He watches you sleep and sticks his hands in your stockings. But not if you've been naughty.
Mince pies are shit, but I suppose we'll have them. And we had advent for a bit but I think Jem ate the whole thing and destroyed the evidence on about the third. I'm not being your mummy, and I'm definitely not being puritanical.
It is something you can eat. It's literally chocolate every day until Christmas Eve, when the only thing you're going to eat for the next three days anyway is chocolate, crisps and turkey so you don't need the advent stuff anymore.
Well, I dare say I've enjoyed what I've had. [ just give him a couple minutes to process. ] But of course he will. I can't think of another place he would be.
But the view's nice, I suppose. Might even be worth seeing for yourself. And more, the bedclothes have scarce been used, so they're like to be cleaner than yours.

Advent isn't something you eat, it's something you do. Never saw the point in it, myself.
no subject
Speaking of eating, you're coming to the Frasers?
no subject
I reckon I'll be there, aye. I've heard tell you'll be overseeing the food.
no subject
And I'll be needing a few hands on deck, so you can help get things ready if you're around Christmas Eve.
...John'll be over, too.
no subject
Will he, now? All the better. I always enjoy the good doctor's company.
no subject
And yeah, well. You haven't had the chance to enjoy too much of it so far. And it's Christmas, so. Anyway, he'll be in my room.

no subject
Right. So, just letting you know. Try not to leave your pants on the floor. Jem's brother's probably dropping by, too.
no subject
Where am I meant to leave them, then?
no subject
You have got a room of your own. It's that one on the left of the corridor, gathering dust.
no subject
Oh, that's right. [ as if he'd forgotten. ] I'll be reacquainting myself with it on Christmas Eve, as I guess.

But Friday I thought I'd sleep at yours.
no subject
What, in my room?
no subject
no subject
Is this because you're wishing to keep your bedclothes clean for when the doctor arrives?
no subject
Though I should probably wash them, I suppose...
no subject
no subject
Anyway, just thought I'd see what the view's like across the hall.
no subject

no subject
I think you've forgotten the whole sailing bit, though. You're more of a farmhand than a pirate, now.
no subject
Unless, of course, you wish me to sail so far that I disappear again.
no subject
And no. Not today, anyway. You could take me out again, though.
