The Park, Saturday Afternoon

Sep 26, 2009 08:08

It had been a few months, but it was time again. Workers had pulled together to put up some booths around the park, while picnic tables were dusted off and extra seats put down. Finally, they busied themselves over the banner, hanging it between two trees, announcing to all and sundry that the market... was back in session.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz adjusted the dial on his Jingle-inator to get it juuuuuust right... there! Now everyone who looked at his cart would hear "Doofenshmirtz's Quality Braaaaatwursts" sung to his tune. Inside their MINDS! Was that a great invention or what?

He sighed contentedly. "Ahhhhhh... This is the life. Not evil -- well, not AS evil -- but simpler. Nicer. Miles away from Danville -- miles? Lots of miles. Maybe even a furlong. Anyway, where was I? Oh, yes. MILES away from Danville, and the Tri-State Area, my JERK of a brother, and my ex-wife, and Vanessa -- I mean, I LIKE Vanessa, but you know how teenage daughters can get. They're just a handful, and it's tiring, and... I got off-topic again." He sighed again. "Anyway, it's just me and my bratwurst cart. And the BEST part is, NO Perry the Platypus to foil my evil scheme!"

He looked around expectantly. "...I said, NO Perry the Platypus to foil my evil scheme!!!"

He frowned and looked around more. "Where is Perry the Platypus, anyway?"

Silk was in a slightly grumbly mood. Conditions on the road had delayed him and he was late in setting up his booth. But he soon recovered his good humor upon reflection that he'd no doubt meet some interesting people, and likely pick up some nifty items.

Soon, a moddable selection of fine cloths, exotic spices, and fun nick knacks were arranged on the table before him.

For when a Spider pings on in.

And, indeed, along came a Spider -- a rather tall and slim one, wearing a crimson-and-black leather coat and black leather leggings that seemed completely at home on his frame. He leaned back on his chair intermittently, at such an angle that it looked inevitable that he would tip backward, though he never did.

On the table in front of him, there was an assortment of bits and bobs -- tangled antique jewelry in a box here, a crate of old records there, a rack of vintage clothes to one side, a selection of outdated appliance at the far left.

An unusually thorough inspection would reveal several small black spiders under the table, busily, happily spinning webs. Spider might take a moment to say hello.

Dinah wandered through the racks, looking at this and that; a old gold necklace with purple stones, a butterfly pin in colored glass. A set of dangling amber earrings, and a silver picture frame with baroque scrollwork. She stopped at a rack of sunglasses, and tried a few on, mugging in front of a mirror, trying out movie star poses.

"You could be in pictures," Spider said. he'd been just watching, but she'd been mugging for long enough that it seemed to warrant a greeting. "Hello there, girl!"

For when CMOT brings his sausages-in-a-bun to the table! Or the ping.

The man at the booth seemed to be your typical shifty salesman. Greasy hair, a rodent-like face, and long poacher's coat were the details most obvious to someone who approached. But his voice, oh his voice, that sounded like it could charm the skin off a snake, if he tried.

Currently, the man had on display several bottles of 'Soggy Mountain Dew', an odd green liquid. Next to that were a series of meat pies. 'Pies with Personality' he'd call them.

And in the cooker he had behind the booth, well, that was easy. He was announcing it to the world.

"Sausages! Inna bun!"

Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler was out for the sale.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz narrowed his eyes at Dibbler. "YOUUUUU," he growled angrily. "What KIND of sausages are those?"

It was a good thing they weren't actually called "hot dogs" in Dibbler's world, because that was helping avoid a throwdown. Hot dog vendors were the reason he'd STOPPED selling bratwurst, all those years ago.

"That's a trade secret, that is," Dibbler said, with a huff of pride. "You looking to steal my recipes? Sharing that, that'd be cutting me own throat, and not in a good way, sir."

For Fandom's own Aphrodite and her... balloons. When they ping in. ... We don't necessarily require the balloons to ping in. We assume they're there.

Aphrodite was humming as she organized her market booth. Leaving behind the more intimate of her products, she set up a display for leather jackets, leather vests, robes for men and women, lotions, oils, bath salts, and edible body paints. She'd been going for discreet, but couldn't resist including a small selection of bullet vibes and a case of condoms.

It was actually a rather tame display for Decadent Delights, but that didn't mean the goddess couldn't zap up something rather wild if you asked for it.

Spider took a break from his stall to wander to another, lingering before the various elements before pausing at the display of leather clothes.

"Now this," he told the lovely woman who seemed to be working there, "all looks like the ingredients for a good time."

She grinned at her first customer, wrinkling her nose with delight.

"Oh, I totally agree. Having a good time is what Dite's Decadent Delights is all about!" The goddess of love bounced forward and held out her hand. "I'm 'Dite. Are you new to our little island?"
