Love potions, anyone?

While listening to the stranger beginning to talk about the wares she is currently selling, he- well… Didn’t notice the sign that mentioned health potions and… When bringing up the one potion that Zhongli actually reached out for to take a better look at, he wasn’t expecting the woman to suddenly tell him that kind of information. 

The god perked at the mention of needing help in a bed and it took him only a few seconds to register what she meant and he did, indeed, almost drop the vile in response to that. He certainty did not need help in any way nor form and that topic isn’t something he has much interest in to begin with.  Is he blushing? Maybe just a tad bit… He forced a few fake coughs and took a large step away from that section now as he felt like a complete fool for not reading first.

However before he could speak of anything else to change the topic, the woman actually took the lead as she leads him elsewhere. Noticing the index gesture of her hand, he watched her walk over to one other sections of the store and plucked another vile and he made sure to read the next sign just in case too as he soon followed over. It started to become clear to him that, this mystery seller, is not of this world and is in fact, another outlander.

                                   She also seemed to figure out just what he is too…?

“A special perfume…?” Zhongli repeated as he eyed the vile in her hand. Reminiscing, huh? That word alone made him think about some moments in his old life. Some weren’t so great and others were. He was almost tempted to just try this without thinking but he managed to stop himself from leaning forward to do so. His own hesitation had begun to hold him back, he didn’t look like it but the idea of remembering certain events started to scare him.

              “I… ahem. What or how exactly does this work?”                                              Some memories were best left forgotten.

Catching the hesitation, Urd’s expression soften. She’d tried to use her words carefully, as to be clear that the potion didn’t stir up bad memories. It’d be bad for bussiness if she had customers try such a potion without full consent (except any assholes who found their way here were hit with some just desserts). The tall gentleman didn’t seem like that type.

“It’s sweet and gentle arouma is designed to bring forth memories of good times.” The Goddess began, bringing the vial up to her own nose. “Memories that help lift the spirit.” She took a small inhale above the opening, and her face instantly relaxed. 

Immediately the memory of meeting her sister, Belldany, was brought up in her mind. But it was from the younger Goddess’s point of view. Urd felt the excitement that Bell felt about meeting her new older sister; seeing herself through her sister’s eyes cause the eldest Norn to close her eye and let out a soft hum. 

Within the city of Liyue, there are many shops of all different kinds, Zhongli had always travel these streets for many long years, among the mortals and now choosing to live along side them, he had been more then able to explore the city even further. His face had become a common sight for many months now and the archon knew this city as if it is the back of his own hand!

However, coming across a door he had never seen before, attached to a building wall that he had walked pass many a time, it cause him pause at the sight and made him wonder- how did he not noticed this door before? This had already begun to put the man into thoughts as he took a moment to look around himself to spot if anyone else had noticed. Most of the folks around him didn’t seem to either noticed nor mind so…

He begins to approach the door and open it. A sudden bell rung once doing so and Zhongli couldn’t help but to blink a few times, looking up as he takes his first step inside the store and… He immediately noticed the difference between this shop and the other shops in Liyue. First thing he spotted was the racks and rows of different kinds of bottles with names written on them. The second thing, which- should’ve been really the first thing, was the change of aura in the room.

His eyes quickly landed upon a woman greeting him behind the register counter and his new mystery question of where this powerful aura is coming from, it appeared that it is actually this woman. Still, he should probably greet the employee regardless if they gave off such a feat or not. With a charming smile, he makes his way over before stopping and begins to greet the other. 

                  “Good evening.”                                                 He took a moment to look around again.

“Quite the interest items of displays you have here.” He commented right after, turning towards a bottle nearby. It had an interesting design and a shade of color within, it made him quite puzzle as too what it is and what it does. More importantly, Zhongli should be questioning the woman’s wares as he started to get the idea that this isn’t just any normal store in Liyue. “However, this would be my first time here so I’m unsure what I should looking for…” If he should even buy anything from here, that is.

As soon as the gentleman had stepped through her door, the Goddess could sense the power and age he held. Her eyes were caught by the gorgeous design of his clothing, the colours complimenting each other so well. Nice taste, she thought to herself, would love to know who his stylist is. 

“Why thank you, kind sir. My potions are certainly top of the class in any world.” Casually leaning on the counter, she gestured to range with a proud air. Was the claim true? Who knows, it was a Russian Roulette with the Norns handmade concoctions. At least over time, they have become more reliable, and she tests them carefully before adding them to the store. 

A white eyebrow quirks ever so slightly as she recognised the potion he was examining in his hands. Curious that he’d headed straight to the “Health” section and picked up that potion. He didn’t seem the type to need it. But then looks can be deceiving...

“Well, if you’re looking for some help in the bed, that potion would do nicely if you’re lacking in a certain size.” Coming around the counter with a michievious smile, the white haired lady walked over to him and plucked the potion from his hand; just in case the contents of it would disturb the well dressed and mannered man enough to drop it.  Now being up next to the tall man, Urd took a moment to read him. Immediately his eyes struck her as different, pretty, but not human. Just like the read she got on him when he first entered. Gracefully pulling back, the Goddess beckoned him with a finger.
