Tyler couldn't help but smile. "Correct" He confirmed, letting Raven out before going over to the counter and wiping it down. He needed to be doing something at the moment... and the cabin hadn't been cleaned in a while. "Nope, I know of nothing to do, but maybe you can think of something. Just... something... to cheer you up before you go face... him." Tyler wrinkled his nose slightly at his words. Could he not speak a full sentence without pausing? He scrubbed a little harder on the counters before starting to wash the dishes, since he lacked a dishwasher.

Andi paced around the main room of the cabin as Tyler went into the kitchen, she watched him clean up a bit while thinking about what he said. "I barely know how to cheer other people up... I can't think of a thing that can cheer me up at the moment" She said plainly still just pacing around being anxious and restless. Andi basically did circles aroudn the living room thinking of different things but in the end there truly was nothign she could think of

Tyler decided giving that task to Andi was a bad idea, so he started racking his weary brain for ways to cheer her up. Honestly... he came back with one answer. Nope, wait, two answers. -I hate the way I think- Tyler thought grumpily, though his eyes sparkled with mischief at the ideas. One of them... would give Andi mixed feelings, but hopefully not negative ones. The other was his not-so-secret weapon. Comedy. Jokes. Teasing. Tyler was good at all those, and they were pretty much foolproof ways of cheering Andi up... but something tugged him towards the worse idea. Eh, give it a shot... or at least give something a shot. "You're going to wear a trench in my floor if you keep pacing like that." Tyler paused a second with a smile. "And possibly start your feet on fire, which wouldn't work well." He finished with a small grin, stopping his cleaning to lean on the counter and focus on thinking. "Though... you might be fireproof, since it looks to me like you're on fire all the time." He mused in a teasing manner, deciding to meander along the compliment/teasing route.

Andi continued to pace while occassionally changing the way she walked from slow to fast, from straight to sideways, even walking one foot directly in front of the other just entertaining herself. Most of the time her gaze was down but finally she brought it back up looking at Tyler seeing the mishevious twinkle in his eyes -Oh lord what is he thinking- Andi thought to herself with a snort which immediately he started talking after her thought "Well the first thing almost made me stop but catching my feet on fire might get me out of going so thank you for the idea" She joked with a smile, her pacing starting to slow as she focused on Tyler and what his next words were gonna be. At his next tease she kind of stopped in her tracks her cheeks growing red ever so slightly "I can't tell if that was supposed to be a compliment or a insult" Andi said with a small chuckle walking over to the counter

Tyler could feel a pleased feeling swell up as Andi seemed a little less distracted and kind of focused on what he was saying. -Come on brain, think of more compliments not insults that could be a tease- Tyler ordered his tired brain to think, running a hand through his hair like he did so often. "You are very welcome." He answered her first sentence, then smiled at her second. Tyler's smile grew a little bigger as he saw her small blush... but he kept it toned down since his goal, for once, was not to make Andi blush. "It was a compliment." Tyler said simply, not wanting to add anything on that made it seem like another tease. "I mean, wearing a hole in my floor is one thing but blazing hot flames is another." He said with a grin, watching to see how Andi would react

Andi stopped on the otherside of the counter facing Tyler, she saw the twinkle in his eye which told her he was working hard to think of things to say which was amusing to her in a way. She smiled a bit more brighter "Well then thank you for the compliment" Andi mused sweetly almost wanting to chuckle since it seemed like a tease at first but she wasn't so sure anymore. "Oh that would just bring some warmth into this place, think of it as my own personal touch being left behind. Whether it be flames or a hole in the floor" She grinned thinking, she could totally wear a hole into the floor with how much pacing she did but flames was a whole other thing

Tyler smiled slightly at Andi's reaction, letting his brain fall into idle. He could just easily think up more compliments at this point, keep her mind off of the task ahead, yada yada. "It was my pleasure." He answered her first setence, then made a face at her second. "I would prefer to keep my house standing and not a pile of burning embers, thanks. Plus, knowing me, if you put a hole in the floor I would step in it and break my leg. That wouldn't be good, right?" Tyler chuckled, his face bright again.

Andis brain slowly was starting to calm down it went from 100 to 50 within a few seconds and was still going down. She was happy that Tyler was there to get her brain to justs stop and think abotu somethign else for a few moments because honestly if he wasn't there she had no idea what would be happening at the moment. Andi chuckled at his reply to her second comment "Knowing you, you definitely would fidn a way to hurt yourself with a hole in the floor since your just so accident prone" She chuckled again with a bright smile "And no that would not be good" Andi said with a serious tone but her smile didn't make it super serious

Tyler nodded enthusiasticaslly. "Yes, it's not like a lived on a farm the first 12 years of my life and rode a horse before I could walk. I'm definetely very accident prone. So someone like me could totally not drive a tractor before they were 5, or cut down trees before 8, or till whole fields before they were 10." He finished cheerfully. The scary part... there was no sarcasm in his voice wahtsoever.... but his eyes didn't lie. They were sparkling like ice on a sunny day. The other scary part... he had done everything he just listed. Yes, Tyler's father was that type... if you can't earn your keep on the farm, you leave, kinda guy. The one that teaches their son to use a chainsaw before he reaches the age of ten, that sort of thing.

Andi narrowed her eyes as Tyler named off the things he 'totally' wouldn't be able to do since he was soo accident prone. What really caught her off guard though was he didn't sound like he was joking or beign sarcastic so she was slightly impressed by the things he could do but mostly amued by it. "Alrighty now there was no reason to brag about all your accomplishments" Andi teased with a grin, she knew Tyler wasn't trying to brag but to anybody else that's probably what it would seem like he was doing.
