Arvo laughed heartily, wincing at the feel of it rolling around in his chest. He needed to stop doing that, but he never wanted to stop laughing. "No, no, you know the rules, Monty my boy - now you simply have to tell me." the joy he got from his talks with his friend were unmatched in anything...

Arvo frowned and blew the indignant air from his nose. Monty would be the type to conveniently forget his wallet when it most benefitted him to. Gone were the days when the man couldn't leave without triple checking every facet. Not that Arvo couldn't say he wasn't proud - he was prouder of...

Arvo would never admit how much he looked forward to his routine weekly visitor. Like clockwork. As it was, Kata never put the pot on until the man arrived, and these days Arvo found it difficult to stomach more than one tea in a day. His old bones rattled more than he would like and he was very...

Arvo's eyebrow rose, but they both knew that the part goblin had been bluffing about climbing a bench. He would rather just hit the backs of Wren's knees with his cane than actually put any amount of athletic effort into anything. He had spent years climbing the stairs of Hogwarts Castle as he...

It had been far too long since he had heard that nickname, and fortunately for the both of them, it brought back enough fond memories for him to not be as annoyed at his friend as he perhaps should be. Arvo knew how life could get, especially when he sometimes took longer than he intended to...

Wearing light robes and walking with a cane, Kata had managed to convince the part-goblin to get out of the house and have a cup of coffee at the local cafe, and from that point, it was now a matter of finding something else to do with himself. His wife had many errands to go on apparently, but...

“All over, I’m quite sure. I’ve many grandchildren to buy for!” He squeaked, moving slowly in the direction he’d been walking.

"Ah, I'm sure that's not true at all!" Arvo told the young lady, though he knew nothing about her background. "Well, if you really don't mind, I could use some help. I'm a bit out of the loop with these things now-a-days."

“Just a little bit, but I can’t really be bothered now, I’m much too old for this.”

“No, no, no, my wife will collect me when she’s good and ready, thank you.” Arvo said, shifting himself lazily to sit on the curb. His legs were sore, he’d walked further than he intended. He smiled up at them. “I’m sorry, I do know I’m a goblin, I was just having some fun.”

“Am I?” Arvo asked, placing his hand to his chest in an exaggerated manner, leaning back far enough it appeared he might topple backward. “My mother never said a word!”

TISU by trying to get to work early but not getting to work early at all because I forgot my laptop password and had to wait for IT to get in to reset it 🙄

Mate! You seem like a pleasant young man!

“What’s that? Part-goblin, who’s a part-goblin?” Arvo asked, sensing an opportunity for a bit of fun. “How exciting, I’ve never met one of those!” He quickly turned his head to see, “well where is this goblin! I ought to report you for lying about goblins!”

The part goblin slowly hobbled his way along in Obsidian Harbour. He supposed he should be buying presents for his various grandchildren, but really, right now, he couldn't much be bothered. There was so much hustle and bustle about. "Really, I should have asked Monty for a ride," he said...
