time is an illusion

[That's all right...he'll just ASSUME Eustace is equally delighted to be speaking with him...]

Then "quite large".

I've designed and built ships capable of carrying dozens of passengers, and my work within the Noctian government has afforded me greater insight into solving the problems that inevitably arise when you're trying to get a giant hunk of metal and wood to fly.

[ Ignorance is bliss, or so they say. ]

Would you be willing to build one with sufficient payment? Provided the necessary materials can be acquired.

[reznikolai]

Not only would I be willing, I'd be be thrilled.

Give me some specifics. Size? Intended purpose? Essential features? I need only a starting point.

[lockedon]

Big enough to comfortably carry several people on deck. Outside of basic transportation, it'd be used for leisure purposes.

[ Someone misses being up in the sky without being willing to say so. ]

Other than that, no particular requests. I'm no craftsman but I can help where needed.

[reznikolai]

You've got it. 😄🤝😐

I could always use an assistant. My personal workshop is dreadfully understaffed.

[i.e. it's just him lol]

i'm in tears over the lineface emoji

[ Give him a minute before: ]

🤝

[ Apparently old dogs can learn new tricks sometimes. Anyway. ]

Your [ girlfriend? sweetheart? bang buddy? ] partner doesn't help out?

a perfect likeness

[reznikolai]

She prefers watching me sweat. 😉

[Also...the girlfriend is no more, but that feels like too personal a bomb to drop on a casual acquaintance.]

[lockedon]

[ Insert the that's rough, buddy gif here. Hypothetically. ]

Fair enough. Let me know what you'll need and when you'd like to get started. I can get everything and have it ready for you.

[reznikolai]

I can gather the materials. It will be much easier, since I know what I'm looking for. 👀

But I'll happily accept remuneration once I've got them.

[lockedon]

Fair enough. Is there anything else you might need I should get?

[reznikolai]

Just your smiling face.

[lockedon]

[ He doesn't even bother to respond to that. Sad. :( ]
