Fifty-Eighth Theory [Voice/Action]

Open Voice

The person who made the little wind-up dragon... can I have another?

Action for Nezumi

[The reason Don needs another dragon is because he took the first one apart to make a camerabot for someone he doesn't even know. He hopes this was a good idea.]

[He heads to building three, floor one, room five, as he was told, and knocks five times.]

Action for Isamu

[After making that delivery, Don circles southward to the home of one Isamu Nitta. Allegedly some other people live here too, but Don has never met them. Hopefully, if they exist, they won't mind too much that a giant turtle is climbing in their window. Isamu did say to surprise him.]

Action for Buffy

[Around sundown, Don makes his way to House 7. He knocks here too, though he doesn't count how many times. He has a question to ask...]

((Housemates of the people Don is looking for are welcome to tag in, and of course the Voice part is open to anyone pinged by clockwork draconids.))

... For what?

voice;

[dragoneer]

Oh--uh, about the impressive engineering comment. I'm, er, the one that built them. The wind-up dragons.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[...]

Are you sure? The little flying ones?

voice;

[dragoneer]

...Well, I'm pretty sure. Unless someone else made some flying wind-up dragons, too. [Which he doubts.]

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

... Would you excuse me a moment?

voice;

[dragoneer]

...Uh. Yeah, sure. No problem.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[A few minutes later.]

Would you happen to have any blueprints, and would you mind sharing them?

voice;

[dragoneer]

...Ahhh, blue prints? I didn't really...think about that. I just made them.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[After another moment.]

Sorry about that. I believe you. [Awkward pause.] You're very talented.

voice;

[dragoneer]

...Oh, well, uh. Thank you. It wasn't much, really.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[Where has he heard that before. 8| ]

So, um, can I bribe you for another?

voice;

[dragoneer]

Ah--no bribe necessary, really. If you want one, I can make one, but--why?

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[Does he really have to explain this again?]

I was short on parts and needed to repurpose the wind-up mechanism for another project.

...

A worthwhile cause, I promise.

voice;

[dragoneer]

Ahhh...[Well, alright. If he really wants one.] Yeah, I can do that. No problem.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

Thanks!

Is there - anything I can do in exchange?

voice;

[dragoneer]

Only if you really feel the need to. I do stuff like this all the time for smithy customers, soooo....

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

[HE'S DYING TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE. GIVE HIM A HINT.]

You work at the smithy?

voice;

[dragoneer]

...Errr. Yeah, I do. Most days, anyway.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

Should I stop by sometime to pick it up?

voice;

[dragoneer]

Sure. Ahh--how about next Monday? I can be sure to have it done by then.

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

That sounds great.

((Is that an invitation to hit up your appointments post?))

voice;

[dragoneer]

Alright. I'll see you then, then?

((sure! go for it!))

voice;

[i_speak_softly]

Definitely.
