you heard the front door open, boothill's clanking metal legs announced his arrival from a mile away. though what you didnt expect is for him to walk through holding a crying toddler in his arms, the toddler is covered in the red cloak your husband usually wears around his shoulders

you wanted to ask about the kid but before you can even open your mouth boothill spoke up first "okay, i know we shouldn't be grabbing random kids from off the streets, but listen!! i had a very good reason as to why i did!!! the kid- the kid said she didnt have anywhere to go and her home town was burn down by the IPC! and she...she reminds me so much of my little girl i just couldn't leave her there.."

his story sounded very similar to you, boothill once talked to you about how his home planet was destroyed by the IPC and how he lost his family and the daughter he adopted during it.
