FrankM_ This scoundrel caused chaos on the Knight Bus yesterday when it hitched a lift. Chasing it out did not factor in my research time! #knightbusoverhaul #birds #researcherproblems ~~#bettercompanythansomehumans~~ #momdmt

	@FrankM_: He did not buy a ticket and I'm not sure he wanted to hop from London to Nottingham, but that's what happened. Long flight home! I had nothing to do with any tickets that may or may not have existed. Aside from my own so they'd keep me supplied with coffee. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	@mollysuetoo: They make you buy a ticket?! You're staff!! And they should keep you supplied with caffeine either way, ALL THE TIME <3 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	@FrankM_: Well I buy the cheapest ticket and then claim it back on expenses. One part of the MoM pays another back, it's fun. I absolutely agree with you about the caffeine. I person has needs! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	@mollysuetoo: Hmmm... makes me wonder if one can send stuff to the Knight Bus. There must be a way, right? I have research to do :p (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	@FrankM_: I know the answer to that actually! Had to read all the rules and regs for the improvement project. Short answer: in theory yes, but it's pretty difficult if you don't know what you're doing. DM: If you actually want to send stuff to the KB let me know and I can explain. I'm not there anymore though, it was just one day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This is what I was planning on sending you, no need to worry about the Bus details (as if you need to think about those more than you already do, lol!). xoxo MSW Carried by owl in a paper bag from Sweet Nothings, a magically un-spilling, very large, cup of coffee and a small bag of all the fixings, not knowing how Frank takes theirs.

	You are an excellent friend. Ministry coffee is not the best. Nor Knight Bus for the record. For the future I mostly take coffee black with 1 sugar, but I'll drink it how it comes! F x (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm glad to know! Though in the future good coffee might be coming more in the form of brewed-at-home rather than all fancy from Sweet Nothings. The joys of reconfiguring a budget to accommodate sudden joblessness! (Well, I gave Madam Malkin a month's notice, so not all THAT sudden, but still... LOL) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I just meant for when I visit! TBH I bring my own in a morning, but it doesn't last. I gotta keep the energy up somehow. ARGH you did it! How long do you have left? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Psh. Morning coffee is barely enough for the morning! I know you better than that, especially when you get caught up in your, like, data pages and stuff (I know nothing about your work, or, real jobs in general, LOL). Like 3 wks left, and getting more anxious by the SECOND. Thank merlin for savings & those stupid club appearances, Zee said I can pick up more (like twice a weekend, since I cut back a while ago), and free rent.

Hey I am a morning person! Just one who likes their coffee too. FYI new job is Knight Bus improvement team: decorative and spellwork revamp/upgrade, plus customer surveys on if the working model needs to change up. Spell combo/research nerd joy, but weird and boring to everyone else. Free rent is clearly the best. London rent sucks. If you want clubbing company sometimes lmk if my vibe isn't going to ruin your appearances.

It's not weird and boring if you like it! I just don't know much about 'normal' jobs. I did my internship at G's Bank but that was biz start up and marketing, and then I went into, like, retail, and getting paid to go to parties, lol. And designing isn't exactly a job.

Your vibe wouldn't ruin anything - nerd you may be, but you're a solid party buddy, with a real rocker's soul <3

Even my job isn't that conventional for a MoM job, but yeah, I've only done average type jobs. Don't wanna do retail again though. And designing is totally a job, it's a creative one, but I couldn't do it! Different kind of brain work.

Oh I know I can party, I meant more I'm not gonna look the same kind of sexy club girl you do. Obviously. I love being me, but it's not what usually gets waved through club lines tbh.

	"Sexy club girl" is totally never the only type of person in the VIP areas, not even the only paid kind, I promise! Rocker Vibes are a Big Deal, they make the VIP areas seem ~cool and ~mysterious even if some of the people who look like that are total puppies (in a good way, lol).

	Huh, the more you know. I am not cool and mysterious, for sure. But I can see how the leather trousers look that way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Texts Molly/Frank mollysuetoo 2022-04-18 12:49 am UTC (link)
	Leather trousers ~always look that way. Not a bad thing 😆 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Texts Molly/Frank _markham 2022-04-18 12:54 am UTC (link)
	No no. I am very much in favour. I look good in them. Even if magic only makes them minorly more tolerable to wear (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't blame you there, they can be very clingy! Have you used baby powder before putting them on? Muggle trick that helps brilliantly! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The talc only goes so far, believe me. Magic can cool things down a little, but getting them off at the end of the night is still the worst. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
