Unnecessary roughness.

Today I went and picked up the gingerbread house I'd commissioned for this story I'm doing. It was pretty impressive - more a gingerbread village, really, with people around the outside and a little pond with benches. But after it was photographed, what good is it just sitting around? So I brought it out for the enjoyment of the people who will eat anything. And while they did eat it, they also destroyed it, and put the poor little figurines into situations they never should have known in their short lives.
