Nagesh tries to say goodbye to everyone whenever he leaves the domain after his "shift"is over, and this time is no exception. It turns out the kitchen is apparently his last destination. He waits a bit to listen to what's going inside--not that Rune's domain usually has big noises in the kitchen, but he knows some people don't like to be interrupted while cooking. 
After a while, he knocks lightly and tentatively on the door.

"Hello," Nagesh greets warmly as soon as he spies any Allen feature through the door crack. It seems he's stepped back a bit to give the other some space. "Still busy, I see?"

"It looks spotless to me," Nagesh says with a chuckle. "In fact, it's like that every day I've been here."

Nagesh doesn't really feel like it'd be practical for him to poke his head over Allen's shoulder or whatever to confirm his point further, so he stays where he is. "Your efforts are clearly producing results. I daresay it's enough for you to move onto something else," he adds passively a moment later.

Nagesh laughs. "No, I mean, perhaps you should take a while to yourself. Breaks are very important." 

Guess Nagesh has just met someone of the legendary has-no-hobbies categorization.
"There is certainly more than chores to do," Nagesh counters.

"Admirable," Nagesh says with a laugh, "and correct, since chores may not be affiliated with negative connotations. However, I do believe it's best not to be stuck in routine."

Nagesh starts to speak but reconsiders. "Well, I don't know you all that well yet," he says. "What do you like to do? Other than your usual, of course."

"Hmmm, well, reading seems like the most obvious choice there, to perhaps expand your writing repertoire," Nagesh muses. "Do you write with expression?"

Nagesh laughs at the thought of someone in the domain reading a journal without permission and then deciding they could be a peer reviewer. "Perhaps it does. Say, do you go outside of this domain, then?"

"Oh no." He offers a somewhat playful smile. "How do you children get your nutrients staying inside a stone castle all day?"

"Even if so, I doubt it is enough," Nagesh advises warmly.

"Interesting way of putting it." He tilts his head. "I am sure you know that doing so is somewhat contradictory, however. Right?"

"The conclusion is you're just not getting the nutrients you need," Nagesh says after a pause, laughing slightly. "Would you like to take a quick walk outside with me, then?"

"Alright. So, should I ask Rune, or is it okay for us to just leave for a while? I can personally escort you back," Nagesh offers with his smile still present.
