It made ME cry, that shit hits way harder than you'd expect. Don't worry, they'll be fine long term, though.

The fact they were a big factor in the divorce + him quitting his job at Trinity to go teach in a college because being around Lynn all day long is excruciating

Cy sees Olivia more as a minion/pet/mini-him than a potential target, Lynn doesn't have anything to worry about.

I did! You can read a part of it here. https://x.com/null_backdoorho/status/1773077536336994320

She doesn't report him, and he stops going for teens after the divorce anyway.

Honestly, even if he didn't go to prison for it, he'd be absolutely miserable and live the rest of his life just a shell of his former self. Lynn is everything to him.

The difference is history and circumstances. For the Kate AU, you have to keep in mind Cy never met Lynn in college, didn't become as socially developed, and key point here, never was introduced to kink. Even if Cy has a pretty strong libido across most universes, the reason he starts cheating on Lynn is because they were doing chastity kink play and he got frustrated at the fact denying her meant denying himself too, in a way. This version of Cy isn't kinky, doesn't see cheating as a "game" between Kate and him, so when she asks him to quit sleeping around if he wants to go steady with her, it's not a very big demand— they're not in a D/s relationship! As for the Divorce AU, it's less that Lynn threatened to leave, and more that she just up and decided to leave one day because Cy wasn't taking her emotional needs seriously, the cheating was just one part of it.

He'd probably be weirded out by how joyful and expressive canon Cy is, and he'd probably be a little envious, but also very glad he ended up with his Kate.

While Mac and I have played with the idea of her also getting with Cy because it would be very funny, ultimately for dramatic purposes she doesn't fit in that AU. She'd probably be off somewhere getting therapy, somewhat reconnecting with her mother and probably getting herself an OK Dom after looking for a while.

I think it's the kind of thing he'd have a weird horny dream about once and then dismiss.

Cy's disinterested in women he isn't personally familiar with, so Isabelle and Lynn might be the only combination he'd like to see fuck out of curiosity.

Outside of that one comic where he punishes her for smoking weed behind his back, no. He's not big on substance abuse.

In the Baby AU where they have a kid, they named their daughter Olivia!

Cy tries to stay organized and not double-book, but if it happened he'd probably tell the girl he had an unforeseen emergency and go to his date with Lynn.

She removes it and gives it back to Cy, as a keepsake. He definitely doesn't feel extremely emotional about it.

No but I could see Cy messing with Eden's dick to make sure it never gets hard again.

Oh yeah, one of her conditions for going steady in that AU is them being exclusive. Cy relents.

It could happen too, and if Kate ever found out she'd find some way to justify it ("it was a long time ago, he's changed since then").

Lynn strikes me as the kind to enjoy doing laundry, so she probably does it more often than Cy, while he's more likely to be the one cooking because he likes that. They're both fairly neat people, but Lynn does get a little messy whenever she's extremely depressed so I think Cy picks up the slack more often. As for cooking- usually it's every other day, but I could see Cy prepare one week's worth of food because he's in That Kinda Mood from time to time. The times when Lynn cooks, they kinda like leaning into it a little and play tradwife, it's both horny and weirdly cute. No gardening, I think their backyard and frontyard are quite bare for most of their lives up until the moment they retire, after which they start gardening to keep busy at home.

As for Isabelle, she sees them (or just Cy) at least once a week, usually to have sex with Cy, but quite frequently she'll be there to hang out, either to have dinner/watch a documentary, or to go on an outright date with either Cy or both Foresters. On much rarer occasions, she goes on "dates" with Lynn where Lynn will take her shopping, or go to the Spa, usually as a treat after exams. They like having a little girl time together on occasions. It makes Isabelle crush on Lynn all that much harder (Lynn’s just very happy to be taking care of this lost puppy).

Me and Mac had a fit of laughter when he remarked that Cy would probably have been seen as a feminist had he been born a century earlier, simply because he likes seeing women go into STEM.

She's better than him at handling social situations with other adults. Better at dealing with anger sometimes too.
