ngaaaaah i'm gonna go stir crazy at this rate
anyone got chores or something they need help with?
i can clean and do laundry, but i can't cook unless ya really like burnt stuff
or, i found a little bit of sewin' stuff, so maybe i could make a couple stuffed animals on
whaddya call it
commiseration?
...but i guess there ain't no real point to money here so
it could just be a favor or something!

i just really need to do stuff other than walk around all day lookin fer stuff that ain't even here...

commission.

（ god, he actually... knows way too much about the ins and outs of sewing plush toys from ishida. why did he ever listen to that weirdo in the first place... ）

and you shouldn't just offer to do people's chores. someone's going to take advantage of that.

[galateaed]

oh that's the word? thank ya kindly!! :)

? i'm offerin 'cause i got spare time tho
ain't it better t' help someone out than just sit around?

[zangetsu]

it's better to do something than sit around, sure.

but what are you gonna do if somebody replies who just wants to use you for free labour?

[galateaed]

say no i guess?
but it ain't like i mind workin'
and we don't need money or food here anyway
so is it that bad if they want me to do somethin' for free?

[zangetsu]

guess not.

but you could use the downtime to get good at cooking.

i can teach you some basics if you don't mind japanese food.

（ when the parentification hits just right from a young age... 🤌 ）

Are you a taxidermist or something? I have, alas, found no interesting beasts to turn into trophies yet.

[galateaed]

nnah i don’t got a single clue how to do that
might be kinda cool to learn tho!
bein’ able to keep something dead lookin nice forever like that is pretty amazing!
…mm but it’s hard to picture teach liking it, or calling it art…

ah! but anyway! i was talking ‘bout stuffed toys
y’know, like teddie bears, that kinda thing

[alloriginalheavenlypillar]

[Ah, the sort of things you give to spoiled young masters when they're children.]

I have yet to encounter anyone who was not far too old for such trifles.

[galateaed]

well i seen a buncha people 'round my age
so maybe some a them'll want one :)
specially since we're stuck in a creepy place like this... havin' something comfortin' like that might help 'em feel better

Are you speaking of commissions?

While chores are a task I am sure that others would express gratitude for, do you perhaps have other skills that may prove beneficial to others?

Sincerely,
Princess Zelda

[galateaed]

eh? yer a princess? for real??
uh! nice t' make yer acquaintance yer majesty!
lesse, other skills... i can sing and dance pretty good! oh, but maybe that ain't 'beneficial' exactly...
i can sew okay, and i know a lil' bit a first aid, and. um. er......
that... might be about it...... sorry

[luminously]

Perhaps I may be assuming, but there may not be others of royalty here, judging from your response.

Regardless, I am here to assist just as others wish to do.

No, I believe singing and dancing can bring others spirits up. Do not think of any of your abilities as unimportant as others.

First aid especially would be helpful, should our situation prove dangerous in the future.

Sincerely,
Princess Zelda

[galateaed]

well yer the first one i met anyway!
it's kinda exciting~ we got some royalty back home but they ain't anyone ya can actually meet
oh but if ya wanna be treated normal, i can do that!

and thank ya kindly fer sayin' so...
i'll do my best t' help out with anythin' i can!

If you are getting antsy, perhaps it is best to take up a hobby of some sort? There is no shortage of supplies in this city.

[galateaed]

nrgh... i dunno
i feel like i oughta be doin' something
y'know, productive
just playin' around by myself feels like a waste

Sorry about the delay, was busy this weekend!

[blackabyss]

Well, I have heard of those who turn their hobbies into a monetary opportunity.
Getting good enough at art to sell it, or at making clothes, or writing.
But if you are looking for some kind of work, well... just be careful. There could be people willing to take advantage of you.

no prob!

[galateaed]

i mean i do kinda got a job like that back home
but mosta the stores here just got food and stuff
even if i wanna practice i can't do a whole lot without supplies...

[theskyaccepts]

Uh, I wouldn't mind some help with laundry?
I've never been that good at it...

[He's someone who will mess up the amount of soap that goes in.]

[galateaed]

[Yaaay, a task to do! :D]

okay! i can help ya out with that no prob!
...long as the machines don't start eatin' clothes again!

[theskyaccepts]

I'd appereciated it!
But...is that a real risk?
Usually I just add too much soap

[galateaed]

maybe?
far as i know it hasn't happened fer a couple weeks, but the first day i got here the machines swapped a buncha clothes around
took way too long t' find everything again...
and one even spat out some extra stuff that wasn't anybody's

The hard thing is that we don't really need or want for anything, otherwise I'd suggest a jobs posting or something..........

I feel you though. I'm going absolutely bonkers just sitting here. Waiting for a hand to come out of the sky and crush me, hahahahahahahahaha

[Not literal, he swears. Not literal.]

I still owe you a trip round this place to gather some bouquets and stuff. Want to do that now? I have nothing better to do, that's for sure.

[galateaed]

[Oh good, someone who seems to be handling this as bad if not worse than him. That genuinely makes him feel a lot better!]

yeah... i can't remember when i had this much free time...
i know working too much ain't good, but having nothing to do just makes ya jumpy

oh! 'course, i'd love ta! :D
gettin' some decorations oughta cheer the place up a little too~

[blattella]

[When feeling down, secure yourself in the knowledge that at least you didn't actually have a Gregor Samsa moment, bedridden because you were bugging the fuck out due to paranoia!]

Both ends of the spectrum are no good, huh?? And I know we could make our own fun, but I don't know how to have fun to be honest. Not on my own.

Anyway. Meet you at City Hall? There were plants around there, you said? Or am I remembering wrong..........Either way we can go from there. I'll bring water and snacks, put it on my record.

[galateaed]

yeah... i hear there's a bowling alley now? i guess that's somethin' that could be fun...
never went much back home 'cause they're usually noisy
but if there's not that many people here maybe it won't be a problem?

and okay, sounds good!
there's a buncha little parks around, there oughta be one near a place as big as that
