“Oh. Um, lunch would be…That’d be really nice. Thank you.”

“You’re only saying that because I said take-out and not homemade food!”

“For real - Chinese or Italian?”

[investigator-mackenzie]

mary-mcnamara:

“No. I can’t right now. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to snap, but I’m very busy.”

“Oh, sorry! Didn’t mean to, uh - you know what, was gonna see if you wanted to grab lunch, but do you want me to maybe pick you up something? I wouldn’t mind!”

Does anyone have a couch I can crash on for tonight?

“What’s up? Did something happen?” Kevin asked, concerned that anyone would face the prospects of being stuck out in South Boston without a place to stay.

“It’s all cool until they trespass and the business owners call us to deal with it.”

“Guess kids just need to get better at sneaking around then.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

the-littlest-cadet:

“It’s absurd.”

“I don’t know...It’s got all the kids walking around, and that’s kind of cool? I think.”

the-littlest-cadet:

“I’ve had to warn three separate groups of people not to trespass while playing Pokemon Go. What is wrong with people?”

“I don’t get it. It’s...a game? But in real life? I mean, it sounds like fun, but...”

claudiaflynnmackenzies:

“Dad, don’t worry, I’ll get you both a Father’s day gift and a birthday gift. There’s no need to butter me up for it.”

“But, just so you know, I love you too.”

“Ha, I won’t start demanding presents until you get a real job that’s not hanging around my office.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

claudiaflynnmackenzies:

“I can ask mom, but if she is okay with it, will you be too?”

“Okay, but make sure you get extra pepperoni this time. They kind of skimped out on it last time.”

“Yeah. Don’t worry about me - I’ll be fine.”

“Got it. And just...you know I love ya, right?”

[investigator-mackenzie]

mary-mcnamara:

“Who gave it to you?”

“That nice man with the big beard over there! Wave hi!”

[investigator-mackenzie]

mary-mcnamara:

“Oh Kev, sweetie, that’s not…Never mind.”

“Hey Mary! What’s up? Want a Long Island Iced Tea? I have one waiting for me, apparently.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

“Wow! I keep getting bought drinks. This is officially awesome.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

blake-callaway:

“You sound like you should give up this private eye business and go try out for Top Chef. Sorry, ‘M full of jokes tonight. Scrambled eggs do sound good, though…Could I stay over tonight with Claudia? My aunt wouldn’t mind.” 

“Already did, they said I was too good for the competition and would trounce everyone.”

“Of course! I’ll give you guys a few bucks and you can get some movies from the redbox even.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

claudiaflynnmackenzies:

‘Of course, dad. We got this.”

“Really? I mean, do you wanna do anything next weekend? If not, then I guess I could hang out with mom. Or we could spend time together…”

“I mean, I’d like to, but your mom usually doesn’t ask. Crap, I mean...”

“Hey, let’s order pizza for dinner. You want pizza?”

[claudiaflynnmackenzies-blog]

“Yes! Even if you can’t we can go to the movies. Maybe sneak into another one after?”

[investigator-mackenzie]

“Just like I taught you, remember? Don’t let ‘em notice a thing.”

“Uh, speaking of - your mother called. She wanted to see if you were free next weekend.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

blake-callaway:

“Good to know we’ll have you on our side if we need to make a quick getaway, sir. I dunno, what kinda things do you cook? I might say I want escargot. She never really said it, but the implication was there when she always wants to get take out.” 

“I can cook...lots of things! I’m a pro grill-master. And I can make a mean mac’n’cheese. Uh...I can also make really good scrambled eggs.”

[investigator-mackenzie]

the-littlest-cadet:

“How could you over look something that serious? That should be an arrestable offense.”

“What you think we should start a petition or something to get that on the law books?”

[investigator-mackenzie]

claudiaflynnmackenzies:

“A Sox game would be so cool! And I want to catch a movie, not sure which one we should go watch, but we should definitely go to the movies.”

“I think I have a buddy who can hook me up with cheap seats, I think! I’ll give him a call this weekend. And totally - I’m always down for whatever superhero movie is out now, long as you’re into it!”
