Maker intro

[14:56:19] <Maker> "alright... so like... working with acrilics is all... about patience and stuff.... like.... ill just place a bowl of fruit and... you can like... paint it, if you want... or you could paint... something else. dont bite more than you can like... chew"
[14:56:48] — Maker adresses the class and picks a few colors from the basic palette for the class
[14:57:13] <Maker> "so.... its all... in the shape of... -RIIIIIIING-"
[14:57:18] <Maker> oh
[14:57:22] <Maker> ...
[14:58:08] <Maker> so...those that want to... ummm... like leave, are free to do so... the rest, can like... stay as long as you... want or something. just... keep the place clean ok?"
[14:59:07] — Maker picks up his stuff and puts them in a cloth backpack, and then calmly, but clumsily, leaves the classroom
[15:00:34] — Maker heads out from the school, making sure to stop by the teachers lounge and writting that classes were done for the day, grabbing a cup of coffee and checking what he had to do the next day
[15:00:52] <Maker> "well... guess its... still on... like, acrilics"
[15:00:58] <Maker> "al... alright"
[15:02:28] — Maker heads out into the parking lot and funbles with his keys to get into a car that is atleast a decade old
[15:04:18] — Maker turns on the radio and heads back into his apartment, once again fumbling with his keys after 10 minutes going up some stairs
[15:05:07] — Maker is greeted by a small bowling ball sized construct. that tugs on the cloth of his pants
[15:05:17] <Maker> "oh. hey little buddy... how was your day?"
[15:05:25] <Maker> -no response-
[15:05:56] <Maker> "great, you made me dinner again didn't you? heh. typical of you"
[15:06:56] — Maker picks up the little construct and heads into the kitchen, by which he means walking just a few steps into the apartment
[15:08:32] <Maker> "so.... like... lets see here..."
[15:09:13] — Maker checks on the counter
[15:09:13] <Maker> ...
[15:09:34] * Maker looks at the little buddy construct
[15:10:09] — Maker scratches his head and picks up a slice
[15:10:19] <Maker> how.... did you even make this
[15:10:37] <Strategist14> Construct jiggles in pride
[15:10:46] <Maker> we didn't even have cheese. how did you make pizza you little guy?!
[15:12:02] — Maker sets down the construct on the counter and leans against it while picking up a landline phone
[15:12:54] <Maker> alright..... number... number...
[15:13:43] — Maker checks a stray piece of paper under the phone
[15:13:49] <Maker> "oh right..."
[15:14:07] <Maker> -beep beep boop beep beep boop boop beep-
[15:14:39] — Maker waits
[15:15:03] <Icon> "Hey hey, what's shakin'?"
[15:15:10] — Icon answers in a woman's voice
[15:15:35] <Maker> "uhhhhhhh... so... about the... crown?"
[15:15:42] <Maker> "did... you like... get around for it?"
[15:17:37] <Icon> "I can if you want."
[15:17:46] <Icon> "Important question, though."
[15:17:46] <Maker> "thanks"
[15:17:58] <Maker> "...oh?"
[15:18:13] <Icon> "Do you wanna see it for what it is, or for how it looks to everyone else?"
[15:18:39] <Maker> "oh... i guess like... you could make it a crow... for everyone?"
[15:18:51] <Icon> "Including you?"
[15:19:36] <Maker> "yeah. i guess.... so i could like... see how it looks?"
[15:20:23] <Icon> "Dealio.  We gonna meet up for this so you can keep an eye on the changes, or wanna do it from where we are?"
[15:21:19] <Maker> "so.... yeah. we could... like... meet up.... if that's... ok"
[15:21:53] <Icon> "Fine by me, man.  Your place?"
[15:22:21] <Maker> "uh.... sure i guess"
[15:22:41] <Icon> "Rockin', I'll be by in ten."
[15:23:26] <Maker> "see ya"

[15:23:37] <Icon> === TEN MINUTES PASS ===

[15:24:13] — Maker is now working on a clay figure. a head the size of a microwave being carefully crafted
[15:24:24] — Icon knocks on Maker's door
[15:24:59] — Maker stands up and takes off the latex gloves
[15:25:22] — Maker goes near the door and asks "who..... who is it?"
[15:25:43] — Icon answers in a gruff male voice
[15:25:47] <Icon> "Tooth fairy."
[15:26:28] — Maker opens the door
[15:27:00] <Icon> A rugged man pushes past you and into your apartment
[15:27:20] <Maker> "..."
[15:27:23] <Icon> "The piece of scrap down there is your car, yeah?"
[15:27:33] <Icon> "I can make it look better, ya know."
[15:27:50] <Maker> "...yeah... i'd.... prefer not"
[15:28:02] <Maker> "gotta keep... like... a low profile you know?"
[15:28:10] <Icon> "Hey man, you do you."
[15:28:31] <Maker> "i... kind of do have money for.... something better so.... yeah"
[15:28:42] <Maker> "oh.... so.... pizza? its still warm"
[15:28:59] — Icon grins like a child on Christmas
[15:29:12] <Icon> "This is why you're my favourite client, dude."
[15:30:08] — Maker sheepisly smiles
[15:30:25] <Maker> "its... in the kitchen, make.... yourself at home"
[15:30:40] <Icon> "Sweet, thanks."
[15:30:55] <Icon> "Let's see this helmet first though."
[15:31:26] <Maker> "oh.... right"
[15:32:32] — Maker heads into his bedroom and grabs a sports helmet. (like those for football)
[15:32:41] <Maker> "so.... here"
[15:33:27] — Maker hands icon the helmet
[15:33:43] <Icon> "Simple enough.  Just remember, I can do invisible but I can't do intangible.  So even if the crown doesn't show it, this is still the gear you're wearing.  Capische?"
[15:33:56] <Maker> "got it"
[15:34:30] <Icon> "Wicked.  I'm gunna cycle through some designs, stop me when you see something you like."
[15:34:59] — Icon transforms the helmet into a golden crown, then gradually starts reworking dimensions and style
[15:35:10] <Maker> "maybe.... silver?"
[15:36:34] <Icon> "You got it."
[15:36:47] — Icon makes the crown silver, but continues changing the shape
[15:36:48] <Maker> "thanks"
[15:37:00] <Maker> "i.... like that one."
[15:37:08] <Icon> "You betcha."
[15:37:26] — Icon tosses the crown into the air, then catches it and hands it to Maker
[15:37:54] — Maker grabs the crown
[15:38:06] <Maker> "....thanks icon"
[15:38:22] <Maker> "how.... much is it?"
[15:39:06] <Icon> "Like I said, you're cool.  Some pizza and..."
[15:39:12] — Icon adopts a sly grin
[15:39:19] <Icon> "One of your golems?"
[15:39:44] <Maker> "oh....
[15:39:49] <Maker> "i could like.... make you one?"
[15:40:01] <Maker> "something... fancy? no?"
[15:40:20] <Icon> "Totally works, yeah.  Just something to follow me around on the street."
[15:40:34] <Icon> "Maybe carry supplies?"
[15:40:56] <Maker> "how... big?"
[15:41:30] <Icon> "I'll make it look like a small dog, so 'bout that size."
[15:41:45] <Maker> "alright... sit... down. i could make it now"
[15:42:18] <Icon> "Epic, yeah.  Pizza in the kitchen, you said?"
[15:42:28] — Maker heads back into the drying clay head and cracks his knuckles
[15:42:31] <Maker> "yeah"
[15:42:44] <Maker> "alright.... lets see here"
[15:43:06] — Icon eats pizza and watches
[15:44:05] — Maker digs his fingers into the clay and takes out a big lump that's given a round shape in a rather quick motion. proceeds to make a big cilindrical shape and 4 smaller cilinders
[15:44:59] — Maker keeps taking out clay and giving more shape to the now-taking-shape sculpture.
[15:46:12] — Maker takes a breath and extends a hand towards the sculpture.
[15:46:56] <Maker> "anything in.... particular? before i..."
[15:47:14] <Icon> "Looks good to me, bro."
[15:48:13] <Maker> "alright"
[15:48:21] — Maker does the thing"
[15:49:50] <Icon> "Wicked."
[15:50:08] <Icon> "How long will it last?"
[15:50:50] — Maker kneels near the figure and puts his hands into the sphere that makes for its head
[15:50:54] <Maker> "forever
[15:51:23] <Maker> "or.... as long as you take care of this... little guy"
[15:51:54] <Icon> "Does clay eat stuff?"
[15:51:59] — Maker whispers into the figure "Icon is going to be your caretaker.... you shall be safe with.... him..."
[15:52:14] <Icon> "Him, dude."
[15:52:32] <Maker> "clay doesn't.... you could easily model.... it.... more"
[15:52:37] <Icon> "I can hear better than you think."
[15:53:21] <Maker> "no offense icon.... i wasn't... mentioning... that... was... unsure if.... i could... tell him... her, since you'll be like.... taking it out... for work"
[15:53:38] <Maker> "sorry"
[15:54:06] <Icon> "Dude, I can just set it so it doesn't see the body I'm wearing at the time."
[15:54:29] <Maker> "oh.... alright"
[15:54:30] <Icon> "Or have one persistent one only for it to follow."
[15:55:11] — Maker nods
[15:55:42] <Icon> "So again.  How do I take care of a statue?"
[15:56:19] <Maker> "keep it around.... it should... follow your orders, you could... make it bigger.... with more clay. dont make it too big"
[15:56:29] <Maker> "keep it company"
[15:56:56] <Icon> "You betcha.  Anything else I should know?"
[15:57:49] <Maker> "its still wet clay"
[15:59:10] <Icon> "Makes sense."
[15:59:17] <Maker> so....  i  have some gloves in that... box over there
[15:59:51] — Icon looks around, then a blinking red exclamation point appears over the box
[16:00:17] — Icon opens the box, banishing the symbol
[16:00:20] — Maker heads back into the kitchen to wash his hands
[16:01:21] <Maker> "what else can you do with... your power?"
[16:01:24] <Icon> "Sweet.  That everything?  We good?"
[16:01:58] <Icon> "Anything visual, audio, or, uh... smells."
[16:02:50] <Maker> "we.. good... also... that's a pretty nice range of.... uses"
[16:03:19] <Icon> "You know it.  Key certain triggers to different reactions, too."
[16:03:35] <Maker> "i can also do.... this... well... i did it before. just gotta.... order it now"
[16:03:52] — Maker points to the microwave door and sheepishly smiles as it opens
[16:04:05] — Icon laughs
[16:04:14] <Icon> "Dude.  That's just..."
[16:04:17] <Icon> "Dude."
[16:05:03] — Maker makes the microwave door close
[16:05:12] <Maker> "it also works with locks"
[16:05:29] — Maker smiles with a BIT of more confidence
[16:05:50] <Icon> "That's so stupid awesome I don't even know anymore."
[16:06:03] <Maker> "...thanks!"
[16:06:30] <Icon> "Best I can do is make it look like they opened and convince someone to walk into a closed door."
[16:06:45] <Maker> "that sounds awesome"
[16:07:52] <Icon> "Great at parties, man.  'Specially when only the one person sees it open, and they're so drunk nobody else even questions it.
[16:07:54] <Icon> "
[16:08:06] <Maker> "heh"
[16:08:33] <Maker> "so... thanks again for the crown, icon"
[16:08:46] <Icon> "Yeah, thanks for the dog."
[16:09:06] <Icon> "But seriously, let me at least make the car less hideous."
[16:09:16] <Icon> "That thing is an eyesore."
[16:09:19] <Maker> "sigh..... alright"
[16:09:22] <Maker> "go ahead"
[16:09:39] <Icon> "Aww yeah!"
[16:10:09] <Icon> "Now, I really should be heading back.  Again, awesome doing business with you."
[16:10:34] <Maker> "same same. have.... a nice... evening"
[16:11:15] <Icon> "You too dude.  Gimme a call whenever.  On the run, trying to find someone, wanna mess with some drunks, anything."
[16:11:36] <Maker> "that... sounds nice"
[16:11:43] <Maker> "ill do so :)"
[16:11:56] <Icon> "Rad.  Talk to ya later, then."
[16:12:06] — Icon exits
[16:12:37] — Maker watches as icon leaves with the clay construct

[16:13:45] <Maker> ==A FEW MINUTES PASS==

[16:14:40] — Maker is now browsing the internet and ordering more clay, setting stuff up for tomorrow's class and feeling tempted to call icon one day
