Alright... I'm done. I've officially ran out of things to do. [The journal picks up the sound of someone rolling around in bed.] I don't have any new orders to make, there's a snow fort four feet tall in my backyard, and I'm sick of Hot Pockets.

I really want to go somewhere and do something, but I'm totally out of ideas. [A huge sigh.] Everything's boring.

So, help me out here. What are you guys doing to keep from going crazy?

Orders? What do you do?

[gentleidealist]

I carve stuff out of wood. I can make some metal things too, but I'm not an expert like my dad.

[whistles_the_blues]

And people will order you to carve them things? Interesting.

What kind of metal "things" can you make?

[gentleidealist]

Not order like uh, from an authority. More like commissions. People tell me what they want, and I make it for money. The money's not too important. It's just something to hone my skills, to be honest.

[Hmm.] My dad makes the best weapons around, but mine are pretty basic. I'm better with jewelry and accessories.

[whistles_the_blues]

[He just takes the word a little too literally sometimes.]

I think I'm fine for accessories. I don't think there's anything I could commission you to do to help with your boredom.

[gentleidealist]

That's all right. Thanks for trying.

What kind of equipment are you interested in? I'm probably gonna practice my smithing again.

[whistles_the_blues]

Perhaps if you could work craft any basic tools; Wrenches, hammers or screw drivers, I could always use extras for repairs.

-- Hey, I can do that!

What's your name? I can have the ghosts deliver them when I'm done.

Break

Now you have something to quell your boredom.
