spring cleaning

Her ears immediately flicked back as her mother shook her head, but she was relieved when she spoke and admitted to being fine and pressed into her chest. She wasn't sure how much she believed it, but she would accept it as the answer she would be given and moved on. She wasn't really in the mindset to fixate on something else anyway, so Recluse was perhaps a bit lucky in a way. Besides, her thoughts had briefly wandered to how large she had gotten. Swallowing that down, Recluse spoke just in time to grab her attention.

"Oh? I'm just cleaning, or reorganizing... or something?" She really didn't know what to call it since nothing really looked cleaner or more organized than it had when she started. At best she was just moving stuff around and stirring up dust, but even she knew her mind wasn't on cleaning either. Recluse knocking on her door helped bring her back to the real world, though it did little in the way of helping the mess she had inadvertently created. "Feel up to dusting while I put stuff back?" She asked, not even sure she knew where to begin with reorganizing tonight. Perhaps just dusting and putting it all back would make the space look at least a little better, plus she'd maybe get to spend some time with her mom without anyone else hanging around.

"Speech!"
