I8DT: Restoratives!

Postby Trini Thompson » Tue Nov 29, 2011 4:41 pm

Meanwhile Kim was buzzing around, trying to get people to look at the stand because Raven's potions, like, totes work for real!

"You need to, like, give away some samples or something to show they work 'cause everyone's all 'This is silly'." she haughtily mocks the unbelievers.

Indeed, a blonde-haired girl was raising a skeptical eyebrow at their table even then.

"The telly?" Raven said, lost. "I don't know what this is, but no viruses here! This is, like, ANTI-viruses! Like, the opposite and stuff!"

Cal, meanwhile, had walked up and was looking things over skeptically. HAL, do I have Valley girl translation?

Code: Select all
Like, what?


I hate you.

"Hey there, Calvin." She said, before looking back to the girl.

"Well I'm not really sure if I'm into health food."

"Hey, those are some funky glasses! You checking out the stand? She has potions for, like, everything! You totally need to go take a look, it's, like, totally amazing!" Kim bounces up to Cal who made the mistake of looking remotely interested.

"All right," Cal said, "I'll bite. What do you have?"

As he spoke, five tiny robots scaled the legs of the table to get a closer look at the wares.

And, as usual, cellphones in the vicinity began beeping.

Excited statement: We're pretty!
Correction: Californian-descended female is pretty
Excited ammendment: We're all pretty
Tactical assessment: Subject classification: 'witch.' Recommendation: Apply water.
Query: Is this unit still invisible?

Anyway, you were saying?" she said, totally lost.

"Oh, it's all natural ingredients," she said, nodding to Janice.

"It depends!" she said, to Calvin. "But, I was FIGURING, right? Since all those people are, like, coming back and stuff? They might need some, like, energy! Or some things to help sooth their chakras! But I can make all KINDS of things."

"That? That's the...

DROUGHT OF LIVING DEATH..." she said, in a spooky voice (or, well, something approximating one).

"It's a sleep aid!"

Cal gave her a look as he looked at the bottle. I'm a robot at Hogwarts now. "Can I open it to take a look?" he asked.

"Go right ahead! But if you drink it, you've bought it!"

"Oh, I am not the one who named them. It's been, like, totally passed down from time immemorial and stuff."

"I know I sure don't remember anything earlier than the late nineties," Cal deadpanned as he opened the bottle, pouring a tiny drop onto his cyber-finger. HAL? Check toxicity, please.

It certainly wasn't toxic; it'd hardly be passed from time immemorial if it was!

"Was there something in particular you were looking for? Something, like, you're totally having troubles with? Like, some inner spiritual turmoil perhaps? Feelings of cosmic and like mystical unease? Bad acne?"

Janice pondered for a moment, and eventually decided it didn't matter if it was real angst.

"They do? Wow, really?" she said, excited. "A potion could work of course, but THAT sounds like a job for some smudges! Or some incense!"
