The Market Post

Who: Merchants and You
What: Open Market
When: M12 D14
Where: The Market
Notes & Warnings: Warnings will be in individual thread starters as players see fit. Here is the market OOC post.

The weather is starting to warm from the dead of winter, but it's still cool out. The morning in the market is foggy, too, so the warmer food is still getting a lot of attention. Soups and hot teas and cocoa (refined from the beans gathered in the planet's jungles).

After the recent efforts to clean up the town and the brief increased access to other universes, vendors there are a lot of vegetables brought in from that, too. This has been the first time in a long time there has been such a variety so take advantage of the displays. There are also people that have been trying out the potion samples here and there, doing things like attempting to set themselves on fire or inhale water. Luckily 99% of them are stopping when they're warned when their timer is running out.

There is the odd idiot that doesn't know how to hold his magic. Injuries won't be grave when they do happen, just incredibly stupid.

If anyone who helped investigate swamps wants to talk to travel agents about potential trips home, this is the chance to do it. Remember that you can also take visitors with you when the time comes around.

[Linda blinks at the rather contradictory sight of her serious boss and that bright cotton candy]

I'm not sure I'm really the opinion you want, to be honest. I've never worked with anything like this before. [she gestures at the map in front of her] I can see what came up, but I'm not really sure how you navigate with it.
most_feared: please don't use, i paid for these (k - oh what's that there?)

I'm sure you can get the hang of it. I know when you start runnin' into new areas it starts recording the space around you. Maybe you can mark coordinates with it, too.
domesheriff: (Consider)

Like, automatically? [she frowns at the display] I guess it's a little different than a map off a satellite. Mind if we try walking around with it to see what it does? Or were you here to buy something? [she gestures at Jeebs' stall]

Why not. I wanted to get your thoughts on the different types of force fields we found, too.

[He starts to walk, not really waiting.] I checked out Boone's new hammer, too. Thing packs a hell of a punch.

You've got more to look at? [that clearly catches Linda's interest. she immediately follows after him, leaving the map display up as she goes. it begins to build a map of the area as she moves, but she's more focused on Kay than on it at the moment]

He bought a hammer? [she frowns, not sure she understand the significance of that] Does it...do something different than a normal hammer?

You know what? We should go have a look at one of those hammers.

[Because he had fun using it, and he expects the look on her face will be great to see. If there's any fun this man has in life, it's meeting looks of discovery on people with his usual bluntness.]

[He heads for Xur's stall.]
domesheriff: (Confused)

[personal profile] domesheriff 2015-05-02 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay... [she's not sure why he's so interested in the hammers of all things, but she's willing to go along with him, so she keeps following as he heads for Xur's stall]

The Nine are interested in what this place can do.

Hello, Xur. [Kay says casually, ignoring the odd looking man's rambling as he comes up to look at his displayed wares. The man shifts oddly in his hooded cloak, white eyes turning to Linda. Tendrils of smoky grey squirm in front of his face. But Kay doesn't seem to be bothered by any of it as he hefts up a super sledge for her to see. Having tried one out, he actually pays for this one.]

It has a mechanism to make it hit a lot hard. No one wants to have to be close to one of those spiders, but if you have to be? This is your friend.
domesheriff: (Asking)

[personal profile] domesheriff 2015-05-07 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Linda finds Xur rather off-putting, but she tries to focus instead on what she can now see is a sledgehammer] Oh...

How hard is "a lot"? Is it really that effective with them?

[He hands it to her to hold.] How does the weight feel in your hands, by the way. [Just testing to see how the balance would be on a smaller person.]
domesheriff: (Head-tilt)

[she takes it, frowning as she hefts it more easily than she would have expected] It's not that heavy for something that's supposed to pack a punch.
