Blackstone Foundry and Forge; Friday [11/09].

[special_rabbit]

Plenty to do in the shop today! Well, even when there wasn't plenty to do in the shop, Amaya would find plenty to do, but in this case, it was the truth. In addition to working more on Zack's sword, she loaded up a wheelbarrow with the practice swords for Kanan with the intention to swing by the warehouse to drop them off like she intended to do weeks ago but, whoops, FORGOT like a dummy as she set the sword to cool a little before the next shaping. She supposed she could just bring the practice weapons with the assortment Diaz had asked for for her class on Tuesday, but she only had the one wheelbarrow, and it would take two trips anyway, if not three.

She'd take them all over today, but, after a whole week with her display wall looking a little sparse due to the whole heist thing, she didn't want to remove them all again until she had to. There were few things she liked to see quite so much as a wall full of weapons, and not a whole lot of things she considered more sad than a wall without them.

The Forge is open!

Kaidan went to go talk to Amaya before he headed to the warehouse. "Hey, Amaya. Uh.. You..better now?"

Tuesday, man.

[special_rabbit]

Ugh, Tuesday.

And, boy, this sure put a bit of a damper on her plans to just never mention it again.

"Ah," Amaya set down her hammer, offered a small swipe of her hand in a way. "Hey, there, Kaidan." Extra emphasis on his name there instead of an unfortunate but not wholly inaccurate nickname? No, not at all! "Right as rain, never better! How about...er...you?"

Or his shirts, rather.

"Fine, fine," Kaidan quickly assured her, relieved that she was back to normal, "All good here." His clothing hadn't disappeared since then, thankfully.

"About to head through the portal home for the weekend. I was wondering if you'd had a chance to work on the little spike balls we'd talked about? For the tracking devices?"

[special_rabbit]

"Ah, yeah, those!" Amaya nodded, grinning a bit, more than happy to be talking work instead of pretty much anything under the sun, but especially more than anything that may have happened earlier that week. "Wasn't sure you were still interested or not, but I've been picking at 'em a little bit in between projects. Good use of some scrap metal I've had laying around, made a few molds for some of 'em, too. Here," she gestured for him to come on in closer to the counter, where she was going to start sorting through a couple of boxes and crates tucked underneath, "lemme just see if I can remember where I put some, maybe they're still something you can use."

[spectre_alenko]

"Definitely still interested," Kaidan assured her, "If you have anything ready, I could probably use 'em this weekend. Doing some lowkey recon."

He looked around with a lopsided smile. The forge had come a long way from the last time he'd seen it, when the walls hadn't even been finished.

"There's at least a few," Amaya said from down behind and under the counter, which soon had a metal box dropped on it. And then a crate. And then plastic bin. And a bowl. Each filled with at least a handful of little caltrops of various sizes and metals, most of them filled with a lot more.

You know.

A few.

"There we go," she said, resurfacing, brushing her hands together. "I knew they were there somewhere. Couple different sizes, you can see, I started trying to get progressively smaller, I remember you said small would be good, right? Still think I could go smaller, but I've had enough other projects coming in to distract me from really gettin' 'em down."
