[Smart move, Magnus.]

[Muffet nods, picking up one of the pieces of coconut shell she brought with her.]

Is there anything in particular you'd recommend while working with these, as opposed to other kinds of wood? Given how many of them we have around the place, it seems important not to let them go to waste.

[proficienciesouttheass]

What do you mean? The type of wood and stuff?

[ He keeps rubbing at his chin, humming in thought.]

I mean, there's a lot of stuff around here. And the type of wood depends on what you want to make. You need something to proof the wood if you're using it for food and drink and stuff, or it's all gonna rot real fast. You don't want that.

[ Seems like Muffet's really got his focus with this, as he's clearly making plans and lists in his head.

Man, he really, really wishes he still had his pocket workshop. Not to mention he could work on much more complicated stuff than just dishes and bowls and whatever. This place needs a proper woodworking business or workshop for all!]

[prettypurpleparlor]

Hmm, and how does one proof wood, exactly?

[Food and drink is definitely relevant, given how much cooking and baking she does.]

[proficienciesouttheass]

Huh, well, there's lacquer and other stuff. Nnnnone of which we really have lying around.

[ He scratches at the back of his head. At this rate, he might as well make a grocery list to hand out to the Storyteller. ]

Well, this is annoying as hell.

[prettypurpleparlor]

[She smiles in rueful understanding.]

I'm regrettably familiar with the feeling.

[proficienciesouttheass]

[ He crosses his arms, tapping his fingers on his bulging bicep. ]

It's a pain in the ass. I have a perfectly good pocket workshop back home but didn't bring it with me.

[ He needs to learn to contextualize the goddamn things he says. ]

[prettypurpleparlor]

[Muffet tilts her head, curious.]

Do you mean a collection of tools that can be carried in your pockets, or are you referring to something a bit more like a dimensional box? At home, we have technology that allows us to store things away without needing to carry them around, but I don't think anyone's ever managed to fit an entire room in there.

[proficienciesouttheass]

The second one.

[ Magic, yo. Interplanar...interdimensional? Pocket dimension magic?? He doesn't know the details, okay, he's not a magic user.]

Just a whole dang workshop, right in my pocket. But I left it in my other pants.

[prettypurpleparlor]

That's quite impressive. At least it didn't fall out of your pocket on the way here- it would be a terrible shame to lose something like that.

[proficienciesouttheass]

Yup. Not sure I could buy another one of those...

[ He has no idea where he could find Garfield nowadays, and, honestly, he's not sure he'd want to anyway.]

But hey, we can still go through the basics, and just try and get more stuff to work with when the Storyteller pops in.
