make bathing fashionable and maybe we'll get somewhere

Unfortunately, that is entierly outside my realm of expertise.

I suppose at the very least I can see if any of my old Carta contacts can get their hands on more soap. We've run clean through with this blasted outbreak.

Just go to the marketplace.

Mme Fontaine overcharges for shite product and you know it.

~~Go to Lowtown. You get housewives making soap out of their homes and consigni~~ I'll pick some up this evening before my shift.

[ SHE FUCKING SEES THAT ]

If you think a Lowtown housewife won't take you for every coin you have, you're mad. But thank you.

Poor people aren't all crooked. And it's soap. We need soap. And we can't wait for a shipment of it from Orzammar, with all the associated transportation expenses.

Who said they were.

And do as you will, then. I'm in no position to stop you.

[ Being sick and all the annoyance that goes with that. ]

Should we start making our own soap?

And by we, I mean I. Since I have the apothecary.

I am of the opinion it would benefit us to do so with as much as we can.

I'll add it to my list.

[And then go cry at how long his list is.]

the sexual tension on this page is overwhelming

[It's a shame "LOL" doesn't exist in Thedas, or it would be used here.]

Thank you.
And if you're going to Lowtown to buy soap off the housewives, you might as well see if you can get a decent meal from one as well.

me and an alchemist are working on something mainly for infirmary use
little more heft than your standard

That's fantastic, frankly.
What's the composition of it?

alcohol + glycerin
or whatever we'll substitute for glycerin. it's a fat component.

[ He may be a genius but the finer points of shit he never had to think about before are surprisingly hard to reverse engineer. ]

Animal fat would be my first thought, considering it's used frequently enough. I assume you've already considered that option, though.

yeah we're hitting up some stocks of tallow
full disclosure this wasn't exactly my forte back home but the lady knows what she's doing

Perhaps you shouldn't be disclosing that while also claiming there are tiny invisible creatures running about and making everyone sick.

It's a fascinating theory, to be frank, but one I don't imagine many would be receptive to.

to be clear, Sound of Music, I meant you don't usually catch me making handcrafted glitter soap for my etsy page
invisible creatures running around and making everyone sick is baseline knowledge
