[8:37am] 04/01/23
Charles: I just got into work and already people are asking questions
Eric: What are you telling them?
Charles: "Yes I am engaged, yes it is to Eric, now leave me alone"
Eric: I would have told them to fuck off
Charles: yes but that's because it's you
Eric: true
[9:01am]
Charles: Who were you thinking of having as your best man?
[9:07am]
Eric: I don't know
Eric: I may ask Sean
Eric: but we aren't that close
Eric: see the thing is I don't have any people I'm close with
Eric: you know me
Charles: I do, I know you very well
Eric: I don't like talking to people
Eric: Can I ask you something?
Charles: of course you can
Eric: Would you mind if I asked one of your brothers to be my best man?
Charles: of course not
Eric: you don't mind?
Charles: no of course not
Charles: which brother?
Eric: Who are you having as your best man?
Charles: I don't know, I don't know which brother to choose
Eric: why don't you talk to your brothers
Charles: alright, can I invite them over for drinks?
Eric: sounds good
Charles: I think El wants to walk me down the aisle
Eric: awww that's sweet
Charles: Her logic is that I'm walking her down the aisle so she should walk me down
Charles: and because she used the logic of her being the favourite sibling
Eric: haha
Eric: what about Lily?
Charles: She would rather carry the rings
Eric: that's fine by me
Charles: I'll talk to you in a bit my love
Eric: goodbye handsome
Eric: good luck with your class
Charles: thanks <3
[10:38am]
Eric: there are times when I hate my job
Charles: same
Eric: but there are also times when I love it
Charles: debatable
Eric: I thought you loved being a professor
Charles: I mean the constant marking, quite often losing my voice and dealing with nosy little shits takes the glamour out of it
Eric: I could never, I don't have the patience
Charles: I do love it though, I like teaching people and I obviously love what I teach
Eric: nerd
Charles: geek
Eric: you do look adorable when you are talking about genetics
Charles: I do?
Eric: you're very passionate and expressive. You go into your own little world and your eyes shine with excitement
Charles: you notice that?
Eric: of course I do
Charles: if I was next to you I would be hugging you tightly and probably sobbing because I love you so much
Eric: and I would be hugging you back and trying to stop you from crying
[11:11am]
Charles: I love you
Eric: I love you too
[11:32am]
Charles: I just had a response from the twins
Eric: and?
Charles: they can come for drinks tonight
[11:45am]
Eric: shall I stop by the store and get some beers
Charles: that sounds good
Charles: Pilsner?
Eric: of course
Eric: if I can find it/if they do it
Eric: hopefully I can/they do
Eric: Es ist das Beste
Charles: I think they do
Eric: good good
Charles: I will agree, German beer is the best
Eric: better than Guinness or whiskey?
Charles: will it increase my chances of sex if I say yes?
Eric: yes
Charles: German beer is much better than whiskey or Guinness
Eric: glad we both agree
Charles: never make me say that in front of your granda
Eric: why not?
Charles: because he's fucking terrifying
Eric: haha
[12:17pm]
Eric: I love what I do, I make good money and it's quite easy
Eric: but oh my fucking god the people I work with can be right simpletons which makes everything 10x more stressful
Charles: awwwww I'm sorry handsome, is there anything I can do to help
Eric: tell Rose thanks for being amazing as always
Charles: will do
Charles: I'm on my lunch break, want me to bring you anything
Eric: such as...
Charles: a kiss, blow job, a way to decrease stress, some help doing whatever you're doing, some caffeine
Eric: how long do you have
Charles: well I don't actually have any more classes this afternoon, all I was going to do was a bit of marking but you are my first priority
Eric: you'd really come down to my office?
Charles: of course
Eric: I'd love you to be here
Charles: I'm just leaving
Eric: ...you had your stuff already packed didn't you?
Charles: yep
Eric: you still would have come even if I had told you not to, wouldn't you?
Charles: yep
