[b]He sighs, and places his broken armor down.[/b]
"Can you help me fix this?"

The man doesn't break eye contact as he continues to hammer. Suddenly a more feminine voice walked into the room. "TYRONE! What did I say about staring at people?!" The small Asian woman walked into Tyrones shop, immediately giving her hand to Zane. "Hey there! Tina at your service!"
-
[b]He shakes her hand.[/b] "Zane, nice to meet you. I take it you see the sorry shape my armor is in?"
-
"Oh brother! It looks like you were thrown off a mountain or something!" She began to investigate the armour, looking at the dents. Tyrone soon took up her personal space as he began to investigate.
-
"Eh something like that....I tried to fix it but it's way to busted for me to fix. Think you can help me out? Gonna need this armor for the tournament that's going on."
-
"Oh yes of course, let me just see this helmet...here..." Tina looked at the helmet, then Zane, then the helmet, then Zane. "Wait...are you THE Zane?! The guy who stopped that whole moon from crashing into us?!"
-
[b]He lets out a light laugh.[/b] "Guess I am, although I would have thought people would have forgotten about that by now."
-
A voice of a lighter man comes from the other shop. "Hard to forget a world ending calamity...." He spoke with a rude yet intelligent tone. And Tina immediately looked at him with annoyance. "Teek! Be nice! He's saved the world three times over by now!" "Oh and how wonderful a place it is now..." "You know what? No karaoke for you tonight!" "Oh what will I EVER do without my simulated music box..." Tina turned her attention to Zane. "Don't mind him, he's.... Ya he's a jerk. Anyways! Tyrone! Get to work!" The man nodded as he put Zanes armour in front of him. He raised his hand, raising two fingers. "Alright, come back in two hours! It should be all cleaned up for you!"
-
"If you don't mind, I'd actually like to stay and watch you guys work. It's always interesting to see other smiths work."
-
"Oh! Well...okay! Get to it Tyrone!" Tyrone nodded as he took the armour of the press.... [spoiler]I am way too lazy to write about what they do to the armour lmao.[/spoiler]

[b]He watches the silent man work, impressed at the level of skill he has[/b]
-
After a few hours of hard work...and silence. It seems the Fire Phoenix armour had been completely repaired. Tyrone laid the plates out on the table, next to the Exo-suit. And clicked them back into place. He fined the cloak as well, making it a neat finish rather than a tattered one. He stood back, letting Zane observe the massive suit on the table now.
-
"Very impressive, good work Tyrone!" [b]He opens the armor and steps inside, moving around a bit.[/b] "It's just like new."
-
The bald man nodded in approval. He raised his hand forward soon after... Expecting payment.
-
[b]He takes out his wallet.[/b] "How much is that gonna be?"
-
Tyrone took a piece of paper, and wrote on it. He handed it to Zane. ....there were a LOT of zeros....
-
[b]He nervously chuckles.[/b] "Could I speak to Tina about this?"
-
"Well helloooooo!" Tina quickly makes her way over, like she rehearsed this. "What's up hero man?"
-
"Ah...This bill is a bit....Out of my price range so to speak. I was hoping we could work out a deal."
-
"Oh 100% absolutely! What seems to be the issue?!" She picks up the piece of paper. "Wowie! That's a lot of O's big man!"
-
"And more money that I've ever earned in my entire 35 years of life! So there must be a better way."
-
"Luckily there is!" She tore up the paper, throwing it away as she pulled out a massive steel piece with large bold inscriptions on it. ....it was the exact size of The Armours leg.... "ADVERTISEMENT!"
-
"Ah....What about a your shops logo on the chest? I could also put in a word with some old contacts of mine."
-
"Oh that would be just fabulous!" [i]"Man what an easy mark..."[/i] The last sentence was under Tina's breath as she slapped the piece of metal onto Zanes leg. "Should we get to it?"
-
[b]He picks up what she said due to his old training, and smiles as he throws an arm around her.[/b] "Hm, mind saying that a bit louder?"
-
"SHOULD WE GET TO IT!!!!!????????" Tina pronounced her last sentence much louder. And Tyrone was already getting red spray paint ready.
