Video; A brief commercial interlude

[resenting]

[ In front of an unassuming store, Naofumi and Raphtalia stand next to each other awkwardly. They're dressed to the nines in costume formalwear, glitter and sequins blinding in the poor lighting. ]


I'll never make it to the ball if I can't cure my sanguis bloodlust!!"


[ In a flat, almost put upon tone: ]


Here, try this.


[ Raphtalia drinks the potion. One might almost believe her fake smile ]


I feel great! Just like an ordinary Prismal! Thank you, Mas-- Doctor Naofumi!


[ She twirls around, feigning complete recovery. ]


[ In a very bad monotone: ]


Heavenly Fowl Apothecary, for all of your potion needs.


No refunds, though.


[ With that, the video cuts out… but the sound stays on. ]


You could at least try to sound convincing!


Yeah yeah, the important thing is just that they hear the name.


"No refunds"? You don't have to let them know upfront that you're a cheapskate.


That was the most important part. Everything works, so if anyone wants a refund they're just trying to pull something anyway.

Wait- shit! How long as this thing been on!?


[ The feed abruptly cuts out completely ]

Is purchasing medicine from a healer considered a drug deal, too? [ Raphtalia tries to keep her emotions in check. It doesn't sound like this girl is really trying to insult Naofumi or his business. ] I'd be glad to help you with the potion, or direct you to the apothecary himself.

..Yeah? Why do you think they call places with pharmacies "drugstores"?

[ She's pretty sure it's not even something people try to hide most of the time.. ]

If you have a storefront, I can just go there.

[ She has someone she lives with who doesn't yet have any ability to repel bullets like she does, she doesn't want to bring anyone there until she knows them better. ]
