Who: Apt. ΠΛ, Apt. Y, interested fourth floor denizens
When: Day 45, early afternoon
Where: ΠΛ
What: Home renovations

[The door to Apt. Π is open, and Zexion's sweeping out the last remains of dried plants, soil and dust out with a makeshift (if functional) broom).]

Clearing in an expedient manner is commendable, but there are several ways of doing so that don't leave the entire floor reeking of noxious smoke.

Wait, if they weren't dead, why were their souls not in their bodies?

Because their bodies were stone.

[Looks over at the blocks Toph had freed.]

They were taken by the earth long ago, and there was naught left to them that would move again.

No wonder earthbending made you a little nervous.

Yes. I would not wish you to take it as a personal offence; it is simply that, after that time, some responses are very difficult to fully let go.

Got it. No playing earthbending pranks on you. [she's kidding... mostly. But pranks aren't fun if they terrify people]

Your restraint is appreciated. And I do not mean that lightly, nor in jest.

Thank you, Toph.

No problem -- I have plenty of other ideas.

[sets her (empty) bowl down, and stands up]

Round two of Toph versus the walls.

I highly doubt those are necessary either.

Will you want seconds after you're done?

Yep!

That much I can see to, then.

Do your best.

Naturally.

[let's get to work!]

[Stoooooone ugh there was a time when this wasn't nearly as disturbing.

Just going to. add some more water and mushrooms to the pot.]

[is trying to be as quick as she can, to spare your delicate feelings]

[My feelings are completely valid, thank you very much.

Actually . . . seems a little more relaxed this time. Still tense, definitely, but there's far fewer nervous, edgy vibrations from where he stands.]

[moves into the finishing touches phase]

How's this?

Exemplary.

If you don't wish to take the bricks with you immediately, you are more than welcome to store them here for another day.

Thanks. I'll grab a few. I'm staying at Shadow's place and they could use a table.

It is a far more expedient way of design than carrying out favours for the gods here.

Though, if you would wish for a double benefit, Ambre is always appreciative of those who have worked to improve their surroundings.

Like making new doors or like actually getting shelves and a table in a bare apartment?

Like decorating.

The particulars are, I think, a matter of your own taste.

Somehow I don't think it would work if it was to hers.

No, I would imagine not.

Well, better for me, then.
