[And that's why their entire dinner spread is other breakfast foods and not a thing that's traditionally considered Easter, except well. Eggs.]

Great. Eat up.

[She plants herself at her usual spot at the table and picks up her fork.]

[bigboyvibes]

You really didn't have to do all of this, you know?

[He nods towards both the food and cute Easter baskets.]

Thanks.

[yesdingus]

I know. I wanted to. I don't really know why. Just...fixated on it this week and then --

[She waves her hand around.]

Thought it might be interesting to start our own tradition.

[bigboyvibes]

I'm not much for holidays.

[Robin of all people knows that. Holidays just aren't the same anymore and they're constantly lacking.]

But it'll be good for Max, yeah?

[yesdingus]

And Eddie. And all the kids, really.

[Hopefully.]

[bigboyvibes]

I know damn well Eddie will like it.

[Eddie literally likes anything that involves food. Especially candy. ]

Eleven too.

[yesdingus]

[She smiles, digging into her food.]

Figured we could take Max and Eddie their baskets later today.

[bigboyvibes]

[Steve laughs a little. ]

I think they would both really appreciate that. More so Eddie.

[yesdingus]

Yeah, probably.

[She laughs, too.]

[bigboyvibes]

I really hope we can get him out of there soon.

[Before something horrible actually happens.]

[yesdingus]

Yeah, me too.

[bigboyvibes]

Especially now that he won't have Max.

[This has been a concern for Steve for a good while. ]

[yesdingus]

We can take turns going up there like we have been all along. He won't be alone.

[bigboyvibes]

Yeah.

[Steve is just worried that the cops will try to take Eddie eventually. ]

[yesdingus]

[She's worried about that, too. She reaches out and squeezes his hand.]

[bigboyvibes]

[Steve gives a half, weak smile. ]

We can't let anything happen to him.

[yesdingus]

We won't.

[bigboyvibes]

I just want him the hell out of there. I don't trust the hospital with him much.

[As stupid as that sounds. ]

[yesdingus]

I take it as a good sign that they let Max move into his room to begin with. Someone there must know the accusations are false.

[bigboyvibes]

Pretty sure that was Nancy just being threatening.

[yesdingus]

Yeah, maybe. [She's not sure that alone would do it, regardless of how threatening Nancy is.]

[bigboyvibes]

She's pretty damn good at it.

[yesdingus]

She is. I'm just not sure the hospital administrative staff finds her as scary as we do. [Because if they were scared of her, they'd probably call the police and have her barred from the hospital.]

[bigboyvibes]

Who knows.
