There was a lot of repair work to be done on a centuries-old gothic cathedral, and Ren was not what you might call a classical handyman.
She was in the basement of the church now, or... one of them. It seemed to have sub-basements. There could be catacombs down there; she didn't know. Whatever was down there, it had better not be vampires, because she'd absolutely had enough of that shit for one lifetime.
She was currently up on a ladder, swearing and grumbling and leaning maybe a bit too hard against the wall next to her because her stupid roommate had discovered anal two nights prior and she still hadn't recovered. She was trying to fix part of the roof, which had caved in. Because she wasn't actually good at this, what that mostly entailed was a lot of desperate caulking and holding stones in place.
"Should have saved this for the night time," she swore under her breath while she wedged a stone awkwardly into place. She was sick of just having plywood everywhere, though, and her roommate was too easily distracted to actually be much help with these things. Plus, she felt like his spare time would be better used practicing language, not serving as a glorified ladder that could also hand her things. It's not like he'd asked her to fix the place up. She'd just sort of taken it on herself for lack of anything better to do now that her meals were more or less guaranteed.
It definitely wasn't just because she liked having a steady list of things to ask Jean for, because she definitely didn't keep a long list on purpose to make sure she'd always have an excuse to keep him fed.
"Uuuuugh," she groaned as her shoulders cramped painfully. "This caulk is taking forever to dry... I feel like I could have just used gargoyle jizz and had better fucking results..."
