They’re empty like ghosts and they’re creepy and weird like ghosts and their master has zombie bandages and they’re in a death game so it was close enough! Besides, you can give dead people apples. I’m pretty sure.
How'm I supposed to know, I just saw lots of fruit for dead people on TV, they put them in these wooden boxes with pictures and everything. Shrines or something.
[There's a grumble.]
Besides, it's not like they let us bring anything useful? And what the hell kinda thoughtful gift do you give an exploding penguin.
Psh, vessels makes 'em sound way too fancy, they're just penguin suits.
[So, into their suit insides... costumed innards... things. He's just waving his hand like it's nbd.]
Look, that's not the point!! [how did they get derailed this bad, it's because he has no attention span] The POINT is I was supposed to scare up some info. If you wanna go make friends with exploding ghost penguins then you can do that yourself!
[He's helping! (no) Now that he's not as distracted by impending disaster and baldness Nora's gone back to sniffing the air and he finally extracts himself fromthe sinking to drip his way over to the stove. There's some dishtowels there that he gives a glance to, contemplatively -- hmm, bacon, dishtowel, bacon...
Yeah he's going to use the dishtowel to dry himself off a bit instead of shaking himself in the kitchen. Future bacon is important.]
What've I been smelling this whole time, it's really distracting!
[He's already reaching for it with greedy hands but at least they're clean and dryish hands because he literally just took half a bath in the sink. The dishtowel is now around his neck so it's probably doomed to never be returned to the kitchen again.]
I know how to make bacon, I've watched a ton of people do it!
[Though he isn't super insistent because helping in the kitchen is ???? he's barely even been in a kitchen before the Foundation and then he probably got banned from a few almost immediately so there's that. He just wants the food to exist faster at this point so obviously. Obviously that's the way.
Anyway he's just going to crowd at the stove and metaphorically tailwag at bacon smell.]

[Their what.]
Their vessels. If you were going to ask them questions anyway, you should have asked what they like.

[She looks to the stove again. The bacon in the pan is actually plenty cooked by now, but there's also still a platter of raw meat.]
I was making bacon, actually.

[Immediate. But she sets more bacon on the pan and gets the stove going again.]

We can consider this wrapped up so I can continue dying in other parts of my inbox.]
