C. Phipps looked up to the man what looked to be a smile under his bandages. "Well I can guarantee that I am not all to normal myself." He held out his hand "C. Phipps Butterwick nice to meet you."

Max takes Phipps' open hand and shakes it heartily. "Arnbyrd. Maxwell Arnbyrd. Pleased to make your aquaintence, friend!"

C. Phipps let out a laugh as they shook hands. "As I to you sir!" He then let go of Max's hand and took off his hat. "Right then. Now would you be able to help a fellow like me out building an airship?"

Evani walked down the street in her nice clothes; A sweater, and long skirt with a hat-the only pair she owned. She was coming home from church when she caught sight of an inventor's shop on a corner. She lingered outside for a moment, peeking in the window.

Max rummaged through the counter. "Why, of course, good sir! In fact, we've just received shipment of the most interesting material for making aircraft with, if I do say so myself," he replies. He brings out a copper-like chunk of metal, almost seeming to have a natural reflective texture.

Evani could see two men chatting in the corner of the shop, one of which pulled out a familiar looking metal. She gasped and ran into the shop on an impulse. "Is that what I think it is??" She asked in an incredulous amazement, barely containing her excitement.

Max looks up in surprise, usually one to be spooked at sudden occurances. "Oh! Well, miss, if you're suggesting that this is Unobtainium, then you'd be correct," he replies to Evani. He retreives a Bunsen burner from under the counter. "As you might know, miss," he explains, placing the metal on it and turning it on, "This particularly new alloy repels itself away from sources of energy, like heat, like magnets." as he says so, the metal unsteadily lifts itself away from the burner, appearing to float mid-air.

Evani's eyes grew wide. Of course she had heard of this fantastic new alloy, but was unable to afford any herself. She clapped her hands together. "Amazing!" She said. "I wish I could afford to buy it.. Unfortunately, I'm stuck with my fathers old rusty junk metal." She grouched. "I'm never going to get anything off the ground with what I have to work with." She mumbled, crossing her arms.

Smiling C. Phipps looked at the two then chuckled a little. "Well I am hiring this fellow here to build me an airship. I am also hoping he will pilot said airship and join me on my adventure. What say you would you like to join?" C. Phipps looked between the two as he waited for a reply from them the smile hidden under the bandages but visible in his voice and eyes.

"Of course!!" Evani shouted, barely containing her excitement. "Oh.. wait.." She added, remebering her mother. "I'm afraid I've promised my mother I would not leave her..."

He held on to the rim of his hat and rotated in his hands. He then shrugged his shoulders still smiling. "The more the merrier." C. Phipps then turned to Max. "That is as long as its okay with you?"

Evani turned to the other man, hope flickering in her eyes, waiting for his response. If he said yes, her dreams could well be within reach after all.

Maxwell chuckles. "I don't see why not. I've been due out of this town for a long time, anyways. I don't tend to stay in one place for long."

Evani jumped up in excitement and squeezed Max in a hug. Then she realized what she was doing and jumped back again. "Sorry." She said sheepishly. "I tend to get a tad over-excited about these things.."

He let out a laugh and looked back to the gal. "Well it's settled she can come along." This time C. Phipps looked around for a hat and coat rack. Spying one in the corner he walked to it and placed his hat on it. He then took off his jacket and sat it on a separate hook. C. Phipps rolled up his sleeves showing more of the scaring on his left arm. He then walked back to the counter and looked towards Maxwell. "So what can I do to help?"
