Upon hearing his name Garrick glanced up from his book and knitted his brows together. Had she asked him to vacuum? Really? "Uh no. I don't do... vacuuming." And no, he wasn't being rude, he even smiled slightly at the girl. He had rarely spoken to her... but she had patted him that once and well, he didn't care for that. But moving on. No. He didn't vacuum. Nope.

Hearing Benjy speak, though, he shut his book and carefully set it on the table beside him. With one last glance at Beezus he smiled once more then turned his attention to his cousin. "Here, mate, take the bag. I have more. Mum told me to split the care package with you, but I haven't seen you of late." Tossing the beans to Benjy he cast a glance about. Vacuums cleaned up dust and such... not showered people in it, so he didn't worry much about that.

Scooping up Sophocles and setting him in his lap he said, "By the way, I got you something. It's up in the dorms. Mum and Dad sent something as well." BIRTHDAY and all that. MHM.
