At one of the stalls, there is what looks like a child's doll standing on one of the counters admiring the goods in a display case. N-no, no, he saw that right - the thing seems to be living....?!?!

Harlequin gazed at the contraptions laid out in neat rows on neutral grey felt under the glass. "Goodness, I don't even know what half these things are. Aaaand . . . that one looks like it'd be rather painful to even try to use!"

Zack had stopped for a snack earlier, and was now munching on a apple as he randomly browsed the wares offered by various shopkeepers. He was enjoying himself, flirting a bit with the pretty girl selling ceramics in one stall when he spotted Harlequin in the next stall.

Wow. He'd never seen a doll that could talk before. And unknowing to Zack, he'd spoken his last thought out loud.

Harlequin flinched in surprise and turned to look for the source of the voice. He snickered a bit in amusement as he shook his head. "No, sir, I'd imagine you haven't. Not unless you've been to the out-of-the-way corner of Melior where I'm from." Shifting to face the flesh person more directly, he swept his little bicorn off his head as he offered a deep bow. "Pleased to meet you, good sir. I am Harlequin, at your service."

Zack scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed as he realized he'd just spoken out loud. The way his mouth would go sprouting off whatever was in his head had gotten him into embarrassing situations before. "Hehe, sorry about that. Didn't mean to be rude. But I HAVE been in Melior before. It has been a long time though..."

He quickly gave a half bow in response to Harlequin's introduction. "I'm Zack Fair. Nice to meet you!"

"Hey, Miss--hey. . Lady!"

At one of the nearby food stalls was a teenage boy, who seemed to be frantically trying to get the attention of the woman taking orders. Several people in the vicinity had turned their heads towards the raised voice, and a few people in the line for the said food stall were grumbling and scowling--presumably because they'd just been jostled by the kid's mad dash to the counter.

"Hey! Hey!"

When resolutely ignoring him didn't seem to work, the woman turned a sharp gaze on the youth and stated, "You want to order something, you move to the back of the line like everyone else."

Gripping the counter with his hands, Sora leaned forward over the space as if he intended to simply leap over. "No, I'm not--I was just here, I'm not trying to order anything else. I just need to know if you found a wallet, or if anyone turned one in to you just now!"

Not at all~ zack_thefairest June 22 2009, 04:12:49 UTC

It was nearing noon time, and Zack's stomach was grumbling right on cue even as he started smelling the appetizing scents wafting over from the food stalls. His mind immediately forgot his shopping plans and started planning what he was going to have for lunch.

Let's see. The chicken and mushroom on skewers look good as well as the lamb chops being grilled in the stall next door and ooh, there was honey cakes! Then some cold beer to wash it all down. Zack could feel himself drooling already.

Just as he was about to start lining up up for the chicken skewers when he heard the Sora's question.

"Kid, hate to break it to you but you probably lost your wallet for good." He called out.

Thanks! <3 destined_skies June 23 2009, 01:28:23 UTC

The brunette navigator briefly turned his head towards Zack, brows drawn into a frown before he turned back to the counter. The woman behind it shook her head, "Sorry, haven't seen one."

"You're sure?"

Now the woman was starting to get impatient. "I said I haven't seen one, kid. Now scram."

Sora pulled back from the stand, visibly deflated. He kicked his shoe against the dusty ground for a moment, before turning to leave. . .

Zack shook his head sadly. In a crowd like this pickpockets and thieves were inevitable no matter who was patrolling the crowd. He'd had prior experience in Kropmork already and since then he's been very very careful about his wallet whenever he went out, especially if he's going to a crowded place like the marketplace.

He did feel sorry for the kid so he called again, "Kid, nobody's kind enough in a place like this to turn in a wallet if they found one, especially if the finder was a pickpocket."
