Mission Spam P4 (Hyde, Rebecca) [PRIVATE] (DONE)

OOC:

Spring Cleaning:

---

The previous mission involved Hyde working with Rebecca again, with the objective this time being to shop for their mutual elderly client, Mrs. Shizuka. At the end of that shopping spree, they returned to Mrs. Shizuka to hand over the items they had gathered for her from the local vendors for the items before collecting the proof of mission completion from her since they would need that when turning in the mission reports later. Fortunately, they were able to complete all this far quicker than he had anticipated, and that gave him pause to contemplate their next course of action

Hmm, that did not take as long as I anticipated initially...Therefore, it would probably be possible to accomplish the second mission today as well...

Hyde mused thus silently before suggesting his plan of action to Rebecca while hoping that she would agree to it readily since he did not want to drag this mission pair out further than necessary

"Since that shopping mission did not take all that long to accomplish and because we now have more than half of today remaining to work with, what say we head over to Mr. Okimura's residence to finish off the other mission of this current pair we are undertaking, Ms. Rebecca?"

After saying that, Hyde fell silent and waited for Rebecca's response to his suggested strategy to deal with the next mission on their mutual list.

Hyde had been waiting patiently for the next turn of events when he heard Rebecca ask him about the objective for the next mission, so he recited the details he had memorized from the mission scroll for their next mission.

"Our next task will be to assist Mr. Okimura with the spring cleaning of his house because it is too much to handle for him alone. Therefore, this one promises to be more physically taxing for us than our last mission turned out to be in the end. That said, there will be three of us working away at this challenge, so it should be possible to complete this mission by the day's end if we push ourselves to a moderate extent."

Hyde said and then, he heard Rebecca mention how she was looking forward to being finished with these missions so that she could get back to her forging and her recent project of crafting a puppet armor.

"Indeed, my sentiments exactly...though, in my case, I am most eager to finish these missions since they will allow me to procure some much-needed finances that I can then use in my research projects...That aside, you mentioned that you were working on a puppet armor...but what sort is it, if I may ask?"

Hyde inquired of Rebecca since she had confirmed his impression that she was an artisan, and he was curious about her crafts since he was always looking for new sources of inspiration for his own crafting recipes.

Hyde was bemused as he saw Rebecca express her distaste visibly for having even more work to do before the day was done.

"Indeed, but if it is any source of comfort, you will be happy to know that this is the only other mission we have to do for today...and then, we both can close the proverbial book on today's missions to go home for a nice, long, and well-deserved rest, Ms. Rebecca...or in your case, a nice blacksmithing session in the forge"

Hyde spoke thus to Rebecca as they both entered Mr. Okimura's home after being welcomed in by him and then noticed how she went to work quickly by heading to the closet and bringing out a set of cleaning supplies for them to use in this spring cleaning mission.

"Of course, we shall keep up our mutual record of stellar work just as we have been doing in all our other missions till now."

Hyde said to Rebecca while standing beside Rebecca and filling up his bucket with water, after which, he laid out his allotted cleaning rags on his bucket's rim so he would not have to carry them. Then, he headed off to the library while carrying an extendable feather duster he had gotten from Mr. Okimura's closet and started to clean up the man's library, section by section. In the middle of this cleaning session, he heard Rebecca answer his earlier query about her puppet armor from her current location in the kitchen where she was presumably cleaning the appliances by this point.

"That is quite the regal name for your puppet armor, Ms. Rebecca. So, I presume you will design it to look like those knights we see in fairy tales, with full-body metal armor, a luxurious cape, and a great sword or lance for a weapon?"

Hyde called back to Rebecca in a loud enough voice so that she could hear him, and after pausing to collect his thoughts, he called back to her again while finishing off dusting the bookshelves and mopping the library floor.

"That is very true, a puppet should be priced at about the same value as an exquisitely crafted sword...However, perhaps it is because the sword has some special quality that makes it cost that much more than the puppet?"

Hyde called out thus to Rebecca as he wondered aloud about the reason for the price difference she mentioned between the puppet and the special sword. Then, he finished cleaning the library and headed to the living room where he found Rebecca mopping the floor and appliances. So, he went to work, cleaning the windows and furniture in said house area so they could get the whole living room cleaned more quickly. It took a while to complete, but the living room cleaning was eventually completed satisfactorily just like the library and the kitchen. Then, Hyde notified Rebecca of his plan to clean the bedrooms and the study next and headed off to these locations to clean them with a refreshed set of cleaning supplies from the closet. This ended up taking the rest of the day since there were quite a few valuable antiques in Mr. Okimura's study and a slew of valuable paintings by renowned artists in each of the bedrooms, forcing Hyde to clean slowly so that he would not drop or break any of these items that were precious to the man. Once that was done, Hyde headed to the attic to clean that up next and reorganized the contents of that section of the house according to Mr. Okimura's detailed instructions. Thus, Hyde managed to finish his part of this spring cleaning mission for Mr. Okimura successfully and then headed over to the entrance of the man's house to wait for Rebecca to finish her end of the mission so that they could collect their proof of mission completion from the man.
