[Will opens the video with his usual friendly smile, his guitar in his lap and his arms draped and dangling lazily over the side of it as he taps out an idle rhythm with his fingers.]

So I have a few things I was thinking about and was hoping people might be able to help me with some of them.

The first thing I was thinking of is if anyone else here plays any instruments? Or even sings? [Will gives a playful, single strum of his guitar with a grin.] I know at least one person here besides me does. [He's looking at you, Rose.] I was just thinking about how all my siblings had at least some talent with musical instruments and we would often lead the campfire singalongs back at the camp where I live or we would just mess around and jam in the Apollo cabin. I'm starting to really miss it so I thought it might be fun if people wanted to get together and just jam together some times.

The other thing was if anyone's any good at working with metal? I have a few things I'd like to build but I definitely don't have any talent for it.

hey, that's cool. i'd love to hear you play some time or even play together if you'd be comfortable with that.

i don't know too much about metal so i don't know if this would actually work but i was hoping to take the metal pieces of a guitar and melt them down into a ring, if that's possible? i'd need the ring in a little over a month.

I am able to make jewelry from any type of gemstone and metal so it should not be a problem. Do you know what kind of metal the pieces are made of?

i'm honestly not sure. musical instruments aren't my strong point. i can tell when it's out of tune but as for what it's made out of, not a clue.

If it is only a small amount it shouldn't matter. I have my blacksmithing and armorsmithing tools on hand as well should it prove more durable. It would only take a few hours at most to craft.

awesome. is there any kind of payment you want?

i'd also really appreciate keeping it a secret too. i want it to be a surprise for someone.

Then it shall remain a surprise. Anima and Aymeric will know that I am crafting a ring, yet it is such a common occurrence that they won't think anything of it.

okay. i don't think i know aymeric so if you wanted to mention it's a surprise gift for someone to make sure they don't say anything about it either, that'd be fine with me.

He is tall and handsome, and looks like an elf from a fantasy film. I imagine you will run into him at some point.

Is there a design you would like for the ring? I am most practiced with simple bands with gemstones, but have made ones for eternal bonding ceremonies on occasion as well.

i'll keep a look out for someone with that description and say hi if i ever come across him.

just a simple band will be fine, i think. the person i want to give it to isn't really much for fancy things.

[Seeing the words 'eternal bonding ceremonies' makes his cheeks flush a little, gosh.]

I am able to craft it whenever you're able to get the materials to me. If it's simple it shouldn't take more than half a bell to complete.

awesome. i'll bring them by later today, if that works?

let me know what i owe you.

That's acceptable.

Perhaps an owed favour in the future of equivalent value?

works for me. cash in whenever you want.
