Thenamesh incorrect quotes part two

Part one

Thena: Since we're in a relationship now, your clothes are my clothes too. Don't ask me why I have your shirt on, this is our shirt.

Gilgamesh: Fine, but when I come strutting in with your fuzzy socks I don't want to hear shit.

Gilgamesh walking into the kitchen and seeing all of the limes in the house peeled: Thena, I love you but, what the h-e-double FUCK.

Thena, sipping coffee happily: I love you too :)

Thena: Let’s watch Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

Gilgamesh: Okay.

Thena, nonchalantly: And make out during the scary parts.

Gilgamesh: Th-

Gilgamesh: The scary parts.

Gilgamesh: Of Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

Thena: *closes a cabinet*

*a crash is heard behind the cabinet door*

Gilgamesh: What was that?

Thena: The sound of someone else's problem.

Gilgamesh: I want to be with you for the rest of my life.

Thena: Damn, that sounds like a marriage proposal.

Gilgamesh, getting down on one knee: That's 'cause it is.

Thena, tending to Gilgamesh’s wounds: How would you rate your pain?

Gilgamesh: Zero stars. Would NOT recommend.

*Thena and Gilgamesh are holding hands*

Kingo: Why are you two holding hands?

Thena: Studies show that holding hands can reduce stress.

Kingo: Oh, I thought you two were dating or something.

Gilgamesh: We are. We’re also just really fucking stressed.

Gilgamesh: What are you writing?

Thena: The government wants to know what kind of weapons we have in the house. I'm letting them know it's private information.

Gilgamesh, looking over Thena’s shoulder: This just says “fuck around and find out” in calligraphy.

*in some friends to lovers au or something*

Gilgamesh: I thought that maybe-

Thena: *Cuts Gilgamesh off by kissing him*

Gilgamesh: -you’d love me again.

Thena: Who says I stopped?

Kingo: Awwwww!

Gilgamesh:

Thena:

Kingo: I ruined the moment.

*Thenamesh is at IKEA*

Gilgamesh: *staring at all the desks*

Thena: *walks up behind him* What are you doing?

Gilgamesh: I’m wondering which one of these you’d look best pinned aga-

Thena: We can do that tomorrow.

Ajak: *sits down*

Thena: I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH GILGAMESH!

Ajak: …

Ajak: I was going to ask you if you wanted an empanada-

Ajak, internally: She’s down bAD.

Gilgamesh: What the FUCK is this?!?

Thena, sitting down, surrounded by corpses and smiling: I won Mafia, that’s what.

Thena: What an idiot.

Thena: *Realizes it's Gilgamesh*

Thena: Wait, that's MY idiot!

Thena: My partner must be top of the line, graceful, organized-

Gilgamesh: Sorry I’m late, I was doing things.

Thena: Hi, I’m ‘things’.

Gilgamesh, trying to reach something: Thena, could you give me a hand?

Thena: Sure.

Thena: *Holds his hand*

Gilgamesh, blushing: Adorable, but that’s not what I meant.

Thena: Relationships should be 50/50. Gilgamesh cooks us dinner while I sit on the kitchen counter looking pretty.

Ajak: Hey Gilgamesh, are you free on Friday? Around 8pm?

Gilgamesh: Yeah.

“Have you ever thought about publishing a ghost stories book for children? With stories like this, I think you can approach a whole new generation of readers.”

She chuckled again, shaking her head, “Later. I have a manuscript to edit and a new Minerva book for adults to work on.” She picked up the teapot and found it empty.

“I’ll make you a fresh one,” Gil took it from her hands.

“I can do it myself. You’re not my butler,” she remarks.

“I’m going to the kitchen to make some cookies anyway, just leave it to me,” he cupped her shoulders and gently sat her down on her swiveling chair, “You just stay here and work, or relax.”

“Fine,” she rolled her eyes, “But call me right away if anything weird happens.”

They both had an understanding now, that “weird” meant something different than the daily pranks from the ghosts.

“Sure,” he said, “Are you waiting for a client?”

“Maybe,” Thena tilted her head, twirling a lock of hair around her finger, “She said she would come by today but I’m not so sure, that one is quite whimsical.”
