@ellette-giselle @mineralizedwritings @keilah-h @koshka @smiley @rae @savannah_grace2009 @loopylin @anyone-else-I’m-missing-idk*drops possible snippet of a possible scene for Leon/Riker’s 3rd book and disappears back into the shadows*
His kids could, and would, continue to grow up.
Life would fly by like a whirlwind, and time would pass.
He’d make mistakes. He’d apologize. He’d laugh and he’d cry. He’d grow even as his kids grew.
He’d depend on God to help him do his best.
A small house, Iris in his arms, kids running in and out the back door, smiling, laughing, giggling, Micah sound asleep in his crib. Peace, comfort, stability—a wife that could be who God called her to be, kids who would grow up knowing that no matter what they did, it would never change the fact that God, Iris, and Riker would love them even to the end.
They would never know the pain of having a father that didn’t love them. They would never know the pain of losing their childhood far too soon.
The cycles of shame and pain and abuse had finally, fully ended.
Maybe the pain would forever remain. Maybe he would still wake up with nightmares from time to time. Maybe he’d still suffer from flashbacks. Maybe he would still bear the scars. Maybe he would forever ache from the hole in his heart where a good earthly father was meant to be. Maybe he would still have to battle generational curses that had held his family captive for decades.
Maybe he’d never fully heal.
But how wonderful it was to finally know that God was strong enough to carry even Riker’s most broken pieces.
“I can’t even begin to imagine how much pain was still in Germany…but God showed you so much and taught you even more…why do you not desire to go back?”
Riker met Iris’ curious, questioning gaze. He pressed a gentle kiss to her lips, interlaced his fingers with hers, pressed his forehead against her forehead, and drew her nearer to himself, dropping his voice to a soft whisper. “…I’m home.”

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

Hey, should we bring the Topic of the Week back?
I know Kathleen probably doesn’t have time to run it anymore, but can we create our own Topic of the Week?
"You need French Toast."
YES!!!

ok but in all seriousness I would do all the things I never got to do.
like teleporting breadno I’m kidding, stuff like read a book or watch a movie people say I’d like but I never got around to seeing, draw some, finish that story I’ve been writing, stuff like that.

I tried listening to it, and it was good, but not really my style. This is what I’ve had on repeat while cleaning up the currant draft of LTBL
It’s so good!
