I work in a grocery store, which means I would have had to put the cane-sword down. I would have loved to take it, but I know my town, and I know it would have been stolen while my back was turned because I was working on the assisted checkouts, where there is no safe place to store the cane. And if I'd carried it everywhere with me, it would have gotten in the way of my job.

Also, we're not allowed to wear the hoods anyway because we have to keep our face's unobstructed for 'optimal customer service'.

I had the hidden blade. I had one guy take one look at me and start gushing over how authentic I looked. So people could obviously recognise what I was, my workmates are just kind of silly.
