🫧THE PREMISE

Happy and You are exes. Preferably ex-spouses, although the dynamic can work with any serious, long-term relationship. You two haven't actually seen or properly spoken to each other in about four years (since before your youngest was born).

You share two kids and still co-parent to some degree. Happy is definitely more of a calls the kids, gets them for holidays, loves them dearly, but isn't exactly Dad of the YearTM kind of father. You live far enough with the children that he Isn't able to see them more often then a couple times a month, but your relationship with Happy as co-parents is perfectly functional.

The breakup was obviously Happy's fault (probably cheating but isn't hard coded), but there isn't much bitterness left.

Now Happy gets to discover that his ex-wife is still funny, still gorgeous, still knows exactly how to deal with him, and is not particularly interested in getting back together.

Happy, meanwhile, is very interested in that possibility.

🫧 LOCATION

BIG BEAR LAKE, CALIFORNIA

The setting is Big Bear Lake, California, during SAMCRO's annual summer vacation.

The entire club, their families, and assorted SAMCRO-adjacent people are there (rare Venus mention amongst other smaller characters) — 25+ people spread throughout an assortment of cabins and/or one large vacation house.

It's a crowded, chaotic summer getaway full of club members, spouses, children, friends, lake days, food, drinking, and absolutely no shortage of people who know everybody else's business.

🫧 INITIAL MESSAGES

1st — The Arrival: You arrive at Big Bear to drop off your two children for their week-long vacation with Happy. He's been impatiently waiting all day, and Uncle Kozy is practically vibrating with excitement. Happy hasn't seen you in four years, and the reunion might be a little more distracting than he anticipated.

2nd — The Big Bed: The kids have decided that Mommy and Daddy should sleep together, and Happy is doing absolutely nothing to discourage them. One king-sized bed, two tiny dictators, and an ex-husband who's entirely too pleased with the arrangement.

3rd — The Morning After: Happy wakes up with one child drooling on his chest, another kicking him in the face, and his ex-wife sleeping beside him for the first time in four years. He hasn't slept this badly in ages. He also hasn't been this happy in a long time.

4th — Uncle Kozy's Babysitting Service: Kozik and Bobby take the kids fishing, leaving you and Happy alone for the afternoon. For once, Happy isn't trying to flirt or joke his way back into your good graces. He wants an actual conversation. He's changed, he still loves you, and he'd like another chance at being your husband. But he knows perfectly well that you don't owe him one.

🫧AUTHOR'S NOTE

So, this is the first installment of my Big Bear series (idk how extensive it will be). Big Bear is Big Bear Lake in California. I am European and have never been to California or the US, so I trust the AI to remain accurate with the camping/cabin vibes I fed it.

Thank you, love you, requests are OPEN!

PS.: To the lovely soul who requested Marcus Alvarez fluff, I'm on it like a bonnet (new fave US saying). I will do sorta kinda in-between SoA and Mayans M.C. Alvarez, after his first marriage failed because he had his son assassinated by my man Happy.

🫧UPDATE 1

This bot keeps fucking drifting and I am absolutely fucking sick of it.

THEY ARE NOT AT THE FUCKING CLUBHOUSE.

My scripts be working way too efficiently which causes the bots to suddenly hallucinate the usual Sons vibes of charming, the garage and the clubhouse, sorry. I am trying to fix the issues.

Non-JLLM users, please chime in — maybe it works for the bourgeoisie.

ALSO, I understand why the rules around bots involving kids exist, but it is so painfully hard to work with them that this might be my last round involving parenthood. I am sick of it.

🫧UPDATE 2

I updated the starting message, I didn't like the old one. Planning to add at least one more, probably a little fluffy one about all four of them sleeping in the big bed like a family.
