you’re not very good at this, are you? you can come out.

how about you be perceptive with finding us a job instead of worrying about how many spoons of sugar i put in my tea.

[‍‍ ‍‍‍‍ ‍‍𝕷𝙾͟𝙲𝙺𝚆𝐎𝙾𝙳 ｡ @haunts1ght]

i think it's called being perceptive.

[ ‍  ‎ 𝚌 ┈ a͟rlyle ‎ ‍  ‎ ׅ @clairvoidace]

not really. my partner keeps putting me on the spotlight &. singing praises about my abilities to everyone else even when i specifically ask him not to.

a bit early to be sensing ghosts.

i counted four spoons of sugar you dumped into your cup the other day. you have a problem.

that must’ve been the type 3 ghost we (you) have locked away in the basement.

[‍‍ ‍‍‍‍ ‍‍𝕷𝙾͟𝙲𝙺𝚆𝐎𝙾𝙳 ｡ @haunts1ght]

... 😐 fine, i suppose i'm quite fond of it. but you certainly have a habit of using all our sugar in turn.

name one time you haven’t mentioned tea on one of our .. how do you say it ﹖ expeditions.

now that's an exaggeration.

the only person that drinks tea a lot here is you.

tea is an essential, luce.

it’s tea, lockwood. we can always buy more.

perhaps we need an additional rule to the biscuit one ...

think i did a rather good job then, actually.

nonsense, we're a team. you've done incredibly ever since you've stepped through that door.
