Vigilantism is delightful and delicious - as, by the way, is Sameen Shaw.

She walks into three separate bars, baklava covering her face, shoots the security camera, and describes tattoos.

Man, I would be a terrible bank robber. I would have eaten the baklava long before I took out the security cameras.

Oh god, that is marvellous.

Describes tattoos? What?

Some kind of sugar-related... crisis?

The context: she's interviewing men in bars to see if they know the men who kidnapped someone. While wearing... some kind of face-covering mask so she can't be identified. Made of either honey and pastry or black wool, depending on whether the spelling was intentional.

Mmm, baklava.

I looked at the Wiki disambiguation page for balaclavas, to check the spelling, and the first line was "not to be confused with baklava." So I guess the author above was not the first.

[rydra_wong]

I imagine also that if you spell it wrong in particular ways (maybe "baclava" instea of "balaclava"), spellcheck will correct to the wrong one.

Please let it be made of honey and pastry. Please.
