"Alas, the grape learned the lesson too late," Hestia continued with the faux pitying of the grape. "But for its gallant surrender of its life to a higher cause, the unceremonious devouring will take place for it has been declared. But without the sutures."
Hestia sat down on the chair that Alicia pulled out and watched and listened closely as the younger healer explained how to perform the suture. "Godric only knows when that's coming back." Taking a good long look at the instruments in front of her, Hestia took in and let out a long slow breath before picking up the needle and pliers. Studiously bringing the pliers and needle to the grape, she did her best to follow Alicia's movements. The end result? It looked like a drunken monkey with cataracts had decided to do it instead of someone who technically should have known what they were doing. "That looks amazing," she said leaning back in her chair. "I'll proudly show Kingsley that the next time I see him."
