Open Post: Curiosity

[sporesprouter]

Tress is, as she often is, in her workshop. However, what she is doing in her workshop is not even close to her usual activities.

Instead of her usual array of spores and sprouter's gear, she has found some more standard tools which are sitting on the table next to a rubber mat that is holding... a toaster. She secreted one from a kitchen that isn't particularly used. To the side are a couple books from the library as well as her open notebook.

She turns the toaster upside down and starts undoing some screws on the bottom of the case.

After all, the best way to figure something out is often to gain practical knowledge.

Sagramore laughs. "Right. I've been lucky enough to grow old so I get what comes with it."

[sporesprouter]

"You're getting distinguished."

[sagramore]

Oh, Tress, you're so good at cheering him up. "Thank you. You do give good counsel, my lady."

"Look at it this way. You've been swept up by magic and sent to a strange mysterious mansion that doesn't actually belong to anyone, and you're not even alone in that. What's a little eyesight?"

[sagramore]

"A very salient point."

[sporesprouter]

"Well, I'm happy I could help."

[sagramore]

"Truly. You are a great help. "

[sporesprouter]

"It's only fair. You've been very kind since you've gotten here, so you deserve every inch of help I can give you."

[sagramore]

"Tch, you know how to embarrass me," affectionately. "I won't keep you from your work, but remember we should continue your lessons soon."

[sporesprouter]

"I'll remember. I'm looking forward to it. See you soon!"

He gives her a playful bow as he gets up and goes.
