[Ty/Ollie] Penthouse Living
It wasn't, Ollie thought grudgingly, a bad view - the blue of Lake Michigan as far as the eye can see, almost like an ocean. Of course, it was July; give it six months and it was going to be white and gray desolation as far as the eye could see. He'd lost his mind, obviously.
Though it wasn't as if there was a good way to say no. Ty had tolerated California - he'd never liked it as well as Chicago - but he'd stuck San Diego out until a couple of years past Ollie's eventual retirement from the Navy. With Elisha past retirement age himself and Ty being the only one interested...well, it did have a feeling of inevitability.
"Why don't you and Chris go explore Michigan Ave.," he said to Ellie. "We're just going to obsess over where your dad's blu-ray collection should go, so you're not going to miss anything here."
Besides, he was getting a feeling from the occasional sidelong looks that Ty wanted to ask him how we was handling the fact that Elisha was about three miles away.
