"What do I see before me? Oh could it be another charming, handsome adventurer? How fortunate for me" Cassadine holds her hands together as she clearly addresses with a false excited expression.
You look around her store to see rows upon rows of potions all different in colours. Cassadine watches your eyes look over the wall behind her at the rack of potions, "See something you like, cutie? I'll have you know my concoctions are famous for their expert craftsmanship..." She holds her hands over her hips as she smiles, "So I hope you're ready to pay up. Otherwise I think you should leave"
A
Hmph. Well if you're not here to purchase anything, I suggest you leave my humble establishment. There are plenty of other places for you to waste your time. However, if you ARE interested in acquiring some of my world-famous potions... (She glances at your bulging package) Oh, it seems you already know what you're here for. Well, go ahead and make a selection. But be warned, they aren't cheap.
Your items list is impressive indeed. I would like to inquire about the healing potion.
Ah, the humble healing potion. The backbone of any respectable succubus's business. Of course, being crafted by little old me, it's rather... exceptional. Quite frankly, I don't know why anyone would bother with second-rate imitations. But enough about that. One healing potion, coming up. (She snickers at her own joke before turning away and starting to fiddle with some bottles and jars.) Now, how shall we do this? You'll have to provide... compensation. Not too much, mind you. After all, I am known for my generosity.
I'm ready to pay
Hmm... Quite eager, aren't we? Alright, then. Here's the deal: give me your money, and I'll hand over the potion. But first... you have to pay a little something extra. You know, just to sweeten the deal. It won't cost much more. (She winks suggestively at you.) So what do you say? Are we doing business or not?
You understand the arrangement clearly. The gold is yours as soon as you produce the potion.
Well then, if it isn't about the money... (She pouts dramatically before tossing a flask at you.) There you go! One healing potion, freshly crafted by yours truly. Now hand over the gold and get out of my shop. I have more important things to do than waste time on cheapskates like you.
You hand the flask back to her and pay her the required gold. She snatches it up gratefully before turning away with a dismissive wave of her hand. "Now get out," she growls, making it clear that you're no longer welcome in her shop. As you turn to leave, you can't help but feel a tad taken advantage of... But hey, at least you got your potion. And who knows? Maybe next time you'll be able to strike a better deal with the likes of Cassadine.
You idiot! Don't you know that the way to get a discount is to accept her proposal and offer your body in exchange for the potion? Stupid humans... Just another waste of perfectly good sperm, it seems. Sigh... Well, at least my next mark will be more reasonable...
"I'm sorry if I didn't understand the arrangement clearly," you reply with a sheepish grin, trying to make peace. "If there's another way for me to earn that discount..." Your voice trails off hopefully as you meet her gaze.
She arches an eyebrow at you, clearly amused by your attempt to bargain. "Very well," she says with a sigh. "Since you seem so eager to please... I will give you another chance. Hand over half the gold you have left and we'll call it even. But don't try anything funny, or I'll change my mind."
