I am blissfully trying to pretend that Idia does care about Ortho, but perhaps like one cares for their favourite console or piece of tech - considering how he makes sure to constantly make sure Ortho’s in good condition. But y'know, there is also Idia’s SR robes (or was it Ortho’s…) where Idia attempted to go out, telling himself it was for Ortho’s sake.
I’m sure he does care…but perhaps as an attempt to ignore the glaring truth of the matter - that Real!Ortho is dead …
i’m brainstorming real titles for my WIP (no i cannot actually title it sad italian visited by his ex in bed) and one of the spit-balled titles just made me think of modern AU widower Joe grieving for Nicky and god just that brief flash of a fic concept has me ready to cry
