John has spent a myriad wanting to tell a dad joke, but, right, the blood ward on A.L’s tomb, can’t have a kid.

And then when the last three of his underlings are challenging him, and getting pissed, and he needs to be careful, and it is this whole thing… but in walks Gideon and sets herself up perfectly and he just fucking has to take it.
