Are there any tailors in town? The post office returned my clothes to me but took two of my fingers! Not to mention they got all bloody after that...

I was thinking maybe I could have someone help recreate them, then I can return these to the post office and get my fingers back! Brilliant, eh? I don't have a lot to give you in return since the town won't give me a job but... I don't know, I'll figure something out! I'm confident I can be of help somehow. Errands and such? I even have a bike now to do it with! I've even figured out how to ride it now.

If you can get me the equipment and materials and allow me to keep them when we're done, I'll tailor for you.

Equiment? You mean you need a sewing machine and all that? Ah, I don't have anything like that, nor the money to buy them, I'm afraid!

That would depend on what exactly I would be attempting to recreate. I have some needles, so I can do some excellent modification, but if we're looking at something I'd need to do from scratch, we're out of luck.

Some suits. Of course it could be done by hand, but I imagine it'd be difficult. Hmmm. Well, I'll work on finding a sewing machine and the like! If that's what I need to do, so be it. What's your name?

Hmm, well, difficulty is never an issue for me, and I have little else to occupy my time.

Mn...My name is Chouno Koushaku.

Alright, well, I'll try to collect the matierials then, and I'll get back to you!

I'm Cynric! Pleasure to meet you.

I'm available almost anytime.

Ah...The sentiment is returned, I suppose.

I can't tailor, but I have money and need of an errand-runner if you're interested.

Oh! Really? Excellent! Aha, you see this town insists I'm a child and I can't seem to get a job. I would be glad to help!

It's been perfectly normal in most eras I'm familiar with for a [Scoff. Really doesn't like this word.] "woman" to employ a younger person for errands and other daily help. They may appreciate our dedication to this farce.

[He laughs at that.] I'd hate to see how they'd reward us! But I can start helping you immeidately, if you need. What's you're name? I'm Cynric.

Elizabe-theta Buckley. I live at 1333 Benny Road. I need tools suitable for making clockworks--small pliers, small screwdrivers, that sort of thing--tools suitable for wood carving and staining--on the small scale of things, not big awkward ones--and anything relating to clockwork materials you can find--gears, springs, that sort of thing. The first two just enough to work with will suffice, though I may need to send you out for more varnish. The last you can consider a standing order--bring it if you find it, and I'll pay you for quantity.

Oh! oh, really? [You can hear him digging through stuff while he talks.] Ah, goodness, if only you had said something a few days sooner! I had things like that, yes, but I gave most of them to Dist, you see. [Rummagerummage] No matter though, I found all that stuff and I'm sure I can find you more! But, you build machines too? That's excellent! So many people around here do. It's very exciting.

Dist? [Yeah, someone's getting a phonecall. You can guess by her tone of voice if you're the observant type.]

I am an ergaleomancer. Is that what Dist is?

"Ergaleomancer"...? [You can tell he's taking that word apart in his head.] Ha, in all my years, I've never heard of that area! No, I don't believe so, he calls what he does...ah, something to do with "fonons". But I think that's just his world's word for spellcasting.

[From the Greek word for gear and the Greek word for divination, if he's up on his root words.] 'Fonons'? I think I ought speak with him directly. But yes, bring me whatever you have available and anything further you find.

Oh, Dist is great, I'm sure he'd be glad to talk with you. And I'll work on finding more matierials for you! Maybe if he has any parts left over that he's not going to use, you can have them.
