*It was largely out of boredom that Sollux offered to help Liz make candles. He hadn't asked for anything in return, yet, but once she showed up he'd make sure she understood he'd expect something later on to make up for it. Just what depended on how annoying this was. She had to be able to do something interesting, at least. And he kind of

**Sorry for the delay in response. <3 **

[Liz had been a bit surprised at the offer Sollux had made to retrieve bee comb for her, having not even contacted anyone about it yet. However, that the post had been open to everyone was pretty much the only explanation for it; unless the troll was Psychic and keeping that detail to himself, which could very well be.

But, he'd offered, and that was something in its own. So when he'd asked her to help her make candles and to meet him at the hives, she was quick to respond.

She's making her way there now, blue eyes spotting the troll rather easily.]

Sollux, hey!

[Have a wave of hello, my fine troll!]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Pfft, its fine. Also i mourn the loss of spellcheck

*While Sollux was psychic, just not in that way, he'd been stalking her entry. Or, more accurately, staking anything Isabel put up.
He stands up straight as Liz calls out to him, nodding.*

Hey. Sup?

[bffpoltergeist]

Spellcheck is over rated anyway.

[Liz might want to learn how to seal entries at some point before she writes all willy nilly about stuff best kept from prying eyes, but oh well!! :D She thought isabel was a bit curt, but otherwise okay...

She smiles as Sollux rises and comes to a halt in front of him, her hands in the pockets of her pants. She gives a half shrug, tucking some hair behind her ears.]

Not too much, I guess... You sure you're cool with helping me with this?

[She gestures toward the hives, all but silent with the nearly dormant bees hidden away from the snow.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Yeah, but you'll owe me a favour in return.

[bffpoltergeist]

[She blinks at this, but doesn't look upset about it even if she's a bit surprised.]

Ummm, yeah, sure... I'm cool with that. Umm... what do you want?

[thii2ii22tupiid]

*Sorry Liz, 'doing things for people for goodwill/fun' isnt't something most trolls comprehend.*

I don't know yet. I'll figure something out. Probably nothing big.

*He shrugs and heads into the hives, over to where the already-collected wax is.*

[bffpoltergeist]

[Yeah, but that's okay... she'll help in any way she can anyway. She nods, though and moves to follow him into the hives.]

Have you been around bees before?

[She's watching those bitches with massive side-eye.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

I had some at home. They were a lot more useful than these, though.

We need some wicks, but they should be somewhere.

[bffpoltergeist]

[While it's cold, there are still some active bees buzzing around the hives and Liz eyes them wearily. She looks at the troll curiously at his reply, however.]

You had bees? What'd you, like, use them for?

[She then glances around for the small strings they'll be needing.]

Wicks. Right.

[She begins looking around, keeping a distance from the bees as Sollux does his thing.]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Computing.

*Yes, you heard him right Liz.
Sollux gathers up the already collected wax.*

We'll wok with this first.

[bffpoltergeist]

[Liz's brows raise in response to his answer.]

Computing? [And even though Sollux seems set on continuing as if he hasn't said something completely bizarre, Liz won't let it go so quickly. She does move to help him carry stuff, though.]

What do you mean computing? Are they, like, robots or something?

[thii2ii22tupiid]

What? No, they're bees. The ones here don't work, though, all the insects here are useless...well, most of them.

*The translator grub is nice.*

[bffpoltergeist]

What do you mean they 'don't work'?

[She eying the troll curiously.]

I mean, bees make honey and these guys look like they're, like, making honey, right?

[thii2ii22tupiid]

They're making retarded honey, all its good for here is making things taste sweeter.

*Cause that's totaly not what its for at all. Wait, what?*

[bffpoltergeist]

[Sollux, you are confusing as hell.]

Umm, like... what else is honey used for?

[thii2ii22tupiid]

*Sollux pauses and peers at Liz. Hm. Maybe this explained why humans were so stupid.*

On Alternia we have mind honey, it boosts your mental abilities.

*Or overloads you and makes your powers go wild, one of the two.*
