[video] this may come as a surprise but I am not a mechanical engineer

[There's a lot of crap going on right now, sure, and whatever the more overtly-powered people have done to subdue the recent catastrophe has helped, but that doesn't mean he can continue to put certain things on his to-do list on the perpetual backburner.

Continuing his mapping and documentation process, for one. Reach out to the populace with a completely innocent, well-meaning inquiry, for another.

Also avoid dying, but that's just a general to-do these days.]

This might be a weird question, but does anyone here know how to craft...small items? Like a smith, or a carpenter, or some combination thereof?

Asking for a- [There is an awkward beat as he tries to determine whether the statement is accurate.] -friend.

Sure.

[He's watching you, Lup. You absolute terror.]

Have you talked to Sam since then?

[That's basically her middle name. You can't hurt her!! She's invincible!!]

Nope, can't say I have. Why, is he super gutted we owned you guys or what?

[Nate actually scoffs.]

Owned? You weren't even in the vicinity of owning. I've seen more realistic tears from a crocodile.

I mean fucking fair. Taako's a shitty crier, but look, my fire left you both pissin' yourselves. Just try an' deny it.

I was twelve and you manifested fire in your bare hand.

[They weren't pissing themselves, but they were definitely concerned about becoming preteen barbecues.]

It was overkill. The only reason you did it is because you knew we'd beat you in a fair fight.

[Lup waves her hand, as if waving away his complaints. Look, if he didn't want a twelve year old elf girl to threaten to set him ablaze, maybe he should have thought about that before being vaguely in the same area as her. Okay.]

Whatever. The point is our friendship is way too strong to get bogged down by what ifs and adorable threats. We're buds.
