Need any help cleaning up? I could probably find a vacuum for you...

[redhead_rabbit]

A what now?

[handy_psychic]

Oh! A vacuum's a machine that sucks up dust from the floor and holds it in a bag that you can just dump into the garbage later.

[redhead_rabbit]

"Modern technology", yeah?

[handy_psychic]

Yup! I'll borrow one from Housekeeping and bring it over.

[redhead_rabbit]

Thanks! I'd like to see how this vacuum thing works, yeah ♥

th-the walking wikipedia wants to help

[moe_rapier]

Major technological advancements are always made to maintain a clean and happy home with less effort than scrubbing the floor down on your hands and knees. If Bridge's demonstration doesn't suffice, I have a few things at home I'd be happy to show you in action.

Here, I'll turn them off now so I have something to work with later. Arthur certainly does a good job of giving me things to clean up. [Pentaps here, then an unheard sigh.]

the bookman wants to pick the walking wikipedia's brain XD

[redhead_rabbit]

Technology sure does make things easier, yeah. It's a wonder how people haven't become lazy, yanno?

What else is there? Some mechanical mop?

Did Arthur end up with a dust monster too?

[moe_rapier]

It can definitely lead to some laziness, yes, but convenience always leads to a little slacking off.

There exists a machine like a vacuum that you can push over smooth, hard floors to scrub and wash. There is also a device that allows you to wash carpet. Lastly, there was a breakthrough, compact robot that can vacuum and mop unsupervised. I actually have one of those in my closet; they call them 'Roombas'.

Arthur himself can be a dust monster. I'm always finding wrappers and plates of half-eaten food sitting around somewhere. Even with all of these handy devices, I'm still doing daily chores.

[redhead_rabbit]

No way. This modern stuff is amazin' yeah. None of it sounds familiar. Is this Roomba thing intelligent? Do ya need to feed it?

Wow, sounds like a disaster.

[moe_rapier]

Unfortunately, no. I tried accessing it to see if it perceived, but it doesn't. It follows orders and cleans the floors, a very basic computer program. I don't need to feed it, but there is a little station where I plug it in to charge the batteries.

[redhead_rabbit]

Sounds fascinatin'. I'd like to see one of these Roomba things in action. Or at least a book on it

[moe_rapier]

I can lend you the instruction manual that came with the box, if you'd like.
