tinstar: (U sure)

Thankfully, Raylan had learned after his conversation about Wynonna's Willa that his daughter was named as such, but he hadn't brought it up much for exactly that reason. A lot of cords between them ran the same and while Raylan found a bit of comfort in that, it was kinda weird.

Lucky, maybe.

Raylan had also know that Doc was married to someone named Kate, but the treads getting weaved were still something of a surprise and the Marshal's brow pinched a little with it. He had nothing against interracial relationships or marriage but the fact of that matter was he simply hadn't thought about it being a part of Doc's story. He should have, considering but there was nothing to do but shut up and learn now.

And when Henry ended, Raylan nodded with a brief look in his lap before turning his eyes back up to the gunslinger.

"Yeah, that is." A terrible thing. "One that you're not gonna haveta worry about here. If nothin' else." There weren't a lot of silver linings here in Mathis, but that was one of them and Raylan wasn't going to harp on it. He would, however, fight anyone who argued about it. Henry wasn't going to leave any of them alone to suffer and goddamnit, Raylan wasn't going to leave him to do it.

"Good name for a baby too. Sweet of Wynonna, even if she didn't know. Bit'ta your family movin' on with you.. If we don't go back, that doesn't stop her from goin' on, you know. Either of 'em. Damage is done," he huffed, not wholly sure it was damage, and not wholly sure it wasn't. Him not being there wasn't enough to stop that from happening now.

"Suppose plenty of kids grow up without fathers." He just hadn't expected his or Henry's, really, to be one of those numbers.
