Excuse me! I'm looking for a salt shaker, a packet of seeds, and a mummified foot. Can you help me?

(what's that in your pocket? it's a list from a scavenger hunt! and it promises great rewards if you finish it!)

I'm afraid I'm only able to help you with one of those items.

[pinged4treasure]

*looks at for a long moment*

...It's the foot, right? No offense, but ew.

[fomicrymeariver]

If you'd rather be picky about it, then I suppose I'll take my business elsewhere.

[pinged4treasure]

I never said I didn't want it! Gimme! *hands out for expectantly*

So how'd you get it?

[fomicrymeariver]

[handing over a foot in a sterile hospital container :Db]

Oh, you know. The usual. Spring cleaning in the morgue.

[pinged4treasure]

Again, ew. So is it from your world? Since people can't die here, that is.

[fomicrymeariver]

I haven't the slightest where it originated.

[pinged4treasure]

*considering look at the jar*

...Well, I guess the list didn't say where it had to be from. So it really doesn't matter. My prize better not be the rest of this guy, though.

[fomicrymeariver]

Who knows? Perhaps he needed a friend. Many have created more elaborate ruses to obtain companionship.

[pinged4treasure]

You're one of those mad scientist guys, aren't you?

[fomicrymeariver]

Oh, no. I'm merely a drive-by philanthropist.

[pinged4treasure]

Really? You kind of have that look. But I can't say you haven't been helpful to me, so thanks. ♥

[fomicrymeariver]

Is that so? I would say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but more often than not that's a decent approximation.

You're quite welcome. And oh, no, I couldn't accept your indentured servitude for a week in return. That's too much.

[pinged4treasure]

I thought you--wait what?! You're right you couldn't accept my indentured servitude! I'm a busy girl! I've got other things to do than be some guy's slave!

[fomicrymeariver]

I never mentioned anything about slavery. Don't go offering up asinine ideas, someone might take you up on them.

[pinged4treasure]

.....

...Right. Um. I'm just going to put this away in my bag. I don't suppose you know where I can find a packet of seeds?
