Godfrey Goodies
A day off was rare for Papa Godfrey, it was such a rare occasion in fact he made sure to invite everyone over for dinner. Because he wasn’t quite sure what else to do with his time, and Connie had mentioned the house needed some extra wards placed up. He knew lesser than the basics about warding, but he had no magic himself to contribute. So Instead he kept himself busy in the kitchen scooting from each assembly line station he had figured would make it easier to get things ready. An older type of radio device was placed on the corner of the counter playing out random police codes. Rich occasionally paused to stare at the police scanner, but then went back to work.
He heard the front door close and turned around to stare at the first arrival. A large grin formed once he recognized his wife. “Hello beloved. Do you want to set the table? This should be done soon. I sent the dinner is ready emoji to the family group chat. It’s weird the emoji is an eggplant. I added some to the salad since everyone seems to love eggplant these days. “

It had been a day. Or rather, a week/month/year. Constance could no longer keep up with how long it had felt as if the sky was about to fall. It was frankly exhausting and she truly believed that without Richard she would have long ago been done in by the stress. Today it was nothing catastrophic, dealing with a temperamental artist and designer at the museum and Connie really didn’t have the patience to deal with it. But her husband had the day off, and the blonde had promised to leave early enough for them to have a nice family meal, so she did.
The crackling of the police scanner he favored greeted her as she walked into the house, Connie wasn’t sure why he did this but she was too pleased to see him to really care. A wave of her hand and the door closed behind her and with another, a drawer opened and silverware flew across the room and set itself in the proper way. Seating for five - not six how it should be. The blonde laughed at his words, and came up behind him wrapping her arms around her husband and laying her head against his back.
“Oh darling, have I told you how wonderful you are?” She sighed, then slipped under his arms so she was now standing in front of him. An eyebrow shot up at explanation of the strange emoji she’d seen in the group message just before arriving home. “But, I should tell you. I don’t think the kids use the eggplant emoji in the way you think.” Her lips pulled into a smirk and one hand slid softly from his back to fiddle with the button on his pants. Her other hand pulled his face down to meet hers. “It has nothing to do with dinner.” Connie laughed lightly again, and kissed him hard, hand on his waistband slipping just a bit further down.
