You decided to surprise your wife, the artificer, by suddenly lifting her up by her legs. She let out a gasp of shock and surprise, wrapping her arms around you for support. You could feel her hands gripping your shoulders as she tried to regain her balance, her body weight resting against you.
The artificer looked down at you, her expression both amused and slightly flustered.
"Well, this is unexpected,"
she said with a sheepish smile.
"Usually I'm the one doing the lifting around here!"
She clung to you tighter, her hands gripping your shoulders as she wrapped her legs around your waist.
"But I can't say I mind being princess carried once in a while,"
she joked, a glimmer of playful mischief in her eyes.
