hail and well met good citizens of hadriel! i am magnus burnsides, and i am new to this whole. thing. this thing i am holding in my hands. sorry if i make any weird faux pas i was literally born yesterday. i am but a babe in this land of science fiction.

this is beside my point here but there are a LOT of weird things in these houses?? does anyone know what these machines are for?? i tried pressing some buttons but now the place just smells like bad eggs?

anyway the point is:
is there any way to get back something the door didnt bring with you? like a special weapon or beloved pet or dwarven cleric? does the door do delivery basically is what im asking here. can i order take out from the door. can i special order fries from the door.

i know i just have a ton of questions and nothing really useful to offer in return. tell you what, ill make you a sweet wooden duck or something as thanks. willing to be flexible on the shape of the wooden item. alternately if you got something made of wood and its broken i can take care of that for ya. help me and ill help you?

ok thanks love you see you!

Greetings, Magnus. I am called Saber.

[ No, she can't even sound normal over text. She's only just figured out how to text, but at least she seems to have that down pat. ]

I do not know the answer to your question, but I am curious about your woodworking skills. Is there another way to obtain such an item from you?

[armcollector]

oh! if you want something made or repaired i can probably just do that as a favor.
what would you like?

[sheathes]

[ She thinks for a moment, but since he mentioned a duck... ]

Perhaps another bird of some kind. Would a hawk be acceptable?

[armcollector]

yeah, that's fine!
never made one in that shape before but i can figure it out.
hopefully i can remember what a hawk's supposed to look like and i don't end up giving it two asses or something.
although some people are into asshawks.
you can figure out what to do for me in return whenever. no rush or nothin!

[sheathes]

It does not have to be a perfect resemblance. However, please refrain from giving it... [ she has never said such a crude thing in her life ] 'multiple asses.'

I have just arrived here myself, so I have little to offer besides my skill with a sword. But I will be sure to repay you suitably in time.

[armcollector]

i will do my best not to give it many, many asses.
i'm pretty good with a sword myself, so you might have to get creative. but don't worry too much about it.
i'll make sure it looks real good wherever you want to put it.

[sheathes]

Truly? Shall we spar when you have finished your crafting, then? Not as a favour, but as a test of our skills.

[armcollector]

sure, we can do that if you want!
i'll have to pick up a sword from the armory then. i only picked out an axe so far.
but i can use anything so long as it's got a business end.
any rules you got in mind? my last sparring partner was a no-rules-just-right kinda gal. she sorta got a kick out of fighting... creatively. let's say creatively.

[sheathes]

If an axe is your preference, that is fine. I have less experience fighting against such things, but that is all the more reason to learn.

As for the rules... I suppose we should not kill one another. [ Was that... a joke? Not a good joke, but an attempt was made. ] When sparring with other knights, the winner was usually the first to gain the upper hand. It meant fights were brief, and without much chance for injury.

[armcollector]

yyyyyeah maybe let's avoid straight up murder for sport.
that has its place and its deffo not here.
i guess we could use the colosseum? that place is pretty empty now that the monsters seem to have wandered into the caves.
i can definitely treat you to a trademarked magnus burnsides good clean lesson in fighting axes.

do you wanna handwave or action this up? i'm cool with either!

[sheathes]

I look forward to receiving it. Inform me when you are available, and I will be there posthaste.

i wanna say handwave mostly because i think rping a sparring thread would get repetitive;;;

[armcollector]

sure thing!
i'll bring your hawk to the meetup. it can get some fresh air. really spread its wings.
i'll make it up tonight and we can do the sparring thing tomorrow. that sound good?
