Morning, chief. Got a minute?

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

Awful kind of you.

[Ambles on inside]

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

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.

That so.

What'd you take for it?

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

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

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

Ah, excellent.

What kind of stuff have you got to offer?

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

...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?

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.

...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. ]

I got some coffee beans.

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

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.

How much scavenging we talking here?

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.

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

I can haul em back just fine.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

What have you got in mind?

...ah, makes sense. But speaking of tonight, what kind of liquor would you like me to make? I'll go to the kitchen ruin and grab the biggest container I can find to make sure you've got plenty of booze.

Oh, I got the house drinks covered. All you got to do's the custom orders.
