[ The photograph attached to the post depicts the front of a small shop called Polydegmon's Lapidary and Brew. It's got that 'new store' look, where everything looks pristine and nothing has been touched by grime or dust settling in the corners yet. It's not the most terribly modern-looking place (look, the rent was cheap).

He wouldn't even be advertising it here if a certain someone didn't bug him to. Honestly, he could do without the publicity... ]


I am now accepting commissions as a goldsmith and alchemist. My hours are from midday to six, weekdays only. Or whatever it is you call them. No, my prices are not negotiable.

[ Attached beneath the above terse remark is the address to the store. ]

Additionally, I will NOT accept requests for items to use in warfare of any sort. At all. If I find that you have done so then I will make sure you regret it for the remainder of your days.


(ooc: Please respect that a character will suffer some kind of IC consequence if they try and use his products as IC war propaganda or in serious IC war efforts. Doubly so if they deceive him for it.

Hades...

[ This is like poking a hornet's nest. ]

... I don't think most people here want to go to war if they don't have to.
Unless I've missed something-
Most people would agree with you on not wanting it.
Including myself.

My short life and short memory are all I have,
So don't decide what I'll remember or forget for myself.

You understand far better than that.

What's really gotten you this upset?
menphina: (especially when you're tired)

!!


[ Of course they wouldn't believe him... with the different worlds people are from, how many are truly free of war and strife? Even if war didn't exist for the Ancients, didn't their fear and hubris end their tale?

She takes some time before replying. ]
menphina: (we could rename things so easily)

[ Not... that it's the same thing, but all the same, she can't imagine anyone believing in an eternal paradise where nothing goes wrong. Even if, by his words, one did exist. ]


It's small-minded to deny it, aye.
But they'd need to know a world like that to believe it, wouldn't they?
You don't deserve to hear that what you experienced didn't happen, though.
I'm more concerned that you'll anger yourself even more and hurt your heart like this, Hades.

Is it really worth your well-being?
menphina: (but oh boy am I summer)

Clearly you haven't met my Tribe. We prefer to enjoy things other than fighting and conflict.
That's why we travel.

I'm sure people don't mean to deny what you've lived- but you know better than us all, how the very stars have changed since your time.

How are you feeling otherwise, though? Do you need any help with the shop?
menphina: (because if you change it up)

If it's Hythlodaeus, then I'm sure he's doing an absolutely perfect job. ❤️

[ Tee hee. She just loves that Ancient. ]

Though aye, I am.
I'm sure I've enough growing here and what I've gathered.
Just let me know what you need! Though something interesting's been happening lately.
My gardens have been flourishing, and it's almost like I can talk to them to grow the way I want!
Isn't that amazing?



[ Her Green thumb has always felt this good- but it's never been THIS good. ]

Green magic...
That would make some sense.
Well, that just means I can get you almost everything you need!
But you'd best behave, or I might ask a vine to tickle you!
menphina: (the dicc)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-06-02 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
That was a very quick protest.
Are you sure you're not? ♥


[ :D ]
menphina: (they will know that you are a lying witc)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-06-05 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
That's playing dirty when I could have tested it myself!
Of course your beloved would know first :c

You have to have SOME weaknesses even in that body, though!
Even someone as strong as me does.
Don't ever tug my tail or I'll fight you.


[ If Solus' body can look the way it does, surely it falters somewhere!! ]
menphina: (they're all so great)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-06-08 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
That's an obvious one.
I've seen how it disorients people with it if I headbutt them!
(I've only done that once and it was well deserved, for the record!)

There are some "weaknesses" I can observe about you, though.
And I will tell you.
They might be cute! C:

Do you want to know?
