It had always been the more fun part of his life, not what he hoped for in the future...thats where his grades and interest in defense and other subjects came in.
Simon was broken out of his thoughts and couldn't help but laugh as Kurumi suggested an option he probably should have thought of himself having attended the class in question as well. "I almost forgot about that option," he admitted with a smile as he moved to a place where he could rest the broom down to rest steadily while he worked. He had to be careful lest he do something wrong and ruin the broom in the process so his left hand held it in place.
"Intaglio...Simon Bennett," he finally cast, using the correct wand movements and focusing for long enough for the spell to do its work. The final product actually looking quite handsome in the polished wood of the handle. "There you go...one Bennett original" he said with a smile handing it back.
Kurumi took the broom and ran her fingers over the freshly carved wood. She wasn't sure if the spell actually released smell like it did when you craved real wood, but she swore that she could smell fibers from the white ash handle in the air.
"
Thanks Simon," she chirped looking back up at him with a slight twinkle in her eyes. "
Now let's just hope I don't fall off it." She rested the brush end on the floor and leaned the handle against her.
Looking around the shed, Kurumi was beginning to wonder how long they had been in here, not that she minded really, she was glad that she had come down her now that she knew Simon was giving her such an important gift.
"
I...I guess I should head over to the pitch and test out my new broom."
