Rose felt their nervousness win out over their thirst for information. “Well, we haven’t got all day for discussion, but suffice to say, I am an Empath. I did, indeed, used ...
... jigsaw slotting into place. Audrey's tantalising whispers, Keltie's terrible experience with dating Ross, the rumours about Spencer's sexuality, the fact that Ross was so snappish and defensive, the mysteryshrouding his rapid exit from his previous job.

... draft of cold air and Arthurjumped, not having heard Merlin move from his cot. Merlin was a long, lean weight on Arthur's side as he slipped in and let the furs drop again, shrouding them in heavy, musky warmth.

...pub, if not a bit far from the office we were currently working in. Especially as we had to walk in one direction to the closed pub, which incidentally also had absolutely no streetlights around it, shrouding it in impenetrable darkness , after we pierced said darkness and found the locked door that we could not penetrate, we had to walk back, past the office and to the next pub.
