[Gavin had been on his best behavior since his release, but Maxwell knew also how fond he was of goods from the kitchen. Lithe as he was, Maxwell wasn't certain the elf would be quick enough to escape Avery's wrath should she catch him in the act.

He'd heard she had a hell of a swing.]

If you do discover who it is, perhaps rather than beating them senseless, report them to me. I'm sure we can up with a suitable, less violent, punishment.

[Good! I mean, she isn't actually going to be beating anyone with a rolling pin, but if people really THINK she would, then maybe that will scare the thieves off.]

Do you have something in mind?

[dreadinquisitor]

Well, the punishment should fit the crime - perhaps kitchen duty? A date with the evening meal's dishes would give anyone pause.

Or perhaps if they knew the effort required to make all those goodies they enjoy, they'd be less inclined to just take them.

[thecookery]

[...okay. It's not a bad idea.]

They'll still've got to be caught first.

[dreadinquisitor]

I have a few thoughts on that, as well. But not over the crystals, we should talk in person. Perhaps next time I pick up the weekly orders?

[thecookery]

Sure. You know where to find me.
