"Hey Millicent, do you want t-t-to go questing with me today?" Morgan asks at the breakfast table. Millicent is in the middle of eating tiny cubes of kiwi whenever Morgan asks, but she immediately excitedly affirmed that she'd love to go (nearly choking in the process and giving Morgan quite the scare!). After breakfast, the pair got ready and went. Millicent rode on Morgan's shoulder and played with a pinwheel. Every once in a while wind would catch the pinwheel just the right away, and send her careening into the wind. The first time this happened, Morgan just about had a panic attack. However, Milicent was pretty okay at flying at this point, and would squeal with laughter before returning to ride on Morgan's shoulder again.
By the time they got to the quest board, Morgan was very desensitized to this, thankfully. The tiny harachiu was always so bold and brave that it terrified the overprotective human.[1]

There were so many quests on the board that Morgan could feel their head spinning. While they looked at some of the larger (admittedly fancier) ones, Millicent was looking at some of them as well. She couldn't read yet (Morgan did plan to teach her soon) she did find one in particular interesting. "Hey, What about this one?" She asks, tugging on Morgan's labcoat collar. Morgan turns and looks at the little post-it-note. It was an unimpressive little thing at first glance, all dirty on one corner. Morgan would have never given it a second glance, but they loved Millicent, and humored her. "Let's see..." Morgan says, and then they clear their throat. "B-bugs are eating the berries, p-please help." Morgan read. Millicent stared at the writing that she didn't know how to read, tilting her head.
"Well, That's something we can help with- and it sounds pretty quick." Morgan said, nodding.

Millicent pouted a little. "But I wanted to spend more time with you today!" She says, her voice obviously conveying her disappointment. Morgan smiles apologetically. "H-how about this, what if we went out to lunch afterwards, and ate in the park?" Morgan grinned. Millicent didn't look super happy at first, but quickly comes around to the idea. "It's just that we don't get a lot of time together!" Millicent says, as they make their way to the Nature's Bounty to speak with the owner there. Morgan nods. "My work does keep me busy." Morgan says, musing a bit afterwards in their mind. They needed ideas to remedy that concern as soon as possible.
The day is nice- the sun is warm. Just a few weeks ago it was very cold out! Millicent had especially hated the winter because she wasn't really happy with having to wear a coat. She loved the springtime! They make it to the shop, and Morgan steps up to the front door to knock.

The human is completely surprised whenever they saw someone come around the corner of the Nature's Bounty. Morgan was quite the jumpy person, they quickly turn their head, and give Millicent a bit of a start too before the young harachiu pats Morgan on the collarbone in an attempt to chill them out. Morgan quickly notices that the jump was for naught- of course it was Turner. "H-hey." Morgan said, a little off-guard. "I saw you had a b-bug problem. I can certainly help with that." Of course, the pair hammered out the details, and then Morgan dropped back home to pick up the old blaster they had made, the prototype for killing the bugs a year or so ago.
Morgan and Millicent return, and Morgan begins the work. The berry trees were certainly VERY infested! Still, Morgan was somewhat bored. "What would you like to eat l-later?" Morgan asks Millicent, conversationally.

Millicent was a growing young harachiu, and of course she couldn't decide on all of the delicious things she wanted to eat. Morgan was pretty sure that she was going to order a little bit of the entire menu of wherever they were going to go after this. Morgan spends at least an hour trying to kill all of the bugs, and it was difficult work. They weren't used to working with their hands this much anymore. By the end of it, they were pouring with sweat and huffing in an attempt to catch their breath. "Gawsh, I g-guess we're gonna have to dip home and get cleaned up before going out to eat!" Morgan complains, while Millicent laughs at them. She'd been playing most of the time, playing hide-and-go-seek with her imaginary friend- so she hadn't really noticed how gross Morgan had gotten in the spring heat.
Another hour and a half, and Morgan was all done. "Whew!" They wiped their brow. "I reckon we're d-done!"
[5] - [End, the pair goes home.]
