Exactly! So many people don't even know how to fix a button, much less make themselves a sweater...

[they cut off a piece of waffle for themselves, taking a bite-- and humming happily.]

Oh, you do know how to cook.

[housewolf]

Buttons are such an easy fix too...

[He'll happily eat his own cooking.]

I've been doing it for so long, I'd concerned if I didn't.

[probe]

I've always done my own cooking, too. I have to trade you sometime, I'll bake something later!

[they take another bite, hopping up to sit on the counter next to the plate.]

[housewolf]

How long is always? I've been doing it since elementary... uh... do you know how school works? Is that insensitive...

[probe]

Oh, um- I do? But I never went, really...

[they shift a little uncomfortably, at that.]

It's been.... at least several years!

[housewolf]

Sorry, I don't want to make you uncomfortable.

[probe]

Don't worry about it-! It's fine, I'm not, I'm good.

[housewolf]

Are you sure? I won't mention it again.

[probe]

Really! You don't have to, um, avoid anything for my sake.

[housewolf]

Are you sure? I know you're... watching over us, but that's no reason to make you uncomfortable.

[probe]

It's- really sweet of you to worry, honestly, I appreciate it! But, um. I'll be fine. Promise!

[housewolf]

If you promise.

[ Then he'll take another forkful of waffle. ]

By the way, what's with that room of clones...?

[probe]

Y'know, I actually don't really know?

[they say this with their mouth partially full.]

I looked and they were clones of me, too, so... not just you guys that get that.

[housewolf]

Man. That's unsettling... You guys didn't put it there?

Did it just come with the base?

[probe]

It might have! Sometimes it's better to just not question things, honestly, it's not a bad way to go about living.

[housewolf]

Huh. So did you guys repurpose the base or something?

I'm just curious.

[probe]

Iiiii really could not tell you.

[they take another mouthful of waffle.]

[housewolf]

Uh... Secrets? Like the cloaks?

[probe]

Something like that!

[they sound cheery when they say it, happily munching away.]

[housewolf]

Something, huh?

[ How vague! ]

Can you take them off around us?

[probe]

-what, the cloaks? Um- probably?

[housewolf]

Yeah.

I'd like to see you. It doesn't have to be right now but... It would be nice to see my Avatar.

[ especially because omi's only wearing an apron right now. ]

[probe]

Well, um-

[they hesitate, fiddling with their sleeve.]

Maybe? I might be able to, I just-- you have to super promise not to tell anybody. Nobody finds out it happened. And also don't be freaked out.

[housewolf]

[ omi puts a hand on his heart. ]

I super promise.

[probe]

-okay, but I really mean it, nobody. I have, like, fifty eyes, trust me, I'm going to know.

[well- it's not fifty at the moment, but they could probably have that many if they wanted. they hesitate another few moments... and then they do, in fact, pull the hood back off of their head.]

So, um. Hi?

[envy would probably be a fairly normal-looking guy, if not for the eyes and the weirdly long fingers! his original pair of eyes both glow a faint green, and the pupils are narrowed; there's another eye currently open on one cheek, another on his neck, and a third off-center on his forehead. they all blink in sync with each other, for the record.]
