Mmm...to be perfectly honest with you, I would be more than happy to do this for you for free. Finding shells here isn't a particularly difficult task, and that's only if you need them for something. Working with metal and machinery has long since been a passion and hobby of mine, so you giving me a project to work on merely fuels that.

[He brushes some of his hair out of his eyes, smirking.]

But you seem like the polite sort to insist you pay me somehow, so the shells will suffice. Truly, the look on your face when I deliver the finished product will be worth far more.

You know me far too well.

[Dion takes his satchel of shells and sets them down on whatever surface doesn't seem to be actively in use. The corner of his mouth twitches down as he wonders if it's enough, but decides to leave it be. Sesa is being kind enough in accepting Dion's offer.]

I admit I am interested in this trade of yours. Most of my weaponry and armor was always provided to me, you see. I should like to see something be made first hand.

[He waves his hand.]

At a later date, however. I would not distract you from your work any further.

[sesa]

[Sesa can't help but give a hearty laugh at that. It would make him sound like an asshole if he weren't so genuine about everything. This man has no thoughts and a heart that's simply too big.]

You're more than welcome to stop by any time. I usually keep my workshop open to the outside for the fresh air it provides, but these snakes have made doing that...troublesome. Come back sometime next month, I wager, and they should be gone enough for me to get back to my normal work.

But your piece will be done long before then. I give you my word.

[Wink!]

[bajamutblast]

[It's a good thing that Dion has grown very used to men who wear their hearts on their sleeve. A few weeks ago and he might have been affronted. Now, he only smiles. The people in this place are strange, but good. He's starting to get used to that.]

I shall take you up on that. And I trust you at your word.

[He gives a little bow.]

I will drop in in three days time, but do not feel as if it must be done by then. Perhaps I will simply watch you work for a time, if you will have me.

[sesa]

You are more than welcome to. I think I would quite enjoy the company, actually.

[Not many come stop by while he's working, and it's both the chance to socialize and show off, and he isn't about to pass up either.]

Be careful until then, will you? I do not want to hear that you've been stricken down by those snakes by the time you get back.

[bajamutblast]

Fear not. [He holds his hand out, palm open, to soothe any concerns Sesa might have.] I do not intend to fall prey to them any further. Though I do have to ask you do the same

[And with Sesa's doubt hopefully assuaged, Dion backs out of the room.]

Until next we meet.
