Night market



Welcome to...

The Night Market

Even as the sky gets dark, there's still a lot of lights and life all over this busy street full of people. Vendors and customers from all over come to share and appreciate their creations, taking in this lively atmosphere. Eat, drink, be merry - but watch out for pickpockets and price gouging.

Rules:

1. Comment with your characters. Feel free to specify if they're a vendor/merchant, performer, or someone just here to enjoy the market.
2. Hang out, meet new people, laugh at the bootleg toys, and stuff your faces with good food and drinks.

[She's definitely got a booth set up, OOAK fashion pieces (like ponchos that make you look like you're a mushroom, purses that look like a TV dinner and hats made of clear colored vinyl to look like stained glass and the like) and little knickknacks like little hermit crab figurines with human skulls for shells, or snails with all kinds of things for shells, or critters made out of gears and bent utensils and glass beads. She'll also take orders for custom pieces, as well.]

[He's probably here for a job, though he might just be people-watching. Chances are he's A: in disguise so he can actually interact with people (in which case he looks nothing like himself) or B: can only be seen by folks who have had a near-death experience or are otherwise sensitive to The Unknown (psychics and very young kids and the like)
OR option C: it's more like the Floating Market from Neverwhere, then it's already full of supernatural types anyway and he's there for supplies and/or knick-knacks]

Nights are a good time for Frankie. It's not like he can't be out in the day like a vampire or something, but night time is more... comfortable. Even in a place like this, lit up with lights of all kinds, the shadows lurk more easily with the sun safely set.

He managed to get his hands on some money, somehow, so he wandered the market, trying foods he never had before (or can't remember tasting), listening to the music coming from every corner, looking at the things for sale and the people wandering alongside him.

Mostly content to wander, Frankie kept moving until he came across one lone busker--a handsome man with long dark hair and a guitar, crooning a song that... well. It touched Frankie in a way music hadn't for a long time. He stepped closer, out of the river of people, and found a place nearby to stand and listen as he finished the pastry he'd gotten at his last stop.

Once the man's done with his song, Frankie drops a twenty in whatever container he's using to collect money.

[She's probably out there pickpocketing like it's her job (it kind of is) or reverse-pickpocketing, which is to say leaving her calling card (Antiques & Antiquities Relocated For Reasonable Fees!) in people's pockets or bags.

[Market night out in the Zones is a whole thing. Has to be after that big ball of radiation we call 'the sun' has gone down just so nobody gets radiation poisoning, and it's way out where they won't get spotted by city drones right away.
It's some combination of swap meet and trunk sale with live music and games of all sorts. People are having a good time, but they're all prepared to scatter or fight at the first sign of an Exterminator or a squad of Dracs.]

It was not supposed to be this hard. She just wanted to pick up some supplies for her little crew. Annie had gotten used to life after the hellscape they had been rescued out of. The others still looked to her as their leader or what was that word the Mandalorian who had saved them had used?

Vid. No, vod. It made sense and while she had taken to learning the language of their rescuers Annue was having trouble with Basic. She should have stuck with them for a while longer but there were reasons to be on their own for a little while. Annie did not think they were in danger of anything but being frustrated.

When she spots beskar out of the corner of her eye Annie relaxes. What she had been told is that she could trust other Mandalorians. That she and her little aliit would be fine.

Din is very carefully approached because Annie is pretty sure the adult will know Basic. He can help translate if she asks nicely.

[Excuse me.] Annie waits a beat before continuing on as if Mando'a was perfectly acceptable for talking in. Which it is given she'd normally be chattering with their sort of hero whenever they were around each other. Annie had been learning, damn it. [I do not speak Basic. I am having difficulty. ]

[She's putting on a performance -- ostensibly a dancer, but quite a clumsy one. Likely it will dawn on the observers that this is a comedy act, and the real feature is her pantomime distress and frustration at failing the steps.]

[But in truth, the comedy act is also a distraction -- an opportunity for the pickpockets that Aurra is really working with to ply their craft.]


{{ OOC: Aurra is mute, having had her tongue cut out years ago, but she's quite experienced at getting her point across. She's used to hiding the fact that she can read and write, but I'm willing to play her doing so if that makes it easier.

I figure you can play her 'dance partner' in this comedy act, be a pickpocket in the crowd, or maybe someone who is being stolen from. And if you've got other ideas I haven't thought of, feel free! }}

[His stall is lovely; decorated with colourful paper lanterns and brocade silks. The main displays are ornate bottles, pots, jars and lacquer boxes of medicines for all manner of ailments, but there are more modest displays of incense, perfumes, and fragrant oils as well. Strings of omamori hang from the stall's posts, the silk pouches in every colour of the rainbow, vibrant in the soft glow of his lanterns.

The merchant is as colourful and eclectic-looking as his merchandise, though there is something rather ominous in that small, self-satisfied smile of his.

Maybe double check his prices. Just in case.]

Ah, excuse me–

[Whether you’re a vendor whose table has been stopped by, a performer between shows, or anyone else passing through, you’ve been approached by a tall young woman in a hood. There’s an object strapped over her back, potentially recognizable as a folding rifle, and she may or may not be wearing a patch over her left eye, pirate-style. If the latter is present (oocly, your call*), she keeps the person she’s approached to her right.]

—have you seen a small, mechanical… toy? About [gesturing at some round shape, the size of a small jar] this size.

[Skulking around the edges of the market is a very polite corpse. Pallid, unblinking, unbreathing; it quietly hopes it might encounter some sort of necromancer or magic-user who might be able to explain what it is and why it crawled out of a ditch in the woods in the first place.]

[ One of the top benefits of this era of Perpetua's life has been, without question, the travel. So many new places, new people, new and vibrant things to see every night, that he'd had the means but never the motivation to see before; little snippets of other lives thrumming along in places that have nothing to do with him and won't bother to miss him after he's passed through. It's nice.

That's why he's out here tonight, dressed down from his stage flashiness (black on black and a less reflective mask, for sure) skimming the Night Market nearest the hotel to kill some time before taking off to the next stop just before sunrise. He can never know what he'll find at these things: a passing friend, a meal, a --

Walking dead person? Sure. Intrigued, Perpetua follows it quietly for a little while, both his vampiric senses and his still-perplexing newfound abilities tied to his lineage whispering to him that something isn't quite right with this thing. Well, the obvious aside.

Once they've passed a few stalls, he picks up his pace just enough to sidle up next to the... corpse. Guy? Corpse guy? ]


Hey there, buddy. [ He tilts his head to see its face better. ] You good?

[ She'd never thought she'd make it this far but here she was with her own little stall in the market square. Her parents were so proud as she decorated the three tables with fans and silks and probably enough other things to mistake her for some textile wares person. But on the velvet showcases lay bits of jewelry, all metal made by her hand in various styles and sizes. Pendants, rings, chains, bracelets all adorned one half of the display surface while the other half carried weapons. Small knives, daggers, things that could be decorative and things that could be functional. The showcased piece was the sabre she had crafted herself last year, displayed under glass and not for sale.


Between all these metal bits were other pieces of art. Hand made sculptures and reliefs that Mira also had made just to break up the expanse of metal. The sign over her stall was 'Your Next Friend, Knack' for her little business. Hopefully, she would sell some items. Hopefully, someone would be interested in a little extra protection with a little extra personality tucked in.]
