Agh, I thought these people learnt after I gave that guy perma-rocket feet, but nooooo, they never do. The light tinkling of bells slowly appears, oh great, my favourite client. 'Dr, dr! I have a proposition!' Not again- meet Theodoreus Sharkass, this idiot changed his name after he fell into my shark tank, I thought I saved him that day, but apparently some people can't just be grateful, 'What is it this time, you wanna be half robot or something?'
Instantly regretting my words I can hear the cogs literally turning in his head, another failed test I will choose to ignore. "Nope! I want cool feet, my main man Locky has rocket feet and I want something too!"
OH FOR GOODNESS SAKES
Regaining my composure I coach myself into giving an appropriate response 'You already have a shark tail, a gearhat to replace your hair, rat ears, stone teeth, and fairy wings'
"Yeah, and nothing on these" He is currently wildly jesturing to his lower half with his somehow unmodified hands and shark tail, seems I'm getting paid today.
'Sure, that'll be 950 gold peices, 6 large gems, 8000 silver peices, and 9 copper coins'
The 'man' standing in front of me has somehow aquired a large horde of treasure, so I bet he'll say something lik- "You've got a deal docco!" I have officially given up around the 2nd time, as they say, it's no use arguing with an idiot.
Sharkass throws a giant treasure chest onto my floor, I open it and find much more than I charged, typical, he doesn't even count his coin, not giving into my greed immediately, I use a quick scanning spell, definitely from a dragon, definitely stolen, preparing the table I lay him down and throw powder, given as payment from my last not-from-earth customer, onto him, and start sawing. You'd think I'd have a better method, but nope, still the same old, somewhat sterile saw, hopefully he doesn't mind me keeping his feet for the next not so humanoid, I gather a pair of roller skates from a child who wanted much longer rainbow hair and start the real work. Cutting, zapping, sawing, sticking, finally, something usable, I dash towards my spare parts cupboard and gather my 1st keepsake, an old android model, the AI had moved to a merm body so it's fine, Sawing off the feet was harder this time, the old circuits splurting out what seems to be blood. My saw is now in need of a major upgrade, after hacking away the rest I rush back to the table and build on the shoes, Done!
The shoes are on and the job is done, wacking the dazed semi-human I hose off the powder, "Eh, Eyyyy great work!" Not even stopping to say goodbye he skates off out of my shop, leaving me with my pay, a couple missing braincells, and some new parts.
