Man, Leona, would it kill you to put your dirty clothes in the laundry basket instead of leavin' 'em everywhere but? Anything you toss on the floor is gonna get sucked up by the vacuum cleaner, y'know.
No, I think I do, 'cause you're not getting the message otherwise! You gotta learn to clean up after yourself. Look at this expensive fabric, crumpled up like a piece of trash. I weep for your clothes. And there's more on the floor over here! Isn't this what you wore yesterday? The least you could do is pile everything you take off in the same place! Wait, what's this? Sportswear...? Hey, Leona. You tore a set of sportswear at a Spelldrive game not too long ago, right?
You've got a spare set, unlike me. That part's fine, but... That's the only set you've got until your new backup duds arrive, so you gotta keep it clean. We went over this already, man! And yet it's sitting on the floor in a dirty heap! You've got flight class tomorrow, don't ya? What were you gonna wear?
sigh* You're lucky I'm used to this already. It's getting late, though. If I don't get it washed ASAP, it's not gonna be dry in time for tomorrow. Okay, Leona, I'm gonna put the rest of this stuff in with this load. Let me know if you need any of it faster, okay?
He's already asleep. Sheesh. Okay, I'm gonna do this my way! Hup! Oof. It's heavy carryin' laundry for two every time I haul a load. Now to get the detergent, and... Uh-oh. It's empty. Oh yeah, I guess I DID use the rest of it on the last load I did. Hey, Leona!
He's never gonna let me hear the end of it if I wake him up now. Fine. Guess I'm going shopping at the school store. I'll expense it to Leona's account.
Welcome to Mr. S's mystery shop! Ah, you're wearing a white coat. Let me guess: You ran out of something for a lab experiment? You can find chemistry components on the shelves in the back. Potionology components are the next shelf over, and for alchemy—
Whoa, slow down. I'm just in lab wear for laundry day. It'll cost me more if I get my dorm uniform dirty, y'know? On that note, I'm looking for some detergent— my usual brand, the pricey one that smells nice. I can't find it where it normally goes. In fact, ALL the detergent seems to be gone from the shelves.
Yeah, I'll bet you are. Wonder if I could get Jack to share some of his. *sigh* It's strange, though. Normally there's more'n enough detergent to go around. What gives?
Okay, then let's get your errand taken care of! Lucky me! I get one load's worth of free detergent... Shyeheehee. Say, what were you here to buy? You said you were here this morning already, right?
It's exactly what it looks like—the whole Heartslabyul Dorm is painting the white roses red. The paint I bought at the school store was for the freshmen who haven't quite mastered color-changing magic yet.
You had that line loaded up and ready to fire, didn't you? Man, this was your goal all along! Look, I don't want any part of this stupid, pointless job.
Ahhh. Nothin' like soaking up the sun. I couldn't ask for better laundry weather. Too bad I ran out of detergent, or I could've washed the lab coat with the rest. Okay, now to hang this stuff out to dry. I'll start with Leona's sportswear.
Man, it's big! Guess that goes with the territory when someone gets a different diet and upbringing than the rest of us. Jack's got a voracious appetite too, actually. I wish I was a little taller sometimes, but I bet that would come with extra eating expenses...
If it's nice enough outside to drag YOU outta bed, the clothes're gonna be dry as a bone in no time flat. You wouldn't believe what kinda hijinks I had to go through to get this all taken care of.
Sheesh. Maybe I DO get hung up on details, but I don't think he gets hung up on 'em nearly enough. He wouldn't even notice if I kept more in change than what the detergent cost, I bet. "It's one 'detergent,' Ruggie. How much could it cost? Ten thaumarks?" Talk about outta touch. Far be it from me to look a gift horse in the mouth, though. Cha-ching!
