Doze's antique shop (Doze's dated Objects)

*Toni whispers to Eridan*
Eridan is there a place nearby where we discuss matters more privately?

yeah thanks that great
my handle is caligulasaquarium or you can ask around at the marina if you need me
see ya

*Turns to Toni*

the street maybe this side of towwn is pretty quiet
wwhy wwhat is it

We will meet again Mister Ampora. It was a pleasure to make buisness with you.

After saying that Doze remembered something important.

Before I forget: My own chumhan2le is "adagioTwo".

I'll tell you once we leave this store.
*Toni heads outside*

noted

*Possibly having already frogotten Doze's handle, Eridan follows Toni into the streets*

((Do we just keep going here or should we move to a different thread now?))

Doze looked at his new acquisitions. He updated his books, gave the new pieces numbers, stored them at the right place and wrote notes about who he could call to sell those objects.
Except the Book of Science which he kept on his person and would as soon as possible begin to find a way to open it.

*once the robot and eridan are gone a small female carapace wanders out from behind a table laden with objects, she is holding a soft toy in the shape of a sand timer*

((Low key is that who I think it is cuz if so I'm hype as fuck))

(i have no idea who you mean *innocent look*))

The slow Leprechaun was examining the book. He wasn't able to open it and made a quick search on his computer for more Info.
But after a while he was noticed the little child.
He didn't remember her coming in.

Hi?

*the young carapace seems to not notice and browses the items on the table she appeared from behind*

*the girl looks up*

O hai mister, no i think you are a bit too slow to help me, i could probably search the entire shop by the time you could tell me if you have what im looking fore

*she smiles widely and moves to another table*

Doze shook his head and sighed.
He kept a professional voice.

I may be a little slower than other people but I still know this shop better than anyone else young la2y. Name what you search, if I have it I can say you where it is locate2.

sorry did you say something? it was so slow all i heard is a drawl, wow being so slow must be really unhelpful

*the girl says, without looking up from the table, she now moves to another table*

Doze breathed freely a few times. The girl had catched him off guard and now he had trouble to control his ability. He calmed down, stoped the time slowing for himself and answered.

I know that. But I'm surely not unhelpful. I can help you if you ask for it

Family?
Did she know about the Organisation he belonged too?
Mafia was sometimes called a "Family", was she refering to that?
Or the fact that he was one of Nepetas 14 surrogate Fathers?
Whatever it was this girl was either pretty rude or was more than meet the eye.

I may not be that useful in activities in which spee2 is a key factor but I have other qualities like my abilities as a antiquar.

Doze leaned forward and eyed the little girl.

But who are you little girl? You know an awful lot but I 2on't kow anything about you. Who are you?

oh im no one special, i just happen to be good at finding things out, like why you want that book so badly

*she says, gesturing at the science book*

and i might know a way of fast tracking, if you pardon the pun, your goal

Are you are 2evil? A 2emon?

It felt like that she came from a story in which a poor sod would sell his soul to the devil for some temporary happiness. But they never seem to consider the eternity in hell and all the torture and pain that comes along with it for some reason.
He also knew that the Devil had many forms.

If you want my soul forget it.

*the girl laughs*

a devil? oh dear me mister im no devil, and who would want your soul? nono i am merely suggesting a trade, something i am sure you could understand being such a...... competent business leprechaun

*the girl backs away from doze*

just something for you to think about, until next time mister

*the girl passes behind a table and breaks line of sight with doze*

Hey, wait!

Doze kept his powers in check and was able to walk to the place he assumed the girl without being slower as a drunk snail.

*the girl is not there*

Doze rubbed his chin. Were did that little girl go?
He knew that he wouldn't rush a deal with a strange entity.
Also he had a lot of other resources he knew he could use to open this powerful book before doing something that unusual and new for him.
He walked back to his counter and continued his research to open the book of science.

Itchy speeds in, knocking over fine china and clocks with his bags of coffee.
DOZE! HOLY FUCK!
Itchy pauses and looks at the mess he made.
Oh, uh, sorry about that.
