[ oh wow he called her, okay she totally wasn't expecting that! but she does pick up the phone and tries her best to sound not to sound too surprised. ]
You're very welcome! I'm glad you liked it, Shuwen. It's not like I have much else to do at the minute.
[ He silently cracks up for a few seconds. It's not you, Savia. He's just a shit. ]
Oh? Really? [ He sounds way too enthusiastic about this. ] 'Cause you know, I mean, if you got the time... I was wondering if I could commission you something.
It depends on what it is, I don't have all my tools here but I can make most things I know how to do back home - music boxes, automaton toys and the like.
[ This poor girl is really unaware that she's a shit, which makes her a perfect mark. ]
Hmm. I see, I see. Very interesting! Machines are well beyond my time, but even an ordinary handsome gentleman such as I can see the appeal of the modern toaster.
[ Being handsome has nothing to do with this. He just wanted to call himself handsome. ]
[ There’s a long pause at the end of the line. Savia’s not sure what to make of that statement. She was going to agree with Shuwen about him being good looking but this is making her conflicted. In theory, she knows how to make any weapon. In practice, not so much. There’s also the feelings of inadequacy because her father didn’t care for her and he was the most esteemed weapon maker of the age.
Would he notice if she lied? ]
I’ve never made one before.
[ Ok maybe a half truth ]
Never needed to, I guess.
[ I mean who needs weapons when you can turn into a divine being? ]
[ True, true. Divine beings are way more effective at hurting people.
He can sense some hesitation in that sentence. Still, his gut tells him to press onward. Maybe he'll get something out of this. ]
Don't worry, don't worry. I won't use it for anything bad. I'm a martial arts teacher, see? I just want to teach people a lesson. Besides, If you can make something like this, [ He is literally putting sushi on the trainset right now. ] I have full faith in your abilities! The weapon I want is not that hard to make, I think. I wouldn't know. This sort of thing is beyond my expertise. Wahahahaha!

I want a staff. It's not just any staff, though.
