I didn’t see it, sorry about that! *glares at tumblr*
Aww, I can see Beri taking up quilting, after Jeri is grown and they’ve gone up in the world, and she’s no longer a soldier and has the leisure time and the funds to take up a hobby… but my sincere apologies, Nonnie, it’s not Genild’s sort of thing at all!!
But here’s this: I can imagine Beri trying to teach her… and Genild glaring at it. Like, forever. Because urgh, fiddly, and takes-too-long and MAHAL ALREADY can she go do something that isn’t sitting down for hours and stabbing herself in the thumb a hundred bloody times?
Beri would finish off the quilts, chuckling to herself, probably, as she unpicked every clumsy stitch.
(the sounds of Genild huffily smacking pots about in the kitchen as she begins on “something useful” – translation: cooking up a batch of her spicy fish stew -echo down the hallway. It sounds rather as though Genild is using the pots and pans as practice weaponry. Beri would grin down
just a little wider
at the half-finished quilt on her lap. She has negative amounts of stillness, Beri’s darling wife. Always has to be up on her feet!)
