Perfect way for them to meet Rocco. And the rope... genius!
Heh. They could have gotten into some legal trouble if Rocco had stayed unhappy about the MacManus rehab plan. That's at least kidnapping or something. I've never been a big Rocco fan. He just seems such a weird thing for them to have so close to their lives.
just for a few months," Do people actually say these things?
Yeah. It usually goes "Just for a few months mom. Until your hip gets better" or "Until you get over the case of pheumonia" or whatever it is.
It's easier than saying "Look mom, you're going into a nursing home and you're never coming out, you old bat. Never, never never."
"Just for a few months" sounds so much less final.
And AWWWW Murphy wants to find someone. And he doesn't want his brother to be left behind. That's sweet.
One thing I've worked hard on in this fic is to show that things go both ways. That murphy takes care of connor. Connor takes care of murphy.

I'm trying to keep them balanced, or nearly so.
