full moon rising on the waters of my soul
Laughing at Sam's reaction, Amun shrugged at the redhead's comment. "It's not a big deal. And I definitely think it's worth it." The potter beamed as he gestured around at the shelves that lined the room, which held all sorts of pottery: plates, cups, vases, bowls, boxes, even statues. Each one was painted, a riot of colors and designs spanning from simple geometric shapes to portraits both stylized and realistic.
Still smiling, he nodded at the other man. "Talking it is." Then Amun smirked. "We'll see where that takes us." He hummed a tone in the back of his throat.
Shaking his head, he leaned forward to peer at the vase. "Well done. Really well done." He grinned lopsidedly.
"It's much better, but glazing is actually the last step. Sorry for the confusion." Taking a slim blade, he held it out to Sam. "Use this to trim off some of the excess clay, even it out a bit. You can also carve grooves. Just spin the wheel and hold it against the clay. If you're trimming, run it up and down the area you want to make smaller. If you want to make a groove, hold it in place until there's a small one." The potter smiled. "Just don't cut too deep and you'll be fine."
Assuming the redhead took the knife, Amun would head over to the kiln. Taking a poker, he'd carefully expose the coals. Then he'd toss some kindling followed by some logs until it was blazing merrily. All the while, he'd give the blaze a respectful amount of space.
