| Louis Bloom - Husband
|
|
Louis Bloom started complementing Pond on her "workout routine" at PD meetings, eventually asking her out for drinks, which she accepted. On June 5th, 2022, they got drunk on the beach together and bonded over how similar their lives were, as both were trying to move on from past lovers — Novah Walker for Bloom and Sexton Hardcastle for Pond — and their trauma. Jakka Romano arrived and tried to hit Bloom with his car then eventually tried to snipe both Bloom and Pond, but accidentally hit Pond's dog River. After getting River to the vet Pond and Bloom vent to a pride parade that was going on, they continue to be extremely flirtatious and generally hit it off. They ended the night at Pond's house.
They later meet on duty at the courthouse, and they had a conversation that steered into drug talk specifically about cocaine. Pond had cocaine on her and showed Bloom. Bloom then showed the stash of pills he had in his house. And then went to the observatory off-duty and did the cocaine and pills together and talked about each other's drug use. They opened up more about their past trauma.
After Pond had OD on metamorphine, Bloom initially blamed himself for her OD. The two had a lengthy conversation regarding their drug use, where Bloom expressed his fear that he would have to go back to suffering alone if Pond ever overdosed again. They also mention how they are one of the only people in each other's lives who don't want to change one other or "fix" the other and rather accept each other as is. At the end of the night, Bloom entrusted Pond with more metamorphine at her request but made her promise to not do it alone.
Pond and Bloom had a conversation at the top of Maze Bank tower where Pond said that even being previously non-monogamous ever since she started seeing Bloom she hadn't and hadn't wanted to see other people. Bloom says that he reciprocates those feeling for Pond as well and they embrace.
Pond and Bloom were suspended by Jeffrey Bundy for 48 hours for on-duty drug use. Bundy assaulted Bloom on multiple occasions due to his relationship with Pond and his perception that Bloom was to blame for Pond's drug use. Later that day Bloom was shot twice in the head by Terrance "TJ" Walker. When he woke up the next day from the ICU, he had lost all memory between his attempted assassination by Novah Walker and Julio Thomas and his assassination attempt by TJ. This means he had completely forgotten Pond outside of their previous professional relationship.
Pond and Bloom were together for most of his recovery, Pond would try to update him on what had happened in the month he had forgotten. Their relationship took a backseat for Bloom he was fresh from his "breakup" with Novah. However, they grew close again quickly as Bloom could see that Pond cared for him and that he must off cared for her.
After Pond was sniped by Michael Simone Bloom was able to return the favor and stayed with and supported Pond. After the surgery for Pond's jaw to be repaired, Bloom and Pond went on a metal detecting date in the windfarms. Once this date concluded Bloom and Pond went to the PawnHub where they met with an employee Liam Park where he referred to Pond as Bloom's girlfriend, in which they mutually agreed to label their relationship. [1]
Pond and Bloom would continue to date for almost a year after that. Their relationship had some highs and lows while they figured out how to express their feelings for each other. Bloom struggles with using the word love due to some childhood trauma with his father. They decided to tell each other they were 'really cool' to replace the word love. Some time in early May, Pond told Shelby Lane about her plans to propose to Bloom. Shelby decided to be a puppet master and ask Bloom if he'd ever propose to Pond. Shelby and Bloom then made a plan for Bloom to propose to Pond first. On May 25th, Bloom took Pond on a date night where he proposed and she said yes. [2]
They were engaged for three months where they made plans to get married on the Sanguine Isle due to Delver Lee owing Pond a life debt. Due to the conflict between the main land and the isle, their wedding was forced to be canceled by High Command just a few days before its planned date. They decided to throw together a small wedding at the observatory with just their closest friends on August 19th.
Bloom and Pond would continue to work as the shift 2 command duo for the PBSO for a few years before Bloom would eventually find the dream home he always wanted to buy her for them to live in out of state. There they would retire on their beach farm house to live out the rest of their days.
