Dex had time to clean the kitchen and reorganize the cupboard before his partner knocked at the door. "It's open," he called out.

Darsi wrinkled her nose at the sudden smell of cleaning products that washed over her when she entered. Usually, Dex's place smelled of baked goods, a testament to his popularity among certain unnamed hackers. "Going to clean my place when you're done?"

Dex removed the rubber gloves he had been cleaning with and stashed them under the sink. "You're never over there, so I'm sure it's spotless."
