013 - Phone

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup's been slightly in a daze since the prom since. OMG PROM KING. wtf. Still not really sure what that means, he's trying to forget it happened.

Part of that includes getting back into the forging business. Which is why he's making this phone call.]

Hi everybody. Just thought you should know that I'm still doing stuff out at the forge. If anyone wants anything, just let me know and I can probably make it for you. All I need are specifications and materials or a way to get the materials I'll need.

Uh... yeah. Just let me know. Don't worry if you're wanting something complicated, either. I can probably figure it out. It'll make it more interesting, anyway.

And... I guess just as a side note I should thank everybody who voted for me. Uh. Yeah. Thanks. That was kind of fun, I guess.

How serviceable is your work?

[worstvikingever]

Uh... very, I guess.

[commentboxtroll]

Now that's timing...

Any chance that 'weaponry' falls under the range of anything?

[xuffasch]

Tt. So if I get you to make me something useful, it's not going to just fall apart from use or something?

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, sure. Depends on what you're looking for, though. I'm not really... I can't do really advanced stuff. Advanced being... I dunno. I'd have to see what you wanted.

[worstvikingever]

Depends on the use. Are you a seven-foot tall Viking with massive muscles fighting dragons?

[commentboxtroll]

Advanced stuff... [Oh. He must mean like all the machines this place has.] Nah. Nothing like that. I'm only looking to get a sword made.

[worstvikingever]

[Phew. Okay he's kind of relieved.] Oh yeah, no problem.

[commentboxtroll]

[But only because no one has introduced him to tanks yet.]

I can get you the specs to you no problem, but tracking down the materials...

[There's a brief pause. Idea.]

...would one of those cars have the right kind of metal in them?

[worstvikingever]

Oh yeah, sure. The cars are made of metal that can be repurposed pretty easily.

[commentboxtroll]

Yeah? Which parts? The colored layer seemed flimsy to me.

[worstvikingever]

Well by "easily" I mean it's kind of a process but I know how it works now and it's not that hard anymore.

[coolbowtie.livejournal.com]

What about a tea kettle?

[worstvikingever]

Uh... yeah sure. But can't you just buy one in town?

[coolbowtie.livejournal.com]

Well fine. I was trying to humor you since I could make anything quite as easily myself.

[worstvikingever]

No, I mean... I'm sorry. I just. I was confused that you'd want me to make something special that you could just as easily get in town... never mind. Um. I'm sorry.

[coolbowtie.livejournal.com]

Because a made tea kettle is more interesting than any one I could buy at the shop.

[worstvikingever]

...yeah, sure. That's... that makes sense.

Yeah, I can make you something. Do you want anything in particular, or just something simple?

[coolbowtie.livejournal.com]

Do whatever you'd like! Though I'd definitely go for interesting over simple.

[worstvikingever]

...okay, cool. Should be fun.

[braided_icarus]

A forge, huh? [He can get by with his alchemy easily enough, but he's betting this guy must have spoken to Winry at some point. Surely. Knowing her.]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Hey Hiccup. Do you need help plotting what cars are easiest to strip for metal?"

[xuffasch]

Obviously not.

...so if I bring over some supplies and mock ups, you can make me a sword?

[worstvikingever]

Definitely.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, that's right. It's kind of small, but it works, and that's all that matters.
