She came for the
brother.
She's staying for the tea.
And scones.
And the big comfy chair by the fireplace.
[OOC: Mun requests great slowtime! For she has to get up to open the office in approximately 6 1/2 hours. For woe! Tags will be picked up tomorrow at the earliest possible time.]

Yeah. This is what happens when Clive gets coffee. He turns into Sniffles The Mouse
Much like his mun.

"I'm trying so hard not to 'I told you so' right now," she says, mostly keeping the grin off her face.
Until it gets to the dumped-on-Valentine's-Day-thing.
