for an entire week.
Then the emergency phone rings less than an hour later.
Or: Lena forgets something important, Ilya goes full girl dad about it, and Shane realises all over again that the language they fought so hard to learn became something their children speak naturally.
