[ Yuri's finally successfully turned on the feed! Behind him, a dog is taking up the majority of his bed, sleeping. ]

I'll be quick, because from the looks of it, the 'I get nothing going on' gets old quick. If someone can forward me a guide, I'll read it over in my own time. I'll only shake someone down for a full rundown if I really have to.

What I really need is a sword. Where to get one, if I need one made, who can make it, and the IOU's that come after that. I'm pretty sure I can wrangle out the right amont of money-- [ Legally, or illegally. A sword is important enough to break rules. ] -- for anyone who can supply.

[ There's a bit of a sigh, and following; ]

I'm Yuri Lowell. If there's anyone who knows that name, I need to talk to you ASAP. [ Even if it's not a friendly face. ]

Thanks on both counts... as for the sword, something light but durable sound alright? I know I'll need it to last me while I'm here.

Light and durable should be easy enough. I am sure I could design something you would be happy with. Give me a day or two for the drawing and you can stop by the Freyr house to collect it.

[There is that one little matter though. ]

As for payment... Since you were asking around for information does that mean you are new here?

You'd guess right. But don't worry, I'll be able to pay for it by the time it's completed.

[ He doesn't know how, but he does know if certain things stay the same no matter where you go, he can definitely get the money. ]

Si, I was not worried. I only meant to say that if you needed some time to pay it all off we could come up with an arrangement that would make it easier for you.
I know how difficult it can be to get settled here.

An arrangement? ... Do you mean an arrangement like working for you, or something like that?

That or staggered payments so you would not have to pay for the whole thing all at once.
I could use some one to make a few deliveries around town however... drop a package off here, pick up some paper there. It would help lower the price?

Sure. That's fair enough, and I need to learn my way around anyway. It's a deal.

Bene! Then I will make you up a list of the deliveries I need to have completed and you can get started on that when you have the time?

[(Good!)]

Perfect. I'm in House Loki, and I can do them whenever-- being a new guy, I don't have much to do besides wander anyway.

Then you could start by going to the art shop in town? They have a package for me, it's nothing very large.
When you bring that to the Freyr house I can give you the list and the other items in need of being delivered?

Art shop... [ He stands up, gives Repede a nod to follow him. ] Yeah, I can go find it. Anything specific I should tell them?

Just say that you are there to pick up a package for Leonardo da Vinci. I have been over there many times by now, they will know which package to give you.

I won't be slow.

[ He whistles to Repede. ]

Time to go.

[ After about a half hour, he finds his way to the art shop with his dog behind him and the package in tow.

He knocks! ]

Ah, messer! Come on in, the door is unlatched.

[A voice from inside calls but the man who spoke could not be seen until Yuri stepped inside. Leonardo was busy climbing down from a small step stool in the sitting room. It looked as if he might have been fiddling with the clock that hung on the wall there but it didn't matter much now as he hurried over to greet his guest. ]

Did you have any trouble?

[ He turns the knob and elbows the door open, taking in the scenery... well, it was different from House Loki. ]

Nope, went pretty smoothly. Here.

[ He holds out the package that was waiting for him. ]

[Leonardo excitedly took the package from Yuri. It was tempting to open it now but... shouldn't leave the man standing there. ]

Please, have a seat if you want.

[The box was placed down on an in-table while the list of deliveries and the other packages to be delivered were indicated with a wave. ]

There are the other boxes and the list is on top. One to the local bar, one to return a few books to the library, and the last couple are deliveries for each God house, to replenish their emergency kits... ah!

[He catch sight of the dog. ]

You have a helper!

[ He nods. ]

I was lucky enough to keep a good friend from home with me. This is Repede... and he'll be helping out too.

[ At the last line, the dog gives a small whine and looks towards Yuri, who takes the list and gives it a glance over. ] Alright, fair enough. I should be able to get this all out in one go. He'll help.

[ woof! ]

[ Aside, to Repede. ] Come on, you've got to pull your weight too. I know you can balance things fine on your back.

[ The dog gives a disgruntled chuff, before laying down. The language the two of them seemed to understand between each other was... honestly indecipherable. The swordsman will take a seat, just as Leonardo offered. ]

You must have a big business to require your own delivery boy.

How lucky your friend was able to join you! There was no problem with keeping him in the God house?

[Leonardo gave Repede a friendly smile before taking a seat too. He did have a great love of animals so it was nice to see a dog around. ]

Haha, he really understands you! How wonderful.

No, not really. I have been trying to get commissions but... starting over again in a new place it always takes a while to become established.
Most of those packages are filled with things I made for free. The deliveries for the God houses are all packed with emergency supplies. Apparently there had been a war that occurred before I arrived and I decided to help restock their... well, they call them 'emergency supply kits'. They were running low of bandages and things.

There are just so many God houses to deliver everything to and you being new, I thought it might help you a bit? I know it can be difficult when you are just starting out.

I'm going to do my best to get a paid room soon, but so far, so good. Apparently he's just charming enough to get invites all over to visit other houses.

[ Read: Repede is really popular with the ladies. He pauses as he listens to Leonardo's story, then gives an approving smile. ]

You're really generous. In a place like this, where no one owes anyone else anything, you're working hard to help people the best you can. I'm glad I took your offer for the job.

Edited 2013-01-25 23:39 (UTC)

I can see that. Who wouldn't want a visit from such a well behaved animal.

[Only the ladies, haha what does that say about Leo? ^^]

That is very kind of you to say. I always hoped my work might have some meaning. It might not be very much just doing supplies and things, but if it can help out a little I am glad.

Since you want a sword you must be a soldier of some kind? You will probabally be able to help out even more than I have.

[ It's a visit on business! But Repede can be well behaved with anyone... just the girls who coo at him and run right up to him tend to get his attention. ]

He doesn't really consider himself an animal. More like partway between animal and human.

Trust me-- the work you do has a lot of meaning. This much supplies going out? The people who'll get them will be really grateful for it. [ That, and Yuri has appreciation for people who do things for the good of it, even if there's no coin in exchange. ]

Once upon a time, but now I'm just a traveler and guild member. I protect and serve outside the law, if it helps.
