un: Tsurumaru

( Arms crossed and hands tucked into his sleeve, Tsurumaru smiles casually as he speaks. )

I'm looking for someone with experience repairing swords. 

( Yes, it's important to get right to the point. No one has time for long winded introductions and explanations! But he supposes an explanation is still needed here so he sighs, running a hand through his hair, pushing back his bangs and scowling just a little, )

I visited a local smith and they were too rough. It felt more like a punishment than care… ( Really! It makes him shudder just thinking about it and he touches a thin scratch on his cheek, ) Eugh. My face still hurts…

( If the smith was going to handle his true form like that, they might as well have just slapped this human body across the face. )

It's a delicate blade and this is a… ( Hm, he doesn't want to have to explain everything right from the get go so he tries to find the right word, ) personal request.

It's easier if you look at what you're doing. ( Instead of just knocking hands out of the way, Marianne! But if only Tsurumaru knew how messy she really was.... ) You should tidy up. If you leave it alone, it will only get bigger.

( It's just general advice! He hates messes and prefers for things to be clean and organized. OH, but he didn't come her eto scold her so he sighs and touches his cheek, )

Thank you, Marianne.

( And he'll leave her alone! He has a sword to fix. )
