#anywhere

"Don't know who we could trust, but maybe..." She's started walking again, almost jogging, looking from shop to shop for any indication of Wellington.

"Bespell and bewitch all who behold you, raise their desire .." One woman who looks shriveled and hungry eyed calls further from the light "Be worshiped as you should be"

"...nope nope nope..." Sylvi mutters.

"...world of nope..." Her friend agrees as they move on.

And Flopsy strains his ear "I think.. I hear..."

"I heard someone else talking about cookies" Flopsy says "But it's a bit darker"

"Which way?"

"This way" And he leads them on

Sylvi follows Flopsy, checking that Lucia is right with her.

Lucia chases after

And they come to a stall where an almost Gypsy or Traveler wagon is set up, with a man with a pipe is talking "Yes I have cookies like that"

Sylvi slows to a casual not-so-interested walk, looking at whatever is in the next shop over as she tries to get a peek at who's asking about cookies.

And there she sees the sidhe!

The Eiluned lady says "I must make sure they are the RIGHT cookies, the kith changing ones"

A side mutter, "I'll distract her, Lucia, find out if they're right." Then more loudly she says, "Hey! Hi!" A bright smile for the sidhe as she approaches.

Clodagh turns "Oh, hello" Again that odd sense of familiarity

Lucia blinks for a moment, then catches onto something and slips .. a bit back. Trying to do the blending boggan thing

"This isn't the best time, your pardon" Clodagh says

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt," another winning smile for the shopkeep, then she turns back to Clodagh and...stop smiling, meeting her gaze. "I just wanted to say....to say..." a sigh "I'm sorry I was abrupt before."

"Ah yes..." Clodagh says looking a bit apologetic "Sometimes I fear I DO get a bit presumptive myself. So I certainly can't throw stones. I do apologize but I'm on a mission"

"Sure, I just..." she turns a bit to angle the conversation away from the shopkeep. "Do you remember me somehow? Because I kind of remember something about you, but I don't really recall....much. I just...it's kind of a mystery to me."

"More like a strange Deja Vu and..." A realization, "Oh Solveig, you're distracting me..." She whirls and sees Lucia holding a thumbs up

A blink and a puzzled look. "Solveig? But..." Then she sees Lucia, and slips between Clodagh and the merchant's booth, creating at least a bit of a barrier.

Hands on hIps, the Eiluned says "First come, first serve!" As protocal kicks in

And then... the Boggan freezes, and steps back

Sylvi's eyes get wide, then her jaw sets as she tries to resist it. "I...just want to know why you want them..."

Sylvi pushes through, slowly, half effected she might be able to cut with a few british style pardon mes and terribly sorry

"To help right a wrong..."

"...milady." she adds at the end.

She bows her head. "Forgive me, but that is why I need them as well. To right many years of wrongs."

And Sylvi can step ahead "Damn it, you're as frustrating as ever .. and how do I KNOW You are?"

She takes a deep bracing breath. "That I don't know. I mean, Lady, we both know what it likely means, I think. But that isn't the central issue. You need the cookies. We need the cookies." She glances at the market stall. "And...this is not a safe place to get them from, even if he has them."

"We found the cookie... oh" An Eshu says

She frowns at the Eshu. Another place has them?

"Wait, another place has them?"

"if it's all the same to you" Says the Vendor, one Mr. Wellington "I LIKE making sales" Wryly

"Oh! I'm...um...sorry..." she says to the vendor. A measuring look at the brightness of his stall.

A bit shady for their liking

"Okay... bargaining time and not with you, sir forgive" Clodagh turns to Sylvi "How many do you need?"

She bites her lip, then lowers her voice. "As many as we can get, but...I'd love to see if we can get at least twenty. There are many people who need them."

"TWENTY? We only need 8... you need twenty? Oy"

"Well....that would be ideal. I wasn't expecting multiple shops to have them."

The Eshu says "12... Madame Sly has 12"

She goes to Lucia and shakes her shoulder.

"Oh, sorry, " the sidhe snaps her fingers

Lucia grunts "Oh! I hate that"

Sylvi keeps a hand on Lucia's shoulder as she speaks to the sidhe. "Look...my dad gave me some tips about the kinds of places to deal with. And you know we have other people in our group. We need to meet up with them and discuss what we found. What if we all collaborate? And quickly, because other people are probably looking for them, too...."

"I could just dictum this, take our 8 and wish you luck" The Eiluned frowns "But we don't even know the price.. how many do you have, Sir?"

Mr Wellington chuckles "Oh that you came here earlier... I have 12 myself...but earlier I ahd more"

"You could, Lady." Sylvi agrees. "I hope you won't."
