The mortar was a bit of a pain to work with, if Alys was being honest, and her first attempt at loosening it up failed spectacularly. She scowled at the bucket as she added more water, struggling at first to stir it because it was so thick. Once she had enough water added, though, it was almost a pleasant job to fix up the fireplace. She couldn't help a small smile as Soleil sang through her work, charmed in spite of herself by the young woman's good cheer. Her fingers itched for her cards, curious about what a past-present-future spread might reveal about the girl and how she'd come to be the way she was, as well as what she might yet face.
But there would be time for such things later. For now, she should focus on the tasks at hand. Alys elected to help with the windows, making her way to the front door and pulling out the old window panes, carefully replacing them with new glass. If all went well, they could soon celebrate Tal's new space. And even though he said that he and Boreal could handle the rest, Alys would stay until the work was done. What were friends for, after all?
