Well Faye is responsible enough that she isn't going to let her make a real sword... it's also must be kinda limited what you can make from reshaping a truck spring.
She is definitely the one teaching her bad grammar though. :-P
Akima:
"Why do you gotta"... All those years learning your bizarre language, aspiring to speak it "like a native"... Wasted. :-D
As for the sword... Faye and Sam just need to forge the other one of the pair, and then fit the grips, guards etc. If anything, the blade is a little long for Sam (the length of the wielder's forearm is the key measurement). Gratuitous pic of Liu Yifei just because.

May your deity of choice bless you, top photo.

I've been absent the last few days of conversation, but allow me to be briefly opinionated:
Faye's dress looks good, on her and in general- I certainly enjoy the similar ones worn at a local 50s diner. The number of people flinging around severely negative statements about it is really surprising- what is it about fashion that brings forth such vitriol? Would we accept such acerbic attitudes on any other topic? I mean, disliking it is fine, but people were positively juvenile/ fashionista magazine columnist about it.
Pintsize would consider any job that takes place at a sausage fest to be unacceptable. It's all about the ladies.
Sam is awesome, aside from butchering the language. I read a Sociology text recently that tried to justify nonstandard grammar like Ebonics on the grounds that the only necessity is that the meaning be clear, and the conflict between that oversimplification and my own views has made me more sensitive than usual. Other than that, I really like the character.
Dora is reminding me why I dislike her. Such a negative person.
I consider myself quite nerdy, but only in terms of knowledge, not passion. I enjoy, say, Doctor Who (or the history of keyboards, or the various existing types of swordplay), but am dumbfounded at how into it people get. I generally am far better at understanding than regurgitating, so it's often the case that I can follow a conversation but not contribute to it.
I see no problem with a girl Sam's age being so mobile, especially in a small New England town. The number of things modern Americans have convinced themselves are worthy of fear (and their disproportionate responses) never cease to dismay me.

Am I the only one that caught this? Resisting jokes.

Unless they turn over a new leaf.

I'm sure they can hammer things out.

It's nice seeing those two forge a relationship

Akima, the only thing gratuitous about that photo is the paired knives to the left.
And not to be a spoilsport, but shouldn't the blank still be rather warm?
Personally, I'm wondering how she's planning to finish the sword off and market it.
