(MAG045) MARTIN: Hey, I-just-wanted-to-check-if-you-wanted-a-cup-of-tea. ARCHIVIST: Aaah… MARTIN: Oh, oh, sorry, you were recording, I thought you were done for the day. ARCHIVIST: I– I was, I am, it’s, uh… […] MARTIN: … D– did you want that tea? ARCHIVIST: Nnno. Thank you, Martin.
(MAG065) TIM: And the worst thing? The actual worst thing is that no one here has my back, with any of it! Elias doesn’t care, Martin just wants a tea party, and Sasha… god, and you!
(MAG069) MARTIN: Look. Jon… when was the last time we all just talked? Just talked, without all of this– ARCHIVIST: Thank you for the tea, Martin. MARTIN: Oookay. Fine. [OPENS DOOR] He’s not wrong, you know. [CLOSES DOOR] ARCHIVIST: I know.
(MAG110) BASIRA: Look, Martin. I know you care. I know you do. But caring isn’t enough. You can’t just stand next to someone with a cup of tea and hope everything’s gonna be alright. MARTIN: That’s not fair. You don’t even know me. BASIRA: Prove it. We need to do something.
(MAG117) MARTIN: […] Anyway. I guess I’m just sick of sitting on my hands, drinking tea and hoping everyone’s okay. This way I finally get to do something. It’s gonna hurt, but… I’m ready. And I want to. Also, I get to burn some stuff, so that’s cool!
(MAG122) ARCHIVIST: … What did he do to Martin? BASIRA: Er, I… don’t know. We don’t see him around the Archives much these days. Best I can figure, he’s working on something with Lukas. ARCHIVIST: No, that– No, that, that… that must be something else. BASIRA: Maybe. I don’t know. […] Anything else? ARCHIVIST: Water. Please. BASIRA: Sure thing. [OPENS DOOR] ARCHIVIST: … Oh, or a cup of t– [DOOR CLOSES.] … [SIGHS] Okay…
(Casual reminder to remember about the mug of tea, now cold, that you’ve forgotten a few hours ago.)
