    Roaming through the streets of Kirigakure, Grey shifts his stare among the various shops and stalls filling the marketplace. In all honesty, he's mostly just window shopping for the time being. He's had some decent ideas for what he'd want to work with as far as equipment goes, whenever he does get some anyways. That being said, 'The Hero' in all his glory is fitted with nothing more than a pair of gray pants, a baggy, black jacket fully zipped up to his neck, and matching standard-issue sandals.

    He doesn't even have a kunai pouch or backpouch strapped to his person, though his headband is coiled lightly about his neck, jingling about with every step he takes. Stopping by one of the more interesting shops, be it for glamour or some odd trait to it, the Diabolus cocks his left brow, turning to gaze in contemplation. And sure enough, after some delay, he slides his hands into his pockets and strides his way on into the store in question -- No Last Name Emporium.

    Immediately shifting his attention about the inside of the building, he takes in his sights. 'Huh. Can't really tell if it's good or not. Certainly better than what I could do in this avenue of work, though, haha.' Grey thinks to himself, simply advancing at a sauntering pace. He raises one hand to his chin, pressing the side of his index into his jawline while his thumb presses into the opposing side of it. Whatever may be on display certainly looked good -- assuming there was anything to see for that matter.

    The ringing of the bell as the door opened, entering the half of the lazily merged shops. For him to see was a side collection of mannequins, most having strange drawn on faces akin to a child's art. Some were quite well done, while others seemed to be plastered in crayon. The latter, done recently by the man in his later years. His artistic hand replaced, with a nearly autistic mind. The glass windows that held the fine suits and stills in their poses. The woven silk, and armed shinobi. On this side, the dolls held plastic weapons, nothing really refined. Those that did hold weapons for the full visual were poorly made, simply made as a decoration. The owner of the shop, stood behind the counter, a strange fedora on his head and a crooked mustache. It was no doubt a fake one, but still, he wore it.

    But in the middle of the shop, to the right wall was a large gaping hole that led to the other shop owned by the man. The smell of a forge, with a light aroma of honey and barbecue. From it, metal mannequins that dawned stranger clothing that was made of mix matched cloth, and metals unrefined. No doubt that side held the lower quality clothing, but in their hands, much more refined weapons. The walls lined with cases and displays, and barrels of other things.

    "Hweor khans eis halps yew?" the man spoke cheerfully.

    The front of store's a sight to see, Grey'll say that much. The stark contrast between some of the mannequins is quite offputting, especially if looked at from a side-by-side comparison. Even with the oddities that are the mannequins, though, the shop has it's own uniqueness to it. A flare, perhaps? Grey can't exactly put his finger on it, but he at the very least knows good and well he wouldn't be able to deny that attribute about the establishment. Leaning forth a little bit to stare at the armed mannequins, the Diabolus keeps his hand postured upon the lower end of his face. 'This is quite... passionate?' The man muses to himself, unsure how he should truly feel about this.

    Ascending back into full stature, Grey's gaze drifts throughout the rest of the shop, stoppng up the owner after he speaks up. Returning his cheer, he offers a small smile and doing his best to mask his slight unease. He could barely even understand what the man just said. His gaze momentarily flicks across the rest of the shop, peering about at the hole guiding into what he could only assume was where this... interesting man made the magic happen. As offputting as he feels just being here, it's still all impressive in even Grey's visage. After that shift in attention, Grey's gaze settles back upon Igor.

    "Oh. I was just looking at your wares -- I assume you made this yourself, yeah? It looks great. Made me wonder if you were taking orders." He chimes, letting his smile grow into a grin and putting on an air of positivity.

    "I have to get the ryo for them first but I've got a few ideas. Mainly a weapon if those are interestin' to you."

    He must have been a man of art. His gaze focused on the fine drawings Igor had made on the mannequins, all before landing at the counter with him in front. A smile on the strange man's face as he listened intensively.

    "Yeath yeath." he would answer the man. "bhuts alothws mai asthisnenths." He would extend his hand to wave in a gesture over all of his wares. "Aie althow taths oardurs." She would nod proudly, "Bhuths manis sekths Khagi fuors wheapuns. Bhauts I khans althous geths ets dhuns." He stared at the figure before him. He didn't often recommend his competitors, but sometimes it was better to give them what they wanted, than what he could profit on.

    Grey does a genuine double take. '... Hold on, what?' He muses in silence, slowly deciphering it. After he's established a general idea of what the man is saying, he tentatively responds with an understanding bob of his head. Lowering his hand, he tucks it away into his pocket.

    "Right, so speaking to administration should be the better move first?" He asks, after a short pause on his end. Just to make sure that he seems to understand what the man is saying. He'd rather not come off as though he doesn't get what he's saying, just in case it'd offend or hurt him. After all, Grey can't even pay the man right now to make something, or take something off of his hands -- as much as he wants to. He still needs to get some funds.

    "Do I still have to see them out if I wanted to go for Armor? Also, did you need anyone to do any favors or something like that? Trying to get in the spirit of helping people outside of for missions or money. Gotta make the connections first, you know?" Putting the offer out there never hurts, does it?

    He may have been a nice boy, but it seemed as if he just couldn't understand Igor. But why? Kaji was the more efficient weapon crafter, though Igor was not far behind. He excelled in armor, and had only recently studied to work with weapons. Most of his orders were taken by his assistants. But with the coming prep of the village, he was going to learn how to make them as well, as well as other things. Igor could get the work done, but even he knew it wasn't as well off as the other guy.

    "Kno noe..." He would slowly go over his words, hoping the man would understand. "Aiz khan maek armurs. Noe kneth phor asik." He slowly spoke his words, hoping he could understand. "Khagi aiz beuther ahts wuapuhns."

    It was alright though. You just needed to take a little extra time with these people. You couldn't get mad. Some people were just born a little spezuls.

    Fortunately, Grey seems to understand what he's saying better than before. Patiently listening to the man as he speaks, the Diabolus' eyes damn near brighten with realization, as though he became Edison discovering the light bulb. Letting out a small sigh of relief, he flashes as big a grin as he can muster. "Aaah, alright. That makes much more sense, got ya'." He remarks, laughing. In seamless fashion, he executes the stereotypical back-of-the-head scratch. Retracting his hand back into his pocket shortly after, he decides to throw out his offer one more time. Perhaps he'll be able to find some means to assist this.. interesting man afterall?

    "In any case, were you lookng for a hand at all with something? -- Ah right, I'm Grey, by the way. Grey Diabolus. The Hero to be." Did the end of that even sound good? Was that corny? Is he going to manage to make himself look weird in the face of this man somehow? 'Aaaagh I probably messed it up!' Brief panic has set in for the so-called hero.

    The boy seeme dto finally take note of what Igor was trying to say. Thank god. He could only dumb down his words so much. Any further and it would have been incoherent babbling, which would set him not that much more above an infant. But maybe in a few cases he would soon meet, maybe that would be what he needed to do. Some people just needed to take things slower than others. Pity.

    "Yuthhs mei khals meh Eyegur. No Last Name." The last of his words much more clear than the others. It was like a movie moment where just a single line was dubbed and replaced over, like it wasn't his words. But still, he went on. "Wahts khan yew douhs?" he asked curiously.

    None the wiser as far to Igor's disposition and the irony in it all, Grey maintains his positive nature. He's relieved that the man didn't seem to comment on Grey's little 'hero' bit. Even if he did, the man would still be caught up with quietly trying to understand what the man is saying afterward. Fortunately, what little that he does understand seems to be enough for him. From what he could tell, his name was.. Egor? Huh? The last part throws him off too. Did he just say something completely comprehensible? What the hell was that? His poor linguistics definitely don't appear to be an act, but who really knows. Not wanting to get it wrong either, Grey decides he'll just address him by his surname. That could work, right?

    "So you'd technically be Mister No Last Name? That's.. interesting. As far as what I'm capable of? Any physical labor you need. I can't quite say I know how to do what you're capable of in the way of craftsmanship -- that much is something I can't match. But I can take care of fetching or collecting anything. Whatever it may be. I'd say I can fare well enough in that line of work " Grey chimes. Right now, he's probably nowhere near the level he'd like to be in order to effectively back up that statement of his, but experience would help him flourish more than anything. Provided he doesn't get crushed in the process of trying.

    The nerve of the children nowadays. Did they have no respect? He dare mock Igor's own surname? What a fool to do such a thing, then try to present himself as a hero of sorts. He was a moron it seemed, and Igor would have to do his best to deal with the strange hatchling at his doorstep.

    He wanted to be famed, yet prided himself on being an errand boy. His eyes looked through the hole in the wall to look at his own assistant, someone not that much younger than what stood in front of him, but was obedient. As well as someone who understood where the lines were between them. This child, had a lot of work to do. "Mmmmmth..." He mused to himself. "Uthlil dhaphs dhey, breng mei da mattyrals, und eyes wilcra furyew." A simple proposal, one that would fetch the boy to get his own materials, and to see what he kept for himself.

    Just handle getting the materials? It actually sounds perfectly fine to him. He'd just need to know what materials to get in particular. After all, Grey is not knowledgeable about crafting. His best assumption is that he'd need to get some type of metal, and then maybe cloth of some form. Regardless, the Diabolus decides that he'll just go on ahead and ask. It's better than trying to assume and then messing up such a simple errand.

    "Of course. What materials do you want? And how much of them?" He inquires calmly. Reaching both hands out of his pants pocket, he retrieves a notepad and pencil. He typically carries one around to make note of the errands he has to tend to for the day (and remember which ones he finished), so it's no different here. Casually noting down this as an errand, he awaits for Igor to answer his inquiries in that regard. All while silently hoping that he didn't somehow misunderstand him again this time around. That'd be no good for representing the image that he wishes to establish.

    '.. The more experience I get, the better.' Grey muses, keeping that same air about him.

    "]
    What materials? Well, that depended on him. If he got gold or steel, Igor would craft it out of that. If he brought stone, then Igor would chisel it down to what he requested. The stronger materials he brought, the stronger of a weapon Igor could make. Any material's brought would be used. Anything Igor was able to keep for himself, he would hold onto. It was up to the boy to bring in the finest, or to bring in simply what he could find.

    "Dhaus moar yew brieng, da betur." he would answer. "Dath mattyrals dpents ein yew."

    If the boy brought flowers, than a braided stem blade he would get.

    Grey offers a confirmatory bob of his head on that note. He doesn't mind having the materials brought left to him. And while he doesn't know too much about metallurgy, he feels confident enough that he'd be able to pick up supplies that are suitable for the task. "Right right. I'll go and get started on that, then. Thank you for the help." One hand is elevated to his chest, planted there as he leans forth into a bow to the man. Regardless of how odd that conversation may have been for the two of them, Grey casts aside his own end of it to end on a pleasant note.

    It's not long after that the man ascends, and twists upon his foot. With a shift of his gaze over his shoulder and an elevation of his right hand, he waves goodbye to Igor.

    "See you around." He starts to make way for the entrance to the store, to head on his merry way.
