이 문장은 무슨 뜻인 건가요?
각작의 자리에서 서로의 할일을 하기 시작했어요" 라고 무슨 뜻이에요? 단어를 이해가 되지만 전반적인 뜻을 이해가 못 해요.
(Separetely) / (seat/ chair)/ (each other) / (will do) / (start doing sth)
문맥: 펭귄님은 일하기 전에 자리에서 이불을 널고 있어요 (Penguin is hanging a blanket over a chair)
Penguin Loves Mev이라는 웹툰에 나왔어요. ("몰래" 제582화 이름이에요)

우선 '각작' 은 어법상 맞지 않구요, '각각' 또는 '각자' 가 맞습니다 :)
"각자의 자리에서 서로의 할일을 하기 시작했어요." 에서의 각자의 자리란 자신의 위치를 뜻합니다. 그래서 자신이 일을 하는 장소에 물리적으로 간다. 즉, 제 몫을 제대로 한다는 의미가 숨어있지요.

I'm not sure if I could explain it in English well, but I'll try!
각자의 자리: different seat or space.
so, in the webtoon, 펭귄 might work at her desk and Mev might work in the living room.
서로의 할일: each other's work to do. this is a bit confusing to me. When we say, "let's do each other's work" in English, it means I'll do your work and you'll do my work, right? but in the webtoon, 펭귄 works on her own stuff and Mev does it too. it would've been clearer if it was 각자의 할일. Then, I'll think I do my work and you do your work.
This is only my opinion. I might be wrong, but hope it helped you a bit !
