Recovered...?

[chanteuser]

All the pestering you got yesterday, at the spa.

[retellers]

Ah. No... I did not mind.

[chanteuser]

Well, that's good to know. That we didn't scare you off completely.

[ and then she holds out the mud pack! the face mask! the actual skin care. ]

Here.

[retellers]

[ goat takes it. ]

What is this?

[chanteuser]

It's an actual face mask. One of the mud-like ones, that are made to go on your skin, rather than just being... mud from outside.

[ good skincare for goat. ]

[retellers]

I see. I accept this gift with gratitude, then.

[chanteuser]

Just try to do it in your room or something, because you do need to take the mask off to apply it everywhere and let it work before you wash it off.

You guys don't take your masks off in front of each other, do you?

[retellers]

It doesn't really come up... I don't usually remember I'm wearing one to begin with.

[chanteuser]

Really?

[ ... huh. ]

I would've thought it'd get uncomfortable sometimes.

[retellers]

I think I was likely used to having one before...

[chanteuser]

Wearing a mask?

...

Still, doesn't you face need to... breathe?

[retellers]

I am breathing already...?

[chanteuser]

No, I mean... your skin. Covering it up can cause breakouts, and those aren't fun.

[retellers]

Breakouts?

[chanteuser]

Spots? Dry patches of skin? I think masks irritate your skin if it's sensitive.

But either way, a proper facemask is kind of fun to do.

[retellers]

Is it...?

[ not judging, just curious as if they don't understand the wonders of doing a facemask. ]

[chanteuser]

Yup. It's nice and relaxing too.

[retellers]

I see... It's true that such things are important for humans.

[chanteuser]

As much as anything else is. You have to unwind and recharge sometimes. And a lot of products focus on beauty.

Still, you should give it a try. You just leave it on for around 15 minutes and then wash it off.

[retellers]

... If it is called a mud mask, why does mud from the outside not work, then?

[chanteuser]

It's the type of mud, I think. It does use mud but it's specific types, and some types of clay? Mud from outside is just... dirty, but if it's being kept specifically for beauty products it's treated differently.

[retellers]

I see... I suppose that makes sense. Humans must have worked very hard to discover this.

[chanteuser]

I think we just like doing things to try and stop ourselves from ageing. [ hmmmm. ]

But it does feel nice. I enjoyed the stuff I found in the spa a lot.

[retellers]

That's good. A pity it will disappear by next week, then.
