[Another vigilante leader...] Riku spun around on his stool, ignoring the current project he was on. he leaned back on the table, his elbows supporting him. [It's a good opportunity to get more business I just hope-] Riku scowled, growling at the memory of the las vigilante leader he met. The guy was a total brute and annoying as hell. The entire meeting he made fun of him for looking like a child and showed him 0 respect while he was trying to talk business. Eventually he threw him out rather forcefully and refused to make anything for the asshole. "They better not be another idiot."
As Riku sighed a rap at the door caught his ears and he realized he hadn't even noticed what time it was. He quickly hopped down from the stool, completely ready for the other to be surprised about his looks but hoping that after he clarified his age that they could get down to business like two adults. Well...that was if the other was even an adult. However he did work with a teen before he had gotten more respect from them than anyone else he ever worked for.
As Riku got to the door he braced himself for the encounter. He quickly undid the 3 solid locks on the door and then opened it to see a taller guy with a hood on. With a nod Riku stepped back and motioned the guy in as he held the door open for the him. Once the guy entered Riku closed the door and locked just one of its locks. He of course was going to keep the door locked for safety reasons but he learned that using only one of the locks made his customers at least not feel like they were being locked in.
"I have signal scramblers that work just inside the shop." Riku turned to look at the other, giving a small smile to him. "It's 100% safe to talk freely in here so-" He walked up to the guy holding his hand out for the other for a handshake. A typical routine he did when he met customers that he had practiced several times, just as he did the greeting itself. "I'm Riku although if I met you in disguise I just go by Z. Despite my appearance i'm pretty capable also-" He paused, giving a kinda tired smile at remembering how many times he's gone through the whole 'i'm not a child' thing. "I'm 26 and not a kid." Now that his normal vaguely practiced routine was over, he was on his own as far as actually being good at conversation.

[/i]. Thank god he knew better. Instead, he just echoed, "Z." He nodded. "Right, then...Riku. Call me Kris." Also....twenty six? Damn, the kid wait whoops not a kid remember guy looked good for twenty-six. you age well, he wanted to say, but nope nope nope, that was hella unprofessional. And Kris was here on professional business. He glanced at the locked door, feeling simultaneously reassured and wary, then looked around for somewhere to sit. "Then, let's get started. What's your specialty?"[/ul]

Riku was thankful when the guy seemed reasonably respective of Riku's appearance. It was obvious by his expression that he was taken back a bit by the information but Riku appreciated there not being a long drawn out exclamation about it. When the man started to glance around for a place to sit, he suddenly felt awkward for not having made his customer comfortable yet.
"Ah- this way." Riku reached out and gave the man's sleeve a small tug in the direction he was going and then released it to walk ahead of him. Towards the back of the shop there was a sitting area with a few chairs. it was kinda a makeshift area where he prepared food when he had to stay long hours in the shop. It just had a mini icebox in the corner and a microwave on the counter by it. The table was mostly clean besides a few tools and parts that Riku completely forgot to put away before his guest came and in the center of the table was a pizza box which house a normal pepperoni pizza. The pizza had arrived a few minutes before his customer so it was still hot.
"uh, sorry for the mess." Riku awkwardly shifted, trying to move the tools out of the way and then motioned for the guy to sit. "Anyway, My specialty is weapon development. I have some examples of my work if you'd like to see but honestly if you have an idea I can make it happen. I'm a skilled programmer as well." Riku smiled, more than a little proud of his work. He plopped down in one of the chair, resting his elbow on the table while leaning his head on his hand. "Pizza by the way." He pointed at the box which had some plates by it. "I ordered it thinking it might make things seem more casual." Riku furrowed his brows and shrugged a little. This was one of his many attempts at making a meeting the least awkward it could be conversation wise. Everyone loved a good pizza party right?

Riku gave a big grin, ecstatic that the other wanted to see examples. It was a bad quality of his but he loved to show off a bit.~ With a hop off his chair he thought a moment, placing his hands on his hips. "Hm...How about my personal weapon?~" He chimed and walked over to the workbench he was at earlier to fetch his swords. He had tuned them up earlier today and sharpened them so they were looking especially nice considering most of the wear and tear had been buffed away. Once both were in hand he walked back over to the man, a good few feet away. "These are entirely my design." He stated, holding them out next together. After showing that they were identical he sat one down on the table and balanced the other on his index finger right where the blades met the hilt. "They're perfectly balanced which was a challenge because the blade is made from metallic glass which is stronger than steel and the hilt is a mixture or rubber and plastic steel, an extremely durable material" Pausing, Riku tossed the sword up with his finger and caught it by the hilt to swiftly hold it outward away from Kris. "I've never been able to break them despite excessive use although just like any sword they need to be sharpened. What makes them interesting?" Riku paused to look at Kris with a slight smirk, his thumb pressing a small button in on the hilt. Electricity burst the the blade, bouncing out and dancing over the it while making a humming buzzing sound. "The blades act like tasers, each sword has enough juice for 2 burst that last 30 seconds. It's strong enough to stun someone with just the slightest contact and if you manage to extend the contact time your opponent would pass out." With his finishing words, Riku ended the display and shut the power to the sword down. He lowered it to his side, his other hand going to his hip. "I also made the communication scrambler that i mentioned earlier. As you can see i'm a little obsessed with the details of my projects and normally use more interesting and functional material. This can make things pretty pricey however if a customer requests, I can use cheaper material." Riku walked over to the guy, holding the sword out to him to offer a more thorough look. "Careful, the blade's warm from the electricity. Wanna see anything else?"
{if you'd like to see the sword they're here}
