Seventh Sin - Make me strong, down you go, suffer long, down you go [Video]

[The feed opens with Zevran sitting across from the journal, various leather made wares set out before him. Gloves of various kinds, a coat or two, belts embossed and dyed, wristbands, water bottles and other wares are arranged for optimal viewing. All have a similar style to them, an artful richness to the embossing, embroidering, and dye.]

Good Evening, Luceti.

[He offers the feed a winning smile and a loose, fluid gesture to the assortmant of leather wares, a bit of a 'there you have it' in the motion.]

As I've had plenty of time on my hands the past few months and the means to do so I've made a few items too many while experimenting with different techinques of leather working and find I've a talent for it. The workmanship is solid if I do say so myself and I would be willing to do custom orders if you wished for something more lasting and complicated. If you see anything here that you like, please let me know and I will wrap and send it to you. If you want something made for a special occasion let me know where to meet with you so we may discuss the particulars. I promise I am quite discreet-

[There's a loud, somewhat unpleasant squwacks from just offcamera. Zevran sighs and mutters under his breath in Antivan, reaching behind him to lift up an ungainly lump of grey down and flailing limbs. The little raven screeches once he rolls about Zevran's palm, nipping at his fingers.]

This little uccello's name is Savio. He is not much to look at, I know, but he's a clever thing for a mass of feathers and talons. Perhaps in another month he will be more handsome, yes?

[Ouch.]

Thanks, but, uh, I've got a strict no-kill policy.

Re: [voice]

Render a man unconscious, then.

[voice]

[selfhelp]

That's a totally acceptable alternative, thanks. Although I don't think you can kill someone with a cell phone. At least, not without breaking it.

[And if he broke his cell phone here he would cry.]

Re: [voice]

You would be surprised how easy it is to kill a man with something roughly that size, and far more fragile.

[voice]

[selfhelp]

...I'll... take your word for it. But I'd rather not know.

[This conversation is already getting to be fifty shades of uncomfortable as it is.]

[voice]

[antivanleather]

Probably for the best. Heroes in your world have no need of killing, yes? Justice is served with time rather than death. I think I might prefer that to my own.

[voice]

[selfhelp]

Generally, no. I'd say nobody's perfect, but there's a lot of heroes who believe that killing someone can make you just as bad as the villains you're fighting.

To some extent, I believe that. But... I also know there's no way I could handle taking someone's life.

...Remind me to go over evasions and grapple breaks with you as well. You won't be put in a situation where you have to make that call if they cannot hold you.

[voice]

[selfhelp]

I'm down with that. I can always use more, uh. Grapple training. I guess.

[He's not even sure what that entails, but okay. The more training he gets, the better.]
