"Oh!" Mila's eyes came alight when Elder Lyontus spoke up. She did have that nasty habit of letting her mouth run, or so Shila tells her. "Uuuh..." the little girl blanked, "...Well, Kakariko Village is a mining town, right? And the Goron Brothers are selling bombs and things for them to help, so I thought I would too!" she beamed. [i]"Mila..."[/i] her fairy warned accusingly. The Kokiri's smile faded and her eyebrows furrowed as she peered up to the glowing orb. Shila had known better. Not only did she have all the facts, Mila rarely took that long of pauses in her speech nor did she speak so succinctly. It was a little tell when she was fibbing. Although the Kokiri child would argue that she was [i]technically[/i] telling the truth because that's what she planned to do once it became popular enough to market across the fair, she was aware that her fairy would have none of it. "I... uuh... a customer asked for it!" she smiled once more. [i]"Mila... [b]Which[/b] customer?"[/i] Shila threatened once more. The rusty-haired girl looked nervously to her fairy again before boring her eyes into the countertop. "...It was skinny man in the cloak..." she muttered, defeated. Shila flitted over to Elder Lyontus, encircling his head slowly. [i]"He swindled Mila into stealing her goggles,"[/i] she explained in her haughty, condescending tone. Mila's face rose from the wood paneling with an angry frown. "Did [i]not![/i] I'm trading Kaboom Potion for Goggles of Darkvision and he [i]will[/i] come back and that'll show [i]you![/i]" Mila pulled her lower eyelid down and stuck her tongue out at the golden orb of light. If one could see pass the luminescent glow, they would similarly see Shila sticking her tongue out as well. And then Mila became increasingly aware that Naki was there and the color drained from her face. "Oh! B-but don't worry about me! Eee hee!" she giggled anxiously, waving her hands up defensively, "That's what the waivers are for! If the Gorons can sell explosives, then why can't I? That's not fair! And I'm not selling weapons, I'm selling medicine that just blows up sometimes if you drop it! Alchemy is ill-understood anyway, you know that! It would be impossible for anyone to tell what it is unless they were an Alchemist, and I won't have any accidents because I'm being [i]super[/i] careful! I've got my Alchemist's license an-" [i]"Mila!"[/i] Shila barked at her, demanding the Kokiri's silence. A promise that was delivered as her lips pursed tightly. [i]"After you get your goggles back, if you get your goggles back, no more potions that can harm anyone."[/i] "Yes Shila..." Mila said emptily, gazing at the wood grain of the stall's counter guiltily. [i]"I want to her you say it,"[/i] the fairy chided. Mila took a sighing breath. "I won't make anymore potions that can hurt somebody..." [i]"And you won't sell potions to shady characters."[/i] "And I won't sell potions to people of questionable morals..." [i]"And why did you do it?"[/i] The Kokiri girl thought for a moment before carefully selecting her answer. "I did it because I got excited and wanted to make something challenging instead of boring old healing potions..." [i]"And I want you to apologize to Elder Lyontus for lying to him,"[/i] the glowing ball of light demanded. The little girl looked up incredulously at her sprite. "But I didn't lie! I was-" Mila was interrupted by the sound of several sharp, high pitched rings of a bell, and the threatening bounce of her fey companion. "Sorry Naki," she responded immediately. Dejected, the little potion girl, leaned an elbow on her booth, boring her gaze downward. Her empty emerald eyes flitted over to the stale bread that the beggar twig man never took, and she broke off a piece and began to crunch on it to ease the lump in her stomach. [i]"I'm terribly sorry about this,"[/i] Shila apologized to the elder alchemist, [i]"You know her, she's usually much better behaved than this. I think it's the strange dreams she's been having."[/i]
