Who: Apartment O + you? door is open
When: Day 32, evening
Where: Apartment O
What: family dinner...?

[There is a stew bubbling happily over the fire; leaf "platters" and shish-kebabs(? something-chunks on sticks), salad, a somewhat overcooked stirfry, and a gourd filled with fruit chunks in milky liquid are arranged on the kitchen counter.]

Okay, guys, get it while it's hot!

[Your smile doesn't meet your eyes, you know]

You don't have to say you agree if you don't.

[madasahero]

[Stupid eyes. :/ Also, a little amused.]

Oh? You were the one who said there were rewards.

[overclocking]

Comparatively.

Wouldn't you rather talk about something happy than something sad?

[madasahero]

That is a good point.

So here it is: Wander and I have cleared a whole communal kitchen the other day, though we still need to clean it.

[overclocking]

...

Really?

[madasahero]

[nods!]

Really.

[overclocking]

Just the two of you, wasn't that- Are either of you injured?

[madasahero]

[:(]

Wander hurt his shoulder.

[overclocking]

Has he had it treated?

[madasahero]

Not by the gods, but we made him promise to seek a healer.

[My roomie can be a little difficult when it comes to taking care of himself. :X]

[overclocking]

Our apartment has at least two... You should come to us immediately, next time.

[madasahero]

[Nods!]

Thank you for letting us know.

[overclocking]

That aside... You'll need help cleaning the kitchen, won't you?

[madasahero]

Ah, it would be faster that way.

[overclocking]

You can consider me a set of helping hands, then.

[madasahero]

[Let's hope you won't ask how the two of us defeated a nest of vineacondas. << ]

I would be very grateful.

[overclocking]

[What I don't know won't hurt me??]

We all benefit from a kitchen, after all. Food is a pretty good unifier, too.

[madasahero]

[That's right. :( ]

Those were my exact thoughts.

[overclocking]

How does the saying go? "Great minds think alike"?

[madasahero]

I guess it cannot be helped.

[overclocking]

The saying, or the truth of it?

[madasahero]

The truth of it.

[Not that he would consider himself a "great mind"]

[overclocking]

[DITTO]

Maybe... Or it could be coincidence.

What kind of work needs to be done? You cleared most of the wildlife, right?

[madasahero]

[A little awkward]

It is more precise to say we killed the wildlife. Now it needs to be removed.

[overclocking]

[But why, that's what you're supposed to do 8|a]

Ah...well that shouldn't be too hard.
