I can figure out how to use those machines later… At least this one is easier to use.

[The communicator is on the floor, initially only showing what appears to be a bucket of soapy water with a washboard in it… But, then it’s adjusted slightly, and there’s Sukuyo, smiling. She keeps her attention on it as she starts washing clothes in the bucket, as if this is something she’s more than used to.]

Ah, I hope none of my new housemates mind, but I took the liberty of cleaning up a little! I mopped the floors, washed the windows, made the beds… [Yes, House 30, she went in everyone’s room. Everyone’s. And it’s obvious that she didn’t do just that, as she lifts up whatever she was cleaning on the washboard… and it’s underwear. Your underwear? Probably.] I’m doing the laundry, too! You can’t be a superhero without clean clothes!

If any other house is behind on their chores, I'd be more than willing to help out! This is what a housewife does!

You did? Well, you'll have to make some for me! [Ah, she's grown up so much...

That actually reminds her of something very important!]

Mako, I have something very cool to show you. Do you want to see?

[manbanchoku]

Okay! I'll have to talk Senketsu-chan around, though...he's pretty set on us eating super healthy food!

I definitely wanna see! What is it?

[housenurse]

[WELL, she's just gonna have to have a nice little Talk with Senketsu-chan about the obvious croquette exception.

BUT, until then. She grabs a random piece of laundry from the pile-- a sock-- and holds it up to the camera.] Now, watch.

[She looks at it hard for a few seconds... And then, poof! There's a croquette in her hand, as if there had never been a sock to begin with.] Ta-da~

[manbanchoku]

....THAT IS THE COOLEST. POWER. EVER!

[housenurse]

I know, right? I've been turning everything into croquettes! Cars, stop signs, doorknobs, tables... [None on purpose, but such is life.] It looks like I can use just about everything, like with normal croquettes!

[manbanchoku]

Ahhhh, so lucky...I've just got super-strength and agility and I heal pretty fast...

[housenurse]

Your powers are perfect for you! With those, you can go out and be a heroic superhero, saving people and fighting evil! I'm much too old for that kind of thing, so it's my job to be a super-housewife.

And, fighting crime probably works up a big appetite! That's where I come in.

[manbanchoku]

You've always been a super-housewife, Mom!

[housenurse]

Aw, thank you. It's just more official, now!

Healing sounds so useful. At least I won't have to be too worried for you all the time. [No, she'll still worry. All the time.]

[manbanchoku]

It's kind of like when I had my Goku Uniform!

[housenurse]

Except now you can wear something more tasteful. [And, you know, not run around looking like a hoodlum.]

[manbanchoku]

I kind of miss it...mostly the hat.

[housenurse]

I'll find you a better hat.

[manbanchoku]

[Mom, no.

It was the best hat.]

...okay.

[housenurse]

Don't be sad, Mako! We can probably afford really nice hats now!

[gonna buy like ten Easter bonnets]

[manbanchoku]

Right!

[To be fair Mom, the last time they were rich your sense of fashion was...suspect.]

[housenurse]

[Nobody appreciates rococo!]

I'm sure we can afford lots of things now!

[... Oh, wait, but...] Even though we don't live together right now!

[manbanchoku]

Y...yeah...

[It was one thing when it was just Mako, but...well, maybe if they save up they can move into another place?]

[housenurse]

[They can live in a shack on the side of the highway, as long as they're together!]

You can come stay over whenever you want to. I'm sure my roommates won't mind. [And if they do, fuck 'em, mom overrules.]
