Where: Out and about in the bubble or the island
Style: Starting in action, but I'll follow your lead
Status: Open

[Dualscar's taken careful notice of this curse, and is pretty sure what it's all about - and that he's not affected. As a highblood troll, it would be practically unconscionable for him not to take advantage of this opportunity.

He may be deliberately visiting your character - if you're someone he knows - or it could be a chance meeting. Either way, he may be trying to ferret out information. Or there might not be anything in particular that he cares to know.]

[Hang on, what? His fins flick back in shock] They don't?

[aim_exorable]

[Darkleer notes with some amusement the positioning of the fins as he returns to the living space, a tray with tea in hand. As he sets it down, he gives a shake of his head.]

No, most generally don't. A few seem to, but they're the humans who play the same game as our children have.

[devwocean]

Howw do they survvivve wwithout bein' able to carry anythin' around?

[Dualscar's been here a year and hasn't actually discovered this. Though he's hung around with a few humans, it's never come up]

[aim_exorable]

...I assume they use bags and their hands. You know. Like we do when our sylladice are full.

[Inconvenient, yes, but not mindblowing. Then again, who knows how much captchalogue cards seadweller kids are granted growing up.]

[devwocean]

Huh. So inconvvenient. [He looks at Darkleer] I can't imagine howw they livve like that, but I guess that's wwhy they'll be comin' to you for your wwares.

[aim_exorable]

[Oh yeah, he could sell them.. He guesses. He's not much of an entrepreneur, unless it means dragging out favors from people he doesn't quite trust.]

Yes, I've already had a few individuals express interest in them before. When things quiet down, I'll try and gauge the city wide interest.

[devwocean]

Wwhen's it evver quiet? Anywway, you're best off just askin' wwhen people can't lie about it.

[aim_exorable]

On occasion. Also, that seems silly. Who would lie about wanting a device like this?

[devwocean]

[Sigh] Not that they'd lie! But you could dicker far better ovver the price wwhen they can't prevvaricate, right?

[aim_exorable]

I suppose you could, yes. Honestly, it hadn't even occurred to me about the price. I prefer having people in my debt.

[devwocean]

Wwell... that's also a good wway to do it.

[aim_exorable]

I would say that I'm glad I have your approval, but it would be a statement of sarcasm and untruth, and thus not something I can do while this curse is in effect.

[devwocean]

I can see you still manage sarcasm, anywway, though.

[aim_exorable]

Well, it is still the truth regardless if it is a sarcastic statement or not.

So, I take it that you are using this curse to your full advantage?

[devwocean]

A course I am. Did you think a troll like myself wwouldn't take advvantage a an opportunity as good as this?

[aim_exorable]

Not really. Thus my lack of surprise.

[devwocean]

Wwell, there you are! [He's totally unrepentant, too.]
