Landing on the central beam of the shamush roof, Miko otherworldly announces:
- Anata no... negai... kanatta... ( 🤓 ) - and takes off her rabbit cloak.
-- That's right, so first, work with this rough-cut aspen, and once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to handle something more substantial, and then we'll put it to use. But don't worry, you won't need exceptional precision, as we'll add some bronze, and we'll also age the wood... It will look like an ancient artifact.
*After some time working*
-- Alright, let's see what you've got.
"No way, after all this crap, I won't let some damn piece of wood defeat me! Take that, you ugly log! Here you go, and here! Do you like it?!"
As was often the case with Beata, anger gave her strength. After a while, she even began to understand what it meant to "pay attention to the direction of the grain," and the rough shape definitely began to resemble a circle more than a square. And there were noticeably fewer new cuts on her fingers.
- Something like this, - she said casually, handing the finished piece to Erefir. - It's still far from what you produce, of course, but it seems like something is starting to work out.
By the way, you were offered to buy them. But no, it's better to send creatures on deadly missions...

- Well, something like that, - she said casually, handing the finished piece to Erephir. - It's still far from what you create, of course, but it seems like something is starting to work out.
She demonstrates, skillfully using the tool.
-- My glued discs are still drying, but I should start thinking about the coating. The most difficult part is to correlate the flat and spherical coordinates and draw everything accurately... I probably won't manage it on the first try.
At the designated location, Klin finds his fellow countryman. He looked as if he had aged 20 years since their last meeting.
—Hello, my friend. —he said with a heavy sigh, nodding to the hermit. —Do you mind if I...? —he added, taking the empty bench next to him.
- Uhh... - looking around with concern, weighing a thousand factors in her mind, and only after making sure that no one was watching, she sighs resignedly and jumps off the roof with the intention of breaking her neck - in the best traditions of Japanese office workers.
- ... Hello. - Since his hands were occupied, he had nothing to wipe away the sweat that suddenly appeared on his forehead from this situation.
-- Okay, -- said the redhead. -- Now, add some chaotic swirls, something like this.
She demonstrates, skillfully wielding the tool.
-- I have some glued-together discs drying, but I should start thinking about the coating. The most difficult part is correlating the flat and spherical coordinates and drawing everything accurately... I probably won't manage it on the first try.
Beata starts carving out the chaotic swirls. At first, she tries to imitate Erefir, but she soon realizes that it would take years of training, which she doesn't have... She has to tone down her enthusiasm and approach the task more carefully and slowly. She stubbornly grunts and mutters under her breath, but soon she starts to succeed – so much so that "a little" turns into covering the entire blank.
- Um, oops, - she giggled. - I think I got carried away.

Having received instructions and ingredients from Alaria, Guion nodded and diligently began kneading the dough. It turned out to be a little more difficult than he had anticipated, but not more difficult than wielding a sword. It took some time to find the right pace and immerse himself in the process, achieving a uniform, smooth mass. By the end of the kneading, his arms were starting to ache a little. "A great substitute for training, and it works out the muscles, and I spent my time usefully," Guion noted.
Shaping the dough also turned out to be more difficult than he thought, but somewhere around the third or fourth batch, the pieces of dough with the filling inside began to resemble pies, and by the end of the first baking sheet, he wasn't even ashamed to look at the result of his work. When the enticing smell of the finished pies wafted from the oven, he simply nodded in satisfaction. All that remained was to make sure that Beata didn't get to the kitchen before the others...
While working on the filling, the Tanarian couldn't help but wonder what the others thought about spicy food. She herself might not refuse an extra portion of pepper in the new pies. Erefir would definitely approve of this, but she wasn't so sure about the others. Of course, she could prepare two versions of the filling at once, for those who like spicy food and those with a more delicate palate, but that would add a lot of work to an already laborious undertaking. And she could easily get them mixed up in the rush. It wasn't worth taking the risk unnecessarily. So, she would have to hold off on the spicy filling. In any case, they should try the "classic" version first.
Just in case, she baked extra pies. In case she decided to visit Tai today and bring the food she had promised. Or if her comrades wanted to treat someone else, such as Bronislava or Kalina. And she shouldn't underestimate the potential voracity of the Carnelians. What if one of them was craving simple, home-cooked food?
— Well, — wiping the sweat from her brow, the warrior exhaled, — I think I can call the others. If they are free, of course.
Klin himself didn't understand why his heart led him to this place at that hour, but now, looking at the old acquaintance, he felt as if he saw a reflection of his own soul.
—Hello, old friend. —he nodded to the hermit with a heavy sigh. —Do you mind if I...? —he added, taking the free seat next to him.
— Well, — the warrior sighed, wiping sweat from her forehead, — I think we can call the others. If they’re free, of course.

- Hello, Edgelord-kun, - she replies to him as if she were sweeping the yard or decorating future talismans with inscriptions. - What events has this November morning brought you?
- And to you as well... Well, have a good day.
—Yes... —he sighs meaningfully again after a while, and falls silent again. —Ahem... Sorry. I thought the words would come to me, but something's not right... So, you live your life, and it seems even normal. You don't wish anyone harm and don't do anything bad. And your family... And then, suddenly, you get news like that. Well, and... Yes. —he waved his hand dismissively. —So, what now?..
