how do you wanna face it? when the end is so close you can taste it
Basically the five’a us should take up construction side gigs, cause we’re fuckin’ brilliant at construction. The worst is a slammed thumb or a couple’a splinters - don’t ask me how it’s done, maybe the Hanged Man is just special like that an’ her magic is rubbin off on us.
More than a little happy that Jack got to restockin’ first, I flash ‘im a smile as I pass ‘im a box full’a clanging bottles. There’s a certain way I like it, but he’s likely to know the way they’re set up by heart, what with all the time ‘e used to to spend in here. “We need to catch up soon,” I tell him with a look that says exactly what kind of catchin’ up we should do. Eloise be damned, oops, I’m back to stake my temporary claim.
Theo gets through his staining fairly quickly, what with his very apt magic use an’ all. Quickly enough so that I notice an’ ask ‘im to start cleaning up.
Milo gets the thatch laid down atop the roof, sealing the magic (hopefully) in. An’ when he climbs back down, I ask ‘im to send a runner to a particular carpenter to come an’ pick up the excess wood an’ remove the palm trees.
@Zephyr’s rods are surprisingly beautiful, an’ when I come over to see his work, I’m openly touched that he’s taken the time to make them pretty. With the rods sent in their places, openin’ the hatches for light an’ an extra breeze, there’s just the floor to reset - the tables an’ chairs on top’a the floor he’d just lain.
Which leaves me ‘n Jack again. I got the fancy stuff locked up in the back room so I gesture for ‘im to follow me. An once we’re back there - I show him the tunnel to the Governor’s mansion. “Figured we could make use’a this at some point,” I say as I quietly lift up the hatch. “Goes to the Governor’s place.” Leavin’ ‘im to ask questions, I go to reveal the magic bag where the good stuff is an’ begin to put it in unsuspectin’ arms so we can look like we’re actually doin’ shit.

Last round! Thanks for sticking with it!
