[...Never mind, the candle was a good purchase after all.]
Oh... I'm glad. I was afraid maybe it'd bother you.
[He'll leave the candle here, then. He's... already put the booklet that came with it away in his pocket. Just gonna keep the reason he really got this candle to himself. Well. And Elijah, but you know.]
[Speaking of Elijah, he's....still there. Just observing.
Oswald, also there, shakes his head.] No, it doesn't bother me at all.
[as for that second question] It was...fine. We weren't swamped, so there's that. But it was still rather busy. We got in four new cases, so all of them needed dealing with. A couple were fairly straightforward and all the evidence seemed pretty obvious. However the other two are a little trickier.
[He glances Elijah's way for a second, but... if he answers directly, that means explaining what he's talking about to Oswald. So. Attention on Oswald it is.]
Well, good thing it's you on the job, then.
[Still, the lack of a response is... probably enough of an answer, huh?]
[alsdkfhs he is delighted at that, and he sputters out another laugh] Just assume that whatever is going to come out of his mouth is worthless ahead of time?
no subject
Ah... Yeah.
That's okay, right...?

[he'll move to sit down across from him, then.]

It sounds like a lot, still...
[JUST GONNA! TALK ABOUT THIS NOW! Just the regular catching up after Oswald's work, yep.]
no subject
"You're not going to tell him?"

Well, good thing it's you on the job, then.

[Oswald, however, just laughs at that, pleased] Certainly. They're quite lucky to have me, you know~
no subject
[Sorry, Elijah... He feels a little bad just ignoring you, but, ah. Sometimes that's... the only option he really has.]
no subject
Well. Meroni isn't, that's for sure. [yep going to roll his eyes now] He's raising a stink again.

[Oswald smirks darkly at that]

Maybe someone should tell him.
