Yo you don' ask questions 'bout shady shit do you?

<MISTER MYSTERY>

[kolus]

just the important ones; what do you need?

<reapercreeper>

[soundsurfing]

Got a ton of music shit that I needa get rid of. Guitars an' the like, new. Know you know how to sell stuff.

[Stolen clothes on the volcano. Really.]

<MISTER MYSTERY>

[kolus]

ill need to look at them. looking for silver or something in exchange?

<reapercreeper>

[soundsurfing]

No prob. They at my house right now but I can move 'em someplace better. Still got workin' tunnels 'round town.

Huh, was gonna say coin but lately I've been tradin' in favours. How's that sound?

Action; 2/14 - Morning

[braidtrain]

Grunkle Staaaaaaaaaaaaaannn!

[Good morning family. For anyone who is checking the calendar, today is February 14th, the most important day of the month! And she's hunting down each and every family member with a very important purpose.]

Where you at Grunkle Stan?

[kolus]

[ Picking a hair from the batter, he slides the spatula beneath the pancake and flips it over. The pan sizzles and aroma of butter frying slowly moves through the house, Stan's terrible singing accompanying it. ] Makin' pancakes in the mornin', doodly-doo. Frozen fingers in the freezer - Hey! What's the word, Mabel?

[ Stan greets her with a smile, just as eager to hear what the excitement is as she sounds to share it.]

[braidtrain]

[Stan's great singing you mean. She just had to follow the aroma to find him, and she grins as he answers, something in hand.

Mmmm pancakes...but no! Can't get distracted!]

Well Grunkle Stan, as you may or may not know, today is the third greatest day of the year!

[There's glitter on her sweater and on whatever that pink thing in hand is, and some kind of red fuzzy thing glued to her cheek that she either hasn't noticed yet, or hasn't been able to pry off yet.]

[kolus]

[ There was certainly something about the fourteenth of February, though he's not nearly as enthused as Mabel. He looks confused, especially when he spots the fur on her cheek. ]

Uh... The statehood day of Oregon?

< sixer > RE: IMPORTANT.

[hexadic]

Stanley,

I have been working hard at the clinic but something has been going on.

Have you been paying attention to any of this religion business going around? Fog God? Fourth God? Any God?

Fiddleford is involved with one of them and I was going to see if you had any idea yourself.

-- Ford

< MISTER MYSTERY >

[kolus]

i think the whole peninsula knows where he stands [ With the Forth God and Ford. ]

but. yeah. i know a bit about em. what do you want to know?

[hexadic]

I need to know what has them all riled up right now. I have heard very little of the Gods until the past couple of weeks. Do you have any clue as to why they are so keen on recruiting out of the blue?

[kolus]

tensions are high. people are scared. its the perfect time to recruit. have you seen the stuff they promise? a way home. a safe place to stay. a way to get rid of hunger. hard to say no to that with all thats been going on.

they call it ALIGNING. theyve got a whole ritual for it and everything.

I've heard from a previous customer of yours that you might be able to provide a few difficult to find items for me, for a price.
Is this true?

<MISTER MYSTERY?

[kolus]

you can get anything for the right price
unless youre a cop
youre not a cop are you?

<BeastofPerdition>

[hamham]

Rest assured I am not affiliated with any police establishment.

[If you wanna get technical he's working with a yakuza so cop is about the last job he'd be holding.]

I require ten drops of blood from both a goblin and a kelpie.
Do you have a supply of either, and what would you consider to be the correct price in this instance?

<MISTER MYSTERY>

[kolus]

[ That's awfully precise. It sounds a lot like...] that witch cook up a spell for you?

<kingofhearts>

[andthetombstones]

Hey Stan, I've got a business thing if you wanna help out

It needs to be cheap but, like, still cool

[kolus]

DOES THIS THING HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT SUMMER FAIR YOU WANNA RUN?

[andthetombstones]

Wait you heard about it?

I mean yeah

[kolus]

I READ THE NETWORK. SOMETIMES. SURPRISED ANYONE EVEN REPLIED WITH THAT PITCH OF YOURS. PUT ME TO SLEEP BEFORE I COULD REACH THE END.

<billybumbler>

[thehangedboy]

mister pines i just had the best idea

[kolus]

DOES IT INVOLVE SEA CUCUMBERS?

[thehangedboy]

what??
no

it involves making a ton of money

all we have to do is make our own god
there's got to be a way to monetize how much the people stuck here want to join every cult they see

[kolus]

[ That's so morally ambiguous you'd think he made it up himself. If he wasn't so suspicious of goblin influence he'd be proud of you Jake. ]

YOU DONT NEED A GOD FOR THAT. FOLKS WILL BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU FEED EM IF YOU SPIN IT RIGHT. LIKE HOLDIN TWO TIN CANS TIED TO A COMPUTER WILL FIX THEIR PROBLEMS.

BUSINESS BEEN SLOW AT THE LANES?
