Sanitary Living [period 5, Tuesday]

"Hi!" Hannelore greeted everyone when they entered the Danger Shop again. "Okay, so sometimes we're face with the unpleasant fact that teeny-tiny places get dirty. Like, super-cramped, no fun for anyone kinds of places. I mean, not really mine because I don't have a lot of crap, but for you guys. And it gets all dusty and you find stuff that you haven't seen in years and -- "

She broke off with a shudder. "Sorry. You guys heard about the boogeyman when you were kids? I was more scared of dustbunnies. Um. Anyway. You guys get to clean under beds and couches and behind stuff today. And...yeah, I'll be over here, not watching unless you need me." She launched into a quick explanation of how to keep stuff organized as they found it, gesturing to large containers that she assured them that she had sterilized.

Not that anyone probably asked.

[wait for OCD. Okay, the general idea is that you ping into one of the subthreads and clean with a partner -- and you can totally mod stuff under the bed and behind the fridge, etc, within reason -- and at some point in the thread, I'll ping in with something for you to interact with, whether it be bugs or a lintmonster or whatever crack falls out of my head at that moment.]

The wee mouse launched into a tirade about how difficult it was to maintain a mousy home, and how stupid humans clearly never cared and now they had sent their giant to stomp on things and did he know how difficult it was to rebuild a mouse nest?

It all probably just sounded like squeaking.

Sure, it was just squeaking, but it was angry squeaking!

"Uh, I'm sorry?" Sam offered. "You know, I don't know how safe it is for you to live under there. Maybe I can just clean a little?"

The mouse continued to squeak in outrage. It was not dirty and it was perfectly safe, thank you abnormally large human.

"Or, I could just go back over there and leave you alone completely?"

Yes, Sam was giving in to a mouse. Stupid weakness against cute, small things.

The mouse might have almost looked like it was making shooing motions. Funny, that.
