Midnight Manor Boarding House, Tuesday Morning

Rosh Hashanah wasn't until sundown Friday but of course Steven wouldn't be Steven if he didn't panic and try getting stuff done in advance. So if any of the residents of the Boarding House swung by the dining room Tuesday morning they would find a display of apples, small jars of honey, and round loaves of challah. It was absolutely more than three people could consume in one sitting. Because Steven.

There was also a note which read In honor of the upcoming holiday. Free for anyone who'd like it. No obligations or those other things to worry about. Also Llew Detective Watts did the baking!

(Yes, complete with crossed out part. Again because Steven.)

Marc was not thinking about the time of year. He helped himself to an apple because why not? But otherwise he was focusing more on making sure things were going okay with all the things that were now his responsibility. His office turned out to be a good place for that. Nobody bugging them at home and located where he could see if there was anything that needed his attention either from the people who lived there or from anybody who came in from outside.

To that end there was a sign on the front door which read: Potential residents and visitors welcome! in one set of handwriting and then, underneath, Provided you're not an asshole trying to cause trouble in another.

No prize for guessing which sentence had handwriting which matched the note on the dining room table with the food and which one might match Marc's handwriting.

That taken care of Marc sat in his office, ate his apple, and tried to make heads or tails of the list of furniture the place still needed.

[Post, like the front door to the building, is open!]

Se the thing about filling a boarding house with furniture was it was a bit of a process. And so with more furniture recently oh so handwavely delivered, Dwight decided to swing by and see how things were going.

"Knock knock?" he called out as he poked his head through the opened door before stepping in. "Non-Asshole stopping by," he added with a chuckle as he did.

"No more trouble than I usually cause" Dwight assured. "Things are good. Was taking a quick break from the dressers and all. Figured I was due a visit outside of the whole furniture making side of things. Hows it going with the new residents?"

"Ah thanks" Dwight said with a grin. "And good to hear things are holding up well here for everyone. And Midnight too" he added with a small nod as he glanced around. Yeah that was still a bit odd,but getting a little less so each time. "Got a couple of tenants now I hear. How are they liking the place?" And ya know the furniture... not that Dwight would stoop to outright asking.
