[ Glancing at his phone in surprise. He didn't think they would actually try and work the piano out. In spite of the failed product at the end, the fact that they even attempted warms his heart. ]
Thank you for reaching out to me about this, Rose. I appreciate all the effort expended on trying to make it work. It is all right if it was unsuccessful. I know it was a difficult ask, considering the limited parts available on this ship. Fortunately, Breezy has agreed to lend me his piano for the time being.
May I still have the prototype? I would like to keep it enshrined in my room.
Of course, sir, it will be dropped off in front of your cabin within 5 minutes. It's heavy, so take care when you pick it up.
[And it is, with a knock to signal its arrival, though Rose or whoever will be gone pretty much immediately after the drop-off. The mini-not-piano has several !!WARNING!! stickers pasted all over it that all insist the thing is NOT to be cracked open even in case of malfunction and should be disposed of by dropping it off at x or x Forge-run facilities, NOT by putting it out with the trash. It is indeed rather heavy for its size. It does, however, look nice. Fancy, even. Enjoy.]
[ He blinks as he glances around, having expected Rose to at least stick around and say hello. He does bring the mini-not-piano inside and sets it up as a display piece, smiling faintly at the earnest attempt before sending another text: ]
Thank you for the delivery and once more for the effort. Even if you did not make it fully functional, I would still like to repay you sometime. What would Forge like in terms of baked goods?
