As for Tobias’s old coworkers on the police force, it takes them all while to notice. Darren doesn't have much to do with them anymore, after all. It was a long time before he could look at Max or Sally and not want to punch either one of them in the face. Sometimes he still gets the urge towards Max but that's just normal, really.

But he's there one night after work, chatting with Greg, when Sally walks in and immediately notices the ring on his finger. It's a simple white gold band with an odd mark on it that she can't make out. Normally she wouldn't care, but the position of the ring - on Darren’s left hand, ring finger - stops her in her tracks.

"You got married!" she says.

"Yes," Darren says tensely. "I did."
