[has heard singing and is wandering around the apartment, trying to find the singer before finally discovering her in the kitchen and just watching for a while]

...Keeping busy?

[mother_rem]

[jumps like she just got caught doing something bad before she looks and OH HAY HATORI s'up]

A-ah, yeah. Trying to.

[seahorse_dragon]

You seem to be doing a good job.

[mother_rem]

Mm. There isn't much else I can do when I'm not at the orphanage or Ajisai, so I've got to find something to do, right?

[monsterepellant]

Sounds good.

[mother_rem]

...What? That... Why did that post?!

...Th-thank you, Doumeki.

[monsterepellant]

Because the City likes to play tricks on people like that.

Welcome.

voice;

[mother_rem]

Or maybe it's just my luck.

...Thank you for inviting me to lunch the other day.

[adelicateclover]

Uwah! I like that song! You sing it really well!

voice;

[mother_rem]

Aha... Thank you, Suu. I'm sure you could sing it better, though.

[adelicateclover]

Um, maybe... But I like to hear others sing too!

What are you doing?

voice;

[mother_rem]

I always liked your singing voice, Suu.

Washing dishes.

I'M SORRY SHE'S MEAN

[pitfallen]

You have a dishwasher and you don't even use it?! Why don't you just donate it to less privileged citizens!?

............................... Though........... I guess that would use up more electricity and water, which would only make the bills skyrocket.....................

................ STILL, IT'S A SLAP IN THE FACE OF THE WORKING CLASS!

SHE'S BFFS WITH MERYL, SHE'S USED TO IT

[mother_rem]

I use it when one of us is sick or when there's too much to do by hand.

Excel is friends with Meryl when Meryl doesn't have 9191597301 other friends :X

[pitfallen]

Yeah, well... I have to do all my own dishes by hand every night.

........... Not that I actually have that many...... Or that I ever really cook that much extravagant stuff....... Or that I ever actually get sick...........

....................................... Uh....... Wait, what'd I say....?

SHE GETS AROUND A LOT. D:

[mother_rem]

It's not always a bad thing to do it by hand. It gives me time to think about things without many distractions.

[nico_oniichan]

...What is that?

voice;

[mother_rem]

...It's a song called "Loop".

voice;

[nico_oniichan]

Sounds nice.

voice;

[mother_rem]

It is. I don't sing it very often.

Are you-- ....Mm. How have you been resting?
