Blaine's Nirvana

💡I've Seen The Light!!... It Was Kinda Dull

Blaine and Shivani walk into the main dining area of Romeros hand in hand "raise your hand if you can afford to eat here not a shock guys, there's a soup kitchen with your name on it vamonos"  Blaine says "you heard the man! shoo! skedaddle!"  Don E adds "chop chop! folks.... I rea--lly don't want to have to shoot anybody in the face today"  Blaine says as they get closer and he sees the entire room filled with half dead looking zombies he knew who brought them and was not looking forward to facing him but he also decided that he would have a little fun first and Shivani was silent throughout the whole thing which truth be told worried him she seemed.... scared and the woman he knew the woman he married wasn't afraid of anything!.... and then he heard it the voice he dreaded to hear say as he breaks a roll in two and hands each piece to the person on either side of him "there they are.... that's my son and my beautiful daughter in law just look at you two you've done well and they've worked for it they've got grit"  Shivani scoff softly as she squeezes Blaine's hand in a fraction of a heartbeat as Angus continues "nothing keeps us McDonoughs down!"  Blaine mutters to himself "not even a block of cement"  Shivani looks at him slightly confused as Angus says "the well gives shape to the water"  the large group surrounding him choruses "the water gives life to the well"   Angus says as he stands "like the bubble, I'm born to rise"  and his congregation choruses as they all stand up together "so we rise"  Shivani whispers "should I be worried!?!.... I should be worried!"  as Don E says "yeah, that's not creepy"  Blaine holds back a chuckle as he stares at his father and his people with a confused expression on his face then he lets go of his wife's hand and walks over to the table where his father stands and asks "what do you want?"  Angus replies "in the dark, my one solace was when the watery skies would open and I would be fed brain-drops falling on my head and now I'd like you to perform the very same sacrament for my flock we will come here once a week, and you will feed us"  Shivani mutters to Don E who stands next to her "so we're suppose to make it rain brains!?!"  he hides a chuckle as they hear Blaine ask "and will my brothers and sisters be paying?"  Angus replies "son you don't pay for family dinner"  Shivani replies "that depends on the family!"  Angus looks at her and smiles "do you remember what you did to us!?!.... what you did to ME!?!.... all those years of abuse Blaine had to go through from both you and your "best friend"!.... it wasn't HIS fault his mother committed suicide it was YOURS!.... and you don't even care do you!?!.... how about the fact that you THREATENED my mother making my family leave the only home that we knew just so that I would never see him again and then years later turning her into a zombie out of spite!.... there was NO WAY that you could have known that I moved back to Seattle you had no idea what I looked like!.... you didn't even know my name so you had no justifiable cause to turn her except for your own ego!"  Shivani growls then she looks at the people surrounding Angus "you want food then you will WORK for it!.... whatever Blaine or Don E asks you to do you will do it or you will receive NOTHING!.... whether it's taking out the trash or doing dishes.... as long as you follow him you will get NOTHING for free!.... not here!.... not anywhere!.... am I understood!?!"  her eyes rage red as the heat from her anger rises and the congregation looks at her in fear and nods "Monday's lunch"  Blaine says "make it a standing reservation your weekly gift to the poor"  Angus replies "that all depends on what they do for us throughout the rest of the week.... I am a woman of my word Angus and I'm not about to back down just because they "belong" to you!"  Shivani says Angus smiles at her " son, daughter I forgive you.... both of you"  Blaine looks at his father incredulously and replies "you forgive us? you forgive us? I will kill you you hear me? I will kill you! I will make it hurt so you keep smiling you keep smiling, you child-abusing son of a bitch"  he rushes over ready to attack his father but stops when he feels Shivani lightly lay her hand in the center of his chest....
