Summary
“Okay. Um. My parents are expecting me back home for Christmas.”
“… that’s it?” Courtney asks, scoffing. “Okay, so? We won’t break anything while you’re gone if that’s what you’re worried about.”
“That’s not—” Mandy starts, before she sighs. “They want to meet you. Both of you.”Mandy brings Robert and Courtney home for Christmas for the first time to meet her parents. And her siblings. And their kids. Somehow it's even more chaotic than a day at the SDN office with the Z-team which is, you know, saying something.
Established relationship, alternating POV.

Summary
Robert thought that his life couldn't get any more stressful.
He was wrong. Very very wrong, and it was only the beginning of his lifelong troubles.
But maybe he could have a couple of shiny consolation prizes at the end, if he played his cards right and didn't fold.

Summary
Robert rubbed his temples. "Alright, polyamory. But how does that work, exactly?"
Malevola sighed, then leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees. "Alright, dumbass. Basic breakdown. Communication. Honesty. Boundaries."
"But like. I don't get it. You just get to...date and fuck whoever?"
"You're thinking way too black and white, idiot."
Sonar sighed. "That'd be the dream though. Infinite puss."
Malevola ignored him. "It's a lot more complicated than monogamous relationships. It's all about needs, desires, insecurities."
"But people are different. What if it doesn't match up?"
"Then you talk it out. Figure out compromises. Decide if you can meet those needs—or if you aren't compatible."
Robert stared at his phone. His thumb brushed over the background; Visi holding Beef.
"So. Now that we've educated you, what are you gonna do?"
"...I don't know."
