OK, you all know a little
about me (It is his story after all). Thought it was about time you learned a
little about my weird and wonderful housemates. Flip, you’re up.
Um, my name is Phillip-
Flip, you’ve got 25 words or
less to describe yourself. Let’s start with things they don’t already know.
Who are ‘they’ anyway?
Shh! Go.
I’m originally from Romford, Essex.
Good.
I’m a Postman by day-
Bellend by night.
Leave him alone, Lee! Carry on Flip, you’re doing well.
Uh, I have a degree in Computing.
Snore.
Christ, Lee-
Christ is my middle name. You know this, Ruby. (He’s kidding. His middle name is Alan.)
My father is a human, mother is a Witch.
Bzz! That’s your limit.
Ruby, your turn. Go.
Born in Manchester. Parents both dead. Tooth Faery
since I was 17. Living with these two for three years. Favourite colour:
red. Can I go now?
By my count you still have
two words left.
I’ve got two words for you, Lee. Here’s a clue: the
second one's ‘off’.
You can stop sniggering for
a start Postman Prat!
I thought you said sharing was going to be “a fun and
enriching experience”?
Yeah, what was the point in all this?
Firstly, your impression of
me is crap. (I laughed.) Second, with our hectic, young-person lifestyles it
feels like we never get time out to smell the roses.
All you have is time out!
Um, what does being “watched” actually mean.
No more skiving. Ha!
Gutted!
O-contraire my dear
wing-less Fairy. It only means I will have to manage my workload more
creatively.
Oh yeah? Do tell oh Grim
Skiver.
I…I…Ahh. Give me a week and
I’ll have cracked it. I’m great at reading people; one of the perks of the job.
(There are many “perks” to
being a Reaper. However, after Lee lost his first Reaping Blade, two days in,
he was subsequently granted the same level of influence as your average work
experience placement. He still doesn’t know.)
