Tal smudges red chalk pastel into orange. “Better. Thaaaa-t was fun!”
“Drawing? Or — having guests?” Nia hears the hum of machines laundering sheets and towels.
“Both…” Cal chews a salted almond and sips a leftover mix of tea and lemonade from a seldom used goblet. “We grow best… when riding the edge of the familiar…”
You can waste your life drawing lines.
Or you can live your life crossing them.

Assessment: The four hostesses enjoyed having guests. Many hands make light the work.
Did Tal take offense at the Shonda Rhimes quote? Perhaps a bit beyond the edge of familiar for Tal. I can imagine Shonda would be a wonderful dinner guest. Two or three days might be pushing your luck. 😉
It is said “Many hands make light the work.” Is four sets of hands folding sheets, especially the fitted ones, excessive? Joyous? An occasion to draw some guide lines? Which Muses would rebel at the lines?
Life is very short and there’s no time for fussing and fighting my friend.
