"Another week and I'd've had to call an exorcist."
The less said about that bread the better, honestly. It was good bread, once upon a time-- high-end whole-grain sourdough, baked locally, from heritage varietals. There's a good chance that, off in some landfill, this primordial ooze will spawn the exponentially-great grand-progenitors of the species that will someday supplant humanity as the dominant species on her earth. But, thank God, it's not her problem anymore.
"Deal." She flashes a small smile; the unspoken offer of dinner is a welcome one. It's not quite fair to say this kitchen has never seen a home-cooked meal, but, well. It hasn't seen many.
"I have a new couch coming next week, but we could go find some chairs at Ikea." And frozen meatballs to go. She's not a monster.
