It's because I wanted to have proof of you saying what I think you're going to say.

[mannerism]

Am I a journalistic project now?

Oh for the love of God, what I meant was next time bring one for you and we'll have it together.

I refuse to drink my morning coffee with that skeleton.

[ she just assumes he knows sans. everyone knows sans. ]

[signifies]

It IS my job to hold you accountable :)

I'll be there tomorrow.

[ She can explain the skeleton. ]

[mannerism]

Fancy that I need to scold you to get you to say hello.

Thank you, by the way.

[signifies]

No problem.

I'll see you tomorrow morning?

[mannerism]

0800

sharp.

[ At exactly 8 o'clock to the second the next morning, there's a knock on the door of her office. ]

Good morning!

[mannerism]

Chipper this morning, aren't we?

[ she's in her work clothes, a pencil skirt and a blouse and the usual pair of heels. the office is quiet this morning and she has two cups of tea waiting on the table. her treat, this time. ]

If I keep drinking what you and Taako provide me with, I fear for my teeth.

[ so much sugar! ]

[signifies]

[ In front of Peggy, it's his usual demeanor. ]

I could ask for less sugar in future.

[mannerism]

In future? Are we making this an arrangement then?

[ she takes a seat, gestures for him to do the same. ]

Come now. This won't be sweet but with some luck, it won't be too horrible either.

[ there is an old sense of home found in a steaming cup of earl grey. ]

[signifies]

I'm not hearing a different plan.

[ It's not a secret that he likes her company. It's the same thing that draws him to Lois, and later to Diana. ]

Earl Grey?

[mannerism]

Fine. But next time, I'd like a few biscuits.

[ this is her way of saying it sounds absolutely lovely, it would seem. ]

It's hardly the better kind they sell at home but it'll do. Sweet tooth? because we have sugar someplace here, I trust.

[signifies]

Deal.

[ Peggy might not want to open the floodgates here. ]

No sugar, thank you. I'll have some milk if you do.
