Three Seashells - Action/Written
[Ariel's closet is getting ridiculously full. With every piece of clothing that got dirty, she got a new one rather than washing it, because the washing machine was a mystery that she couldn't figure out and didn't really want to figure out. But forty dresses and other such things in her closet? This is a little too much.
So, Ariel's in the back of the kitchen where the washer and dryer are, and she's got a frown and a squint on her face as she leans to try to figure this out. The clothes go in... here, right? Right. That's the only place they can go. And then... This detergent stuff goes in with them. How much goes in...?
Surely, the more that goes in, the cleaner it'll be, right?
...
Well.
Twenty minutes later, the entire first floor and even the bottom of the stairs of Community Housing 4 is absolutely covered with soap suds. Ariel's by the entrance of the kitchen, on her knees and trying desperately to get the bubbles back into the kitchen. It's... mostly a futile effort, so she holds her hair with both hands, unaware that she just got bubbles in it, and then she slides across the suds to get to her journal on the counter.
The image shows her looking off to the side awkwardly, before she smiles widely and writes. She's... trying to be innocent, like she did nothing wrong, but... ahaha...]
Does How Could someone tell me how the clothing cleaner works? Is that what it's called?
And [...] how to clean up a lot of [...] bubbles?

[Voice]
Hey, you got it. [He gives a thumbs up to the journal.]
Did you see a bucket anywhere?
[Written]
She disappears for a second to find said bucket. Once she returns, though, she writes a confirmation.]
I found one!
[...]
What do I do with them now?
[Voice]
What you do after that is easier to explain in person...
[He really hopes someone shows up to help her soon.]
[Written]
Some of the water sloshes out since... well, she did fill it up completely. And once it's on the floor, she straightens up and lets out a satisfied sigh. Oooooh yeah, she's strong. She's cool.
...
Now what. She looks at the mop, then the bucket. She... thinks she gets it, but... Might as well ask first.]
Do I put the mop in the water?
[Voice]
Got it in one.
Once you have a wet, you can take it out and use it to pick up the bubbles. You'll have to dip it back into the bucket sometimes, but that's how you do it.
[Written]
So, mop in the water, then she lifts it up - oh, jeez, it's heavy. Ariel purses her lips before she sets it down on the floor, and begins to move the mop back and forth. This is how it works, right? Most of the bubbles seem to just be pushed aside, but some of it gets on the mop, too. And most of all, the water on the floor is being soaked up, too. Oh, so that's how it works...!
She does nearly slip and fall as she's bringing the mop back to the bucket, but she manages. She even manages enough to come back to the journal and write back to him.]
I got it! Thank you, Shikamaru! ♥
[Voice]
Luckily he can't, so all he gets is the written reply. Ha, the heart is cute and makes him chuckle. It reminds him of the ones Ino and Sakura would draw on their papers in school. Are all girls like that, from other places too?]
No problem. Good luck.
