 Yancy's always been the sort of unattainable older guy that Chuck grew up unable to really be friendly with, let alone anything else. He was more of a parent to Raleigh and Jaz than a big broth, at least while they're in school, and Chuck was barely friends with them. 

Sort of, yeah, and he's a little surprised Yancy's still speaking to him after the fights he and Raleigh got into once or twice. 

They reconnected after Chuck got into college and moved into an apartment close to campus. He hangs out with the Beckets, sometimes collectively and sometimes individually. 

And he and Yancy are close enough to text each other about personal crap (like girls who want to invite you to her uncle's funeral for the fourth date) and for Yancy to help get Chuck into bars and drink it out.

Chuck's always been way too young for him to fuck around with in any kind of way. He's younger even than Raleigh, and it shows, though sometimes Yancy wonders if Raleigh isn't mentally on Chuck's level with the amount of fights they get in.

Still, the kid seems to settle when he gets older and they get a little closer, a little friendlier.

Enough so that Yancy picks him up, and takes him to a local bar and winks at the girl behind the counter, and Chuck isn't ID'd once.

"Cheers," he says sourly, holding up his beer, "to the worlds most awkward impending conversation ever."
