what she's selling?

selling mango, plums, five finger, zaboca, and sorrel...and carailli. >w<

no idea what five finger is. He glances through her stuff curiously. "Nice market."

sure he does, but there are different names for it. "Thanks, its so busy though." and crowded, and loud. "You can come on my side of the_

_stall if you want?"

would very much like that. "If that's no problem, sure. Let me know what I can do to help." Loves these type of crowds.

grins a little "Keep an eyes out for people with quick hands."

already on it and only has to shoot a glare at one before they place the mango back down in the stall and walk away ashamed. "Seems like

everywhere is the same when it comes to thieves."

grateful for him. "Really? I think some are more vicious than others." Hers would chop off a hand for a ring or bracelet...

agrees that that's pretty vicious. "Hmm, that is true. Some kill for small things like camera and a bit of cash."

nods, she knows that too. "I know that one time this lady was walking around with just her purse straps on her shoulder. They'd cut off her_

_purse without her realising it."

can't help but chuckle but he'd heard many stories like that. "It's ridiculous how easy some make it seem."

guesses so. "It's more fun to do it upfront. Whip out your sword, and have an epic battle if need be." Ah, pirating days...

laughs. "Yes, that was always the best way especially when it came to conquering lands instead of just goods."

would guess so. "Too bad we're not allowed any of that now.."

agrees. "Too bad but maybe its for the best."

guesses so. "Less deaths for one.."

nods. "You can say that again. I'm pretty sure I lost thousands upon thousands of men per year." It was a rough estimate but with the amount

of fighting he had to do it wouldn't be surprising.

winces a little at that "Yea, better the way it is now."

nods once again. "So how long do you stay out at the market selling?"

shrugs "All day unless something comes up. In this case that would be you." she grins "I can show you around."

would like that. "Well, we can stay here for a few more hours and then you can show me around if you want?"

shakes her head "Nah, it hasn't been a good selling day anyways. I'll just pack up and come back tomorrow"

it's not only because he was here. "Alright, if you insist."

might be using it as an excuse, but she really wasn't getting sales. "I do~" She starts to pack up all the fruit.

helps her pack up so it will be faster.

thanks him, as she carries the boxes out and across the junction towards the main road. "Stay close. People can practically smell foreigners

"

laughs but does as she instructs, carrying a few boxes of his own. "Do I look that different from your citizens?"

glances over, sizing him up. "..Yes. The way you dress gives it away. Even when people move to Alfred or Matt's home and come back to visit_

_, you can tell by the way they dress that they came from elsewhere."

nods in understanding. "Ahh, I see, well in that case I'll just stay close."

stops at a corner and manages to hail a maxi taxi. She tugs him in with her, sitting down and sighing as she hands him the money, telling_

_him where to go. There weren't too many other people in the maxi. Sometimes it was so cramped v.v

finds the taxi interesting and just watches outside at the beautiful scenery. There were other people besides them but no one seem bothered

by that which was nice.

should have explained that a maxi was basically a mini-van made into a taxi/bus type of thing.

it was a very interesting experience. "So where you leading me to first?"

hums. "I'll show you my house? Just because I need to put all this fruit away...then we can go see.." Hmm. "Oh. I know where. It's a _

_surprise though."

chuckles. "Alright, surprises are fun."

glances out the window. 'Oh, here." She motions to the driver which lets them out. "Just down this road."

picks up the boxes he placed down and follows her down the road. It was a very lovely place from what he could see so far.

about that sometimes. The roads were a little beat up, and there were bars just about everywhere. But it was friendly, and nice, and loud. _

_"See the..fourth bar down? My gates are two down from that."

had indeed noticed all the bars. "I see them." He liked that the streets were lively and the people knew how to enjoy the little things.

eventually makes it up to her gates, waving to a few of the people in the bars. Everything was very...open concept here. She shifts the_

_boxes in her arms to unlock the gate, pushing it open and leading him up the walkway.

notices that the architecture looks nothing like that of his own but finds it fascinating. "I like the layout of the town so far." He

comments genuinely.

glances to him. "Really? It's a little shabby. I have a place near the capital, but I like here better cause...well I have a beach as my_

_backyard." She unlocks the heavy metal front door, pushing it aside, and moving the curtains that hung in the doorway as she went it.

edges in and gazes around the house. IT was really cosy...it seemed like a perfect place to escape too. "Where would you like me to place t

the boxes?"

glances around. "Uhm...out back. Hang on." She led him into the back. Basically covered in palm and fruit trees, a few goats running around.

finds the backyard even better as he places the boxes were Trini told him too. "Wow, this really is a nice place. Lucky catch."

grins. "Thanks. I've had it for a long while. Wanna see the beach?"

nods. "I'd love too."

nudges aside one of the goats, leading him through the gate on the other side which opened up into...well a very long stretch of beach.

follows and is amazed by the beach that seemed to come out of no where. "Do you go swimming every day?" He could understand why she loved

the water so much.

nods. "Basically. Or laze around on the sand and drink. I have a hammock set up...somewhere."

that would make it even more relaxing. If he was living here he'd probably never get any work done. "You must get quite a few visitors."

glances to him. "Personally? Or tourists?"

"Personally."

shrugs. "Not from other nations. But from my own people, yea they all like to party here. They can pass out where they drop and nobody will_

_wake them up with a cutlass at their neck."

that was too bad. He was sure if other nations came they would enjoy it just as much. "Sounds like fun either way."

nods "Yup. You should come out for one of the parties. I'll tell you when the next one is happening."

smiles. "That shouldn't be a problem at all. I'll definitely be there." >D

grins. "Good. I promise you'll have fun."

wasn't worried at all. "I have a feeling your parties aren't the type one does not have fun at."

laughs. "Damn straight. I hope you can hold your booze."

smirks. "Of course I can. I have loads of experience." >D

he'll fit right in. "Awesome." Hm, what else is there? "There will probably be lots of girls dancing all up on you. You're okay with that?"

laughs. "I used to have a Harem, of course I'm fine with that."

just double-checking. 'Then you'll have a blast. It'll be awesome." She pauses in thought, trying to remember a schedule in her head. _

_"You know...if you don't want to wait. I think there's a river lime today..."

no idea what a river lime is but it sounds interesting. "What exactly is that?"

keeps forgetting that despite speaking English, she uses different words. "Oh, it's like..it's a party by the river. Lots of drinking, _

_dancing, food...they put huge speakers on flatbeds and drive it down."

seems interested. "I don't mind staying for that. It sounds like lots of fun."

perks up "Really? I think you'll like it"
