Najaran Chores Catch-all

Who: Najaran and anyone
Where: Mostly Garden Car and Kitchen, but also other areas as she gathers dirty clothes and drops off clean ones.
When: Every day if this half month except the day of the mushrooms and the day after that.
What: NEarly every non-mission day, Najaran does like ALL THE CHORES. I condense it into an average of 1-2 posts an in-game month.
Warnings: Possible violence mentions? Other CWs will be in the subject line if they come up/as needed

Before Mushrooms

Najaran was her usual self when she did chores. A little less chipper perhaps, since so many of her friends seemed to be gone now but... But that was life. It happened. Outside of Goligan and her Master she never got to spend more than a few weeks with most people anyway. Or, really, any people. So she was used to this. It was still sad, but she could work through sad.

As usual, she had help working, and as usual her way of doing some chores was unlike other people's ways. When she did scrubbing Eidolon and Gremlin helped out. And she used an odd jack in the box looking thing that had a hand on the spring that popped out to help her get to the tall spaces.

When she did laundry and cooking however, that was when got truly weird.

She did both, for example, in the Garden Car. Ediolon and Gremlin helped her gather all the dirty clothes people left for washing, and in the Garden Car she had the largest pot she could find from the kitchen set up over a makeshift fire. She was doing the wash in the water heated over that fire. Clean clothes were hung on an improvised clothesline stretching between Knight's shoulder pauldron and the far wall.

Once all the washing was done, she'd leave Knight tending the fire, then she'd bring the pot to the kitchen, scrub it out - Ediolon made a great sponge! - and then gather all the ingredients she could find that would work well to make a stew. She, Ediolon, and Gremlin would carry the ingredients and pot and utensils back. I the Garden car, Knight would help cut and peel, as would the others, and she'd work on enough stew to stick the fridge. She always tried to make a few days worth each time, in case something happened and they couldn't cook for a few days.


After Mushrooms

Najaran still did her chores. Still had help. But her sunny smile was nowhere in evidence until someone spoke to her. She wasn't chatting with Goligan or her creatures, and her mind was clearly somewhere else. Somewhere... not overly pleasant.

She was thinking of Kigi and the others. The last time she had faced such large mushrooms, and all that had happened around the gates. But mostly about Kigi.

Occasionally she'd dash tears from her eyes. If asked she'd blame the onions. Even before she started cutting any...
