AAAAAAAAAA! This was aaaaamaaaazing. I loved that Graves was reacting in a perfectly rational (okay, mostly rational) way to some hijinks that were only wacky to the people who knew what was going on. Like, idk, but I can imagine the other potential POV of the story, too, and the dichotomy cracks me up. Also the glimpse of Graves and Credence growing into a relationship that is more actively and fully consensual was lovely. I'm pulling for those two! They had a rough start, poor guys, but I think they can salvage this. All the words-using is definitely gonna help.
