Um. There's probably some pieces from both sides of
the family that we'll be gifted when we do the tying the knot thing but we
can pick or make up our own, too, if we want to.
Are we actually going to start putting china in it now?
We can. Just like... later. We might end up with
people who'd like that sort of thing passed down. And some will definitely
be gifted to us at some point.
Oh, yes. I've actually started researching that but
none I've seen yet have a sturdy enough lock for me.

Well that's settled then :-)
I think that's a great tradition, let's do it
no subject
First tradition specifically for our new place.
no subject
We should find a tradition to commemorate our traditions
Like... you know how people have shadow boxes or whatever?
Something like that where we can put a little something to commemorate traditions or big moments
no subject
That's a good idea - it couldn't just be a shadow box though, that's too small. We might have to go full old lady glass cabinet.
no subject
Okay we can look at thrift stores for one of those
no subject
Works for me. We've gotta paint it crazy colors or something though. Do something so the outside doesn't have that old lady don't touch vibe.
no subject
So I guess we're not putting a bunch of doilies in the cabinet too?
no subject
... Do you want doilies?
no subject
We should have at least one
Is your mom going to want us to pick out like a China pattern and stuff?
Wait do you have a China pattern already?
no subject
Alright, we can have one doily.

no subject
No that’s just where my brain pinballed too
We don’t have to have any China
We’re gonna have some of those display cases for weapons and stuff though, right?
no subject
We can. Just like... later. We might end up with people who'd like that sort of thing passed down. And some will definitely be gifted to us at some point.
Oh, yes. I've actually started researching that but none I've seen yet have a sturdy enough lock for me.
no subject
We should see if there are China patterns with knives
How sturdy do they have to be?
no subject
I tried googling that and just confused the search engine
Sturdy enough to defeat what I was like as a child.
no subject
It would need to be sturdy enough to defeat you with super strength and the ability to climb walls
no subject
I had not even accounted for that, shit. But yes, exactly.
no subject
We'll figure out something
no subject
Bolt it to the wall, for one thing.
no subject
Maybe some sort of alarm if one of them is removed?
no subject
Oh, yes, that's a great idea.
no subject
I'm starting a list
no subject
Perfect, between the two of us we ought to cover anything
