[ She says, you know?, and sadly, Baby can't say he does. He wishes he did. ]
I'd like to meet him, of course. He's important to you, and it's important to you. And I'm glad he's here now, if it makes you feel better. You deserve to have everything.
It's hard to say what's going to happen when we leave here, but for what it's worth, I don't want to lose you when we do.
Coming here left so much of what I am, who I'm surrounded by off the table, and the two of you getting on would mean the world to me. I still have to talk to him about... I mean, everything. But I wanted you to know.
[ Damn, well, there's some pressure. Baby has to wonder what would happen if they didn't get along, if, somehow, they were complete opposites. Baby is more than willing to make an effort, though.
The part where she talks about going home, well. It's not something he's yet willing to think about. ]
Do you think there is a chance we wouldn't get along? What should I know about him?
( the last thing she wants is for him to feel as if he has something to prove, which, upon actually meeting</> alec, he may feel necessary. but she trusts that the softness she'd taken to him, the fact that she'd let him in would be indication enough to her brother that he needn't keep his defenses up so high.
though, how she hoped alec would respond versus how he truly would could be of two entirely different stories. )
He's protective, but I don't want you to worry. Nothing is going to change the way I feel about you, Alec is... ( a pause in her messages, then. she adores her brother, more than anything, but he did have a bit of an unwelcoming disposition toward others. he was the stern where she was too soft—there were times, too, where she should have followed his lead.
she trusts her instincts that this, that baby, wouldn't be one of those times. )
It takes a bit with him. He means well, he's one of the best men I know, Baby.
[ Baby doesn't mean to read between the lines so much, but from her text, he can tell that, possibly, getting approval from her brother might be a bit of a hard task. But it's one Baby is happy to take on. ]
( then again, she doesn't really know how to properly express that he'd be more likely to end up with an arrow betwixt his eyes than anything else. she'll spare him that— )
I don't plan on making you go it alone, anyway, and if I'm there he'll be a lot less on edge. Just don't expect a hug. ( like... ever. )

Yeah? Kisses too, I hope. I don't give them out to just anyone, after all.
