[ooc: Basically, this is free range for people to set up scenes with Tyler. Can be canon, crossover, whatever. There will probably be spoilery things bc I am not dealing well with the events of the last episode, this is the warning for that. Also feel free to comment oocly with an idea, and I can set something up too.]

"I should be the one to do it. You know my mom, she'd be pissed if it wasn't the funeral of the season."

It's a joke, albiet a really weak one, but a joke none the less. His mom was always so particular about parties and gatherings, no doubt she would have wanted the best for her funeral.

Her funeral.

It feels like just yesterday it was his dad's, sometimes, and then other times it feels like a lifetime ago. Back before he was a hybrid, before he even triggered the curse. Before he realized just how little control he has in life.

Before he realized no matter how hard he tries to fight back, he always seems to lose.

Matt lets out a soft sound. It could be construed as something of a laugh, but it's not, really. Carol Lockwood wasn't a perfect mother or a perfect mayor, by any means, but she was Tyler's mom. More importantly, she's been around, which was a lot more than what could be said about Matt's own mom.

And she did like having her hand in throwing those parties.

Always right down to the very last details.

There's a small pause before he leans back. "Remember when we broke that really fancy vase she loved? I thought she'd never get over that one."

"I'm pretty sure she was keeping a list of everything I broke over the years." Which was more than he liked to admit. Tyler's always been a little reckless. He jumps in, fists flying, acts first, thinks later.

Go figure that the one time he methodically planned things out, it all blew up in his face anymore.

Tyler grimaces at the thought, shooting back the rest of his glass.
