i am fully prepared to chuck canon out the window for the sake of bathtime

Oh, a bath sounded excellent, he thought. He'd seen a pair of pails inside that he suspected were for getting water up from the lake inside.

It was three trips - he'd collect the water, get it boiling over the fire, head back down to the lake to get more and then return to tip the hot water into the tub before starting to boil the next two pails of it.

By the time he'd added the last batch, the water was nearly the perfect temperature and the air in the cabin had grown warmer with the rising steam.

He gathered his supplies - a towel, soap, herbal oils, a washcloth, a nail brush and his brush and comb. Arthur's hair was looking like it could use a bit of love as well, and he set them aside. As he mentally went through his checklist, he spotted something in the compartment that made him chuckle.

By the time Arthur wrapped up, the Medicine Seller would be waiting for him, reclining on the bed with a familiar pillow.
