you didn't scratch ME behind the ears, he sent, with a little disappointed face emoji. though I suppose in that state I wouldn't have appreciated it properly
At least over text, nobody could see him blushing.
You were a bleeding ghost! Autocorrect helpfully added a little ghost emoji after that, which Jon didn't notice until after he'd sent it.
I'm just glad you're not. Next time, I will ask the half-naked man to visit you when he leaves. Or you can find him around. Apparently his name is Goose.
Not mine. His own, before he somehow broke out of his own apartment. I fed him tuna and cat food. And that's a new one for me, too. How am I supposed to mark that on
There was a brief break.
Never mind. Apparently the insurance forms have an option for "Disintegrated, destroyed, or eaten by aliens". I am very glad not to be an adjuster.

Date: 2021-10-04 07:39 pm (UTC)I'm told the insurance forms for Brakebills were similarly insane, Eliot said. One of my personal goals is to never have to know about it for sure
Fillory didn't have any insurance at all, so . . . he didn't think that'd be terribly hard.

Date: 2021-10-04 09:33 pm (UTC)This was turning into the most normal, low-key conversation Jon had had in years. He clearly needed to text more often.

Eliot included himself in that. Or would, if he hadn't skipped past regular college entirely to attend his magic university.

Re: Text to Eliot, after radio on Monday
