A foot with a long leather boot ending just below the knee blocks Lilly's passage from table to table.

Render salutes Lilly with his mug of ale. He sits back so her way is now clear, but the challenge remains with a raised brow.

"That's a hell of a promise. I don't think you can deliver. What's your price?"

::runs inta an ironbar, tips forward over it, an avoids bein' hit in the back of the head by a pair of shifty eyed, ash covered bats that hit the far wall at top speed instead. Scowls at the pair an straightens up ta find the ironbar is a booted leg::

"Oh, beg yer pardon. How much fer me dewy petals? I can tell when Imma in the big city - always rush rush rush, get ta the point! Well, the price fer me blossoms aren't set in stone if ya know what I mean. I like ta use "Lilly's Point O'Departure Pricing" I ask ye a few questions, an dependin' on yer answers I get a pretty good feel fer how fast Imma gonna feel the urge ta depart yer company. So, ya see, Big City sire, though ye may want me ta name a price, its jus' not that simple."

::blows a strand of hair outta the grip of rose thorns::

"Here's me questions, sire - but afore we start, lemme say that a new customer, no matter how deep me hand has to dive into his coin purse, is always a valued customer.

1. Adventurin' ta you means
a. doin' yer part to put things right.
b. enjoyin' the thrills of dangers faced.
c. gettin' richer.

2. At the end of a grand adventure
a. ya kill everyone an take the loot.
b. ya look fer ways ta help others.
c. ya say goodbye an go yer seperate way ta relax.

3.What kind of weapon do ye use?
a. An axe or a sword
b. ye never use weapons, ya might get hurt
c. ya use yer hands

There they be. Answer at yer leisure, but I'm a business wench, an me petals won't be dewy ferever!"

Render listens to the conditions and the list of questions with a crooked smile and one polite blink.

He leans forward at the end of this and says "The answer to all your questions is "Yes." If I find your hand in my coin purse, you're going to have more "Yes" than you might expect over petals, dewy or not. I might throw in a little "No" for fun."

Render sits back and says "The question, my lady, is not how much I will pay. The question is whether or not you will deliver. You promised love and laughs. At least one love." He holds up one finger. "Multiple laughs, it seems." His fingers on one hand lift one by one and then close into a fist that he rests on his knee to brace himself to lean forward.

He looks around the tavern at the patrons. "I couldn't possibly allow anyone to make promises they can't keep. It just wouldn't be right. These poor people are so drunk they don't know flowers from frigates."

Sidhe or He?

::jumps back at the sudden unfurlin' of ginormous wings!::

OH! I see by yer wings yer a fairy a sorts, sire! I'll tell you, there's been more then one night me cheeks have kept me comfy as I sat in the middle of a toadstool circle, waitin' fer one just such as yerself. Well, maybe not so big, an' maybe more of a sidhe than a he. Me friend Buggery is always goin' on about how he met this fairy an' that fairy, an' right up until this big city tavern, and yer long hard leg I thought he was jus' bein' silly!

::viciously kicks one staggerin' bat crawlin' towards her ankle with a dusty slippered foot. A second scurries back towards the wall it jus' peeled itself off of::

Now here's abit a somethin' that ya probably already know. But as a service ta the ladies and not so ladylike of this tavern Imma gonna tell them why they should buy me blossoms an' look on the bright side a things. Here tis, Lilly's Fairy Facts:

"...Fresh flowers an' laughin' are the best ways of attractin' fairies to ya fer each an every flower has its own fairy an' each tear that tickles its way down yer face that's caused by laughin' makes a new fairy..."

Buggery's always laughin' an' cryin', sometimes I've seen him step on his own foot with ta other, just to bring on the tears. He be an odd fellow. Happy though. Very happy!

As fer love, it starts as a dance, and yer balance better be pretty good, sire. Do fairies have rhythm? Buggery never said...

This flower be yer's, sire. No charge.

::pulls a lush petaled lily from out of the roses and lavender::

An' now I see I've got ladies a plenty wantin' ta buy me flowers. Musta been me Fairy Facts talk!

Render sits back with his lips barely able to hold still, nodding with one brow arching a little higher with each sentence. Wincing slightly at the kicking of the bat, he considers Buggery for a moment before listening to the mangling of the history of the Fae.

He thinks once and his mouth opens. He thinks twice and it shuts again. He smiles and accepts the Lily from Lilly with grace and a soft "Thank you."

"My condolances to Buggery, his ailments, and the company he keeps. I'm sure you'll pass those along in the spirit as intended."

He tucks the lily into his lapel and smiles again, ushering Lilly along to speak to her other customers with one arm extended.

Turning back to the table, his eyebrows raise together once and then back down to their usual perch. He takes a deep breath and then a deep pull from his ale, gesturing to the bartender to ready him another.

(Glances up from staring at the thick wooden table, he glances through the haze of the smoky tavern to let his eyes settle on the long winded flower peddler. For a brief moment, he thinks about throwing the flowers out the window but decides it not the most prudent of ways)
