Yshea's Apothecary and Residence


Recommended Posts

A silver coin was settled upon the counter. One more to the glorious stack! She slid it over to the rest. Her coin purse was lifted up and the coins carefully pushed into it. It was becoming a bit heavier now, and so instead of returning it to her side she simply slid it beneath the counter for the moment. She could deal with that later.

When she looked up again she found her golden orbs locking with Lumian's. Now the man was leaning on the counter. Not only that but he was awfully close. Her heart started to quicken its pace again. The compliment was certainly nice enough, but he wanted to see her face. Fear, for the moment, outweighed anything else.

Why would he want to see that?! Oh wait. His Uncle. I see where he gets it from.

"U-um-"

Suddenly they were both cut off by the other brother! A headlock tugged the Human away from the counter, giving her a chance to breathe a quick sigh of relief. That was a close one! It also gave her a moment to consider her answer, especially when the man started requesting a peek for coins. He could certainly afford it, and she could certainly use more. But right now she had a fair amount. It wasn't a necessity.

She had to be careful about her answer. Too relieved and they could get suspicious. Thankfully there was something she could play on here. It might even give her some leverage in the future if she needed it!

"That would spoil the surprise, I'm afraid" the Goblin teased with perhaps a hint of a seductive undertone. A good hook to be sure! Maybe! Only time would tell really. But it would offer at least something of an excuse and, more importantly, wouldn't make her look any more suspicious than she already was. Well, she hoped anyways.

"It was a pleasure meeting you both. Welcome to our humble village. Feel free to stop by whenever. If you see the shop closed it probably means I am out gathering."

Umbral let go the younger brother and kicked him in the ass. Lumian grimaced at his brother and gathered the jars before promptly leaving the store altogether. He knew that the black haired brother would drop off the stuff with Stephan, words weren't needed for that. Sighing and shaking his head Umbral turned back to Yshea with her comments staining his mind. In a good way, nothing negative. His red eyes pierced the mask of Yshea, though he couldn't place it, there was the feeling of deception behind the 'diseased skin' facade. Then again, Umbral was critical of everything and everyone but differed from Lumian. 

"Should you need us, or require our services, be free to hollar." Umbral stated in a tone, perhaps not as nearly seductive, hinted behind 'Services.' He winked then grabbed his own jar of tonic and walked out. Umbral would catch up to to his younger brother. Yes indeed, if he was correct, then perhaps the woman beneath that mask was a pretty face trying to hide from the world. That much he could gather.
