Vendor Quest! Gensokyo's New Shopkeeper!

[Hanged Hourai]

> Sigh.
> "What happened?"

>Both stop and look at you.
>Tear: "He was doing inappropriate things to me!"
>Rook: "I thought you were a guy."
>Tear: "That makes it ok?!"
>Rook: "Not like that. I thought she was a guy, so I tried to get her out of the costume."
>Tear: "You were touching me in strange ways!"
>Rook: "It's a little difficult to get a cloak off when you have wings!"

>Then the arguing just goes on like this...

[Hello Purvis]

>"I am going to channel my rage and manifest extra arms. And then I'm going to strangle both of you at the same time. Because I am certain that neither of you started getting dinner ready when you got home like I implied you should."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"I am going to channel my rage and manifest extra arms. And then I'm going to strangle both of you at the same time. Because I am certain that neither of you started getting dinner ready when you got home like I implied you should."

>Tear: "Relax, I always take care of the food in this place."
>Rook: "I'm not ok with living here for free off your food. You are a vendor correct? I want to work for you."

>Note: Having another mouth to feed around here will make daily cost of food 10 gold coins.

[Hello Purvis]

>"You've earned it for awhile, so don't worry about it. We'll find something for you to do. Anyways, toss that disguise in the fire, Tear."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"You've earned it for awhile, so don't worry about it. We'll find something for you to do. Anyways, toss that disguise in the fire, Tear."

>Tear: "Kay."
>She walks over to the fireplace and throws the disguise on it.
>Rook: "I still want to help out. I can offer my services as an errand boy. If you need to pick something up or make a delivery or anything of the sort, I can do it for you."

[Smok, destroyer of thoughts]

>Show him the list.
>"Know anything about these?"

[Hanged Hourai]

>Show him the list.
>"Know anything about these?"

>"No, never heard of any of them before. The streets don't really have much in the way of formal education"

[Kasu]

> "Hmm.  What about you Tear?  Any clue about these?"

[Hanged Hourai]

> "Hmm.  What about you Tear?  Any clue about these?"

>"A few places stand out. I've heard of the mountain, but never went there."
>"Fairies almost never go to the suzuran fields beacause they're supposed to be really deadly."

[Smok, destroyer of thoughts]

>"... Great..."
>Sigh
>"How would you intend to make a living here, Rook? Tear offered this home. And she can cook. She helped me quite a lot and helps all the time. You too, I agree."
>Recall "errand boy"
>"Hmm... there might be something for you.."

What'cha think, Purvis? Have him buy mushrooms from Marisa and sell to grandpa in the village from time to time instead of us? Make him vendor stuff to SDM and the village too? We shouldn't appear in the village for a little time, I think.

[Hello Purvis]

I think we ought to appear in the village the next day, to prove our innocent, and forestall bounty hunters and such. Right now, our only charge is self defense. Also, no more selling to mushroom guy. Next time we undercut him and sell them ourselves. >=[

Making runs to SDM to see if they want anything would be a good use for him.

[Hanged Hourai]

>"... Great..."

>Recall "errand boy"
>"Hmm... there might be something for you.."

>"I can do minor things for you. If you need to deliver a package or a message, I can go for you. If there's something to pick up, I can do that. Just think of me as an employee."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Right, you know the way to the mansion? Go check there for me tomorrow morning, let me know if there are any orders."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Right, you know the way to the mansion? Go check there for me tomorrow morning, let me know if there are any orders."

>"The mansion? I'm not familiar with this place."
>"I don't know this area, so I don't any locations. But I have a good memory and once I learn where it is, I'll be able to remember it."
>"Perhaps I can accompany you for a while to learn all the locations before being able to do it on my own?"

[Kasu]

> "That sounds like a good idea.  Once I get you all situated and comfortable with my clients I'll be able to start making some headway on that list.  I'll take you to the Mansion tomorrow to start with."

[Hanged Hourai]

> "That sounds like a good idea.  Once I get you all situated and comfortable with my clients I'll be able to start making some headway on that list.  I'll take you to the Mansion tomorrow to start with."

>"Thank you."
>He bows his head.
>"Also, where should I sleep?"

[Hello Purvis]

>Direct toward the empty room, or if it is not suitably furnished, wherever linens are stored so he can mock up a sleeping bag.

[Hanged Hourai]

>Direct toward the empty room, or if it is not suitably furnished, wherever linens are stored so he can mock up a sleeping bag.

>"Thank you."
>He gets up and goes into his new room.

[Kasu]

> "Hah...  I'd say thats enough for today.  Need to get some rest after all the crazy stuff that went on.  See ya in the morning Tear."
> Head for bed.

[Hanged Hourai]

> "Hah...  I'd say thats enough for today.  Need to get some rest after all the crazy stuff that went on.  See ya in the morning Tear."
> Head for bed.

>"G'night."

The next day...

-10 gold for cost of food

>You wake up and walk out of your room to find Rook and Tear already up.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Mornin'. Any bounty hunters?"
>Enjoy some breakfasts.

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Mornin'. Any bounty hunters?"
>Enjoy some breakfasts.

>Both of them turn to look at you.
>Tear: "Nope."
>Tear plates you up and you enjoy the breakfasts.
>Tear: "Have any plans for that list?"

[Kasu]

> "I'll probably hit up Alice's place today or tomorrow in order to get some of the locations for the stuff she wants.  Before that though I wanna make sure that Rook knows where our clients live so that he can sell while I look for the stuff."

> "I'll probably hit up Alice's place today or tomorrow in order to get some of the locations for the stuff she wants.  Before that though I wanna make sure that Rook knows where our clients live so that he can sell while I look for the stuff."

>Tear: "M'kay."
>Rook wolfs down the rest of his breakfast.
>"Ready to go?"

[Hello Purvis]

>Once breakfasts are finished. "Alright, let's go. I'll introduce you to Meiling."
>What'd we sell her, anyways? Knitting supplies?

[Hanged Hourai]

>Once breakfasts are finished. "Alright, let's go. I'll introduce you to Meiling."
>What'd we sell her, anyways? Knitting supplies?

>Nails, I believe.
>Rook walks over to the door.

[Hello Purvis]

>To SDM!
>Wasn't there some knitting stuff, too?

[Hanged Hourai]

>To SDM!
>Wasn't there some knitting stuff, too?

> *parser looks through 3 pages of thread* Aha! Sewing needle and spool of thread.

>You and Rook leave the tree house and lead the way to the SDM.
>While walking, Rook speaks up, "So what is the mansion like? Have you been inside?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Yeah, once or twice. It's..."
>Gesticulate for a moment.
>"...Mansiony. Big. Lots of maids."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Yeah, once or twice. It's..."
>Gesticulate for a moment.
>"...Mansiony. Big. Lots of maids."

>"That sounds....remarkeably typical."
>"What do we do once we arrive?"
