Magic Box | Thursday

[dishesonthetoprack]

You know what Scott was weirdly kind of good at? Carving pumpkins. He wasn't an expert or any kind of artist, but he could carve a pretty standard face into one pretty efficiently.

So, anyway, when Scott went into the Magic Box today, he was greeted with about a half-dozen pumpkins that were just sort of...sitting in a neat little line in front of the door, he wasn't quite sure what it was about. It wasn't until he was leaving Jeff his weekly offering (crepes? There was a theme in town this week, it seemed) that inspiration struck, and Scott set to work laying out some old paper he found in the back (hopefully not, like, old important magic spells) and using a knife he'd found (hopefully not, like, an old important magic dagger) to start carving some cute faces into these things. He figured Jeff could use some company? Albeit, temporary company.

It wasn't until he was carving into the second pumpkin that he wondered where they had come from. Hopefully they weren't...like, sentient. Oops.
