[castle]

shit is that a deal breaker

[ has he even bothered to replace any of it? nope. ]

bed's still in one piece

[ what. ]

[earps]

[ good thing she totally just took a sip of her water. ]

Oh, goody. One whole bed.

[ in the middle of a completely wrecked apartment. what a gent, what a guy. ]

[castle]

what the hell else do you need to do there but sleep

[ because that's obviously all he meant. ]

we always eat out anyway
what would you even need a dining table for

[ yeah, wynonna. what else would you use one for? ]

[earps]

A couch would be nice.

[ annnnd maybe she's not going to answer that next part. ]

What if I planned on cooking? For company? We'd just eat on the floor?

[ oh, wynonna, you hilarious. ]

[castle]

couch is doing just fine
you saw it

[ got a couch, a bed, and a chair. what more do you want? ]

oh so you cook
color me surprised

[earps]

Okay, fine. A couch, a bed and a coffeemaker that doesn't suck. You're really selling me on that whole moving in thing.

[ clearly he doesn't need much to live on. ]

Occasionally.

[ whether she cooks well is another story. ]

[castle]

told you
you don't need all that damn space

think i spend more time at your place than mine
with all the shit i gotta fix for you

[ who's really complaining though? ]

if it's occasionally you can eat from the couch

[earps]

Then maybe I'm the one who should be looking for roommates.

[ since she does actually have more than the one bedroom, even if she's pretty sure one has a leak coming in through the ceiling. ]

What's that? I couldn't hear you over all of my coffee you keep drinking.

Next you're gonna tell me I should just eat right over the sink.

[castle]

yeah your place'll be a real sell for that

[ just be sure to include "be wary of floods" in the ad. ]

and why not

[ he does. ]

[earps]

It will once you fix it up.

[ see what she did there? ]

So I guess you'll just eat anywhere.

[castle]

getting kind of dependent on these hands huh

[ they could so a lot more than home repair, but that's a discussion for another day. ]

anytime anywhere

[earps]

Who else is gonna do it?

[ he's the only handyman she knows of in this whole damn town, anyway. ]

Well, if you want to come by once you're not elbow-deep in that washer there could be pizza in it for you in addition to the target practice.

[castle]

could teach you a trick or two

[ handygal judy has a nice ring to it. ]

cooking it yourself?

[ ;) ]

[earps]

I could rock a toolbelt.

[ not that different from a gunbelt, right? ]

Yes, and the recipe involves dialing a phone number and waiting for someone from Peter's to drop it off.

[ besides, they could probably use the money to pay for any bear-related damages. ]

[castle]

signing on as my apprentice?

[ because that's obviously a good idea. ]

cute

[ her joke, not her. of course. ]

sausage and mushroom

[earps]

Let's not go that far.

[ unless he wants to go behind her and fix what she's handled at every turn. ]

On half.

[ because the other half is going be her choice, castiglione. ]

[castle]

yeah?
and what are you wasting that second half on

[ whatever, the man will eat anything anyway. but he'll tug at those trolling strings anyway. ]

[earps]

[ should she expect anything less at this point? ]

Pepperoni. And extra cheese.

[ like she’s even gonna share her side. ]

[castle]

pepperoni

[ you can't see it but his face is thoroughly disappointed. ]

you sure you don't want some sausage

[earps]

What’s wrong with pepperoni?

[ she can feel the disappointment in that text, pete, feel it. ]

Pretty sure I could do without it for a while.

[castle]

got a good kick to it but it's a poor man's sausage

[ he's a big boy, he'll take it. ]

need a little more spice in your life, judy

[earps]

I think that’s the first time anyone’s ever accused me of lacking that, Harry.

[ she of the barfights and ill-advised decisions. ]

Fine. Sausage and mushroom.

[castle]

right of course
the original spice girl

[ is that a joke? is he making a joke? ]

you could put that order in
just about done with the gig

[ and he'll add: ]

if you want me stopping by now

[earps]

[ he gets free pizza, he gets free access to a private range.

really, pete, you're getting downright spoiled here. ]

Now's as good a time as any.

[ it's not like she has anything better to do around here. ]

[castle]

[ let's not talk, lady.

he's the only reason your house is still standing right now. ]

give me less than an hour

[ but also, ]

don't fall asleep this time
