broken chains. ♥ bado & eve

It only made sense to get this over with, while she still had a pass. She’d already put it off for a while, and she didn’t have the money to be visiting Arcadia every other week... But waiting until her next visit would encourage her to keep putting it off. At this rate, she’d just never do it. So now was the time to break the cycle.

Eve looked up at the building in front of her and slid her hand into her purse. Her fingertips found the small parcel, wrapped in a silken handkerchief. Her feet stayed locked in place, both by trepidation... and this guilty anticipation.

Part of her wanted to see him again. Just once.

She breathed in, then sighed.

The anxiety in her chest seemed to have a grip on her throat. Timid, slight footsteps heralded her presence on the wooden floor, though her heartbeat muted them as she nudged the door open.

“... Hello?” She’d found her voice again. She built up a smile as her gaze finally lifted. “I’d like a repair done, please.”

secret surprise | sofia & bado

[ @meanderingblacksmith ]

•｡ ღ 𝒯o some, it may appear as if the wife of a blacksmith visiting another smithery would be disloyal - or even scheming to scout out the competition; to her, though, Sofia intended to visit this blacksmith based in Arcadia to select a gift to purchase for her husband. There was a wide selection at her husband’s smithery that she already knew he liked - but, in order to receive and give it to him, she would have to buy it - from him; therefore, when she heard through the grapevine about another blacksmith on the island with their second home, she thought she would see what it entailed - certainly, there would be something extraordinary here that he did not already have in his shop over on Leuda.

“𝒢oodbye?” Sofia walked into the store that, upon first glance, appeared to be vacant; was the smithery closed, and she just waltzed inside without consideration? “Is there anyone here?”

Evening Visit

@meanderingblacksmith

Leia was forever grateful for all that Bado did for her. He was like a father to her, but she would never say that aloud. It would be far too presumptuous, she felt. (Uncle was probably more fitting anyway) That’s why she was eager to leave home when she was 18. After all he had done, Leia didn’t want to be a burden for any longer than necessary. For about a year, she had been living on her own and it was going well! She did miss home, though. Both her home in the sea and her home at the blacksmith’s so she made a habit of visiting the home she could visit.

Once the forge was closed, Leia decided to pay a visit. Hopefully, he would be home. With her, Leia brought a dish she had made earlier. Wrapped in tinfoil was fish curry and rice, a new recipe she tried out, and who better to test it then Uncle Bado! Leia knocked on the door of the forge shop with her homemade dish in her other hand.
