I had not originally intended to make any formal announcement regarding my workshop. However, after seeing Sophie’s recent notice advertising her own establishment, I was reminded that certain opportunities are best stated plainly rather than left to rumor. With that in mind, I am opening a limited number of workshop roles and apprenticeship positions at my facility, Contingency Plan, located at Guardiandocks.

APPRENTICES, SPECIALIZED ASSISTANTS, AND COMMISSION LIAISON SOUGHT - CONTINGENCY PLAN
Location: Guardiandocks
Proprietor: Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III
About the Workshop
Contingency Plan is a private commission workshop dedicated to precision mechanisms, fine instrumentation, custom-designed devices, restoration of delicate constructs, and experimental craftsmanship requiring exceptional technical accuracy. Work conducted here is specialized, often singular, and demands patience, discipline, and refined hands.
Open Roles
- Precision Craft Assistants
- Fine Mechanism Assemblers
- Instrument and Device Restoration Assistants
- Drafting and Measurement Assistants
- Client Liaison and Commission Coordinator
- Apprentices (limited positions)
Apprenticeship Opportunities
Candidates who possess curiosity, patience, and a genuine desire to learn advanced craftsmanship are encouraged to apply, even if formal training is limited. Applicants without prior workshop experience should present a small drafted design, schematic, or blueprint of their own creation demonstrating attention to measurement, structural logic, or mechanical imagination. Apprentices will receive direct instruction in specialized fabrication methods, tool mastery, and commission-based workshop practices.
Client Liaison Position
Applicants with strong interpersonal skills may apply to serve as Commission Coordinator, responsible for greeting clients, clarifying commission requests, maintaining orderly records, and managing consultations that require tact and composure.
Application Instructions
Interested candidates should present themselves in person during consultation hours with:
1. A brief description of any prior experience (formal or informal)
2. Examples of prior handwork or a drafted schematic/blueprint (required for applicants without experience)
3. A short written note describing what they hope to learn or contribute
Applications are accepted only at Contingency Plan during posted consultation hours.
Those seeking routine labor should apply elsewhere. Precision, curiosity, and discipline are valued here.

as for me, just come eat when you'd like and if i need something built i'll let you know. that's kinda the whole point
no subject
And yes, I will come eat. Left to my own management I have been doing a remarkably poor job of remembering the basic maintenance of my own person. Vex always had the better head for such things.
no subject
... I'll just add you to the daily deliveries list, man. You sound like a disaster.
no subject
If I am being added to the deliveries list, I will accept the arrangement gratefully. Left to my own scheduling, meals have developed an unfortunate habit of losing arguments with ongoing work, and it is rarely a contest they win.

I am writing to inquire about the expected duties of the Drafting and Measurement Assistant position, as well as the skills that would be desired for such a role. If you could give further detail on what you are looking for any illumination you provide will be appreciated.
I look forward to your response.

The drafting and measurement role is straightforward in concept, though less forgiving in practice. Most of the work involves turning working concepts into clean, readable technical drafts, checking dimensions across component plans, and keeping measurement records consistent as commissions develop. You would also assist with instrument calibration and help maintain the workshop’s schematic archive so nothing drifts out of tolerance between revisions.
The skills that matter most are steady drafting habits, comfort with precision measuring tools, and the patience to verify figures before anything proceeds to fabrication. Speed is pleasant. Accuracy is required.
If you decide to apply, bring along any drafting samples or measurement-focused work you have. I would like to see how you think on paper.

[ Vax has not seen much of Percy since Vex'ahlia left. Maybe this is a sign that Percival is ready to go back to living again. ]

But yes… I suppose stepping outside before I fossilize entirely seemed like a reasonable experiment. If it goes poorly, you are welcome to say you predicted the outcome and look unbearably smug about it.
