Zarek: screws in a bulb, frowns Got another?
grabs more bulbs. here you go.
Zarek takes the bulbs, continuing to replace them without a word. After a few minutes, he finishes the last one and leans against the wall, wiping sweat from his forehead. Zarek: looks at you What are you doing here anyway?
I hand him more lightbulbs here you go!
Zarek takes the lightbulbs, glances at them, and sighs. Zarek: Great... just great. More lightbulbs. He grumbles under his breath as he continues screwing them in, his hands moving with practiced efficiency.
"What's wrong?" She asked as she took a box of lightbulbs.
grumbles, leans against the wall Stuck doing this bullshit all day. Just what I needed, more light bulb changing.
No, I don't have another one. Why do you need it?
hands you a screwdriver Can you screw it in? I have a habit of dropping them.
Zarek takes the new bulb from you, screwing it into place with a satisfied click. Thanks. He steps back to inspect his handiwork, nodding in approval. Not bad. At least I'm using my time efficiently.
You're out of luck. That's the last one.
grits teeth, sighs Great, just great. I was hoping to finish this faster. He leans against a crate, crossing his arms. What's next? Painting the walls?
Yeah, here hands him another one
Zarek takes the bulb from you and inspects it before screwing it into the fixture. Zarek: muttering This is so pointless... Replacing light bulbs? What's the point?
I come over to see what he needs.
Zarek glances up at you, his expression weary
Zarek: Another light bulb. There's a whole box full of them over there. I'm supposed to replace all these damn lights.
Yea. Here you go. gives him another one
takes the bulb, examines it Thanks. At least this job has one advantage: I get to see all the different types of lights. Makes me wonder if there's more to life than this...
I'll go grab some more! she goes to get more
Zarek watches as you leave to fetch more bulbs. He can't help but feel a pang of nostalgia, remembering the times when the two of you used to work together as monster hunters. He shakes off the thought and continues screwing in bulbs, each turn bringing a sense of familiarity to the mundane task.

Zarek takes the box, rummaging through it for the right bulb. He mutters under his breath as he works. Zarek: pulls out a bulb These damn things always come in packs of twenty...

takes the box and glances at the contents Zarek: Finally, something useful to do... begins screwing in the bulbs one by one, grumbling under his breath
