> Patchouli: Consider change of clothes.Yeah, this is getting old fast. However, you'll need to find somewhere private to change, and you'll be damned if you settle for any of the restrooms around here. You glance towards the large stage set up at the back of the cavern, and come up with a good idea. There are probably some decent dressing rooms backstage that you could sneak (or fight) into. It doesn't look very busy over there right now, so you drag Sakuya and the fairies in that direction.
Along the way, you pass by a few of the stalls set up for the party and can't help but notice a small shop selling a bunch of random magical knick-knacks. You poke your head in and have a quick look at what's for sale, making note of a FEW INTERESTING THINGS.
[ I wanted to animate him dancing like the Secret of Mana merchant, but alas, no time, so you'll just have to imagine it. ]BAG OF HOLDING: ?30000
This ubiquitous magic item has a much larger interior than exterior, and renders any object placed within weightless. In short, it dramatically increases your INVENTORY SPACE. While this object might sound like it is perfect for you, the bag itself is somewhat heavy and thus exceeds your weight capacity. Too bad, because the price is kind of a steal. Sorry!
RING OF BALLET: ?25000
This ring magically enhances one's ability to perform ballet moves. You wonder what kind of BATSHIT INSANE BUILD someone was working towards when they had this made. However, you are mildly curious if the acrobatic properties of this ring can be put to a more utilitarian use (preferably while nobody is looking).
SOVEREIGN GLUE: ?10000
This ARCANE SUPER GLUE allows you to glue together any two objects in a permanent fashion. The exact strength of this particular variety of glue is unknown; any attempts to forcibly separate the glued objects has always resulted in the objects breaking before the bond. The glue sets pretty quickly, and is notorious for being EXTREMELY LIKELY to produce TERRIBLE AND/OR EMBARRASSING ACCIDENTS. Any wizard worth their salt knows that you DO NOT CARRY SOVEREIGN GLUE WITHOUT UNIVERSAL SOLVENT.
UNIVERSAL SOLVENT: ?4000
This aforementioned magical oil has the unique property of completely and instantly destroying the bonds of any sticky substance it touches. It is completely harmless otherwise. Any wizard worth their salt knows that you must KEEP THIS STUFF AWAY FROM YOUR SPELLBOOKS AT ALL COSTS. A destroyed binding on a spellbook can have unpredictable and almost certainly unpleasant results.
HATE POTION: ?3000
Anyone who drinks this potion will be consumed with INTENSE HATE for the next person they see. You are interested in this purely to run tests on it and find out how somebody could've fucked up a batch of LOVE POTIONS badly enough to create this.
HAGAKURE ORB: ?20000
This is a small blue CRYSTAL BALL designed specifically for FORTUNE TELLING. When asked a question, it will provide a STARTLINGLY SPECIFIC ANSWER. However, the prediction will only be correct exactly 20% of the time, the kind of thing a DOUCHEBAG AUTHOR would have all sorts of fun with. It's rather light and seems like it would break easily.
UNIDENTIFIED SPELLBOOK: ?10000
It's a spellbook! But it's written in some kind of crazy glowing rune language you've never seen before. Seems interesting, though translating it would be a pain in the ass. You can't really get any sense of what subject the book is supposed to be about, but the diagrams indicate it is definitely for wizardly purposes.
GAUNTLET: ?5000
The description of this magical relic indicates that it can be used to wield a ONE-HANDED WEAPON with TWO HANDS. Is that a typo? You don't really get the point of this item.
BACKUP CANDY BACKUP: ?1000
This tiny pouch, easily attached to the inside of any of your clothes, grants you two additional slots for pieces of BACKUP CANDY. Amazing! (Candy not included.)
BLUE CANDLE: ?10000
This candle, which never fully melts, produces some funky blue mood lighting. It actually looks pleasant and would probably be nice somewhere in the library. It can also shoot a little burst of flame on command, but you have to walk around with it for a little while to recharge it after each shot. This feature is not particularly useful to you for OBVIOUS REASONS.
EVERCLEAN NAPKIN: ?15000
This is a fancy cloth napkin that will neatly obliterate any offending residue it wipes up, keeping it in PRISTINE CONDITION at all times. While it seems kind of neat, you cannot think of any real use for it offhand. Sakuya seems interested in this item.
SPARKLY HAIRCLIPS: ?1000
A bundle of sparkly hairclips, the kind of which a group of GENERIC ANIME HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS would wear to make themselves visually distinguishable from their peers. The sparklyness appears to be the only enchantment. You have no use for these cheap pieces of crap, but the maid fairies seem interested in this item.
Would you like to buy any of these items?
