I'll put a spell on you

Best paired with this theme song:

  Vivi wasn’t planning to sell anything at this bazaar, but then after seeing that this certain wizard was selling some wares….she wanted to show him whose boss in these neck of the woods. Might as well make a pretty penny while she’s at it, right?

“Welcome~!!”

Buy my shit, bitches.I got bills to pay.  

Marlin and Vivi had worked together in the past. Done…unsavory things in the past, under Matai. He hadn’t seen her since he’d left his employ, and passing her booth made him come to a sudden stop as he stared at her, looking as carefree as usual as she dealt with another customer.

In that moment, he was thankful for his knives on him. Just in case.

He sauntered up, hands in his pockets, eyes never leaving her face, and when she did look at him he looked away, setting his jaw and selecting one of her potion necklaces. “This. A potion surprise. And a reading.”

"How have you've been? Doing well, I hope." She grabs the potion and takes a look at it. " This will be 500g just so you know. Though I suppose for old times sake-" and the fact you could even stand up to that crazy guy" this is on the house."

…..More…..sweets?  Oh, if there was an afterlife, this would been it alright. And it was from her loyal noble steed, Ava?–Laney! Vivi had to do her part and support her friendly acquaintance.  (friends? what are those?) So walking over, the witch greets the blonde in good spirits.  “Hey!~  Well if it isn’t Laney! ☆ “ Vivi greeted her, all warm and smug surprisingly. “I didn’t know you make sweets! Or at least, I’m presuming that you made all these…” Did it really matter? They all looked so good. “I was wondering if I could make a few purchases, please and thank you!~  ☆ “ The witch then points out to the goods that appealed to her (well everything did, truly.)  Dragon’s Breath , Funnel cake, and….Raindrop cake. “Can I have one of each?” She had such a pleasant grin and a glint of fire in her hazel eyes.

“Hello Vivi, it’s good to see you again!” She waved at the other woman. Laney hadn’t seen Vivi since the Fable Festival so it was nice to see her again. She hoped she received the Valentine’s day present she sent.

“Yes, I own a bakery on Arcadia, Mon Cherry. These are special items for today’s festival.” She nodded her head. Of course she wouldn’t turn down sales. She waited and watched for her to make a decision.

Whimsy and wonder always sated his more curious desires. He had ducked into many stalls, enthralled that everyone was so caught up in showing their best wares. It was like they were hanging their hearts on their sleeves– except. Well. They were hanging their hearts on shelves and lines, like fairy lights. It was fascinating. People had such pretty windows into their hearts. Humming to himself, his ears caught the faint sounds of laughter and jingling bells, wondering where they’d guide him next.

And just then– he caught a lovely stall with heavy curtains cascading down front. Those glittery jars and glass potions sung out to him, chiming prettily on their displays. But alas, he had to watch his budget. … … … Well it wouldn’t do him any harm to support a local stall, would it? He’d just have to watch himself and skip away from fanciful indulgences.

In the instance that he caught the eye of the store owner, though, Mikhail’s eyes widened. Oh. 

Oh! It was the sorceress from the tourney. (And the same knight from the Cultural Festival as well…) Excitement bubbled to the surface of his mind, as familiarity set his mind firmly in place. In a sense, he also was biting back a touch of wistfulness. A pinch of worry. But he supposed it wasn’t his place to bring such things up during such a momentous event anyway. Instead, he brought out a genuine smile and a wave. 

She recalled seeing this man before, at the very least Vivi remembered him at the tourney...hugging that one kimono dude along with Laney and her friend. Of course, she never got to see him much more than that considering...ha ha. Did he meant to bring that up? The woman doubted he saw her performance, so she decided to let this comment roll off her sleeve. " Ah yes! I've been nothing but all rainbows and butterflies here, my dude." Is that what the cool kids say these days? Vivi never cared too much for linguistics. Though...all she could think about with the tourney was about him. Gale.

Stupid.

“!!!!!!!!” Vivi had decided to take a quick break to do some quick shopping,(and to scope the completion, she wanted to make sure she had fair and just prices.) then the most fabulous scent had graced the witch’s nose. 

PIE! SWEET, SWEET, DELICIOUS PIE!!! They even had her favorites, blackberry and pumpkin! Vivi was so delighted and moved to tears by seeing them. She just had to have them. “I’ll take the rest of the pumpkin and blackberry, please!”

Upon spotting those tears, concern for this stranger standing at his booth stirred within Porcoline. “Uh. Oh no. Is something the matter, miss…?”

“Oh!” Never mind, apparently they were just tears of pie-induced joy. False alarm. “Yes, right away~ I take it you’re very fond of those flavors? You have fantastic taste!” Sadly, there was only one pumpkin remaining, but at least he still had three blackberry pies. He stacked the four of them up and set them inside a large paper bag.

Potion necklaces:  1200 G 5 QTY Aren’t these cute? Well I made these myself, using crushed four leaf clovers and unicorn tears. They have boons cast upon them and will surely bring the wearer some good luck. 

Same hat : 5000 G  3 QTY Ever wanted to have a neat hat? Or pretend you’re a witch or warlock?! Well now go and live your dungeons and dragons dreams with these! Unfortunately, wearing this won’t grant you any magical spells…but you can look cool while LARPing! 

Shimmering Star Cloak:  15,000 G 1 QTY Ever wanted to blend in with the stars? Well boy, I got the cloak for you! This piece actually is handcrafted by elves from ages ago. The silky gold thread shimmers in both the sunlight and moonlight and would sure lead the wearer back home should they wish.

Kek. She'll show him extraordinary service!

"Why hello Wizard~~🌟" There was a skip in her step as she made her way forward to her long time rival. Looking at the objects he chose for the taking, the witch hummed in her reply. " Oh the potion and the stars then? Well- that will be 1700g!"

The arrival of Vivi after so much time off made Maerwen’s eyes widen, and she dropped her tray to her side as she hurried over to see her. “Vivi, hello.” But before she could ask how she was feeling, she sprang immediately into excitement, words spilling from her lips as she craned over the sweets.

Very much like Vivi, really. Maerwen softened, lips quirking as she turned to stand next to her, also looking at the sweets on offer.

“Mm. Well, if you can’t make a decision, I suppose you’ll have to buy them all, won’t you?” She peeked at her from the corner of her eye, finally letting the smile spread. Would Vivi even realize she was being teased? There was no telling. But it would be interesting all the same.

Vivi looked lost while contemplating, until she heard Miss Maerwen speak up about buying all of them. The witch wishes she could, but with what money? She still had to pay off a debt to some crazy one eyed man who claimed to know somebody she once knew...

“Thank you~  ☆ “

“Hello! Welcome!” she greeted as people walked by. Laney was a tad bit late in setting up her booth but it was all worth it. These items were specially made, for a special occasion. The Founding Celebration of course! What better way to show her pride than to sell a few treats? To shake things up a little, she decided to have a few treats with special effects. “Let me know if there’s anything I can help you with!” 

Porcoline was a little fashionably late in getting his bazaar booth set up. But it was all according to plan. In opening his booth on this particular day, he could honor not just one, but two special occasions. The 14th of March was a day that some informally observed as a celebration of the mathematical constant π. And what better way to celebrate than with a humorous homophone?

He had baked away into the wee hours and made sure each and every one of his pies were perfect. In the time he got them out of the kitchen and into the bazaar, Porcoline sampled a bit of his stock. Let’s just say it was, er, quality control. That way, he was able to assure his customers that his pies were all, without a doubt, mathematically delicious.

“!!!!!!!!” Vivi had decided to take a quick break to do some quick shopping,(and to scope the completion, she wanted to make sure she had fair and just prices.) then the most fabulous scent had graced the witch’s nose. 

…..Just how much more things will you buy, Aurelia?

“B-Boyfriend? N-No, o-of course not! I-I don’t h-have one of those!” Violet replied immediately, red blooming across her cheeks. Sure, she had a date with Marlin soon, but surely they weren’t official official from one upcoming date! Plus, he would surely be disappointed in the date and not ask for another. Still, the very idea of someone thinking she was dating anyone made her cheeks burn.

“U-Um…t-that’s 200G…” Violet hesitantly stuttered out.

“Uh huh. Sure Jan-” Her arms were crossed, whilst Vivi was amused by just watching the little lady’s reactions. “That look on your face means you’re guilty. G. U. L. I. T. Y.  But don’t worry, I won’t make you spill the beans- it’s not my business to know the truth after all.” Actually, she was supposed to keep tabs on someone for work, but the writer doesn’t want to be that meta and have her say she’s thinking of the person that this stand lady is going on a date with soon. Vivi cheekily chuckled, drawing back from the tease.

“Vivi~” Popuri clasped her hands together, excited to see one of the guild members at her booth. She did her best to know everyone, but it could be hard when you were the Guildmaster. 

Even if she didn’t know her very well, that didn’t mean they couldn’t be friends! “It’s only 1,000G. You get entered for the raffle with a purchase, too~” She patted the entry box affectionately.

“U-Um…I-I h-have t-to…u-um…meet someone…?” Violet stuttered out a very obvious lie, a little too flustered to even look the least bit convincing. Still, she paused, standing frozen behind her booth while keeping her eyes on the ground. Unfortunately, her desire to not be rude was overtaking her desire to flee far away from the woman who cursed her. She looked around for anyone she knew to potentially help her out, but saw no familiar faces.
