Unfortunate Expressions

Just a small slice from my hypothetical everybody-lives au, where Gertrude and Emma mysteriously disappear in their old age and Eric gets the promotion because, like, seniority and qualifications. Sasha also gets moved down into the archives as an assistant (she’s pretty much set to be the next head archivist when the rest of them retire).

I imagine it takes an adjustment period for Sasha to understand that all of them are weird as hell, and that working in the archives for decades will make you weird as hell.

or maybe eric was just always Like That
