"A pleasure to meet you, George," Hadama greeted with his usual stoic courtesy, but there was genuine warmth in his eyes as his own damp, webbed fingers gripped the human's in a firm shake. The mermanta was glad for any help that he could get.
A feeling that only continued as both men got to work with a will. By a fairly prodigious flexing of biceps and the use of a metal spatula the Tidebreaker was able to scrape the webbing from the counter with the help of the vinegar spray. He collected the mess in a burlap sack as he went, his expression unreadable as he peeled bits of sticky webbing from his callused fingers and shook it off. "Will you tell us about yourself?" he askedGeorge , seeing no reason to work in silence and curious about the stranger.
Who was not having the best time of it, unfortunately. George's success was mixed, but at least it wasn't all bad. The cabinets relented under his mix of spraying, waiting, and scrubbing and soon their interiors - blessedly web-free - were accessible again. But the oven... Well. Maybe it was because the webs were thicker in there, but they just would not budge, even after letting the spray soak in for a bit.
Jude , on the other hand, was meticulous and careful and it paid off. Hand-cleaning each one both removed the spider webs and kept the bottles safe. Perhaps the glass made it harder for the webs to attach, but regardless his task went both faster and more smoothly than the others.
Soon enough he and Hadama had their hands free and the mermanta looked around to see what else needed done. "We will need to clean the furniture as well," he rumbled, looking out over the chairs that had become stuck to their tables with thick, sturdy ropes of sticky silk. "I will clean the water side, if you can work on the land side. And the oven still needs work."
Round 2!
Feel free to switch up tasks or double up! There's lots of furniture to un-stick, or maybe two sets of arms will be better than one on unclogging the oven!
- Keep working on the oven
- Start unsticking the tables and chairs from each other
- Hadama will clean out the tide pool water
