[ 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.

[ She reaffirms quietly, feeling only a touch self-conscious, but also knowing this is a transaction or examination no more than she would show a healer- it doesn't feel intimidating or threatening to her as the Hebionna had.
At his question, she nods, glancing over her shoulder. ]
A little larger. I don't mind their image staying as it is. They're not uncomfortable otherwise, and I can decorate them if I ever need to.
[ Though, she can't help but add with a smile. ]
Or perhaps, I could ask you to if ever the need arises?
[ In total, there are six limiters on her— four on her arms and wrists and two around her ankles. ]
But I would like to be sure they don't hurt when I move... it doesn't look as nice when I dance when it stings to gesture.
[ Which has been a growing problem of late. ]
I really do appreciate you doing this, Master Emet-Selch. And- I also apologize for Lord Nobunaga... he may have been very aggressive with you and oughtn't have.

[ Turning away, he plucks a fresh sheet of paper from the pile on his bench and begins to carefully draw a circle. His brow is furrowed in concentration as he adds esoteric details to it for the effect he wants. ]
Lord...who? [ he asks absently. He isn't aware that one of the men he'd been arguing with earlier on the network had been them. ]
this got lost to the abyss... control thine darkness, emmy.
Mortals were usually more invested in things that shouldn't really be troubled with, after all.
She's silent for a bit, before shaking her head. ]
He's someone I've met here... the man speaking to you of war. A strange mortal warlord... though he shares a name with a Demon Lord I am acquainted with in my own realm.
[ She looks up at him, curiously. ]
... have you ever experienced such a thing, Master Emet-Selch? Knowing someone you already do, but as a different existence entirely?
never
[ He mutters and shakes his head, scrapping the page and marking up a new sheet. ]
Yes, I have. I have met three who all lay claim to the same identity. 'Twas baffling at first but I decided to simply accept it.
no subject
[ She repeats in surprise, watching him. ]
I thought one was surprising enough, but three of the same? I suppose it isn't impossible with so many worlds, but...
[ She looks at him with a tilt of her head. ]
He also told me that his lover was named the same as myself, but that we were nothing alike. Yet, the coincidence of myself knowing a man with his name, and him knowing of a person with my name...
[ She sighs. ]
Forgive me... perhaps it means nothing in the end. Do you get along with them?
no subject
[ He's unsure whether one could call it 'getting along' or 'being resigned to one another's presence'. Felih, at least, seems to love him whole-heartedly. Irhya, he is less sure of.
He tries not to think about Jophrey. The man is no longer with them after all. ]
There are only two left. I wonder when they, too, will leave me behind...
[ Finally satisfied with the circle he's drawn, he gestures for her to lift her arms slightly away from her body and hold still. ]
