(Good. He was hoping he wouldn't have to explain much if at all.)
It's surprisingly hard to find a smith in this city.
(Well, he's found a few outside options and no doubt, LILITH probably has their own way of handling things but given his condition... he's been picky. He wants to find someone he can truly trust with his blade.)
For regular maintenance, I can handle myself if necessary. For larger things, however...
(For repairs. For emergencies. For when he isn't enough by himself.)

And for bigger ones?
no subject
If it's just for a scratch... 🐈
(A small scratch on his blade...)
25, maybe.

What use would you have for this much coal?
Surely, the kitchens in the base are more than sufficient to make food out of.

🫶🏻💗💗💗💗💗
Eh? You think I'm going to cook? I've never been allowed to before.
(Ookurikara makes sure to keep him out the kitchen. He's banned.)
It's for a forge, of course.
no subject
Ah, for your weapon?
no subject
Did you know? I'm a swordsman 🤺 and my sword 🗡️ is very ⚠️❗important❗⚠️ to me.
no subject
I would surmise that your sword is very important to you as you're a swordsman.
Without it, wouldn't you just be a man?
no subject
And hmmm since he likes him, he'll drop the silly text talk for a moment,)
Not at all.
I would be nothing.
no subject
Oh?
Is your sword so crucial to your own person?
no subject
I am a sword, after all.
(Literally.)
no subject
Ah.
Do you know of anyone capable of maintaining yourself in this world?

Maintenance, too, is only what I can offer.
As for repairs ...
[ hm, no. he'll be stabbed at this point if he does. ]
I'm afraid the person I know of has put down the hammer to take up the sword.
Whether or not he'll take up to request, I cannot guarantee.
no subject
(He's teasing. But also... noted because sometimes you need a spa treatment day.)
What better craftsman than one who understands his tools?
(Being able to use a sword sounds like a plus if you ask him.)
If we don't know the answer, we ask.
And if he refuses, he refuses.
After all, the point of caring for something is because you want to.
(He can't force anyone to care. He doesn't want someone who doesn't care for him to handle him either.)
no subject
You're not wrong.
Would you like to extend the inquiry to him personally?
If I were to ask him, I'm certain it would be misunderstood.
no subject
Since it's a personal request, it would be best to make it in person, too.
(as vague as he can be at times... he also knows when to be direct.)
no subject
Haha, you're not wrong there.
Would you allow me to accompany you should you decide to pursue it?
[ just in case!! ]
no subject
I'll allow it.
Do you have any advice before I ask for my favor?

(He's too proud. But also. He is not quite getting the real reason. It's fine.)
