It is distinctly lacking in crosswords.

[goazon]

Punch Walls
Punch faces that aren't Rey's
Never crosswords

[apparare]

That sounds like a hist of hobbies rather than chores.

[goazon]

You need a more soothing hobby.

[apparare]

Maybe I could find some if you would stop inundating me with puzzles.

[goazon]

Clearly. If I would just be quiet maybe you would have discovered quilting.

[apparare]

At least it would be a useful hobby. Space is cold.

[goazon]

To me everywhere is a little cold, but I doubt I'd get to benefit from your quilting.

[apparare]

I doubt anyone would, because I am not taking up quilting.

[goazon]

I don't know if it's to your benefit or detriment.

[apparare]

How is that?

[goazon]

Well, now nobody has a quilt for one.

[apparare]

Do quilts come according to size? 'Built for one?' 'Perfect for three?'

[goazon]

If they do I bet it's as full of poodoo as the serving suggestions on food. Serves three my ass.

[apparare]

Not everyone eats sixteen tacos in one sitting. Most people don't, as a matter of fact.

[goazon]

If they're not meant for one person, then why is buying a box of sixteen an option?

[apparare]

I think the intention is to share them. What kind of serving size is 'a box?'

[goazon]

If you get the twenty taco box you have four to share.

[ Which, by the way, he threw away. ]

[apparare]

Debating with you about the finer points of portions is also not on my to-do list, particularly when I know there is no end in sight.

6 down is 'Iakaru.'

[goazon]

So it is, thank you.

Did you finish?

[ No you're smiling. ]

[apparare]

( It takes a second - maybe a full minute - while he oscillates between one answer and the other. )

I did.

[goazon]

Let me see.

[ For his handwriting of course. How much messier could it be? Why does that matter? This is weird. ]

[apparare]

( It takes a moment - because, admittedly, he hadn't finished entirely when he said he had - but eventually a clean, detailed upload of his crossword comes through on her end. Infuriatingly, all the answers are correct, and he has even corrected her spelling in one or two places, even though he is impressed at her knowledge. )
