NIKI
"That is alright - to be perfectly frank I do not know if I would be able to stop myself from checking your equations anyway." With a sly flash of teeth towards Sunjata, Niki ensures the curtains are tied back before gesturing for the demigod to go ahead and take a seat while he goes to collect his things from his study.
And though Niki doesn't move fast, it isn't far to go, and so it's only a moment later when he returns with a box of what looks like metal parts, as well as a few tools and a fairly thick leatherbound journal. "A steady hand is half the work, so that is a relief," he agrees with a soft laugh, setting down the box on the table and moving to the adjacent chair to sit himself down, hooking his crutch over the back of it in a practiced motion.
"Today I believe we are making trinket boxes," he says, sounding honestly bored about it, but it puts food on the table. Carefully stretching out his right leg - the one banded in metal and leather to keep it braced - he reaches for the journal and flips to a marked page filled with meticulous sketches and measurements. "So if you could measure and mark some of this sheet metal, that would be helpful." He taps the book for reference.

my body's on the line now; I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
