[it's probably come as no surprise that archie's been a little bit of a ghost recently, what with everything that happened after the last few months. seems like he's finally got to the point where he literally cannot avoid taking time for himself, no matter how much he tries; putting on a brave face doesn't make your body heal faster, after all, and he'd decided not to ask anyone with healing powers to help-- not just yet. not when the ones he knows absorb the damage and it could still do a lot of damage. so while he's being a little less outgoing as normal-- archie's doing just that. living as normal as he can right now.
perhaps it's why, when he'd heard lucina mention pumpkin carving off-handedly months and months ago and again more recently, that's what he invites her over to do. 'tis the season, and when he asks her over, archie assures her that any failed attempts won't go to waste. pumpkin is a very vertasile food ingredient, no matter how carved to pieces it is. mostly when it's all shoved into a blender and puréed.
he only has two set out when she arrives, having noted that if she felt she wanted more practice, she can bring her own. maybe one of those plastic pumpkin carving kits they make for kids would be useful, too, seeing as all he has is a bunch of cooking knives and some of the woodworking equipment darin had given him a while back. furiously washed.]
Yo, Lu! [he greets, cheerfully. crobat is visible behind him, in the kitchen. it's... chewing on one of the pumpkins. archie hasn't seemed to have noticed. hope lucina brought more!]
