[Alex’s broadening smiled is twofold: one, because Anders was smiling so freely and two, because the answer was without hesitation and truthful. If Alex wasn’t doing one round of Happy Homemaker, he was doing another round of it elsewhere. Anders knew him perfectly well enough that he was content sewing, cooking or cleaning.]
Alas! Have we truly fallen into such predictable patterns??
[He saunters on over and kisses the Mage lightly, doing his best to not get him all over with flour.]
I don’t suppose you’ve picked up at all in there yet, have you? God help you if I ever take on the chore that is your room, Anders; you’ll never find anything ever again. Let alone that I can’t imagine what the sight of an uncovered and clean floor might do to you.
[Who’s being cheeky now? His tone is teasing through all of this, though, and after a beat he falls silent, lips pursed.]
Though… the added benefit of not taking a quill or book to the back while we’re tumbling about might make it well worth the effort.
