week 2

[One week down and (if the Alchemist's promise is to be believed) just three more to go. In the past week royalty has been bullied, explicitly non-Satanic chairs were ordered and you began the pact-bonding process with your new proprietor of mercantile wares, ✨Garfield the Deals Warlock✨.

All in all, a surprisingly good week despite the kidnapping and looming threat of death. We'll see how long that lasts.


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

WEEKLY DEALS
1. The Cloak of Duplication - An ancient vampiric artifact, when worn it changes your appearance and voice to perfectly mimic another individual of your choosing. (You still have to sell the act, though.) [5 coins] SOLD
2. The Battle Axe of Hatred - A sick as hell electric guitar with an energy that feels like it is powered by the screaming of an ancient and evil lord- or at least once was. It has a signature on the body that simply says "Ron" and looks like it might have been written in blood. [5 coins]
3. The Jable - Put down your keys and stay a while. [2 coins]


LEFTOVER STOCK AT 50% MARK-UP
1. The Tingler - The whole hand tingles from wearing this ring, as if more blood rushes through the area. [2 coins]
2. Christine Jr. - A tiny red convertible. It's powered by pedals like a bicycle, with a steering wheel. For some reason it makes you think of old men in silly hats. [6 coins]



(( OOC: Don't forget to submit your orders for any threads that aren't with the Alchemist or Garfield! The Alchemist and Garfield both have "office hours" now so feel free to reach out to them. The compact functions have also been updated and don't forget activity check!

This week is where the real game begins, so get in your regains and CR while you can. >:3 ))

[...you know, if he wasn't even at least a little invested in the idea of getting into a sparring match, he wouldn't be here.

So you know.]


Well, why not? I suppose it could not hurt overmuch to keep in practice.
draconite: (lynseybryn017)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-03-28 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly!

[ She pumps her fists and bounces up and down on her heels, absolutely brimming with excited energy. ]

I should warn you, I'm much stronger than you might think!
guffawsungraciously: a VERY smug lean back. (your best friend.)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-03-29 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I have learned not to assume anything of my opponents based on appearances.

[He looks over the training swords and picks up two of the same length, then gives a nod.]

Go for your weapon of choice, then, as much as these could count.
draconite: (excited | why pretend that it isn't true)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-03-30 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm...

[ Bryn looks over all the weapons, her nose still scrunched up to convey just how unimpressed she is – then she turns her face back to Jasper with a bright if foreboding smile. ]

Would you object to me forgoing a weapon altogether and taking you on barehanded?
guffawsungraciously: kind of a smile! it's probably about something horrible, but maybe it isn't. (i'm taking a ride with my best friend)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-03-31 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Hm.

[He ponders a moment, before nodding and then getting into stance.]

Well, I do have some adversaries who fight barehanded... very well, then. I welcome the challenge.
draconite: (smile | even the one i love most)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-03-31 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohoh! Are you quite sure?

[ She cracks her knuckles, as if to emphasize the question. ]

I'll give you an opportunity to withdraw if you're not as confident as you appear!
guffawsungraciously: smug, but goth now. (i'm evil now.)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-03-31 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no intention of backing down. Do your worst, then.

[he will probably regret this.]
draconite: (declare | maybe you're killing someone)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-04-01 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm. Very well, then! But don't say that I didn't warn you.

[ And with that, she's darting forward as fast as her feet can carry her to just... aim a sucker punch right to his stomach. She never said she'd fight fair. ]
guffawsungraciously: jasper is smiling very smugly and perhaps looking down on someone, even though he is probably shorter than them. (big knifecat energy)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-04-01 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fortunately for Jasper, he's also pretty fast, so he can cross his swords in front of him to try and parry that punch! He does smirk, though, because he understood what she was going for.]

What, no honor in sparring?

[He's going to try and push her back and dodge to the side so he can try and get a hit in at her back!]
draconite: (bloodthirst | so don't be so inclined)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-04-03 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
When did either of us say a thing about honor?

[ Not that she seems displeased at all – she's got a pretty good stance, so she's able to stay steadier than most might have done. But Jasper's quicker than her and she can't twist around fast enough to stop him getting a strike at her back.

Well, if he's going to stay there, she'll jab her elbow back to try and strike his gut. You know, honorably and stuff. ]
guffawsungraciously: a somewhat confused look. (who is this... sassy lost child?)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-04-04 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, there are certainly those who would assume.

[He sounds approving that she isn't!

...up until he takes an elbow to the gut... it's at least not the sort of thing that would completely take him out, but it does cause him to try and do a little backflip so he can put more distance between the two of them.]
draconite: (? | all villains)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-04-04 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Ah-

[ okay, evidently she wasn't expecting that level of maneuverability because it throws her for enough of a loop that she doesn't even try to pursue him. ]

You can't tell me you use those sorts of acrobatics in a fight!
guffawsungraciously: the sort of look that you expect someone to wear while setting up a huge asshole move in a multiplayer game (and i'm having such a good time right no)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-04-04 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Why not? After all, maneuverability is important—

[and he’ll use the opportunity to try and dart back in close and aim a strike at her flank.]

—as is surprising your opponent, clearly.
draconite: (lynseybryn017)

[personal profile] draconite 2022-04-04 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't get too cocky!

[ She's not fast enough to stop him, but when she realizes he's going to strike at her side, she's happy to take the blow – especially since it's in service of her grabbing at the sword and giving a huge tug to try and yank it right out of his hands. ]
guffawsungraciously: a somewhat confused look. (who is this... sassy lost child?)

[personal profile] guffawsungraciously 2022-04-04 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[holy shit, okay, he's going to try and tug back and maybe see if he can shake Byrn off, but as much as he's a cool demon now he's not that physically strong.

So fuck it he's going to try and kick at her!]
