“I am reduced to a thing that wants Virginia. I composed a beautiful letter to you in the sleepless nightmare hours of the night, and it has all gone: I just miss you, in a quite simple desperate human way. You, with all your un-dumb letters, would never write so elementary a phrase as that; perhaps you wouldn’t even feel it. And yet I believe you’ll be sensible of a little gap. But you’d clothe it in so exquisite a phrase that it would lose a little of its reality. Whereas with me it is quite stark: I miss you even more than I could have believed; and I was prepared to miss you a good deal. So this letter is just really a squeal of pain. It is incredible how essential to me you have become. I suppose you are accustomed to people saying these things. Damn you, spoilt creature; I shan’t make you love me any the more by giving myself away like this — but oh my dear, I can’t be clever and stand-offish with you: I love you too much for that. Too truly. You have no idea how stand-offish I can be with people I don’t love. I have brought it to a fine art. But you have broken down my defences. And I don’t really resent it.”
– Vita Sackville West, from a letter to Virginia Woolf

I just saw this video and I had to recreate it:
Jegulus texting:
Regulus: Why did you leave me a 20 dollars bill with a note saying "Bye ♡"
James: For the bus. Wtf are you still doing at my place Reg?
Regulus: I just woke up
James: Why the hell did you sleep for so long? Lily is off work, she's probably going home
Regulus: Shit shit shit she's here
James: Hide somewhere!!
Regulus: I'm under the bed. You do something!! Take her out, she's wandering around the place.
Regulus: The note and the bill are on the table
Regulus: James?
Regulus: Potter?
Regulus: ANSWERE ME
James: sorry I was on a meeting
Regulus: FOR A DAMN HOUR
Regulus: when is Evans leaving?
James: Tomorrow?
Regulus: I CANT STAY HERE TILL TOMORROW
James: Just sleep, I'll try to make her pick me up
Regulus: Someone rang the bell
James: whom?
Regulus: a girl, I think she is your neighbour
James: Does she have dark hair?
Regulus: I don't know James, I'm under the bed
Regulus: Holy shit they're on the bed
James: Doing what?!
Regulus: You don't really want to know...
James: Hold on! I'll be there in two minutes
---
Regulus: That's you opening the door?
James: There's no one here, did you lie to make me come home sooner to help you?
Regulus: She's hiding under the bed with me

“I’ve fallen madly in love with a woman. And it seems to me so absolutely natural and genuine - there’s nothing problematic about it at all. I just feel proud and uncontrollably glad.”

Enid: Wednesday are you going to the raven with me this year?
Wends: No, not after last year. It’s a ridiculous tradition which I was tricked into attending against my will.
Enid: But I bought a new dress!
Wends: Still no.
Enid: But you are my girlfriend Willa, you have to go with me!!
Wends: Please refer to my previous answer mon chiot.
Enid: I’ll make sure no one bothers you all night!! PLEASE?!?
Wends: I must remain firm and politely refuse my love.
Enid: Errr ok. (thinks for a second) If you come with me I won’t wear any underwear.
Wends: ………
Wends: You present an excellent case. I will attend.

Enid : Hey Willa? Have you seen my red duffel bag?
Wednesday, in the midst of typing : No.
Enid : Huh. I could’ve sworn I left it on the bed…
Wednesday : *cough* What did you intend to do with it anyway?
Enid : With my bag? Why are you asking?
Wednesday : I merely thought, had I known the purpose of you bringing it up, I could help you search for it. Retrace your steps and what not.
Enid, squinting at Wednesday : …. Wends.
Wednesday : Yes, mi vida?
Enid : Wednesday, you didn’t.
Wednesday : I have no idea what you are referring to.
Enid : Willa! You didn’t destroy my bag!
Wednesday : … You know I cannot lie to you, ma lumiere.
Enid : Wednesday! I wasn’t leaving you! I just prepared some outfits for Div to try out for her date today with Yoko!
Wednesday : … Well now I just feel foolish.
Enid : My raven, I’m never leaving your side.
Enid slides into Wednesday’s lap, the goth still sitting on her writing chair. Arms wrap themselves around the seer’s neck, as the werewolf softly peppers her face with soft kisses.
Enid : You still haven’t told me where my bag is.
Wednesday : At this point? Thousand’s of feet under the Pacific sea.
Enid : WHAT?! WEDNESDAY-
Wednesday : Your clothes, on the other hand, are inside your closet, clean and ironed.
Enid : …. You are simply infuriating.
Wednesday, smiling : Astute observation, mon amour. You love me though.
Enid, sighing, leaning in for another kiss : That I do, φεγγάρι μου.
