When: Day 34, morning-noonish
Where: YOUR cabin, yes yours

[good morning and hello teams, someone's knocking at your door. sure she probably could have sent a text for whatever she's about, but hey when you know where everyone lives anyways...!]

Knock, knock!

[alternatively, what do you all get up to on your home time?]

I super did!

[sighs lightly like

what am i to do with you.]

It is fine. I am learning. Was there anyone else you wished to invite along?

I can't really think of anyone else that would be into a lab and vipers.

[snakes are the worst, actually, but she says nothing to this effect.]

That sounds like you came to see me.

Yes? Because I did?

[

MIND BOGGLING.]

...I do not understand why.

Beeeecause I thought you might want to see my lab? ...I'm pretty sure that was, like, literally the second thing I said when I got here?

...Nevermind. It is not important. I apologise for the confusion.

Um. If you don't want to see it— that's fine?

—No. [her tone is its usual quiet, but hurried.]

I very much wish to see it.

[she just doesn't understand something, but she's also dumb]

Okay. Well, you can come by whenever you're ready. That's where I'm going to be most of the day, otherwise. Most of every day from now on, really.

Understood.

[she means that on more than one level, considering that is where she would be if she had a lab.]

Did you want more coffee?

No thanks, this is already my third or fourth cup this morning.

...Is that normal to do?

It's not abnormal? I just needed more than two today.

I do not often drink coffee, so I do not know. It is not something I derive energy from, at any rate.

It's pretty case-by-case. There's a lot of people who don't need any caffiene in the morning.

I see, duly noted.

[she will collect Eliza's dishes for washing and putting away.]

Yeah. It's also why decaf is a thing.

True enough. Were the cookies acceptable?

[they were obviously made very recently and so very tender and moist.]

Oh! They were more than acceptable, they were delicious.

[Her face grows pink.]

Ah, were they? I am glad, then.

They were! Thank you for letting me have some.

You are welcome to them whenever you wish.

Really??
