- Ignatius: [smile] And that’s the last of them.
- Ignatius: [frown] Don’t go running off again, alright?
- [Kaden appears]
- Kaden: [smile] Hiya, son! …Why are you talking to the horses?
- Ignatius: I was walking past and they got out. It took a while to round them all up, but…
- Kaden: That’s my boy! Only here a day and already helping everyone out.
- Kaden: So, got any stories to share with your old man? Tales of heroism, cool adventures?
- Ignatius: [sweat] …Not really.
- Ignatius: What have you been up to?
- Kaden: [smile, closed eyes] Oh, y’know, this and that! Had some chores to do around camp in the morning, but they were easy as pie!
- Kaden: And after that, I had a nice long soak in the hot springs.
- Ignatius: [sweat] …What kind of encampment has its own hot springs?
- Kaden: One in a weird pocket dimension, I guess – I’m not complaining!
- Ignatius: [smile, closed eyes] Good point.
- Ignatius: I’ve never been to a hot springs before, though, Father.
- Ignatius: Could you teach me the etiquette?
- Kaden: [smile] Sure thing! First step, always bring your own towel! …You have a towel, right?
- Ignatius: [sweat] I’ll have to go get it. I’ll meet you there!
- [Ignatius leaves]
- Kaden: The horses got out?
- Kaden: [surprised] …Wait, I was meant to shut the gate after cleaning it?

- Kaden: [sweat] Dang it, I knew there was something I forgot!
- Kaden: How was I meant to know you’re meant to get the vegetables out of the ground AND put them in the-

- Ignatius: Dad?
- Kaden: [sweat] Oh! Heya, Iggy! Just taking a walk.
- Kaden: What are you up to there?
- Ignatius: These were lying in the field. It’s easier to gather them myself than send for someone else.
- Kaden: [smile, sweat] That’s very generous of you!
- Ignatius: [eyes closed] It’s what you and Father taught me.
- Kaden: Right.
- Ignatius: Besides, they wouldn’t last long exposed in this weather.
- Ignatius: [surprised] You don’t need to help!
- Kaden: No, no! Many hands make work light and all!
- Kaden: [sweat] Besides, the wagon’s right there! Right… in front of me.
- Ignatius: [smile] Thanks, Father.
- Kaden: No problem! Just lending a hand.
- Kaden: [sweat] (I’m not cut out for this farming stuff.)
- A-support
- [Kaden alone]
- Kaden: Floor mopped: check. Shelves dusted: check. Dishes rinsed: check.
- Kaden: [smile] Chores complete!
- [Ignatius appears]
- Ignatius: [surprised] Dad? What are you doing in here?
- Kaden: [smile] Your chores! You’re always taking extra time covering other people’s slack, so you deserve a break!
- Ignatius: But-
- Kaden: No buts! You’ve done loads ever since you came here! The least I can do is make sure you have an afternoon to kick back and relax.
- Kaden: [sweat] Especially since, ah… I’m the reason you had to work so hard in the first place.
- Kaden: I kinda have a habit of botching my chores.
- Kaden: [injured] Sorry!
- Ignatius: Don’t apologise!
- Ignatius: The only reason you mess up your chores is because you’re always helping other people.
- Ignatius: [smile] You’re inspiring.
- Kaden: [blush] Aww, Ignatius…
- Ignatius: [sweat] But I DO have to tell you that you needed to man the forge.
- Ignatius: …A few hours ago.
- Kaden: [surprised] I knew there was something I was forgetting…
