To be fair, the alchemy bit is a rather new addition.
[Though he can't argue with the rest of the list, and there's no denying that the magic this place had seen fit to gift him with suited him. He was someone who took great pleasure in learning new things, understanding how things worked at their very core, and so while alchemy and technomancy had both introduced him to countless new concepts, he was finding the process of learning to use them effectively quite enjoyable. Compared to many other outlanders here, he had been incredibly lucky.
Even as he gives that small correction, his smile pulls a bit to one side. She's very good at putting pieces together; it's not the first time he's taken notice of that, but he does wonder how many he might have given her by now without meaning to.]
I'd argue that's a rather grand claim, and one I might be hesitant to make myself, but I certainly don't mind implying it.
[Reputation is, after all, a significant part of being a sky pirate— or notoriety, more accurately.]
We'll see if it's something you'd consider a 'work of art' when it's finished— whenever that may be. [Right now, it may as well be an age away. He's in a foreign land with foreign materials, and no skystones to speak of. That means working on a new sort of engine.] A ship is more than a vessel or status symbol, as well. For a pirate, it's home.
