This has probably been done to death, but the idea of Halsin loving repetitive, soothing tasks if so cute to me. He loves whittling, but imagine all the other things he finds peace in.
Skipping rocks, braiding a loved one's hair, applying decorative paint.
maybe even chores the others won't do because they're so tedious. I can picture him refilling water skins and humming to himself, content in his thoughts and the knowledge he is helping his friends
I absolutely adore all of these little things. Doesnāt matter if it falls into a trope, tropes are well loved. While others find repetitive tasks boring, he finds them soothing. Heās lived much longer than his companions and he has found beauty in the mundane. He makes dish washing feel like less of a chore, he competes with Karlach and Wyll to see how many laundry bins they can carry to and from the river. His gentle nature and fatherly aura makes camp feel a little less tense.
Though my Tav does not have long hair, Halsin would probably find a way to make a little braid. Heād love helping to wash Tavās hair as an act of service and kindness.
