Will ran the small chisel along the grain of the wood, nearly satisfied with the design he had carved. Just a little more detailing, then sanding it down and finishing it, and the box would be done.
Hopefully, Djaq would like it. While she did not have a jewelry collection or anything to keep in it, maybe she could keep some of her specialized herbs in it. That thought made him pause; should he add separators inside to create different compartments? Opening the lid to peer in and consider that idea, it took him a minute to notice the footsteps crunching through the undergrowth toward him.
He jumped up and ducked behind a tree, but relaxed when he saw that it was only Kate from Locksley. As he moved into view, he made a little noise so that she would not be startled by him.
She still jumped, but quickly grinned. "Will! Just the man I hoped to see."
Will's eyebrows inched up. "Oh? Why's that?"
Biting her lip, she innocently asked, "Where might I find apple wood?"
"Apple wood?" he repeated, surprised by the question. "Well, I'd try the orchard first, not the forest."
"Right! Thanks!" And with that, she was gone.
Will was a little nonplussed, but soon forgot about the conversation. That was, until he was making a delivery to Locksley a couple of days later, and saw something curious hanging inside the pottery... something which looked very much like one of the bread signs...
"THE SHERYFF IS A CLAYBRAINED FOOTLICKER"
Wide-eyed, Will quickly looked away and walked a little faster away from the building. This seemed like one of those times when pretending not to have seen a thing was the best option.
