Rio buckles slightly at the impact but resumes his posture. “Thanks.”
"I usually get the raw materials myself, it is a long and complex process. It took me several millenia just to gather the parts so I could them for a few centuries."
They help them back to their posture "Sorry 'bout that, I ain't mean ta hurt ya."
“You make every component from scratch?? Impressive dedication…”
“Oh I’m fine. I don’t have many bones anyway.”
"When you have forever to practice the craft, you get quite good at it. Count Dracula, nice to meet you." He holds out a pale hand.
"What are ya workin' on there? If ya don't mind my askin'."

"Yeah." He says softly. "That song reminds me of my childhood. Most people stop wanting to play with me when I miss a note. Sometimes I try to play it off as part of the song, but it's a hard deception to pull off."
He looks to the ground for a moment, before taking a deep breath "Whoever tells you something like that is cruel. My childhood... wasn't much of anything worth remembering... though I would never hope to forget it. I'm sorry you've had to deal with that."
"Heh. Thank ya. I'd rather not go into my sob story, since like half of all adventurers were urchins too... or something like that. My past isn't what matters. It's a stick that drives me toward the carrot, if you get the metaphor. I had nothing before, so I promised myself I would have everything. A mansion up in the City of Splendor. Bread with jam on it whenever I wanted it. I promised myself I would be fat like the rich men and die from a heart attack like the rich men. But I'm still not there yet. I got a boat though, and that's a step in the right direction."
"Hmmm..." He smirks, rubbing his chin. "Tempting offer, but I'll save it for another time. A difficult decision, since I'm the '(gp) around and find out' type of guy, but with my soul on the line I think I should get to know you a bit better." He smacks his lips. "Did I taste... raw eel?"
“Boiled, actually. Though it doesn’t make much of a difference, just kills unwanted bacteria.”
"A good idea. Hey, do you like chocolate? I got some of the good stuff recently."
"Yeah." He says softly. "That song reminds me of my childhood. Most people stop wanting to play with me when I miss a note. Sometimes I try to play it off as part of the song, but it's a hard deception to pull off."

He listens to them, smiling all the way "Ah riches and glory, never really was interested in those too much. Though I did spend time as a pirate, that was more about the adventures than what we got at the end of them. The ship is actually where I learned to cook, from the legendary chef Barbeau. Those are some good goals, and that progress sounds good too, no point in sob stories when life is good, and life is good right now."

He shakes it. “Nothing lasts forever.”
“Just a little maintenance. Carcasses are so messy and this blade is probably worth more than the average house here. At least, in terms of its power…”

"Maybe, but until then, I have nothing but time on my hands."
She chuckles "Last I check the average house 'round here ain't that powerful, but maybe I'm wrong. Ya just got ta be smart 'bout it, it ain't that messy when ya know what ta do." Riotan can see some new scars forming on her arms, part of her dress ripped from something.
