Laundry . . . it's not his favorite thing to do at all. It's probably the most technical thing ever to him that he usually leaves it to either Kaethus, or someone he spent the night with. Those were good times, just standing behind them and wrapping his strong arms that'll make them melt against . . . god, he really spent too much time in jail. But at least he was with Kaethus who might have a better idea with this.
With a basket of dirty clothes, he looks at the detergent, bleach, and softener that he has to use on the shelf above the washer. "So . . . how to do this again?" Now Aaron was thinking he should pay attention how his past lovers did it instead of paying close attention to them.
He tossed his clothes in the machine and grabs the detergent along with the measuring cup. "Hmm . . . they are really dirty today . . ." Grabbing the bottle, he twist the top open and poured about half the bottle inside. "That looks good. Maybe half of this as well." Now the bottle of bleach was being pour about half of the bottle inside the machine, looking pretty good right about now. Staring inside though, it looks like there's a really large amount of detergent and bleach. "Crap, Kaethus, is this the right amount?" But there's nothing he can do about it at this point. "Now the softener . . . at least this part I know." There's a particular kind of softness he likes with his clothes, and he grabbed the softener and pour the exact amount inside of the machine.
For the first time doing laundry, Aaron feels pretty smug that he did it. He shuts the lid down and fiddle with the knobs. "Maybe next time I should have you do all of my laundry because I think I might have made a giant soap bomb inside." He stood back a bit just to make sure he doesn't get hurt.

Character's name: Aaron Lazaris Character's faction: Prison Character's journal link:Link Character's survival stats: Stats BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER Giant muscle man at 6'5", dirty blond hair, one blue eye with a black eye patch over his right eye and burn marks on his face. Wearing an orange jumpsuit with the sleeves ripped off. He's a scary man, strong, but overprotective of his family and friends.
He hated work but he hated smelling even more. And in this place if you didn't work, then you were stuck in your own mess, literally. When Aaron had suggested they do it together he laughed at the chance to watch him attempt laundry. For all he knew, it came with the package deal with his brother's one night stands to do a load for him.
And his hunch was right as he stood behind his brother, smirking at him. When he was asked to check he looked over with a groan. "No." He said, shaking his head. "That thing is gonna-yeah do that.." He tapered off as the machine began to bubble, shake and groan.
"...You need to get married to get someone to do that for you." He laughed as he measured out his detergent, blinking at it and tossing it in. Somehow it didn't feel so right but he shrugged. "E-eh what?!" He stared back up at Aaron. "I am not going to be your damn maid in here. Kaethus rolled his eyes and looked down at the bleach.
"Half a cup or everything is ruined." He muttered, putting it in and turning back. "Just some some busy body housemaker, sounds about right for you. Maybe about your speed?" He snickered in teasing him, grabbing at the softener. It wasn't anything he was used to using often, but had grown to like it. Blinking again, he took a big whiff of it.
This s**t smells cheap.
He thought, but didn't want his clothes to come out like rocks either. He dashed it in and turned on the machine, happy to see it humming away and walked back to Aaron, slapping a hand on his shoulder. "There are just some things that my big brother can't do, heh?" He grinned. "Including scoping out the chicks first! I've seen some pretty nice ones around now, y'know."
