notarockharpist: (I Would Like to Rage)

Covent Garden Flowers, Friday (10/29)

Yasha was splitting her time today between reading (she still had so much to catch up on) and trying her hand at jack o'lantern carving, wondering if Caduceus would have Opinions on this whole Halloween thing.

From the look of it the reading was going much better than the carving was, if only because the small safety knife that came with the pumpkin carving kit was tiny and dull -- and to be totally honest, looked ridiculous in her very large hands -- and the process of using it left her visibly frustrated. Not to would-like-to-rage levels, luckily, but unmistakably frustrated.

Maybe she could use her sword to do it? Sure, it was six feet long and very heavy, but she'd used it to give Caleb a very good shave once with no injuries to speak of! She could totally do a different kind of precision work with it! The craftspeople who'd made it back in the Age of Arcanum would probably cry knowing what kinds of use Magician's Judge got put to in Yasha's hands, but that was hundreds of years ago and they didn't need to know.

...but that was why, if you happened to glance inside the shop at the right times, you might be treated to the sight of a nearly six-foot-tall woman looking thoughtfully at a relatively small pumpkin while holding a considerably sizable greatsword in one hand and scratching thoughtfully at her chin with the other.

Nothing to worry about! (No, really, it would be fine, except for maybe the pumpkin.)
