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.

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."

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 19:16:04 UTC

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?"

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights anansi_son September 26 2009, 19:22:27 UTC

"Just passing through town to sell a few trinkets," he said, gesturing vaguely to his own stall. "Dite? It's lovely to meet you. Call me Spider."

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 20:10:34 UTC

"Well, it's so nice to meet you Spider. I'll have to stop by your booth later, see what kind of trinkets you have." She gestured to her own display. "See anything that catches your eye? Oh!" Aphrodite's eyes lit up. "I have this wonderful leather jacket that would look so great on you!"

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights anansi_son September 26 2009, 20:18:31 UTC

"Better than the one I have on?" Spider asked, already shrugging out of his crimson-and-black motorcycle jacket. "I always like to take advice from a pretty lady."

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 20:46:22 UTC

Smiling, Aphrodite opened a box and lifted several jackets out before finding the one she was looking for. "Ohhhh, yes."

Instead of crimson, the black leather coat had subtle shadings of a dark purple from the shoulders down the arms, beginning as a thin line and slowly flaring out at the cuffs. The same dark purple shading circled the waist of the jacket in an undulating ribbon and the neck had a Mandarin style snap.

"Now, I've always liked the subtle shades of this jacket, but when you told me your name, this is the reason it came to mind." She pointed to a small patch on the left side of the jacket, where a small purple spider had been carefully sewn in. His eyes had been done in red thread.

"What d'you think?"

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights anansi_son September 26 2009, 20:56:31 UTC

"I need to try it on," Spider said, pupils dilating in pleasure. He tugged the jacket on. As he did, some subtle alchemy made the fit that much more perfect, the purple that much bolder. Like the original jacket, it looked like it had been made for him.

He spun. "What do you think?"

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 21:00:03 UTC

Folding her arms, Aphrodite smiled and nodded. "Perfect." She'd noticed the subtle changes as it conformed to him, but this was Fandom, and stranger things had happened.

"I think you found your new color. Red's nice, but in purple, you're a prince." She winked at him.

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights anansi_son September 26 2009, 21:05:21 UTC

Stranger things happened around Spider twice a day. Fandom just might mean sometimes people noticed.

Spider laughed. "I'll have to start wearing more purple. Can't hurt to pass as royalty."

Sophie was wandering through the park's booths, considering if this would be a good idea for next month for the gallery, and had to stop at Aphrodite's stall, considering the oils and lotions and bath salts. Everything one would need for a delightful night in. Hmmm...

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 20:14:25 UTC

"Well, if it isn't my favorite gallery ownerrr." 'Dite tilted her head, regarding Sophie with a wry grin. "See anything you like? By the way, I've had several really good comments on the series I bought. Thank you for bringing them to my attention."

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights magdaofslovenia September 26 2009, 20:17:03 UTC

"You're quite welcome. I'm so glad you're still happy with them," Sophie said, smiling at 'Dite. "If I see something similar, I'll be sure to give you a call... hmm. I'm trying to decide between the mint, and the chocolate salts." She sniffed at one jar, smiling. "Something that goes together with the body oils would be wonderful."

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights divinesurfchick September 26 2009, 20:54:19 UTC

Aphrodite tilted her head, regarding Sophie. "Welllllll, my recommendation would be the chocolate salts, and and a couple of different body oils." Moving closer, she picked up the jar of chocolate bath salt, unscrewing the cap. "Because the salts have a lighter scent when mixed with water," placing a spoonful in a small bowl of water, she stirred gently, "but the chocolate seems to cling to the skin."

Closing the jar, she reached for a sampler bottle of the body oil. "So, if you use the chocolate as a base, you can keep that subtle scent and mix it with others. Like this." Holding out a hand for Sophie's, she looked up with a smile. "May I?"

Re: Booth - Dite's Decadent Delights magdaofslovenia September 26 2009, 20:59:24 UTC

"Certainly." Sophie held out her hand, head tilted in curiosity. The smell was appetizing, but lighter than she expected; chocolate shavings and a hint of creamy cocoa, not like lathering oneself in chocolate syrup would be. Rather nice, really. "Are any of these edible?" With a very slightly sly smile.
