[Early in the afternoon, Shelly heads down to the lower district as a continuation of a long due exploration. While she's at it, perhaps she can see how effective products from the Nostalgia Nook are. Given the epidemic a while back, how about, say, a panacea for a test run?

The Great Lamufao has other things in mind, apparently, and Shelly stares long and hard at what she just accidentally spent her tokens on.]

. . . You're kidding me. You're giving me that?

[So Shelly returns to the Middle District with a whole new(?) pancreas of her own. Some deity, couldn't it have given it to her in a jar or something? She's going to need new gloves -- not to mention the smell.

But not now. Not when she looks out and one modest building catches her eyes. Peering over the potted plants through the window, she hums.]

A salon . . .

[She's just that boss.]

You say that as though you're afraid it'll jump up and maul your face.

[redcloakedthief]

How long have you been here?

Because to be honest, I wouldn't trust anything from that coral.

[ex_diplomacy861]

Not very long, I admit . . . So this is from the coral. I'd suspected as much.

[redcloakedthief]

It isn't that impressive of a deduction. Where else would you get an organ from?

...without cutting it out of someone, I mean.

[ex_diplomacy861]

The clinic? But I see your point, and cutting something out of someone is one of the last things I ever plan to do.

[redcloakedthief]

[Snerk.]

You might give someone the opposite impression if you go around carrying livers.

[ex_diplomacy861]

Fair enough. I'd like to see the looks on their faces, at the least, for the entertainment value.

[redcloakedthief]

[...heh.]

The look of terror and disgust on their faces?

I like the way you think.

[ex_diplomacy861]

Of course! A good scare once in a while is worth the effort and time.

[redcloakedthief]

...Hey, what's your name, anyway?

[He totally agrees--]

[ex_diplomacy861]

Shelly Greenhill. Yours?

[redcloakedthief]

You can call me Matthew.

Well then, Shelly Greenhill. Until next time.

[A mock salute and he...strolls away.

Yeah.]

[ex_diplomacy861]

[Matthew.

Right. She'll remember that.]

. . . until then.
