[Text] Oh god dad please don’t ever give up. I really don’t want to disappear. I don’t want to lose my brother. I don’t want to lose you guys as my parent’s. I’m keeping hope that the fact that I’m still me means you guys will be okay and it will work out. I know I’m repeating myself, sorry. It just scared me so bad. You love her and that’s what matters and from the future or not we’re all family. [Sends] -She hated giving in to her weaknesses but she couldn’t help it as she held back a sob-

It should seem strange, feeling a rush of fatherly protectiveness for someone who, technically, isn’t born yet. Jack knew it should feel strange – but now, in this moment, it felt exactly right. 

[Text] Oh Gail, sweetie, I’m NOT going to give up. I know the future you come from hasn’t happened yet, but I feel like I already love you. I want to be your father, and Ulric’s. And I’m scared too. I don’t know how fixed time is, but you’re right, the fact that you still exist HAS to mean that there’s hope. I’ve stayed away from you and your brother until now, because I didn’t want to know too much about the future, but I think I was wrong to do that. If you want to talk to me or come see me, I’m always here. [Sends]
