(Day 2, Early Evening) A Scent of Home

[Whisper]

"For my business, being talked about is generally a good thing." he grinned. "Free advertising is always welcome."

[Illiam'iira]

"For my business, being talked about is generally a good thing." he grinned. "Free advertising is always welcome."

"Oooooh. Welp, you hit the jackpot," She giggles. The velvet bag is unwrapped -- surprise! it was a sash all along! -- and Illi lays it out before her, taking the time to smooth it before looking through the deck for something. "Can I have s'more evermead?"

[Ikkit the Bastard]

Ikkit snorted.

"Got a very ordered mind talkin' you up, cutter. And literal."

[Whisper]

"More drinks it is." he nodded. "I should line up a job tomorrow or the next day. I haven't had any requests, though."

[Ikkit the Bastard]

"Gotta get a steady angle."

Ikkit sipped at his beverage and looked around.

"Best thing 'bout my line. There's always more salvage."

[Whisper]

"There's always someone who wants something from somewhere." he shrugged. "But, times can get lean. Might have to go foraging for myself a bit."

[Illiam'iira]

"But, times can get lean. Might have to go foraging for myself a bit."

"...for food?" She meeps out.

[Whisper]

He laughed. "I could do that, but I'd probably still be taxed on bringing it in, even if it was just for consumption and not sale. No. There are some components that are always in demand. I can always go hunting for those. It's just not as profitable as fulfilling special requests."

[Ikkit the Bastard]

"C'n always hunt rats. No import duties on 'em, since they live all over Sigil."

[Illiam'iira]

He laughed. "I could do that, but I'd probably still be taxed on bringing it in, even if it was just for consumption and not sale. No. There are some components that are always in demand. I can always go hunting for those. It's just not as profitable as fulfilling special requests."

Oh that is a relief. Illiam lets out a breath she didn't know she was holding.
