  1. [16:03] Sting asks, "Do you know what this is?"
  2. [16:03] Jude Cirque says, "Oh."
  3. [16:03] Jude Cirque says, "Yeah. I do actually."
  4. [16:03] Sting asks, "Do you know what they're worth?"
  5. [16:03] Jude Cirque says, "Hmmmmm."
  6. [16:04] Jude Cirque says, "I'm biased, but it's at least 10,000c with how rare it is these days."
  7. [16:04] Sting asks, "What exactly is it, and what does it do?"
  8. [16:08] "For one, y'probably don't want to take this yourself," he reveals. The smallest pill almost vying to present itself with clear use, so much so that one who knew no better might have forsaken the piece as something that enhances performance.
  9.  
  10. Perhaps it was best Jude had been shown it.
  11.  
  12. "I don't know exactly what it does, but I know it ain't good." Perhaps those visits from Johannes was worth in the end. "Imagine Sylavanum, but it doesn't give you the good high."
  13.  
  14. "Now pretend a vampire made this."
  15. (Jude Cirque)
  16. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  17.  
  18. [16:08] Jude Cirque says, "It's better to poison someone with this."
  19. [16:09] Sting asks, "Are you interested in purchasing it?"
  20. [16:09] Jude Cirque says, "Oh the vampire variety of cour-"
  21. [16:09] Jude Cirque says, "Hmmmm."
  22. [16:09] Jude Cirque says, "I have a few myself I'm studyin', but if you're skimped for money, I can offer soemthin'."
  23. [16:09] Sting says, "Coin is not something that I lack Jude."
  24. [16:10] Sting says, "However there is always room to improve."
  25. [16:10] Jude Cirque says, "I figured as much."
  26. [16:10] Jude Cirque asks, "What'cha lookin' for?"
  27. [16:10] Sting says, "An offer."
  28. [16:10] Jude Cirque says, "I'm all ears."
  29. [16:10] Sting says, "A trade even."
  30. [16:11] Sting says, "Perhaps a few of the good stuff for this particular gem."
  31. [16:11] Jude Cirque says, "Mhmm, go on..."
  32. [16:12] Sting says, "As you might understand, Sylavanum can be troubling to aquire. Costly, but I know you can make it. So, I'll give you this for some Sylavanum."
  33. [16:16] He chuckles. Perhaps he had expected more, yet to request exactly that was as if requesting chocolate from a chocolatier.
  34.  
  35. "I'll give y'a better offer," he hums, a finger tapping upon the offered pill before sliding it back toward Sting with intent. "This here, I think it'll be better on your person. If ever y'decide to get someone off for lookin' at y'funny. It' a good way to make someone regret crossin' you without swingin'."
  36.  
  37. The Daydream Pill was not one he was extremely interested in.
  38.  
  39. "How about somethin' simpler for you?" He opens, his form shifting back as arms cross. "Consider me a lovely little source of Sylavanum. All I'm interested in? I'm personally interested in seein' how y'managed to teach Leo that trick." A finger shifts, tapping upon his temple as if to gesture toward his head.
  40.  
  41. The secrets of telepathy, his curiosity now posed forward.
  42. (Jude Cirque)
  43. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  44.  
  45. [16:20] It seemed that Jude was inclined to alter the potential deal and rework things into a different manner, of course things pressed him into a situation that could be dealt with.
  46.  
  47. "I can live with that arrangement, we will begin your studies in the coming weeks then. For now you had best return to starfall to ensure that you are not late for that adventure."
  48.  
  49. The pills were collected and placed back into his chest, a few ideas were had toward what exactly he could achieve with them... It was strange, but perhaps time was going to give him the opportunity to figure out a better use.
  50.  
  51. "We have an accord, your uncle was the one who dealt me most of the supply I still have. But I don't want to be dwindling, I am sure you understand." he had years available, but he wanted centuries.
  52. (Sting)
  53. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  54.  
  55. [16:23] The smile reels from Jude's countenance. The final year upon Starfall dawns forth, and it would be as clear that he would bear his final lesson.
  56.  
  57. Not from a professor, but from a colleague and friend.
  58.  
  59. "Consider it done," he chimes. "When I get back, I'll be sure t'get the details straight for a delivery for you in the comin' months."
  60.  
  61. As promised, he was more than joyous to peddle the family gold. "I understand y'don't want to lose out on a source. He might be retired, but for as long as Docro blood runs true, this stuff ain't goin' no where."
  62. (Jude Cirque)
