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.

[it seems like Caitlyn finds this incredibly important...so Elena skips the food for the moment, too-- you can solve mysteries on an empty stomach, or somewhat empty]

So what do you want to know? I've only noticed the toys midway through the market.

As much as you know about them. Where they’re been found, who distributes them, what they look like—

[A glance up from the notepad.] Oh, and: What’s your name?

[her spine straightens-- its a little like talking to Tseng, actually...and it's a comfort. following orders, giving a report:]

They're about this big-- [hand hovering less than a foot above her open palm] light brown, has an angry face-- oh, and my name's Elena.

[The pen stops mid-scrawl.]

Elena.

[Caitlyn pulls her hood down. If Elena’s seen her face before, it might be more recognizable now, bright blue eyes no longer in shadow. And widened, for a moment, too.]

I— How often do you come here? [Less interrogative, more ‘what are you doing at the midnight sacrament?!’]

petitepistol: (its found its end in you)

[personal profile] petitepistol 2025-05-08 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
[her eyes widen with recognition-- she laughs a little--] Hey! I don't come here all that often, to be honest. Apparently more than you, though.

Well, can’t say I have before tonight. [She flips back through the notepad, several pages earlier—then turns it to show Elena.

[Behold—in rough pencil sketch form.]

I received a tip that an item like this was spotted in the area. Item, singular. [The paper lowers.] What you describe—is it anything like this.

[she lights up again-- this time in interest]

That's it! It was frowning more, and maybe a little darker...but yes, that's it.
