6 Unicorn Street; Friday [06/29].

This week might have been a break week, but there was still activity stirring up the construction site. Amaya had been waiting all week for this and now had a full weekend of work to look forward to as she signed off on the delivery of the materials she'd need to build the forge in the nice, open space of the shop's first floor. She took a second to savor that brief moment of anticipation and promise that made starting a new project--especially such an important project--so sweet before cracking her knuckles, adjusting her gloves, and getting started.

Laying bricks and mortar wasn't a particularly difficult job, no, but it was work Amaya enjoyed. Really, though, there were very few examples of work that Amaya didn't enjoy. And it definitely helped knowing that this work was work that would leave to even more work, and it was the work she was born to do. Didn't even bother her that it was a little warm out; if anything, it just made her more eager for that heat of a hot forge on her face again.

Kaidan couldn't miss the noise from next door to the trooper station, so after his chat with Liam, he peeked inside. Recognizing Amaya, he stuck his head in the door. "Amaya, hey. Beach, around sundown. You in?"

"Kaidan!" Amaya looked up from the nicely-coming-together forge and danced a hand in the air in a wave. "Hello! The beach, eh? You putting together a party?"

"Sort of, yeah," he nodded, "The heat's making me crazy and seems to be spoiling the moods of a lot of other people. Should be a fun to unwind."

"The heat?" asked Amaya, as another drop of sweat rolled down the side of her face. "Hadn't even noticed." She just thought it was the fiery passion of a job well done.

"But, yeah, that sounds great! unwinding should be just what I need when I'm finished with this," she gestured toward the pile of bricks and mortar taking shape, "for the day."

"Great! See you there!"

Smiths, man. Creatures of heat.

At least Amaya was pleased to find out that the little break she'd had to take these last few months hadn't sent her tolerance straight out the window.

"Sure thing! Thanks for the invite."
