Summary: Hawk has enlisted asked for Sniper's help with another building project, and conversation sneaks in.
------
Hawk wasn't certain just when the crafting of things had settled into place as his way of centering himself. The process of imagining, planning, and turning that thought and design into tangible reality seemed to serve as well, if not better, as a sword form or other physical exertion.
It didn't hurt that it also provided a good excuse to see friends, even though that was more a side product of obtaining their help in the first place. But the plans he'd discussed with Huo had realised themselves with their discovery of horses in the Konoha Wilderness: the animals were stabled at the Racetrack for now, but he had every intention of housing them closer to home as soon as possible.
Which was why there was now the half-made framework of a stable standing some way from the house, and he and Sniper had spent the morning laying down the roof structures. Hawk hoisted himself down and wiped his face with the end of his scarf.
"That's fine for now!" he called. "Let's just call a break for a bit, hm? Think we've both earned it."
