[ he remembers much more than alek does, that's for sure.
neither of them remember as much as adam does, but alek realized a long time ago that ... maybe that was a good thing. before adam came into their lives, he'd wondered before who his father was. it's a helpless thing, when you're five and everyone's drawing their families and it hasn't occurred to him why there isn't a father alongside his mother, like the rest of the drawings made by his classmates. now he wishes he'd never known.
alek is comforted by the honesty in ethan's answer, even as his chest clenches painfully with the reminder. he can picture it vividly if he tries, adam showing up on their doorstep that new years eve. ] Yeah, I do. More than I ever want to think about it, too. [ his shoulders tense in spite of himself, and it's around this time he wishes he and ethan were back at the bar drinking something. ] I wonder where he ended up.
[ if anywhere. he can hope he ceased to exist along with the rifts, but he has a feeling they're not that lucky. ]
