[voice] & [action]

[Someone's kicking off her week of not-tending-bar-even-once with style! Buffy has been out "shopping" around Luceti's stores for the latest in whatever she chooses to accept as Fall Fashion. Retail therapy is pretty much the best way to try and forget spending a whole hallucinatory ordeal involving all kinds of nastiness. This means that she is ( Read more... )

let's pretend things are okay, !voice, buffy the drink pourer, buffy the sale slayer, this is code for coping, !action, buffy is the honey, nothing trumps the fuzzy slippers

I suppose that means that any other handicrafts are out of the picture, too, then. [She sounds rather drained, but that's probably a given after last week.]

No--just knitting. It's too old-ladyish for me.

[voice] xelhes November 3 2010, 22:09:02 UTC

Hmm. Well, something like that might be a good hobby. It takes up time and you get something useful out of it in the end.

[voice] slaying November 3 2010, 22:10:03 UTC

Useful if you're big on knitted things. But beyond scarf? I'm...not exactly sold.

[voice] xelhes November 3 2010, 22:15:31 UTC

I meant something other than knitting! Like...sewing, if you're into that. Or beading, or...or carving.

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 00:34:53 UTC

Oh! Carving? Carving, I know. But I've never whittled anything other than a stake.

[voice] xelhes November 4 2010, 00:48:23 UTC

A stake? [Why would anyone want a lot of...? Slowly:] Did you go...camping a lot?

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 01:01:48 UTC

Sure. Why not? You could even almost say that I went nightly.

[voice] xelhes November 4 2010, 01:04:13 UTC

...You don't need to treat me like an idiot. Anyone can see that you're not telling the truth when you say it like that.

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 01:07:35 UTC

Anyone can, huh? Well--fine. I whittle stakes to go and fight the undead every night.

[Because she knows that sounds less honest. But she can't even remember whether she has told this to Fenimore before or not.]

[voice] actually, if I've been saying that Fenimore has heard vampire stories, she'd know staking. xelhes November 4 2010, 01:34:09 UTC

[Once, so it takes her a moment to remember. She hasn't lost the skepticism, though she's not going to argue it.] ...That doesn't sound like a relaxing hobby at all.

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 01:37:25 UTC

Think less hobby, and more calling.

[voice] xelhes November 4 2010, 01:43:39 UTC

I don't think I'd draw on that if you're looking for a hobby. Or you should at least carve something different.

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 01:46:56 UTC

Different like what? Small woodland animals?

[voice] xelhes November 4 2010, 01:54:00 UTC

Sure. I've never carved anything, but that seems to be a traditional use. ...It might be a bit too much of a jump to move from stakes to that, though.

[voice] slaying November 4 2010, 01:57:24 UTC

...Unless that woodland animal was a snake, of course.
