Iggy isn't sure what to think. It's early in the morning, he knows this because he'd been up late reading again. His stomach is what brought him down to the living room to begin with. Their resident workaholic had likely already made the household breakfast and had all but disappeared for the day. He'd just grab some eggs or whatever strange substance had been concocted. He wasn't picky.
The Hyur had meant to go to the kitchen. He had! So hearing strange noises from the living room had his feet taking him in the complete opposite direction. Which lead him to where he was now.
Staring blankly as Raiti tries to beat the ceiling with a broom.
"It's right there." He hears her mutter, followed by long bout of vicious whacking. The Au Ra never was up this early, having always worked late at night. He didn't understand much of the details, he was the youngest of the house after all. But he knew enough that seeing the quiet and well behaved Au Ra going to town on the ceiling was as normal as it seemed.
"Do I want to know?" He wonders out loud.
She tosses him a flat look over her shoulder, "Don't just stand there. Help me."
He doesn't move, confusion rooting him in his spot. She doesn't pay him any mind, swinging her broom in wide arcs that never even made it close to the high arched room. A giggle from nearby draws his eyes to a recliner. The household black cat curls up there, the Miqo'te grinning impishly at him from her spot. He isn't surprised to see the only other early riser. He raises an eyebrow at her, which Par returns.
"She found a spider." She explains, and they both watch as Raiti smacks the broom against the ceiling with frustration, and breaks it in half.
