If money has no meaning here, then what do people do with themselves? Adventure for the sport of it? Build things only to watch them gather dust?

I prefer problems that bite back or explode in my hands, but it seems difficult to call that work in a place where every need is already seen to.

So. What passes for an occupation here—when merit and coin are both irrelevant?

Not a lot of magic where I come from, probably not much divine meddling either, but people do come by what they're able to do in different ways, so "abilities" works as a decent catch-all.
In my case, I was born with them
[ish] and it's all of the above, plus a few other things.
I don't mind sharing, nothing I can do is a secret.
And that's the question, right? So far I've been spending more time cooking than I usually have time for, which is nice.
