Eh? She's a flatmate. She pays a quarter of the rent. Along with the

Ah. Oftentimes "flatmate" or "roommate" is a codeword meaning
TTTSNBN-mate, and sometimes it isn't. One generally has to poke
it with a pin and collapse the quantum state to find out.

I'd rather think if one poked it and it turned out to be a codeword, the
other half would collapse _one_...
