Re: @ peony

Yes. I got off fairly well, all things considered.

I've brought meals for your flock.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

Oh, thanks. Is it a quest?

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

It is!

Though it wounds me to think you'd believe I wouldn't also bring you food of my own volition.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

Well, it's more like I don't like food that much so it would be a weird first choice for a present...

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

Then it's a good thing it's not just for you.

[Have a pie.]

I had to make meals for everyone, so I apologize for not modifying them too much on an individual level.

Your brother has informed me that you don't have any manner of cold storage, so bring these to the cafeteria if you want to save some for later.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

No, it's fine, it's super helpful... t-thanks.

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

You're welcome, of course.

Do make sure to look after yourself.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

Yeah. Oh, while you're here...

[ gets up and goes to get two SMALL KITCHEN APPLIANCES ]

I decided your probation is over actually I just forgot about these for a while...

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

Ah?

[His eyes immediately light up when he sees what Aides has for him, only for his chest to tighten up with that guilty feeling he's come to really hate in this place. He smiles anyway. That's what he's doing all this for to fix, isn't it?]

Oh my. I'm touched that you still thought to finish them.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

I don't like abandoning projects if I don't have to. Plus, I was pretty proud of the designs so scrapping them woulda been a waste.

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

You could have given them to someone else.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

I could have, yeah... but you're the one who wanted them.

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

If you were being spiteful that wouldn't matter.

I appreciate your kindness.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

No problem. Give me lots of feedback on how using them feels but only if it's praise.

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

[Levi chuckles.]

I wouldn't dream of complaining.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

Uhihi~ good!

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

[Loads the appliances carefully onto the wagon.]

Your barn seems to be in need of quite a few upgrades too. I hope now you'll have some time to put toward that.

Re: @ peony

[hardpity]

Guess I might as well get some quests while I'm grounded.

Re: @ peony

[strateelgic]

Just don't overwork yourself.

[He says while overworking himself.]
