"And I will make you that emerald jewelry," he says. "We'll be very busy. Probably hardly see each other at all until we are done."

"Not every part of crafting takes much concentration," he says. "I can carry on a conversation through most of it--it's only the very complicated that I prefer to be alone for. On the other hand, your yarn might pick up the scent of the forge smoke."

"I suspect my clothes all smell like smoke anyway," he says with a chuckle. "You get used to it, and don't even notice it anymore."

"You're in good company, then," he says, producing a lit one from midair and offering it over.

"You're more than welcome," he says, lighting one for himself. "What shall we do now? We could probably walk over to the falls, or we could take the car, if you'd rather."

"I think I would," he says, glancing up at the sky. "You get a better feel for a city on foot, you've got more time to look around at the scenery."

"Someday, we should take a vacation to somewhere that has those horse-cart tours," he says. "See old cities the way they used to be seen. Slowly."

"They have it in New York, don't they?" he asks. "I know they tend to in the old colonial cities. I think I have seen movies with it in New York, at least in the park..."

"They've got the monopoly on history," he says with a chuckle. "Or at least they think so. It's different out in Minnesota, where the Europeans haven't been there all that long, relatively speaking, but there's a stronger native presence."

"No need to worry about it," he says. "There's not much use for the rest of the world, when you can only be in one place at a time. Right now, right here is all we need to think about."

"It makes it easier to be spontaneous," he says with a smile... and if she doesn't resist, she is getting scooped up in his arms.
