Eleven Rose Petals Fall - [Voice | Video]

[As the journal's video clicks on - activated by being bumped from Dist's bookcase onto the floor - it shows most of the man's desk and workspace. ...To say the area looks like bomb went off may be a bit of an understatement as well as a half truth. Papers, notes, sketches, and various metal and electronic parts are skewed all over the large piece of furniture. The lamp was still on, and a pile of books were open, marked with numerous slips of paper, all of which also containing notes and scribbles. Ah, the workspace of a true genius.

Dist, meanwhile, was tugging books off his shelf, looking at the titles and flipping through pages. He mutters a few "yes" and "that could be useful"s here and there, absently pushing up his glasses. Dist then begins to walk back over toward his desk...

...before he very nearly trips over his own journal. So graceful, this rose.

Uttering a sharp curse, he glances down at the object angrily and blinks. Oh, that's where it went to. Picking up the journal, he finally makes it back to his desk and seats himself. He looks over something in a book before he speaks indirectly to his journal.]


Winry, I may need to borrow your workshop later, if you don't mind. I want to add a few finishing touches to something I've been working on, and begin preparations for another project.

Oh, yes...Guy? I'd like to speak with you about that, actually.

[And, just as he's about to ignore his journal until one of the two speaks up, Dist remembers something. He lifts his head from his work and turns toward the journal's camera.]

And before I forget once again...I spoke with someone about piano lessons some time ago. I'm uncertain if the one I spoke to is still here or has been returned, but if anyone else here in Luceti is gifted in that aspect, please contact me. I'd like to make time to learn.

Well... they did kind of turn me into a boy.

I...see. Forgive my asking. [Those Malnosso people have very little shame.] But if you're all right, then I can come over and pick it up any time you're available.

Anytime is okay! I'm at the smithy from noon until dusk most days. Sometimes even after that.

[Voice]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-19 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Then could I come over now? I'd like to finish my first project today, if I could. It shouldn't take me too long, and I could take the frame home once I'm finished.

Sure, you'll have to follow safety rules though. Protective gloves, glasses, and so on.

[...What. It's not like he's working with explosives! ...Today.]

Fine. I understand.

[Voice]

I look forward to seeing you here, Dist. Until then!

[Voice | Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-19 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, until then. I'll be there as soon as possible.

[Closing his journal, Dist gathers his things, gets ready, and heads over towards the smithy. In a short while, he's entering the shop and peering around for the young lady.]

Winry?

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[..Nah, you've seen one sword, etc, you've seen them all. Plus, Dist has very litter interest in weapons. He's actually peering at what Winry's working on with quiet curiosity. What are you working on, he wants to see iiiit!]

Ready to work on your project?

[Oh, he is definitely interested in those parts, if the rather obvious light in his eyes is any indication, and makes his way over to inspect them a little better. Her question flies over his head for a second or two as Dist marvels over the craftsmanship, then seems to wake up and turn to Winry.]

Hm? Oh! Y-Yes...yes, I apologize. Just what exactly are you working on, my dear? You really quite a talented young lady.

[identity profile] crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Just some spare parts for a friend's arm. I want to have some spares ready before it gets damaged.

[Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
My, you're very well prepared. Though that must mean your friend damages it often. [He chuckles, knowingly. Anise's doll needed constant maintenance, though she did seem to take very good care of the thing nowadays.] Now, is there another workspace I could borrow for an hour or so? It shouldn't take that long, but I'd hate to interrupt your work, Winry.

[Action]

[identity profile] crytears-ofjoy.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, no! Please feel free to use mine! I need to start drafting some designs on something else anyway.

[Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
All right. Thank you, my dear.

[And, after setting up his tools and the nearly complete fontech pistol - looking much like an old antique gun - he'll start working on its finishing touches and making sure every compartment and piece is properly assembled and works to optimum efficiency. He checks and double checks the small device for gathering and amplifying the fifth fonons to produce into condensed bullets especially, since that was basically what made it fire, and what with the severe lack of fonons in Luceti...]

It seems to be working perfectly. Excellent.

[Hell, not this tripe again...] Technically, it's already been made. I'm just adding on the finishing touches and making certain it works as I planned it to.

...If you're going to argue my owning a firearm, please do take into the consideration the very nature of Luceti and those residing within it.

-No, no of course not. I've known plenty of people who own guns.

[Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-24 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
Yet you still seem disturbed that I now own one. [Said whilst working. Dist has little time for discussion, what with his limit on meeting brook for their lesson being only an hour.]

[Action]

[identity profile] crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com 2011-01-24 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
I... really haven't had a good time with guns, that's all. It's none of my business if you own a gun.

[Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-24 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm...I see. [He looks at Winry from the corner of his eye, pushing up his glasses before he turns his attention back to his gun.] Well, you won't have much to worry about, my dear. This gun... [He takes the pistol and points it at the opposite wall, pulling the trigger. It makes a light sound similar to a gunshot, just much softer. And there was no damage to the wall.] ...isn't yet completed. Damn it...I'll have to rework the device inside again. Are there really so little available fonons?

At this rate, that won't work either...

[Action]

[identity profile] its-rose-damnit.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Correct. Fonons are what make up matter on my planet. Matter is composed of fonon and elements on Auldrant, and fonons are also what makes fonon technology - fontech - operate. That is why the lack of fonons here in Luceti is posing a very large problem for my work!

[Action]

[identity profile] crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Right, right. That's Professor Nebilim said.

Does this gun do anything special with fonons, or do you simply require a firearm?
