You say that, but I'm going to worry no matter what. You know me. -gives a water laugh- I sure hope so. Although I think I'll stick with tea instead of the coffee. But don't tell Hestia. -lingers a bit on the hug before pulling away- Thanks. -shakes herself a bit- On a lighter note, how is Pete?

I’m more likely to look out for Gid’s arse then my own. He’s more likely to get into trouble then I am. -gives her a small smile- But you don’t have to worry about us, Mary. We’ll be fine. After all of this nonesense is over we’ll laugh at it all over coffee and have some smiles, alright. -pulls her into hug b/c fab is a huggy person- Hey there’s nothing wrong with worrying. 

[maryemacdonald]

That's what people keep telling me. Good. And you'll look out for Gid, as well? I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to either of you. -pauses- Sorry that I'm being so dramatic. It seems like I'm always a bit emotional these days.

Things have to get worse before they get better. It’s the sad truth about it. Don’t you be worrying about me. You know I’m always careful. 

[maryemacdonald]

I know. But nothing seems to be getting better. Things seem to be getting worse, actually. You'll be careful the next time you're on the job, right? You promise you'll be careful?

These things are happening all the time, Mary.

[maryemacdonald]

I just don't—I don't see how this could have happened.

I didn’t believe it when I heard either.

[maryemacdonald]

...That can't possibly be true.

(from Jeremy): Cattermole got a great bird in you, Mary. Always been one of the nicest girls I've known.

#I need everyone to look at these pictures of Eddie wearing a wedding ring with me

//i think i'm most emotional about the "eddie and hannah redmayne" tbh

-pulls a bit of a :| face because she is unsure of what she did wrong- Well, if you come back to find one of your sugar quills missing, you can go ahead and blame me. I promise to replace them. -tries to smile reassuringly- 'Fraid not. Sorry. -pauses, then takes a deep breath- You're really starting to scare me, Marls.

Listen — I need you t'stay with her.

[maryemacdonald]

Experimenting with what? If you don't mind me asking, that is.

It is. Just, you know, routine and all that. I just get this bad feeling that because everything feels relatively normal for right now, something horrible is about to happen. ...Is that mad?

Could you just say that again?

[maryemacdonald]

I reckon it makes plenty of people moody. So dramatic and all. -nods, not wanting to press it- Right. -grabs the thing and nods again- I will. I can do it right now, before you leave, if you like. Do you have quill and ink? I didn't bring any in my bag...

Listen — I need you t'stay with her.

[maryemacdonald]

I'd offer to help, but I'm afraid Transfig was never my forte, as you know. I was always more of a Charms girl. It's surprising that you, on your way to being a professor, are still learning.

It has been ages. I'm decent. I'm still working at the bookshop, so not much has changed there.

Could you just say that again?

[maryemacdonald]

It's understandable. I think everyone's been a bit like that lately. Busy with what?

Could you just say that again?

[maryemacdonald]

I asked if you were listening. Clearly not. -smiles- You alright? You've been staring off into space for almost two minutes.

Could you just say that again?

[maryemacdonald]

-looks down at maggie and smiles- I swear I'll be careful with her. -nods- Sounds like a plan. -to baby- We'll have a nice little sitdown and listen to the radio, won't we? -looks back up at marls- Are you, I mean, I know I probably shouldn't pry... Is it far where you're going?

Listen — I need you t'stay with her.

[maryemacdonald]

Of, course, whatever you need, I'm here. -smiles sympathetically- You go do what you need to do. But you have to promise to be careful, alright?

Listen — I need you t'stay with her.
