I’m wounded. I would NEVER defile your creepy ghost drawings like that

 

they’re not ghosts, they’re people

 

taken some creative liberties have you?

 

shut up

 

surely lockwood didn’t do this

 

lockwood would never do this to me

 

would you, lockwood?

 

I sincerely apologise, Lucy. I thought they looked funny. 

 

YOU PRICK

 

always so quick to blame me when he’s the REAL devil here

 

shut up george

 

I hope you both stub your toes

bread that tastes good

milk can stay

butter

flares

filings

salt we are running very low because SOMEONE spilled it all in the garden

 

only because SOMEONE threw the bag at me without a heads up

 

George, you know you shouldn’t be throwing things. 

 

because he can’t AIM

 

Because he can’t aim, yes. 

 

Holly, just get everything, I’ll add some extra notes to the grocery money. 

 

I WILL get you three to eat veg if it’s the last thing I do.

WHO ATE ALL MY JELLY DONUTS

 

kipps

 

you’re such a tattletale julie

 

:P 

 

GO HOME OLD MAN

 

BUY YOUR OWN DONUTS

 

respect your elders

 

FUCK OFF

 

You can always have some of my baby carrots, George

 

YOU FUCK OFF TOO

 

HEY



DON’T SPEAK TO YOUR BOSS THAT WAY

 

<3 <3 <3

 

Kipps, did you eat my choco leibniz too? 

 

no

 

It’s ok if you did

 

I won’t be angry

 

I didn’t. I’m allergic to chocolate. 

 

WHAT

 

FUCK OFF YOU ARE NOT

 

I am though? 

 

HOW

 

I’m not teaching you how allergies work

 

HOW HAVE YOU SURVIVED THIS LONG

 

AS AN AGENT

 

AS A PERSON

 

Quill - should I be storing the chocolates away from you? I’m sorry I didn’t realise you had an allergy

 

IS ANYONE ELSE ALLERGIC TO ANYTHING THAT I SHOULD BE AWARE OF

 

PEANUTS? MILK? PENICILLIN? 

 

LOCKWOOD, DO WE NOT HAVE THESE THINGS ON FILE FOR EMPLOYEES? 

 

Does Kipps count as an employee? 

 

LOCKWOOD

 

I’m allergic to cats

 

I’m allergic to Lockwood’s cologne 

 

I’m allergic to Lockwood 

 

You’re fired, Kipps

 

You never hired me

 

We really should have medical records for employees. If someone is hospitalised we need to know blood type, allergies, medications, etc. 

 

Anthony Lockwood, I don’t know WHERE you are hiding, but we WILL have this discussion. 

 

Have you tried looking in Lucy’s bed? 

 

FUCK OFF

was Flo here? everything’s covered in dirt

 

YES

 

she found a fascinating Source for me to examine 

 

is that the ONLY thing you examined? ;)

 

ew

 

funny way to tell everyone you’re a virgin, Kipps

 

Quill - don’t be rude about Flo

 

I wasn’t! I was being rude about George

 

that’s allowed

 

ANYWAY

 

We think it dates back to Roman occupation

 

DEFINITELY a powerful spirit attached

 

Type 2 for sure

 

Luce you should try to talk to it

 

Is that really a good idea? 

 

Be careful, you two

 

That really isn’t what Lockwood & Co.’s M.O. 

 

jesus, must we have every discussion by thinking cloth? 

 

Yes

 

No

 

Who wants spag bol for dinner?

I know everyone won’t see this until the morning

 

And I know it was a rough night

 

A really, really rough night

 

But you all were fantastic. As employees, as agents, as kick-ass human beings. 

 

I know I don’t always express it, but I am honoured and grateful to work alongside you all every day. This truly is the best agency in London, and it’s only because of this team. 

 

Everyone rest up. In the morning I’ll be ordering a veritable feast from Arif’s. We did an amazing job and deserve a party. 

 

Thank you all–George, Lucy, Holly, Quill, and even, on occasion, Flo–for sticking by me. I appreciate you more than words can ever say. 

 

-Anthony J. Lockwood
