Nine Hundred Ninety-Nine Feet Below Fandom, Saturday

It was another fine day in the Hole. At least, according to any still working clocks another day had gone by. That was about the only way of tracking them down here, other than general bodily signals like hunger.

Speaking of. Travis had decided he'd had enough sad lumping again, and was attempting to Do Something. Since he still didn't have any ideas of how to get out of this hole, he was shifting his focus to the growing crowd of people down here with him instead.

Who was up for a family style spaghetti dinner today?

Dwight watched the cats for a moment before turning to Hannibal, who still had a flamingo hanging just over his shoulder.

"So what all still needs organizing around here? Can get the beds and couches at least somewhat righted and set up for people. Hopefully wont be needed for too long but who knows..."

He was hoping this whole adventure would be over sooner rather than later but he also knew one of the greatest secrets to keeping your cool in a situation was to have a plan, stay busy, and not let the mind wander uncontrollably. Besides, a big guy like him needed to keep busy. He didn't do too good with being idle and still for too long.

"The library, mostly," Hannibal said. There were books everywhere. "And downstairs the cabinets should probably be opened carefully and the records and CDs straightened. The pantry still needs a bit of work, but I would prefer to do that myself. Any furniture you'd like to set upright, feel free, but leave the harpsichord, please. I'd rather it suffer as little as possible."

Dwight nodded and thought for a moment.

"Probably start with some of the furniture. Give people some better places to sit and rest. If we bring a few of the tables out can help with meals too. Also might help with morale a bit to have some more comfortable options for sleeping for however much longer we have to be here."

He started towards the sitting area to see what state the couch and table and chairs were in.

"Mm." Hannibal nodded in turn. "Travis will likely want to sleep at the station. There are four bedrooms apart from the master suite, each with a double bed, and four couches, so should it get too crowded down here, the house can sleep fourteen if people don't mind doubling up."

He paused. "I am not doubling up with Beaker. That is my only stipulation."

"Fair enough stipulation." Dwight had not had much interaction with Beaker but knew enough to know it was not the safest bet to be anywhere in close proximity to him for any extended period of time. Something about random fires and spontaneous combustion....

"Anyway, I'll work on getting the couches set back up then start on the bedrooms from there. Just holler is you need anything" he said, heading out of the kitchen, Joni chasing after, batting at his shoelaces again as he went.

Hannibal's husband had been permanently on fire; he had no issues with that. He just didn't want to lead the...man?...on.

"Thank you." He nodded again as Dwight left.

Now, to start on the pantry.
