Dante nodded in understanding, eye candy for the tourist he reasoned, and knew of the practice. Dante made cursary glance around the room, taking it in but not peticularly focuseing on any one thing.
"You've obviously had better luck with apprentices than I have..." Dante joked casaully " my last apprentice passed away before he ever got to pick up a hammer.. quite sad really..." Dante frowned at the memory but followed on as he entered the display room. Dante was impressed but decided hed have time to really inspect things later, afterall with the agreement, he had no plans of runnign off anywhere, for the moment.
"Excellant workmanship, youve been as smithy for how long again?"

Sienna paused slightly at the question and considered.
Truth be told I've been practicing for only 5 years. And on and off the first two.
A slight noncomittal shrug followed.
The first time I saw a master smith at work I think I kinda go a spark or something. I have a habit of picking up skills incredibly quickly if my teacher is any good at all.

"Hm." Dante remarked simply, there was little mroe to say, five years and she already had an apprentice, truth be told Dante had spent twenty years AS an apprentice, with another thirty or so in private isolated practice, and had taken an apprentice for the first time only two years ago.... of course he didnt expect Sienna to know this but it was remarkable feat. She was surely a prodigy but even five years with only about three active was a mere blink compared to the the fifty or so dante had spent in the forge, and it suddenly made him feel much older than his twenty three year old frame showed.
"lead the way please"

Sienna moved over to the sealed "employees only" door and held her hand on the door for a second
I'm going to have to ask you to place your hand here. It'll recognize you as "employee" after that and you can come and go at will.
Pulling off her hand a visible handprint mark that glowed an odd blue color could be seen on the door.

Dante stepped forward and did as he was told he was familiar with similar machines and had no real concerns over their use.

The blue glow brightened for half a second and then the door slid open revealing another rather nondescript hallway (See floorplan)
Stepping through Sienna stepped into the forge room.
Three (nearly) identical workstations complete with access to the furnace, quenching materials, hammers, anvils and the like stood in this room. Nearly identical in that one was kinda sorta missing an anvil.
None of these stations are taken yet, you can pick any one if you'd like to.

"chocolate outside, soft caramel center..." Dante commented jokingly to himself as he stepped through the security door. He followed her into the forge room and took a small hammer from the wall and walked over to the first anvil to his right.
"you dont mind do you?" he asked before striking the anvil lightly and listening to the harmonics. It was a minor detail but the high tinny 'ping' let off by the anvil turned him off for some reason. walking briskly to the other anvil he struck it in the same manner, and spot and listened carefully as it let out a more baritone 'pong'. "if you dont mind..." he said as he walked back over to put the hammer away. "Id prefer the far corner"

Hogosha No Juunikyuu *blinku blinku*Both the neko and the Senshi watched Mere very carefully before Juuni grinned and pointed at herself with a smile. " That's cause Juunish ish a star!" she proclaimed happily, rocking to and fro on the balls of her feet before her ears flickered at the mild commotion outside and she turned, jumping in slight fright to find John and Amber stood almost directly behind her as she squeezed Mere's hand subconsiously. There was something different about her Oniisama, something that scared her a bit... eek ... sweatdrop Tomorrow looked down at the man and the little girl for a second, closing his azure eyes as he reached up to tap a small button on the rim of his sunglasses, a tiny prong at the end of each frame-length extracting itself from the skin above his ear within his hair before he pulled the sunglasses off... And crouched down, smiling warmly to Juuni as he opened his arms wide for a hug. "Did you miss me, short stuff?" John asked with a familiar grin, ignoring Mere's words for now. The man knew he wouldn't attack somebody unless they provoked him. His methods, though extreme, were fair in a strange kinda way.

I mentioned earlier that we're not completely stocked up on everything right now but we do have enough materials to get started.

Dante stepped back towards the far corner and pointed to another doorway.
"And what is this way?" Dante questioned curiously walking towards it and peekign around the corner. "or is that off limits..."

Sienna motioned at the stairwell
Upstairs leads to the second floor and the living quarters. Downstairs is the workshop but it's not even close to complete right now. You can go take a look if you want though. I have to go out front again to supervise Travis' loading though.

((Account change!))
Dante nodded but declined and decided hed begin organizing his little corner of the forge into an arrangement he was more familiar with. Starting with the hammers he began laying them out at the small work table in the order of most use, and general mass.

Juuni blinked up at Tomorrow, watching him carefully, her tail swishing behind her as he crouched down before her smiling, releasing Mere's hand from her grasp and toddling into his waiting arms for a hug.
"'Niisama~!"
She snuggled into the large man's chest, breathing in his scent with a purr.

"Uh oh, she's gonna be mad. Geez, I never knew having money could make you so indecisive."
Reiko panted as he bolted down the street with his new white button up shirt and black tie flying everwhere because they were hastily put on. In his hand he was carrying a large sack. Interestingly enough he managed not to bump into anyone. They just became frightened and bumped into other people.
"Sorry!"
He stopped at the vehicle place where he saw Rose sitting on a bike with a salesman nearby. Convenience.
"That the one you want?"
"Yeah, why are you dressed like--"
"Okay let's go."
Reiko tossed the sack at the guy, who apparently couldn't think fast enough so he was knocked to the ground. Rolls of money came spilling out of the sack.
"Reiko what the..."
"Let's goooo."
Rose looked at the man who motioned to his jacket pocket where the keys were. She took them and started up the bike. Reiko hopped on and clung to her. She sped out of the lot and down the street.
"So, where we headed?"

Amber stood just behind Tomm, watching the reunion between the neko and Tribal as her gaze fell on Mere. Her arms folded over her stomach protectively as she snuffled the air surrounding him before giving a snort and shaking the dizzy feeling from her head.
"Well then..."
