I am quite sure. Beer is very delicious.

[oh great, he's drunk. like this couldn't get any worse.]

I meant that he's really gone.

I'm used to being alone! Alone is my middle name! Gilbert is my first, but I'm really Prussia. West is West, but I guess you knew that already.

He told me, yes. [he's quiet for a bit, fiddles with the things on his desk and straightens his shirt cuffs. sympathy has always been difficult for him.]

People will always leave eventually. But that doesn't make it any easier.

Good thing I'm the type that never leaves!

It's a relative position.

video;

[seizeyoursouls]

It's the best position cuz it's held by me!

West is still pretty reliable, you know. He was there for my birthday and got me a present like always.

Was it anything useful? [because gifts are dumb unless you can clean or disinfect with them]

[seizeyoursouls]

Beer!

[lol]

[cursedwithagift]

So, that's a no.

Re: video;

[seizeyoursouls]

Beer is always useful. And sometimes cake too.

[cursedwithagift]

Not really. They leave rings on the tables that take forever to come out, and the icing means that crumbs have to be individually combed out of the carpet.

Ja, but West made good cake, and we both take turns cleaning. We're the best cleaners! Though I guess I'll have to make my own cake now . . .

[cursedwithagift]

And do your own cleaning. [this is the more important thing to Monk, and it's readily apparent by his tone of voice]

[seizeyoursouls]

I can do my own cleaning! And then I can brag to myself when I'm done . . .

Or you could go over everything a second time, just to be sure.

Re: video;

[seizeyoursouls]

I check seventy times.

[cursedwithagift]

Why not one hundred?

Re: video;

[THINKS ABOUT IT]

[cursedwithagift]

It would be perfectly even. No mistakes.

Re: video;

[seizeyoursouls]

I never make mistakes! Where do you think West learned that from?

video;

[cursedwithagift]

Everyone makes mistakes. It doesn't matter who you are, or how much you try to avoid it, it'll happen eventually. That's why you need to be ready to work around them.

Re: video;

[seizeyoursouls]

[ . . . ]

I don't make mistakes.

[cursedwithagift]

People who say that usually make the biggest ones.

Re: video;

[seizeyoursouls]

Those are the ones you learn the most from.
