[open -- nest]

The nest Ragnelle has been building in the woods needed a few more blankets now that the temperature has dropped a few more degrees, so this morning she was in the mansion raiding cupboards. Now she's outside in the lee of Nightingale's summer house with a basket of comforters, cutting them into pieces with a little knife so they'll be easier to incorporate, like leaves in a squirrels' nest. The time indoors has warmed her up, and her hands move quickly with the knife.

"Oh yeah, I'm setting up a proper little lair," Magnus says, with an easy smile. After all, it's been a full twenty-four hours since he was huddled shaking on the roof. New day, new dude, that's what he always says!

"I -- actually, I'm not sure," Magnus admits. "I think I have to? I like food, though. I haven't really tried to go without since I died."

"What's a capon?"

"Okay," says Magnus, rolling with this. He didn't know that could happen to cocks, and makes a mental note to do more research. Clearly the reading he's done to better understand bottom surgery and why people get it hasn't been enough-----

Wait. There's another possible meaning.

"Cocks as in... roosters?" he asks, tentatively.

Magnus gives her a Look. "Ragnelle, you're wicked," he says, smile breaking through.

He makes a mental note to look up if capons are anything like foie gras. "Okay, sure," he says. "Fair point. You got me there."

He salutes her, and then bends to help gather all of the little pieces into one massive armload.

Magnus cranes his head up to observe Ragnelle's nest. It's impressive, and extremely cool. "How can I help?" he asks, politely. He wouldn't dream of approaching it uninvited, but he's willing to pitch in however.

Magnus hitches his grip on the blanket scraps, shifting it more to one arm. "Lead the way!"

Magnus, meanwhile, relies heavily on his einherji strength and reflexes to make his way up behind her, springing from limb to limb and catching himself with his free hand, careful not to drop the blankets. When he reaches the nest, too, he wedges himself on a nearby branch, drawing one leg up so he can rest the scraps on it. "Ready when you are," he says, once everything is well-balanced.

Magnus passes them over by the handful. "This is a neat little setup you've got here, Ragnelle," he says, watching as she works. "Very cool. I didn't think about making a nest when I moved outside."

"Smart," he calls back, angling his mouth and blowing a feather that's landed on his cheek away. "You want me to come by and melt the snow around your nest for you if it gets really thick?"
