[Oh, would you look at that. He was empty, then he wasn't. That was beautiful, really... It was something she needed to learn, if she ever wanted hold up her end of the promise. She needed to...

Absently she drifts a "step" forward, once more seemingly transfixed by him rather that the ticking of his work.]

That would be perfect. September 2nd, right in time. Thank you, Mr. Watchmaker. I knew I wouldn't be a mistake to leave it to you.
marcato: (It's sad that a soul won't believe them)

[He feels a surge of pride at that compliment. I knew it wouldn't be a mistake to leave it to you. Because he doesn't make mistakes. Because he's fastidious and hard-working.

Because he's perfect.]

You're very welcome, Rachel. I'm glad to help.

[A split second pause.]

Before you leave, will you tell me about your sewing practice? Is it going well?
sweartoyou: (just a cute normal girl)

[Being honest, she's pretty sure she could start to leave and still be done with the conversation before she actually got out of the shop, but she isn't aching to book it out of there when someone is actually showing an interest. Well, someone that wasn't Danny. He didn't count.]

Mhm. I'm able to sew as well as I did before, if I work a little harder, and take breaks now and then... It's worth it. I've been able to fix all sorts of things.
marcato: (no more questions)

You don't like to leave things incomplete. Is that right?

[He says the words carefully, watching for her reaction. He keeps his hands folded together.]

That's why you fix things.
sweartoyou: (that's worth considering)

[The lack of reaction may be interesting -- this sort of mindset...it's only natural, isn't it? Ray had been completely honest when she'd suggested his increased obsessiveness over his watches was normal.]

Incomplete...or incorrect. If I can make something [mine. mine, mine, mine] better than it was...I like to fix what I can.
marcato: (the shutters close when he's around)

[personal profile] marcato 2018-09-17 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm the same way. But I don't need to tell you that.

[He smiles again, casting a glance behind him at the back room.]

I should be going. I've got a lot of work to do on your doctor's watch.
sweartoyou: (live fast)

[personal profile] sweartoyou 2018-09-17 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her head bobs in a gentle nod and she starts the arduous process of backtracking out of the shop. It was her that should be going, after all. Mr. Watchmaker was going to be here, all busy and stuff. Lucky.

Oh wait, she's actually forgetting something important, isn't she...]

-- ah. Um. Do you have an estimated cost...? I know customs are different...
