Greetings, this is Gamagori Ira.

[Ah... a pause.]

I'm addressing the network for personal reasons. You are free to disregard this message.

[Personal reasons, what in the world... But this is Gamagori?]

I am looking into renting out a studio space with another imPort, Fei Fong Wong. To anyone who is artistically inclined and wishing for more space!!-

Would you be interested in taking part in this endeavor? The space will be a large one so there will be plenty of room to move around! Especially concerning the craft I will be taking part in myself.

Thank you for taking the time to listen.

I didn't know you were into the arts, Mr. Gamagori!

Audio

[bulwank]

I am not exactly, it is something my family is known for but seems like a worth while way to spend my time, even here.

Though I am inexperienced...

Audio

[unbreaker]

Wait...so is it worthwhile because you think you might dig it, or because it's something your family is into?

Audio

[bulwank]

I was always intrigued by my uncle's work as a child. But yes, my family's experience with this sort of thing is what started my intrigue.

Audio

[unbreaker]

Oh, that's cool, then! So it's kind of like a calling. A hereditary one or something.

What kind of art are you gonna take up? Painting like Fei? He's really great, huh? Or maybe you'll do sculpting!

Audio

[bulwank]

You could call it that, yes!

I've yet to see what Fei is capable of, I am looking forward to it, as for myself, metal smithing. I wish to learn how to craft armor as my uncle does.

Audio

[unbreaker]

He's shown me a sketch before and he's working on a portrait of my mom for me...but basically, the guy's got skills. A great eye for detail!

[A pause...and then you can hear Josuke practically grin.]

So, like...you'll be making hero suits and stuff. Nice! But what about things besides armor, like...maybe you'd be able to make jewelry?

[...because depending on the metal, he could be a potential customer for some custom bling.]

Audio

[bulwank]

Your mother? Through description of her alone?

[Wow, he really IS impressed! And... now considering commissioning him as well...]

Ah...hm. Perhaps I will ask him to do the same for me, though I'm unsure what to do in trade. Did you commission him?

Jewelry? I'm unsure if something like that will come easily to me... [Unless he shrinks down really small, but... when does he ever want to do that?]

Audio

[unbreaker]

Well, sort of. Had to provide some color samples and stuff, but...for the most part, yeah. Just description. 'Cause I lost that picture, you know? And when I saw how good he was, I couldn't pass up the opportunity!

[Whatever, he's not ashamed right now of sounding thrilled about having a picture of his mom again. And why should he be? Especially an artist's rendition. Actually, he kind of wishes he could SHOW his mom. Her reaction would be...well, he'd want to put a box of tissues between them, he's pretty sure, but it'd be sweet.]

Yeah, I commissioned him! I think we'll be talking dollars when it's done, though. Anyway, you should talk to him if there's something you want to have painted or drawn!

And...it's cool, it was just a thought!

[Maybe Gamagori can make stuff for the mechs that've shown up...? How awesome would that be?]

[glitterateur]

Crafts! What crafts are you doing?!

video

[bulwank]

These are not exactly... crafts... Ms. Pines. Well mine will not be.

[glitterateur]

Really? 'Cause I still think you should take up macrame or crocheting!

[bulwank]

Macrame or- I'm not familiar with those things. [Those words sound familiar but he's at a loss here... the english words don't actually ring a bell.]

[glitterateur]

Knotting stuff or using a hook to make fabric basically! [The less superior versions of knitting.] So if you're not crafting what're you doing?

[bulwank]

Hmm, I'm not sure I would do well with that... [You've seen his hands right...]

No, I am crafting.

[glitterateur]

...well they might need to make you special needles or something but it'd still be relaxing!

But what are you crafting? A monologue? An interpretive dance number?

[bulwank]

Armor.

[A pause. Maybe he should consider what she's talking about though, at some point anyway. Mabel is young and a little excitable but... the Muppets situation proved to him that perhaps they will like the same things more and more. He feels like it might be funny in some way for him to learn to make clothes or blankets... considering everything from home.]

[Maybe Iori knows about this needle art.]

[wayhot]

Hm... would the place you're thinking about renting out be able to handle high temperatures? [There's not much artistic stuff she can do other than working with glass, pottery, or metal. Though she did enjoy doing the latter back when the winter holidays rolled around.]

video

[bulwank]

Yes, it will have to! What I will be doing needs strength enough to handle high temperatures. Was there something a studio may be of use to you to do, Princes?

video

[wayhot]

I was thinking I could maybe do stuff with metal again. It was a lot of fun to work with back when I was making presents for people in December.

video

[bulwank]

Ah, so then we both would! Perhaps we could plan out a few projects together. What better heat source, though i would still have to learn the proper temperatures for crafting.

video

[wayhot]

Oh, that could be fun! [And more excuses to spend time together. Win/win!] As for the temperatures, it usually depends on the kind of metal you want to use. But I could adjust myself pretty easily, so I don't think it'd be a problem.

video

[bulwank]

[Any excuse to hang out more, definitely. He's smiling but you can't see it.]

Yes, you have such control and discipline with your abilities, I trust your skill completely! But I would like to learn for myself... ah, perhaps you could teach me, Princess!

video

[wayhot]

I'm not really sure how good I'd be at teaching since I've only made small things before... but I could try!

video

[bulwank]

Ah, I mean with heat control, and what is appropriate! This will prove to be a learning experience for the both of us though.
