growing up, abigail didn’t have much hope that her life would be all that great, or that she’d ever have a purpose. being an orphan hadn’t left her with very many options, and while she’d done what she could, she never would’ve dreamt that she would have a plot of land, a roof over her head, and a family to call her own. she never thought that she’d be so lucky.
she had never been set up for success, and she supposed that’s what infuriated her about her son’s outlook on life. admittedly, she would always feel a sense of GUILT for how he’d grown up and the horrors that he’d seen in his short life, but she TRIED. abigail tried to be a good mother, to instill good morals and behaviors and outlooks on life in her son, and she knew that he was a broody teenager, but she was determined for him to have a FAR better life than she ever did.
“ now you listen to me jack, ” she told him, voice taking on it’s typical, motherly sternness. “ maybe i don’t know better, but i do know best, and i won’t hear none of this doom and gloom nonsense ! you’re gonna make somethin’ of yourself, ya hear me ? ”
50 / for diana, from niko <3

when you left, i lost a part of me (who will?) [ ... ] come back, baby, please (come back, come back, come back, come back) 'cause we belong together
when diana had fled liberty city and relocated in los santos, there were a few things she never thought she’d be reminded of—niko was one of those things. she hadn’t known him all that well, but they’d ran in similar circles and knew of each other. even so, she’d be lying if she said ( despite the paranoia of being tracked down by the wrong people ) that there was something about seeing a familiar face that was oddly comforting.
chief, her german shepherd, seemed to remember him, too, with the dog being the reason she’d ran into him in the first place. if it hadn’t been for the dog pulling her to niko, diana, likely, wouldn’t have recognized or noticed him. but once chief got someone’s scent, he never forgot about them, and so here they were.
“ never thought i’d see ya again, ” diana said, thick liberty city accent shining in stark contrast to the los santos ones around them. “ it’s still so hard to believe… whaddya doin’ out here ? ”
“Do you want to come to dinner?” / followed by joke about abigail's cooking from john, for sadie (epilogue feels innit <3)
“ me ? ” abigail asked, pitched heightened in surprise at the question, while she simultaneously swatted at john for his very much UNWANTED remark. she didn’t think she’d ever been asked out to dinner before—and john was anything but the romantic type, typically only giving into her demands after she’d badgered him to death. and she didn’t like having to be that way, but the man never seemed to want to do things until she lit a fire under his ass and gave him no other options—he was too stubborn for his own good. but most of all, he was unromantic and never wined and dined her—not that she thought that’s what sadie was planning on doing, of course. it did her no favors to be presumptuous.
besides, it would be nice to have a night where her boys could fend for themselves. maybe a girls’ night was just what she needed. and maybe her night away would make john realize just how blessed he was to have a wife who cooked him anything at all !
“ well, ” abigial said, finally, bright smile on her lips, “ if you don’t think it’d be too much trouble… why, yes, i would love to join you for dinner, sadie, thank you. ”

“Hey, you did nothing wrong…” / for miss mary beth, from sadie <3
she knows that she didn’t, but it didn’t make the guilt subside. it hadn’t been her fault that kieran had gotten taken, tortured, and then put on display for all to see, but she couldn’t quiet the voice in her head that blamed herself, anyway. she could’ve done something and maybe it all could’ve been different. she knew that thinking about ‘what-ifs’ wasn't going to change anything, but she couldn’t just turn her brain off from them.
hearing sadie’s words of reassurance and sympathy brought mary-beth out of her thoughts. she’d been keeping to herself, not too keen on allowing others to see her grieving the loss of a man who had hardly been liked by the group as it was. she didn’t like the attention that could be brought to her from her grief, either, but it seemed as though sadie had caught her and her red-rimmed eyes gave her away.
taking quick swipes at her puffy cheeks with the backs of her hands, mary-beth let out a slightly shaky sigh. she couldn’t bring herself to meet sadie’s gaze, instead, training her eyes on the grass at her feet as she murmured, “ i know, i just… keep thinkin’ there was somethin’ i coulda done—i dunno… ”
