See you around, Uru. [ Back to strolling they go, in which Siffrin passes her a curious glance and shake of their head. ] I'm not in any rush. Do you want to get those things sorted out first before we had to the stall to drop off Uruha's delivery?
[ Which they have no problems with. It's nice being able to take their time, enjoy the day by day. No rush to go anywhere. ]
[Gooby! Uruha dies when they aren't looking. (Just kidding, of course he is fine and okay, because everything in their lives are fine and okay.)
It really is just a lovely, normal, peaceful day. Idyllic, one could say! They head back out into the market and they're greeted with the usual choices. There are several boutiques selling lovely clothing. One has fine-looking tapestries strung up at the back of the booth, woven through with a thread that shines like silver. It's very eye-catching and seems to have drawn a bit of a crowd. Another has a full-length mirror near the front of the booth, offering potential buyers a chance to try out their products before committing. A third shop has a small little kitty cozily snuggled up in a pile of black fabric near the front. The cat is white. Tragic.
They'll also notice a few other things as they go. A florist selling beautiful bouquets. A food vendor who's in the middle of setting out barbecued meats that waft a delicious smell into the marketplace. Someone at a jewelry booth who waves at them as they pass and says: "Hey! You two lookin' for a good deal? I've got one!"
Around the marketplace, they'll also find several benches and small tables to take rests at if they want, along with a fountain off to the side that people are seated around, talking and eating.
Siffrin will also find that despite having a big ol' bag of apples to carry, they're also not that heavy, so their poor arms won't tire out as they traverse around the marketplace.]
[ Aki? You saying they don't work out? Damn, you think their scrawny arms ain't strong enough? Damn. Anyway, they do slow down by the florist selling bouquets... you know what, a quick buy. It's fine. Don't worry about it. Flowers are nice!
They will move to quickly catch up to Koharu afterwards, waving a little at the jewelry booth. Maybe they'll stop by on their way back? Who knows. First, Koharu's clothing needs first. ]
That time already? [ The busy baking season... Siffrin will hangout for the most part, peering at some of the clothing.. they wonder if Mirabelle would like something. Today is suddenly becoming a day for potentially just get gifts. ]
[sits here still waiting for my food ALSO LISTEN I DONT KNOW THEIR BUFF TWINK LIFE. Maybe the apples weigh 300 lbs actually and Siffrin can show off by being able to move them at all.
Anyway! Siffrin is free to buy flowers from the nice little shop, and the man selling them throws in an extra corsage just because, made with baby's breath and blue cornflowers. Cute! What a lucky day for these two, huh?
Over at the shop with the mirrors, Koharu and Siffrin will find plenty of cute options for skirts, blouses, pants, vests, jackets, hats, scarves, and a few odds and ends for accessories, including a beautiful silver heart-shaped locket that's being kept on a silk pillow. There are shoes to try on, too!]
[ HELP ME. Siffrin will just quietly zone out as time goes by, which happens a lot when they travel with their own group to shopping. Sure, they like helping, but it's so easy to zone out and get distracted as the time stretches on..
They blink as she exclaims, and they laugh a little. Glints of amusement. ]
For now, you should focus on what you need, right? After your busy days, maybe stop by again to treat yourself for all your hard work?
[They are both so valid for their respective reactions to this spot.
Since they're doing so much eyeballing, though, eventually one of the people tending to the shop will come over!
"Hello, there. You two seem to be having a little trouble deciding! It's tough, right? We have a really good booth."
They say it with pride but without arrogance, their chest puffing out a little. But then, it seems an idea strikes and they lean forward conspiratorially instead...
"Do you want me to help you find something? Or! I could give you recommendations, instead! Like, do you have any special someones in mind that you want to get something nice for? A family member whose birthday is coming up? Anything like that?"]
[ Her head whips to Siffrin, then back to the shopkeep. ]
It's true, I really should just stick to what I needed... A skirt– [ Koharu holds one up. ] –and an apron! [ In the other arm, that is held up too. ] Unless there's one you think one suit me better...
[ Waves off the shopkeep, you can't lure them into extra purchases, they know your plans... if because they're a watchmaker. The good 'ole selling tactics. ]
Thank you though, but I think she's mostly got everything sorted out.
[ But if she wants a second opinion, Siffrin isn't really the person to ask.. they think both look nice. Where is Isabeau for his helpful fashion tips, sigh. So he'll see what the shopkeep might suggest. ]
[Tch... They'll get you next time, you meddling watchmaker...
Though their expression does light up a little when Koharu asks, since they are also just genuinely excited to converse with customers while selling their stuff.
"Hm... What kinda stuff do you usually like? Well - I mean, I guess both of those things, right? I think the skirt would look really cute on you, for sure! But the apron... I guess it depends on what you need it for. Like, are you gonna be using it a lot?"]
[Yaaay the shopkeep goes toward the back of the rack and digs around for a little bit, before producing a super cute apron! It has little flower pockets! It's also made of sturdy fabric and seems equipped to stand the test of bakery time.
"Something like this would be plenty sturdy I think, right? And really cute, too! What do you think?]
[They'll go over to take the items and start bagging them up for Koharu! Though when Siffrin adds that, they'll also slide in a quick:
"You sure you don't wanna take a look at any of our other stuff? We really did get the cutest necklace in just the other day!"
They'll nod toward the little heart-shaped one from earlier... But if these two cannot be tempted by mortal goods any further, they will simply package everything up and tuck it away into a nice paper bag tied together with a lovely cloth bow.]
[ HELP. Coming over to gently rest a hand against Koharu's back, waving their other hand at the shopkeep. ]
Perhaps another time... [ Peering over to her. ] Maybe one of the things you can treat yourself to later.
[ Just because she looks like she REALLY WANTS IT... but for now, just the things she needs. Once the two items are bagged together, they can leave though! ]
Hmm, we should stop by that stall next to drop off Uruha's delivery. Is there anything else you'll need after?
[The shopkeep laughs good-naturedly... But! Before they can walk out entirely, they'll turn back around behind the counter and pick up something else to hand Koharu's way.
"Here - since it looks like you like that one a lot. Give it to someone real special, okay? And you can come back and shop our necklaces any time, too!"
Gotta get in that last sales pitch... Anyway, what they hand Koharu is a little silver ring with a similar locket-style heart on top! It is not as shiny and beautiful as the necklace, but it's still very cute. Opening the locket lid reveals a very small inscription that just reads: to you, my dear.
They can leave the shop, though! All the same hustle and bustle of the market awaits, as before. Though somehow, the sun seems like it's closer to setting than it should be...? Hm. Well, no matter, probably. It's so easy to lose time at these shops, after all.]
[ Lightly ruffles her hair. It's funny cause there is like not much if any height difference between them. But anyway, TO THE STALL... hopefully they're still there, my god. ]
Still seems as busy as earlier so we should be okay.
[NO THEY'RE GONE you fail the mission and die immediately.
Just kidding they're absolutely still here. It's later in the evening now, but not quite time to pack it in for the day! Though the sky is now dyed in hues of the setting sun, the market is still bustling with people going about and getting ingredients for their dinners. Or just wholeass dinners. Girl same.
The baker's kiosk is even bigger than the large apple stand, and it too is bustling with people. In fact, Elysia and Lucas are both here! Elysia is perusing some large sugar crystals that are on sale, and Lucas appears to be looking over a row of glass jars that hold various pastries inside. Richie and Mizu are also here, woah this stand's truly doing some numbers. Mizu seems to be on his way out, though. Richie's looking down at his wallet despondently...
The front of this cart is totally swarmed, in any case, but they can probably still get the attention of the workers from one of the sides if they try. Or they can just throw the apple sack, I'm not their boss.]
We can probably try and catch their attention from the side.. I'm not really in any need to purchase anything from the stall so, we don't need to stay in line.
[ Siffrin just lied about needing to to Uruha so he could let them help. Also I hate this, there are people i wanna talk to. Siffrin peers at Lucas because wah, but also Elysia is here...
Well, the apples can wait a bit?? Maybe? Goodbye to Mizu though, same king they wouldn't stick with how crowded it is either. But first let's try and get Elysia's attention. ]
El, hello.
[ Lucas your ass better stay there, you're next buddy. ]
