Day 75, morning

[knock knock]

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

[ opens the door. ] Hey there~

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Morning, chief. Got a minute?

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

I sure do. [ he steps aside. ] Come on in.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Awful kind of you.

[Ambles on inside]

I heard you been talking to Henry some, about a party we got coming up.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

Don't mention it. And, yeah, I showed him that neat little trick of mine and he mentioned that you'd both been planning to throw a little something something. I might be able to help.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

That so.

What'd you take for it?

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

We still have to talk about that, actually. But I'm not hard to please.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Well, that's what I'm here for.

So -- what're you looking for, chief?

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

Ah, excellent.

What kind of stuff have you got to offer?

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Well, I'm aces at laundry. Can get blood stains out like there weren't even there.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

...an interesting skill. I'm real good at not getting hit, so I don't think I'll have to worry about that. I can send you some of the people I beat up though, since they may need that service. [ a lighthearted chuckle. ] I do enjoy food, and more to the point... cooking it. Maybe you can help me with either of those?

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

I ain't the greatest at cooking, but I know my way around the forest pretty good by now.

Could bring back vegetables or fish, or even meat.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

...separate from this, let me know if you'd like to learn. [ but back focusing on one thing at a time. ] I wouldn't mind a hand in scavenging and foraging. I can hunt well enough, and I actually enjoy that, but picking veges or finding edible berries and fruits is... not exactly my kind of fun.

I guess I should also ask if you have any fancy delicacies for food, drink, or dessert. [ because why not. ]

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

I got some coffee beans.

The real kind, not the sort at the shark cafe.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

Oh, coffee beans?

If you're willing give me some of those along with some help with scavenging, then I think we got ourselves a deal.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

How much scavenging we talking here?

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

A few trips? I can come along with to haul stuff back if that makes it easier. I'm working on trying to get a decent kitchen in Snail. Or, well, I guess at this point just a stash of food for when I can inevitably set something real up.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Hardly a trade if you're doing the carrying, is it?

I can haul em back just fine.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

Alright, fine, but I can at least come with right? Maybe you can teach me a little something about what's good out there.

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Oh, so you're in it for the lessons.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

I know a bit about foraging... but you've been here longer and this place is strange, so why not get a few pointers?

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Well -- seems to me you're getting an awful good trade.

But I reckon I can make an exception for a pretty face.

Re: Day 75, morning

[childeishly]

And I don't mind filling your cup on occasion. [ childe circles him with a predatory grin. ] Do you have time now?

Re: Day 75, morning

[nowyouseemenowyoudont]

Got some things still to get ready for tonight, but I'd wager I can spare a while.

What have you got in mind?
