SCAWWY 😱 erin

The scientific name Campsis derives from the Greek word 'kampe' which means 'bent' and which refers to the branches that bend under the weight of the profusion of flowers. In the symbolism of plants the trumpet vine represents 'a fresh start', referring to the beginning of autumn. The flowers are used to prepare a tea to relieve menstrual cramps, as well as an emmenaogue to promote menstruation. The decoction made from the roots is taken as a tea to promote urination, as well as an antidote for scorpion and snake venoms, although this has not been proven scientifically.

I wouldn't mind making something too. I'm sure it'd be welcomed by everyone.

[She's not the greatest cook ever but compared to what the refectory has served...oh, she's sure she's a Michelin-certified chef in comparison to that]

[concoctive]

Can collab on somethin', maybe. Be worth tryin' out at least.

... hey, speakin' of. You think you could show me how to use the stuff in the houses here? I kinda figured out a few things in the village, but there's more things that actually work here.

[underinworld]

Depends. What kind of things?

[She's willing to! Inwardly, she's already pondering if she should drop the 'were you brought from the Stone Age?' comment now or later, because yeah, she has said that to multiple people, hah]

[concoctive]

The cookin' stuff, mostly, 'cause that's definitely way more than what we have in Orsterra.

I think I understand how to use the water in the bathroom, since there's water spouts in the village. [ sinks and faucets. he's doing great.

also it's like the 1600s but fantasy land so sort of yes. ] Other things?

[underinworld]

The water in the bathr--did you come from the Stone Age?

[Yeah, she couldn't hold back anymore upon hearing that he had to learn about the joys of modern plumbling. Damn it, Erin, it's not even a good line, stop it already]

Whatever, I don't mind. I'll show you the things. It's not all that complex.

[concoctive]

What's the Stone Age?

[ innocent but kind of amused, anyways, because he has a feeling this is something she's said to a lot of them. ]

I'm a quick learner, so there's that. And it means we can do some cookin' with these veggies sooner instead of later.

Come to this house. It's mine now, so I'm inviting you.

[Erin at least makes sure not to step on the pictures of the poor bipedal wolf who once owned this house -- pictures she left in a disorderly pile outside the house -- and goes in, leading towards the kitchen]

This is the most basic kitchen setup in the modern age. [She points at each thing she mentions:] Fridge. Stove. The thing that sucks the hot air and steam away from you. Fire extinguisher over there so you don't die when you screw up.

Long story short, the fridge is where the ingredients are, and the stove where you cook them.

[There already are a couple empty pans on the stove, probably left there by the former owner of the house]
