[ Matt is still thoroughly flabbergasted by this reveal, and the specifics don't actually do much to enlighten him, except insofar as he can agree that gardening and preparing tea are soothing activities. Maybe if the definition of "domesticity" is stretched to include crafting, of the sort Matt employs to enchant objects, he understands a little better.

At the same time, the fact that he's never imagined a spirit could enjoy doing laundry and doesn't totally get it only makes him more curious. Some of the spirits he's encountered seemed to like the sensation of having a physical body--or at least what they could experience of it through him. So what else might they be into? ]


Oh, [ he chuckles. ] "Troublesome" sounds right. But I guess if I could've commanded someone to make me snacks when I was a kid, I might've asked for mostly sugar too.

[ Matt technically could command people to make him snacks as a kid?? But his mother always checked in eventually. ]

That's interesting ... I think of cooking as something that's really creative. What's your process, are you thinking of things you've tasted before, or that your--contractee has?
