Tapio sensed a vague sense of scratching down around his ankles. Fortunately, this was not his first de-gnoming shindig and he had worn one of his extra sturdy pairs of hiking boots from his days in the Cairngorn Mountains in Scotland, and these were quite good protection against rocks, stinging plants, and gnomes, among other things. Reaching down, Tapio hoisted the gnome attempting to attack his feet up by the ankles and gave him a few good spins before sending him flying off.

"Hello, Javier!" he greeted his host and colleague cheerfully as he let the gnome go. "Nice day for it, eh?"


Even though Hope had selected a rather small gnome and successfully managed to grab it around the ankles, its weight proved to be too much for her small frame and she overbalanced while trying to swing it around, causing both the gnome and herself to fall down on the grass in a heap.
