“Right, a place or two. Then I’ve been to a place or two myself.” Jezem eyed the other wares and without missing a beat, began to haggle for a jar of plum preserves. Though initially aggressive in his approach to give the student a fair challenge he was satisfied with a small percentage off. Whether he got something for half off or 1% off didn’t matter to him. Anything was acceptable. . . except full price.

Jessie was looking around, pretending to be bored, but he was taking in the whole market with a keen eye.

Meanwhile, Ren had a list of things they were looking for. “Does anyone know if there is an artist supply shop nearby. I know there are some on the colony, but I’m still getting my bearings and not sure what’s in close walking distance. or not.”

“There is a homemade art supplies stall a little ways ahead,” Jezem said idly while he admired his purchases. What to do with fresh strawberries. . . ah, of course! He’ll dip them in sugar coating and set them atop a homemade cake. With bitter earth chocolate to balance out the sweet. Argam will be happy. The ferengi had more of a sweet mouth than a sweet tooth.

Jezem

Ren turned to Jezem, taking in the beings appearance with curiosity and nodded. “It depends on what sort of supplies they have on offer. I’m a ceramic artist, so my supplies can be pretty specific.”

Laxeth nodded, “That stall is very good, but a limited amount. They have a shop in the craft district where they have their full inventory. The Golden Kkaxx market, I have heard, carries everything. They just opened. So they might have something as well.”

Jeanette and Ren gazed at each other. “Worth checking out. Maybe they’ll have some locally derived clay as well,” Ren said. “It would be fascinating to work with,” they said, their eyes lighting up at the possibility of continuing a particular series here on Oed.

“You might head to the arts district,” Zineth, a Betazoid boy said. “Most of their studios are open to go in and watch or such. They might be able to tell you where to find certain things. Native clay, like most native resources might be hard to find, but the other artists should know.” Brisv pipped up, “Oh there is a shop…a block east of Paget square, they do pottery painting. Like a tourist thing. I bet they would know where to get it.”

Ren nodded. “An excellent suggestion, thank you. I’m sure they will be able to help.”

Reilly picked up two more jars of different fruit jams, paid, and then said to the students “I certainly wish you success. What you have done here is fantastic. Keep it up, okay?” and he gave them a friendly smile. He turned and looked at Mathis. “Ambassador, it was a pleasure seeing you again. I hope your time on Oed is as uneventful as possible.” and he chuckled and held out his hand.

Reilly, DD-CIA

The students smiled, trying not to look too excited over the compliment. “Thank you, Sir, we will. Hope you like the jams.”

Amusement touched her eyes as Jeanette shook his hand. “All things considered, something to hope for yes.”

Meanwhile, Ren paid for their items as well, elbowing Jessie gently. The teen gave a grunt before smirking at their per. Jessie chewed on the inside of his cheek and gave the teens at the booth a nod. “So, uh, I guess I’ll be seeing you around then.”

Kupi smiled, which was just disturbing, “I hope we see you in class or at the sports complex.”

Enger and Students

“Oh this all looks delicious,” a very pretty blonde haired, blue eyed woman walked up, wearing a blue Star Fleet uniform and a long knee length cardigan. She had a huge smile that took in everyone. She walked up to Reilly and leaned into his side for a moment, peeking in his bag. “Whatdya get?” She was holding an insulated cup that by the looks was a peach milkshake, with some kind of double ring that held a second cup. In the second was what looked like Hot Deltan Peppers, with a slight vinegary smell - the peppers had been pickled, and she was dipping the peppers into the milkshake.

Asimina, SFAMO

Jeannette smiled and gave the woman a bow of her head. “Hello,” she said.

~Ambassador Mathis & Family

Hannah stopped with a pepper half way to her mouth and looked at the woman who spoke. She recognized her, she had been informed about all the important personages on the colony, on the off chance she had to step in for Dr Fayth. She dropped the pepper back into the cup and straightened herself just slightly. She was off duty after all, and this wasn’t a formal function. It was a farmer’s market, and from the looks of it the woman was here with her family. Hannah graced her with a dazzling smile. Holding the cups kept Hannah’s hands still as she spoke, but that did nothing to cover up her voice and the muffled ennunciation. “Hello. I’m Hannah.”
