Thank you, Gladiolus.

[ Happily, she relinquishes the bag. It had begun to weigh heavily into her hands. What if her flesh failed her again? That's a thing that can apparently happen! Just because! ]

I had not expected half the inanity I found simply from running an errand. Someone put a sign around my neck and instructed me to "pretend to be contagious".

[ She still has no idea what that was about. ]

Will you carry these into the kitchen for me, please?
