Gnome.

Attacked me.

DAMN IT! I told them it was dangerous but did they listen!?!? NO! FUCK. Why couldn't they take it with them?!?! SOMEONE HELP!

I'm in the closet.


... In other news. We have a helicoptor?!? WHAT?! Does ANYONE here know when/how we got it? The notes say it's in disrepair. I'll have to take a look at this. When the fucking creepy gnome with a KNIFE isn't trying to chop my head off!

Lawn gnomes are evil. Anyone not on the sub know about this? Or how to get rid of it??? Or something?!?!

Oh yes, no one hates turnips and their sales persons quite like the gentry.

[doubleppk]

Which is a shame because they should share their gems in exchange for some beautiful world-class turnips. It's only fair.

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Well I suppose gems could be a useable currency, but you'd need an assayer on hand to give you the proper value.

[doubleppk]

Mm. I'm pretty good at assessing such things.

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

It would be pretty inconvenient if you had to ascertain the value of every piece of barter you did though. I think I'll stick to gold.

[doubleppk]

Gold is good but kind of cumbersome in large quantities.

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Why, that's what bags of holding were invented for. Of course, the common variant just isn't as useful as the patented Jan Jansen version, with twelve pockets crammed full of useful items such as left handed nut-crackers and two handed great forks for fighting off giant sausages.

[doubleppk]

... Bags of holding? As in regular backpacks with pockets?

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Nononono, these are magical bags that have more space inside them. Created patent pending by a Jansen I'll have you know. My very own great, great, great Uncle Olsaric came up with the idea after attending a posh do and chatting away with some lunatic human with scary hair-do.

[doubleppk]

... They're magic? Do you have any? Could I see them?

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

I'll show you them when I dock. 'Course I'd have to take all the money out of them first, have you got a decent sized strongroom on that ship of yours?

[doubleppk]

Money? Strongroom? Maybe. Yes... probably...

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

It'll have to be pretty large I'm afraid, its an awful lot of money. You should have seen the bankers face when I said I wanted to take it all out at once.

[doubleppk]

*_*

You don't say.....

...

...

...
I'm afraid to ask. What currency do you have it in?

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Just standard gold coins, fifty gold per pound.

ooc: Why yes, her brain broke. 1/2

Oh... Ah... Really? *_*

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Why? Were you expecting me to use lead hoops or bits of parchment?

[doubleppk]

Parchment... yes... or... something...

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Well I suppose I could have taken out a credit note from the Coiners, but I wasn't sure if it'd be accepted anywhere else. Gold might be a little harder to transport, but nothing has quite the same feel as a solid pound of it sitting on your palm.

[doubleppk]

Right... yeah... I can see that... hm... I went with diamonds last chance I had... you know... same principle. You can take those anywhere really.

....

Turnips REALLY sell that well!?

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

We-ll no, adventuring with a demi-god and saving the world got me that.

[doubleppk]

Oh...

Hm.

Whenever I save the world I just get my ass kicked. Not a fun gig.

[turnipsmeister.livejournal.com]

Oh? Obviously you're not doing it right. Take my second cousin six times removed for example, uncle Simon is forever saving the world, but I've told him countless times that his "Buggy the Friendly Balor" costume just isn't appropriate.

[doubleppk]

What?

And... yeah I probably wasn't. It's a long story. More like had to do it or die kind of deal.
