[Video; Laptop]

[Another video from Killian that doesn't start with his face. This one starts with all the work he picked up in his last post spread out on a table, ready and waiting. A few pieces are wrapped but he's out of paper so.

For a week's work, it's all pretty damn fancy (and vaguely Celtic/Norse in design). Cheap materials, but fancy. His bow from before is also on the table and a set of armguards are on top of it. The bow is obviously not modern. The guards are, however.]

If you placed an order with me last week, it's done. Just tell me when you want me to deliver it or when you want to pick it up or who I should mail it to.

[He sounds much better than he did last week. He shifts the camera so he's in view.]

And...thanks to anyone who commissioned stuff. With all this and a few other sales I had more than enough to cover Mom's funeral. Which, um, was yesterday.

[Yep, still hurting from that. It takes a moment before he can speak again]

Anyway, sometime during all of this I got that bow on the table there [and here he picks it up] and I was wondering if anyone knows a place I could get arrows for it that won't ask where I got it or if anyone's had an arrow-making pulse recently or something.

No, I suppose not.

But it really is minimal effort, at best, and there are advantages to reserving profanity for situations that are particularly emotionally charged. Higher impact upon utterance, for one.

are you
implying
that i want to put effort into anything
??? actually confused here

Text

Everyone wants to put effort into something.

It's a form of self-validation, to hone and sharpen a skill.

everyone is a pretty big word
what's a word for a group that doesn't include me
that's the word you're looking for

"Something" is also a very broad category. It doesn't have to be a common or admirable pursuit.

ok that narrows it down then
im the best at being the worst
simple

It only really counts if you work toward it, but if it validates you in some way, then it is a significant achievement, relatively speaking.
