Blackstone Foundry and Forge; Tuesday [01/17].
Having her weapons class to start her days made Tuesdays a tricky one, as talking about certain weapons in class would inevitably just make Amaya want to work on some of those weapons when she came back 'round to open the shop. And, usually, that wouldn't be much of a problem, except that she had only a few weeks now to figure out and forge together some stuff for Irene's party, and since she did have plenty of ideas (and they were definitely Amaya Blackstone ideas, which meant big and meaty projects more often than not), she knew she had to really narrow in and focus and get to work.
There were several sketches and blueprints for various displays and other things covering one of the worktables, things she'd likely go over with Irene or need to swing by Irene's shop for measurements and a better idea of what sort of space and...erm...products she might be working with, so they were mostly for later in the week. But what she was less concerned about needing approval and actually wanted to be a bit more of a surprise was the potential, unfortunately very mushy-themed contribution to the door prizes. Because even if she sort of hated the idea behind it, she was pretty excited about the process of making it and the challenge it presented to her as a weaponsmith. It was a good idea, she felt, and she was very proud of it, even if it would make her wrinkle her nose a lot once it was finished.
But so help her if it wasn't actually, in her opinion, kind of perfect.
So that was what she was working on, especially since that required a lot of work at the anvil with a couple of blades with some less than standard designs, so ultimately not a bad way to spend her day.
The Forge is open!
