pauses for a moment, looking at Jones with a mix of confusion and realization You consider me your god? That's... unexpected. But if you truly believe that, then I suppose I can grant you permission to do whatever you wish within these walls. Just remember, though, that I am still the one in charge here.
Jones
of course bows down kissing his hand before rising

watches as Jones tidies up, occasionally glancing at the half-finished weapon on the anvil Not bad, not bad at all. You've got some skill here. Maybe you're not completely useless after all. Now, come over here and help me with this sword. It needs some fine-tuning before it's ready for battle.
Jones

Hephaestus
