[54] - [action] & [audio]

[Jacketed and scarfed, Buffy is hard at work on the lawn of House Seven. She has in her hands a most fierce and gruesome weapon--long and pronged, wickedly effective for roping in and dealing with rogue...leaves. Yes, today Buffy is devoting her time to raking the leaves on the lawn (a task she takes even into the early but dark evening). And while ( Read more... )

totally needing a time out, !audio, !action, buffy the pirate slayer, buffy's relationships are cursed, domestic bliss is not to be found here

I'll bet Walter left one around. [There's briefly a hint of "grumpy", possibly even a little "sulky", in her tone for the first sentence, but that goes away as she continues.] I don't know about better, though.... How do you even make a better rake?

[audio] slaying October 23 2010, 13:57:44 UTC

Maybe one with wider prongs. Or closer prongs. Or maybe even less prongs? I...I gotta admit, I'm not exactly a yardwork expert. But anything's gotta be better than this thing.

Maybe? You're probably just being impatient. Getting rid of leaves is a long and boring job no matter how you do it.

[audio] slaying October 23 2010, 18:30:47 UTC

Not if you've got a leafblower. But I haven't found one of those yet.

[audio] xelhes October 23 2010, 19:02:41 UTC

...A leaf blower?

[audio] slaying October 23 2010, 19:45:54 UTC

It's a machine. And it...blows leaves.

[audio] xelhes October 23 2010, 20:09:44 UTC

How would that help at all? The wind's bad enough on its own for sending leaves everywhere.

[audio] slaying October 23 2010, 23:24:07 UTC

Yeah, but with one of those? You can control where the leaves get blown.

[audio] xelhes October 24 2010, 01:53:49 UTC

Really? ...That sounds like it would be pretty hard, though, keeping track of all those leaves.

[audio] slaying October 24 2010, 23:19:37 UTC

...And all of this is exactly why I'm really not cut out for domestic chores.

[audio] xelhes October 25 2010, 03:51:02 UTC

They're not that hard, honestly. It's just that no one really likes them. Well, most people don't, anyway.

[audio] slaying October 25 2010, 14:34:16 UTC

And you know someone who does?

[audio] xelhes October 26 2010, 06:19:45 UTC

Some people like cooking and some people like gardening. And I've known a few people who seemed obsessed with keeping their house clean. ...I can't say I've ever met a fan of laundry, but there might be someone out there. [She shrugs.] I don't think anyone likes raking leaves very much, though.

[audio] slaying October 26 2010, 12:24:51 UTC

I'd happily take ten loads of laundry over this.

[audio] xelhes October 27 2010, 03:21:33 UTC

...Yeah, so would I. But I guess I'll have to do it now.

[audio] slaying October 28 2010, 01:24:52 UTC

I guess you could try and convince someone else to do it for you?
