    Summary

    "Could have sworn you had a curfew at some point." Her dad chirps from the couch with a book resting in his lap.

    "You two picked the wrong person to stand guard if you're trying to enforce that again." She replies.

    His shoulders don't shake how she thought they might. It's hard to know how the jokes that used to be fair game might land now. Before the blip, teasing about the unconventional (at points, lack of) parenting Tony had adopted through the years had been fair game. Sarcasm and prodding tender spots with humour was always how she and her dad had communicated best.

    After the Blip, that doesn't feel as true anymore. The boundaries have changed and she doesn't know enough about what happened in those days to be sure of where the line has been drawn.
