Truly helped him develop the roux and he's gotten really good at making gumbo (or jambalaya, depending on whether there's rice on hand). Calcifer always insists it tastes delicious; what concerns everyone else is that it really does, even though surely it's poison. (Frog spleen? Slime weed? Jellied brain?)

Found a stray pillow that must be Re'em's (Remy loves pillows) so he's definitely going to return it, he just keeps forgetting and losing it somewhere and then finding it again and putting it somewhere else so he'll remember and then forgetting and losing it and...
