// the anesthetic never set in and i'm wondering where the apathy and urgency is that i thought i phoned in
it's not so pleasant and it's not so conventional, it sure as hell ain't normal but we deal, we deal //

Nate sees the smile curl on Nikolai's lips and considers it a great personal victory, cause for smugness and gloating when it's easier to be in the younger ascended's face. Darkeye is met with a simple smile and nod as well, the demi-god unaware of any issues that may have had the chance to sprout in his absence.
Cleaning goes quickly, the kind of task Nate can complete while zoning out, save for the occasional bothering of his husband, whiny complaints about the mess he's making and the work he's adding onto the cleaning, as if Sunjata is the only one guilty of that. As if it in any way makes the work go by slower.
They reconvene again, Nate standing back so he can twirl the broom he'd been using, though it isn't long before he fumbles it, and the wood goes clattering to the ground. "I'll replace the windows!" He takes advantage of the beat to claim his preferred task, bumping his hip against Sunjata as he goes to start making note of which windows need replacing. It's another task his extra hands come in handy for, keeping everything steady while he works. Thats not the only reason for his choice though, replacing the windows gives him a chance to snoop around, for nostalgia, for his own forgotten things, whatever.
Nate gets to work replacing windows and snoops through everything like a brat
