RE: it’s a fever dream - Alys - 02-14-2025
Alys covered a smile with a hand as the baker returned to inspect their cookies. Ah, yes, yes, very good! he announced, beaming at the pair of them. Now, you must try them, yes? As he waited expectantly, Alys took a cookie from each tray and exchanged an amused glance with Niki. Then she tried first one, then the other. Truth be told, she didn’t taste much of a difference between the two, but she offered a closed-mouth smile at the baker anyway. [say]”They’re very good,”[/say] she said once she’d swallowed her mouthful. [say]”I’ll be sure to make a purchase next time I’m here.”[/say]
Seemingly satisfied, the baker clapped his hands together. Wonderful! he exclaimed. There are some boxes you can use to take the remaining cookies with you. And remember to tell your friends! And with that, he bustled off to the next pair.
[say]”Well,”[/say] Alys said with a soft laugh. [say]”This has been an experience, Niki. I’d better be heading out, but it was very nice to meet you.”[/say] She began to package some of the cookies into a box. [say]”I do hope we meet again.”[/say]

Gesturing to allow Alys to be the one to taste test their cookies, since Niki is more of a fan of savoury and spice than anything sweet, he steps back and links his arms loosely behind him, allowing her to make her judgement. [say]"And I will be sure to recommend your bakery to anyone passing through,"[/say] he adds, smiling wryly at the baker's back as he leaves to inspect the cookies from his other victims volunteers.
[say]"An experience is certainly one way of putting it,"[/say] he agrees with a chuckle, helping to package the rest of the cookies up into the boxes, before stacking his own atop hers. [say]"So you and your partner can enjoy them,"[/say] he says, gesturing to them before collecting up his cane and stepping down from their workstation. [say]"It was good to meet you as well. If you ever find yourself in the Sidhe Village, you may run into me again."[/say]
Casting her a polite wave, with that, the boy bustles back into the crowd, intent on continuing with his day.
