As you swerve outside to the crafts section, you cannot but help to take a second to admire the exotic nature of the Lost Clans, their history so inherent in their crafts, their sleek designs their-
Bright colourful Arkpakassu sweaters?
Sitting in front of her booth, knitting with a rather soulful expression is the head priestess. The longest army of colourful yarn lie in giant piles behind her and she seems to have the most serious expression ever.
A giant sign overhead exclaims:
100% Arpakassu Wool Sweaters
The booth itself is brightly coloured craft booth covered in fluffy sweaters of all sizes assaults your eyes! The Head Priestess looks at you hopefully. They are nice sweaters but.... they're a little pricey
Talk to Medea:
"I hope these designs are appealing," The Head Priestess frets, kneading her current sweater creation, "I've only asked the most important about what designs are current and trendy."
There are dark circles under her eyes. Hopefully she didn't spend too long researching....
Eye the sweater collection:
There are sweaters of practically each colour. It kind of hurts your eyes to look at for two long and what was with Medea's taste? Who exactly had been giving her these pattern suggestions again?

Vanya around the festivities, arms crossed behind her head. She was itching for something to do; no matter how small. Wandering down the craft section, she wondered if perhaps she would be able to find a new trinket or accessory. It didn't matter what, so long as it was beautiful. She noted the Head Priestess knitting furiously and raised a brow, eyeing the collection of.. sweaters.. Vanya wasn't one for clothing, let alone clothing that covered up so much but she kind of felt sorry for the Priestess and maybe a sweater could come in handy for.. something.
Shifting awkwardly, she cleared her throat. "Ahem. Can I buy a blue one, please? They're um.. Lovely." She presented the right silver seeds to the mare with a soft smile that may have even resembled a grimace.
Vanya has 117 Silver Seeds. She is using 10. She now has 107 Silver Seeds.
I hope it's okay to post with a guest. aheuhuehe. Feel free to delete this post if it's not. OTL
Also is it possible to get an image of the sweater? I like to keep inventory of items my characters receive. /hahahahwhatafreakright?

Eisheth was quite happy to spot Medea: she hadn't seen the priestess for a while. Good to know she's doing fine... with the exception of her tired look. But well... all of them were tired recently, and probably the head priestess has much more to think about than most of them. Still, Eisheth was happy Medea was round: this fact provided her with a feeling of stability she seriously lacked lately.
And of course, she couldn't miss the chance to buy herself the Famine-coloured sweater. In fact, it was the only so-so wearable sweater, but she won't say that to Medea... there's no need to disappoint the priestess who tried so hard to fit in.
Some of the booths were popping up now, and Tseng couldn't help but notice Medea's among them all. He was a little surprised, but he didn't question it really. Smiling, he bowed to the Priestess. She looked pretty worn out, but she looked fine otherwise.
Looking over the selection of goods, he decided to grab special D. There was something remarkably bold about it.
He liked it.
Paying for the sweater, he went on and threw it on to try it out. Immediately, he felt fired up.
..
Moreso than usual that is.
The robes he wore under the sweater tore away and a bright yellow flame appeared upon his forehead.
"REEEEBOOOOOOOOOOOORN!" he cried out, "I WILL CELEBRATE SPIRIT WEEK WITH MY DYING WILL!"
Bowing quickly to Medea to thank her... he soon blazed off elsewhere.

Finding himself in front of a booth, Ricar immediately decided he wasn't interested in gaudy, bright colors and passed by every single sweater.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a less brightly colored shirt in a dark brown and olive color that was labeled "Famine Clan" He briefly thought about purchasing one of these, but after seeing the pricetag and debating on what "Famine Clan" might mean, he decided that losing a sizable portion of his money on a sweater that could possibly be a rival school's colors was probably not the best idea.
He preferred the games of chance anyways.

Thick wooly sweaters. Made from the wool of arpakassu, the FLUFFIEST minipet EVER. Mayaa might of squealed really, really loud.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, can I get the orange one??!" Handing over the pumpkin seeds to the head priestess, she slipped it over her head, and gushed. IT REALLY WAS THE FLUFFIEST EVER.

It was not easy for Amarus to focus. She had been locked away in her room for so long, just sleeping as much as possible and neglecting pretty much anything close to studying or going out until she really had no choice to surface-- but now that she was out, she was systematically going to do everything. She couldn't die, because she was a ghost, so what was there to lose! Okay, well, not die as in physically over-exert herself, though she was admittedly going to get exhausted from all this excitement.
Next up was a booth of ... bright sweaters? How distressing. And yet.. how warm-looking. She actually... distressingly, really liked the one that was looking at her very cutely, in a sort of mortified way. It would feel like wearing Lizzy around. And she was strangely okay with that. So, in the end, she put down 30 of her precious and limited seeds and folded the white one up. Wait a second.
It was Medea knitting these sweaters. Amarus felt something as close to affection as she could feel for a relative stranger swell up in her. She only ever associated Medea with power, and wellness, and ever since that one time she had been able to heal the students and horsemen, she could not forget the relief. So she paused, mumbled, "You look tired, Medea; you should probably stop knitting soon. Um, the sweaters are... nice."
Really bright and painful, actually, but soft at least? Amarus excused herself from the booth, sweater in tow-- it wasn't on, yet.

Nessa wonders around to the end of the booth looking at the beautiful sweaters, and reading the signs about the different types.
"Hmm I don't see purple .. So may I please have a blue one?'
She reaches into her pocket and pulls out her 10 Silver Seeds and places them down.
"thank you!"

Catching up to West, the two had arrived just around the Horsemen compound when Levi was able to bound between the wrath demon and his current stomping path. One sec now, yew forgot this. Detaching the metallic five pointed star sticker from its paper backing onto her thumb, the tatzel stuck it onto West's lips with a chuckle. Hey, he wasn't going to verbally retaliate or anything; now was a time to take advantage of this fact. There. It was'a gift after all. Don't hurt none ta'accept it.
Sounds of ooohing and aawweing nearby made Levi's ears twitch, causing her head to turn in the direction of the action. A booth? C'mon, let's go see what they're up to, kekeke Grabbing West lightly by the forearm, she led him over to...
Medea? Looking at the wrath demon, then back at the booth where the death clan priestess sat knitting away like her Gran, Levi remained in shock for a moment, staring. So even the priestess had this sort of a hobby; interesting. She looked to be hard at work, so the tatzel didn't look to disturb her. Instead, she passed over the various sweaters that seemed to be available for purchase. Arkpakassu wool meant these were made from a really great quality yarn. Counting off her silver, Levi hummed in thought. Keeping her voice low, she tapped a finger on West's arm while filing through some sweaters for sizing with her other. Whatcha'think?
Thannas stumbled upon Medea's booth rather haphazardly. The pup had had all of the adventures in Wonderland that he very well desired for the day, thank you just the same, and now he was ready for something a bit more cheerful. It was the colors that called to him, the vibrant splendor of dyed wool, a quick fascination for the pup. Reaching out to pluck up a blue sweater, rumbling happily at the texture of the fabric. "Than chooses this one!" He warbled, "Is very pretties, Miss Medea!" He rather hoped that that was the proper way to address her. Offering up his silver, he considered the sweaters for a long moment. He might have to pick another one up for a friend later!

He had no real idea why he was fuming. So what if he hadn't managed to lasso a minipet? West hated minipets. It didn't seem to matter. About twenty steps into his one-demon parade the boil surfaced long enough to think about the sheer idiocy of what he was doing, but that didn't slow his forward progress. He stomped and stomped with no destination in mind, his thoughts bouncing from how useless he'd become to how none of them were safe to...
The first thing West did when Levi intercepted his blind Spirit Week steamrolling was stare at her stupidly, blinking with confusion. What had he forgotten where? And why was she... He crossed his eyes, peering at the sticker she'd pressed to his lips before pulling it off and looking at it properly. Ewe... tried? He might have tried to stick it back on her, but the tatzel was on the move again, leading him over to one of the nearby booths. At least whatever she was pulling him toward couldn't be much worse than ram wrestling while trying to hide a debilitating injury, right?
NOPE.
West almost took a step back when he noticed the horsewoman, and if he'd been able to gasp, he surely would have. He even tried to swallow again, but all that really did was send a sharp pain stabbing down the back of his throat. What did he think? He thought the second either one of them put on one of these damn sweaters they would find themselves contractually obligated to run naked through forty trances while strangling a hunter with each fist.
But he couldn't say any of that, so instead he reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out his bag of seeds. He didn't take his eyes off of Medea as he held it out to Levi. Sure. Buy a couple of sweaters, darling.
West has 94 seeds.

He tore his gaze from the Death horsewoman, watching happy customers pull their purchases over their heads. None of them looked any worse for it, at least not free-will wise. The sweaters themselves were horrid, but West would take one back to his dorm if Levi wanted him to. He felt her eyes on him and he turned when she spoke, shaking his head once she was done. The seeds went back into his pocket for a moment as he pulled out his phone and tried to type, only to find that his You're A Failure, Son sticker was still hanging off of his forefinger. He frowned, sticking it to his shirt instead.

West shook his head to indicate her deduction was incorrect. Expression easing with the addition of the sticker, she waited for West to once again speedily type out words on his eyePhone to respond. Oh- OH! I getcha. Hmm~ well, sure! I'll find somethin' fer ya.
West had just asked Levi to choose an item of fashion for him.This was not only profoundly daunting, but truly a puzzling task. Levi had no eye for what was hip or trendy aside from what she saw in the TeenScream magazines; even then the tatzel just saw clothes eloquently placed together that she could not decipher. Good old shorts, shirt and scarf was what Levi's wardrobe was mostly about.
Nevertheless, the white-haired ghoul patted various sweaters with the tips of her fingers, following patterns and signs of what some of them were specially labeled as. The first to be taken up by the ghoul was a single colored orange sweater. Aha! As if there were any doubts about her preferred colors from her current ensemble, Levi held the unfolded sweated up to herself, sure enough, finding a correct size. I like it. Somethin'bout tha'color, I think. Very nice worksmanship n' quality.
Out of the corner of her eye one of the other designs, consisting of a bright red, had Levi stroking the pattern with her free hand while the other held onto what would be her new orange sweater. Reading the sign, this particular sweater represented the War Clan. Levi cackled; of course it would be War.Somethin' tells me this'one's right up yer alley, West, kekeke. Flipping through the sizes again, Levi took up what was surely West's size after giving him a thorough looking over. Yep, this looks good. Know what it is? War Clan. Levi smirked slyly then, saying nothing that West couldn't already recall himself at the mention of War. Placing the unraveled War sweater against West's chest, Levi gestured for him to take it and see for himself. Like it? It's really soft, ya see. She rubbed her cheek against her own orange bundle to demonstrate just how comfy she thought they'd be.
Oh right, kekeke, shouldn't be doin' this b'fore I buy it, right? Fishing out the appropriate amount as indicated, Levi gave the seeds to Medea. It was a bit awkward, given past experiences, but for the work she did, it was worth commending. Levi had to appreciate good hard labor. Thank ya. Did some fine work 'ere, ma'am.
When the transaction was complete, Levi stared at West expectantly. She waited. Did he like her choice, or didn't he?
Levi has 81 silver seeds, using 10 right now. New total = 71 silver seeds
