[There's more components and some incense in the back. The old woman steps behind another counter.] Kendrick, you know what we're looking for. * Kendrick nods. "Close enough, anyways." [Gimme an occult roll, -6 bonus Kendrick] [You see some components you were pretty sure were used in that ritual.] * Kendrick looks around the components, and spots what was used. What's the label read? [Scat of a pray bird. Special Lizard Tongue. Midnight basil. "There's also more detailed description in a few other languages'] [Also labeled in English: Litchenroot, Hippophane powder] * Kendrick points out those. "We'll need some Litchenroot, Hippophane powder, Midnight basil, an Atai scat, and a cured lizard tongue." [Woman nods] Will you want them prepared? And will you need the horse liver as well? ("For only another ten dollars, I can throw in three more ingredients and a free recipe.") * Kendrick hmmms... "Won't need the horse liver, but thanks anyways. Unprepared should work just fine." * Angel looks to Kendrick and raises an eyebrow. "DO we want the horse liver?" * Kendrick shakes his head. * Angel looks back to the old lady. "Why would we want a horse liver?" [Woman] Often used as a stabilizer for that spell. Only 15 pounds. So, if we didn't use it, it could wear off? * Kendrick lets Angel take control of the conversation, looking over the other components. This place well-stocked? [Yeah, it's stocked] (It's stoked, man.) [Woman] Spell will be more likely to be botched. Otherwise known as a fizzle. Makes for unpredictable results. * Angel watches as she collects the items. Containers seem a bit low? [Yeah, that's the last thing of scat] Seems you're a bit low on this stuff. Popular recently? [Other countainers are slightly lower than the rest of what's for sale, but it's not all that noticable] * Kendrick notes that Atai Scat is a fairly rare commodity. Very difficult to get usable components. [Woman nods] Yeah, we're the best shop for all of your needs. Many people come to us when they need reliable ingrediants. That's what we heard. It's why we came here. * Angel pulls out her cell, calls up the database photos of the suspects, and shows it to the old lady. Seen these folks recently? [Woman narrows her eyes] Never before. * She hurriedly finishes gathering the ingrediants. "That'll be one hundred pounds. Have a good day." Excuse me. I'd like you to take ANOTHER look. You SURE you haven't seen them? * Woman shakes her head. "Never.. are you with the police? I know my rights! I'm a British citizen." * Kendrick folds his arms and raises an eyebrow. "You do know witholding (sp) evidence is punishable in the court of law then, right?" I don't have a lot of time, nor is patience up on the list. I think you have seen them, haven't you? * Angel pulls her jacket back to flash her pistols. * Kendrick looks down at Angel. "Don't scare her." * Woman "You're not supposed to have guns, I could report you." She's shaking a bit though. * Kendrick flashes his badge. "We're here on assignment. Now, would you kindly co-operate? Otherwise, well... she's known to have an itchy trigger finger." * Woman "You come into my shop and threaten me? I could hex you, you should know I have that power." She's trying to sound intimidating, but you think she's too afraid to follow through on her bluff. You hex me, I come back for you. Luck only cuts me down so much... Now, all we want to know is what you know about these people. * Kendrick raises an eyebrow. [Starts looking around for something] Came to me a day ago... ::she searches under the desk some and then opens the back shutters:; Quit movin' around! Please keep your hands away from any reagents. We would not want to think you were trying something. * Angel half-reaches for a gun and glares. [Woman puts her hands in the air] Right right.. just grabbing the ledger book. Can I do that? Slowly. * Kendrick eyes her hands. She holding anything? [Woman's hands are empty, she slowly walks over to a book on the counter to open it.] [Sight check] [You see her moving to kick something under the desk. Can of some sort.] Feet away from the can. * Angel bends over and picks up the can * Woman curses profusely in Mongolian. Hey, watch your mouth. I know some of what you're saying. [Looks like the can was some sort of smoke screen spell. It's actually labelled and has instructions.] * Angel pockets it and peers at the ledger. "Show me the info." Woman seems really scared. "Even if I tell you.. they'll kill me. I've dealt with this type before." You want protection? Screw protection. I can put the hurt on you now, or you can have time to get away from theirs. * Woman "What, close up my shop and move to Whales and live the life of a sheep hereder.. Thanks no." [Nother intimidate please Angel.] * Woman sighs. "Alright... just be sure they're dead. The woman, she doesn't need the reactants for the spell. Just to make sure that they stay a while that way." You did sell the components to transmutate someone to a mob. I'm sure there's a supernatural clause in the lawbooks that would make you an accessory to murder. * Woman "They told me they were using it for a find your spirit guardian or some new age crap. How was I to know?" She endevors to look innocent. But yes, I delivered it to room 512, Queen's Arms Hotel. * Angel pulls out a 500 pound note and gives it to her, making the rest of her bills obvious. She gives a pleasant grin. "Thanks. Anything else you can help us with?" * Woman smiles. "Well.. for a thousand I won't call ahead and warn them." * Woman seems a lot more comfortable now that it's down to money matters. * Angel pulls out another 1500 pounds and hands it over. "See? No reason to do things the hard way." * Angel 's teeth sparkle with her giant grin. * Woman takes the money. "Thank you! Please come again." * Kendrick nods. "We'll take care of them, don't you worry." * Angel exits the back room, smile flashing wildly. * Angel has left #backroom * Kendrick looks around. "By the way, I like your selection. I'll keep it in mind." He walks out. [Woman nods pleasantly]
