There's nobody here to make weapons.

[Blunt, void of feeling, and crisp. She doesn't even drum her fingers on the counter beside the open book.]

Winry's gone too.

[One more dart.]

If you want to work here, there's room.

[As long as you leave her alone and don't ask about interviews.]

--

[Those interested in purchasing her wares, picking up things they asked for, or unpleasant conversation with Raven the eternally grumpy, can find her in the smithy in the morning through midafternoon, and then in the cafe, trying and failing to sort out what she's supposed to do with an art club it pains her to attend.]

Is that so? I suppose I will have to wait for them here... Unless you know when either of them will be by?

Not a problem, I am a talker after all. I'll charm the pants off them fo shizzle my weaponsmith nizzle.

[He'll probably make them want to beat him]

[He's as undeterrable as Masaomi. Just without most of Masaomi's more annoying points.]

I don't know.

Not really.

[She does have it all wrapped up in something, to avoid the dust. Beckoning Eley over to the counter with one quick motion, she unwraps his request - in its third iteration, and thus not the stone he initially asked for.]

Thanks.

My fiance and I can come down to the smithy so we can figure that out. [Since Itachi already wears a ring, he's easy. Law will need some measurement.] When's good for you?

[He prides himself on it.]

You don't? Well... how about you taste-test one for free? [He says as he meekly presents an oatmeal cookie towards her, smiling encouragingly.]

It's okay to leave during lunch as long as I'm back in time! And Soren and I can fly, so we can get back and forth in time easy. It's not like the smithy and the school are that far apart anyway, you know?

[ Getting places fast is actually one of their combined virtues. If they don't get distracted. ]

[He doesn't hesitate to follow her and when she presents him with her work, he can't hide the look of surprise on his face. Pleasant suprise though. It might not be exactly what he had expected, but somehow he believed this would work even better.

He takes it carefully in his hands, looking it over.]

Thank you. I only hope that my original plan will work. Even if it does not, I will not let your hard work go to waste.

It's not my...

[Oh. Raven looks around. Is it hers now? She's the one who's worked there the longest.]

I don't mind.

I don't work on Thursdays.

[Other than that, she has little else to do now.]

[To her credit, Raven makes an honest attempt at figuring out what he meant.]

What?

[A heavy sigh and shuffle-steps bring her around the corner, reaching for the cookie.

Doesn't he know? She can't even go into the bakery anymore, trying something from it that isn't Rapunzel's...just won't be the same.]

It's okay.

I...hope it works too.

[After all, it would reflect badly on her if it didn't. It's not like she wants it to or anything.]

[It would be better for Kyle to see Soren more often.

She has to tell herself that in order to agree.]

Okay.

Asami is usually here. Leon comes when he wants.

[What made this girl think she could just show up and start doing things? Raven's already set to bristle, the brashness only makes it worse.]

[The fact that Raven said that working there since there's room kind of gave her that impression, but she'd wait until she was given permission at least. A soft sigh leaves her and she nods, instead taking the time to look around. She could do that much, at least.

In the meantime, Raven will likely hear Adela mumbling to herself over the state of the tools - namely, admiration in how well they had been used and that whoever was working there had to have been highly skilled. It's more to herself than anyone else, but that doesn't mean the praise is kept to herself.]

I'm... I'm still practicing. [He says with a slightly faded smile.] I know it's not as good as... other kinds of cookies. And my people specialized in fruit pies after all. But... I hope I get better! [He feels like he needs to be able to make treats that can bring smiles to people's faces.]

Then it's a date!! We'll have lunches together. I can even pick them up for whatever you want that day, or we can bring whatever we pack. I dunno! It'll be fun, though.

[ And they can just...not think about all the empty spaces building up around them. ]

Noted. [Good thing tomorrow isn't Thursday.] My partner and I will come in tomorrow, alright?

[Asami offers the girl a small, understanding smile.]

You're the last one standing, I'm afraid.

[And then a grin.]

Thanks. And see? It's already a bit less lonely and you didn't even have to hire anyone new yet.

I've got some experience making weapons. Two of my friends do, too. We work best together. [Fayt frowns, though she can't hear it. Her voice seemed.... odd.]

Hey, If you don't mind me asking... are you alright?

I will let you know what happens.

[It only seemed fair since she had asked about his well-being before. That and surely she would like to know that her work had been a true success.

Now though, he becomes more curious about the girl herself.]

Are you all right?

[ He makes to sit up now, holding his head because ow... ]

Well, maybe I wanted to hear your poetry.

I'm going to be super special chocolately covered sorts of awesome topped with badassery?

[He raises an eyebrow]

[There's no time to be sad here. Even if he didn't know Winry too well, it's still sad.

So he tries to be upbeat.]

Riiii-iiight here. I can make weapons and armor like nobody's business. May not be expert material but I'd say they're decent.
