Guess what, ducks, it's one more person to ask you questions.


Riddle me this: If you leave behind everything you know and let go of everything you've ever worked for, how do you start over?

Well, I can see it's really the only option for anyone who wants to live.

Even better, you give people replacement legs to stand on if they can't.

It is. It may not be the best feeling at first, but afterward, knowing you've taken that step...you'll realize you needed to do that.

...I try.

Oh, I know how it is. It's not like I haven't been there.

It's a good kind of work to be doing.

Really? I guess I didn't know that. There's probably a lot I don't know.

Thank you.

I'm not terribly forthcoming about my history, so not many people would know.

May I ask what made you want to learn to make automail?

[Could write the book on not forthcoming young men - don't mind the eyeroll.]

My grandmother is an automail mechanic and a surgeon. She inspired me. But there were always parts and tools around...she encouraged me to take things apart and put them back together. By the time I was eight, I was helping in her shop.
