[It's Purvis!]

> Glance back :is it someone familiar?

> Enter and Hail those who are present.

>You...think it might be that loup de garou woman?
>Entering inside, you find your instincts were correct. The werewolf woman in the hanafuda skirt is here, perusing the shelves. Nazrin is at the counter, her feet kicked up as she leans back in the chair. One of her mouse friends is currently perched on her head.
>"Hello," says the werewolf, wearing her usual long dress with the hanafuda card pattern.
>"Cap'n," Nazrin says with a little nod.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>Wave to Kagerou.
>Do we even know her name?
>Nod back to Nazrin and approach the counter.
>"Hi Naz, you still got that spellcard I left here?"

>Do a double take when we see what she's looking at.
>See if we can work out if she's just having a look at it or seriously considering purchasing it

>Do a double take when we see what she's looking at.
>See if we can work out if she's just having a look at it or seriously considering purchasing it

>You do a double take. It is impossible to read her mind, but it doesn't seem like she has only just glanced at it.

(//) > Well,at least now she know it is originally our property like we have just mentioned to Nazrin (//)

> To Nazrin : "  I am soon going to face An Ominous Challenge,thankfully not alone,related to That Investigation-Issue I am conducting...so I need to be cautiously prepared by also trading back my spellcard here" .

[Yaersulf]

>Approach Kagerou.
>"Excuse me. You aren't thinking of buying that are you?"
>What can one do with somebody else's spellcard?

[It's Purvis!]

> To Nazrin : "  I am soon going to face An Ominous Challenge,thankfully not alone,related to That Investigation-Issue I am conducting...so I need to be cautiously prepared by also trading back my spellcard here" .

>"Need me to pass that along to Hijiri?" says Nazrin. "Assuming you're not back for supper, I mean."

>Approach Kagerou.
>"Excuse me. You aren't thinking of buying that are you?"
>What can one do with somebody else's spellcard?

>You approach the werewolf; she glances toward you.
>"I was, actually," says the werewolf.
>In theory, a person with similar abilities could, with enough time, adapt it to their own style and use it. Or it could be used as a template for by someone less similar.

[Yaersulf]

>"What were you thinking of doing with it?"

[It's Purvis!]

>"What were you thinking of doing with it?"

>"Buying it," she says, frowning.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"I meant like, after you've bought it. Surely you have something in mind?"

[It's Purvis!]

>"I meant like, after you've bought it. Surely you have something in mind?"

>"That's not really your business, is it?" she says, her eyes narrowing a tad.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"Ah sorry, i forgot to introduce myself."
>Strike our most captainly pose.
>"I am Minamitsu Murasa, captain of the palanquin ship, and original owner of that spellcard."
>Return to our normal affect.
>"So uh, if you didn't have any strong plans for it I was hoping to buy if back off this place."

>The werewolf watches your display, relaxing a bit and perking her ears back up.
>"I'm Kagerou," she says. "And...I kind of did?"

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"Ah, well I'm gearing up for what has a pretty good chance of being a climactic showdown. So I don't suppose I can persuade you to part with it?"

[Branneg Xy]

>"Ah, well I'm gearing up for what has a pretty good chance of being a climactic showdown. So I don't suppose I can persuade you to part with it?"

> I certainly will be glad to help you out with it if what is needed is related to an expertly good usage of it,and I won't neglect to "properly preparate  It for navigatation " during this Meantime In Need.

>"Maybe," says Kagerou, frowning a bit. "I was, uh, planning to give it to a friend as a gift. She does a lot of water things, you see."

>_

[Yaersulf]

>Would it be possible to make another copy of the spell card later to give to Kagerou?

[It's Purvis!]

>Would it be possible to make another copy of the spell card later to give to Kagerou?

>Impossible? You have no idea. You've not tried to copy spellcards or heard of anyone else trying it.
>Illegal? Very probably. It's bad taste to use the same one over and over again.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"I'd be more than happy to give your friend some pointers on watery spellcards, they're something of a specialty of mine. Doubly so if she's a woman of the sea like me."

[It's Purvis!]

>"I'd be more than happy to give your friend some pointers on watery spellcards, they're something of a specialty of mine. Doubly so if she's a woman of the sea like me."

>Kagerou purses her lips for a moment, then sucks on her teeth. "...Not much of a gift I can give, that."

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"Don't worry, I'm a ghost! I'm sure you can fit me in a box somehow."
>We put ships in bottles right? Do we have any of those assembled back at the temple?

[It's Purvis!]

>"Don't worry, I'm a ghost! I'm sure you can fit me in a box somehow."
>We put ships in bottles right? Do we have any of those assembled back at the temple?

>"We already have one haunted box."
>You do, and you have a selection of them.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"Actually, if you're looking for a gift I might have the perfect thing. I make little model ships in bottles as a hobby, I'd be happy to give you one for free if you let me buy my spellcard back off Nazrin."
>We kind of just left Tojiko back at Mayohiga didn't we?

[It's Purvis!]

>"Actually, if you're looking for a gift I might have the perfect thing. I make little model ships in bottles as a hobby, I'd be happy to give you one for free if you let me buy my spellcard back off Nazrin."
>We kind of just left Tojiko back at Mayohiga didn't we?

>"Hmm," Kagerou says. "That's really generous. A little too generous, those have to take a lot of time to make, don't they?"
>Sort of. Yes.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>What do we normally do with completed ships in bottles, do we ever sell them?

[Branneg Xy]

>"Hmm," Kagerou says. "That's really generous. A little too generous, those have to take a lot of time to make, don't they?"
>Sort of. Yes.

>_

> Nod with a bit of a frown : " They sort of do,yes...BUT since this is a situation of need AND if I can come&check to see if my ship-in-a-bottle is a well-appreciated,cared-for gift for your water-linked friend,all the more seeing I share a Water-Link as well...then that'd be alright "

[It's Purvis!]

>What do we normally do with completed ships in bottles, do we ever sell them?

>Typically not. They're for displaying and appreciating.

> Nod with a bit of a frown : " They sort of do,yes...BUT since this is a situation of need AND if I can come&check to see if my ship-in-a-bottle is a well-appreciated,cared-for gift for your water-linked friend,all the more seeing I share a Water-Link as well...then that'd be alright "

>"Mmmm, well...maybe," says Kagerou.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"Trust me, I've got enough of them lying around and it'd be good to see them appreciated. And they're not half bad if I do say so myself, Nazrin can back me up."
>Wave to Nazrin to make sure we've got her attention.
>"Hey Nazrin, those little ships in bottles I make are pretty neat eh?"
