[The decor is mostly a collection of oddities collected on trips--or things that might have been collected on trips. Some of the things Vastra identified as hers, others were simply intriguing. Amongst the tchotchkes are other Victorian curiosities. Bugs and butterflies on pins, small paintings, small volumes of poetry and foreign language dictionaries, swords and short swords and knives mounted to one section of the wall above an elegant and well-tended sword display, two shelves of a seemingly random assortment of books, a few potted plants, three rugs, a dozen cushions... to start.]
Of course. I reason that the more well-armed we all are, the better it is for everyone. [Vastra brings the teapot over, along with two cups fitted with tea strainers. All of it is spread out on a rather hideous ceramic tray with painted kittens, which is set on the half-wood, half-glass coffee table. Next to the six or seven knives Vastra has laid out.]
