[color=f49ac2]"Well, Bart's lucky to have you then. It's not everyone that can stay professional and loyal and continue working for someone after a personal disagreement."[/color] [color=bc8dbf]"And don't worry about the misunderstanding. There are hundreds of monsters we haven't met yet, each one with their own peculiarities and dangers that we don't know about. Nobody should be expected to know everything about a monster they've only met for the first time,"[/color] Sylvia added, but then thought back to the moment they ripped off his shirt, and Sylvia, specifically, was trying to lick nectar off of his bare chest. Blushing (if plants can blush), Sylvia brought a large succulent leaf to cover her face in shame and whispered, [sub][color=bc8dbf]"...I'm sorry for putting you in such a compromising position..."[/color][/sub] As Neil invited them to join him on this next quest, Vivian declined, [color=f49ac2]"Yeah, I'm sure other quests won't be quite as nutty as the last one, but Sylvia and I really need to at least set up our workspace here first instead of gallivanting on adventures. Thanks for the invite though, maybe we'll take you up on it next time."[/color] With that, the sisters made their way to the kitchen and began taking an inventory of the utensils, cookware, and ingredients, making a list of essential baking supplies they might need to get. They would also survey the outside for a place to set up a small herb garden, and potentially, a greenhouse in the future. They would try to seek out Bart to discuss if the carpenters who were fixing the hole could also be commissioned to lay down some basic foundation for their herb garden.
