[It was as good a day as any to start my latest scam. Jewelry was easy to come by in the mansion, thanks to the closets, but my marks didn't need to know that. No, I'd pass these off as one of a kind vender necklaces and earrings and promise a "lower price ( Read more... )

I was on my lunch break, takin' a stroll as I wasn't too hungry. To be honest, findin' a report of suspicion with my Baby's name on it had me a little on edge. What if, one of these days, I get caught "losin'" one of those reports? Even worse, what if my Baby gets caught? What would I do.

Safe to say, I was quite distracted when the peddler approached me.

[So Brennan is wandering outside, looking plenty sexy in her slinky red dress, black stilettos and tights with those red red lips. <3 And this sugar baby looooves her jewelry...]

[Hot mama! Oh, this broad's right up my alley. Not that my alley's terribly narrow, but she sure knows how to work that dress...]

Hola, bebé! Would you happen to be interested in some diamonds? Rubies, perhaps, to match that gorgeous dress?

[I show off my wares, jeweled necklaces draped over both hands.]

What a surprise! Suddenly I have a man with shaggy blond hair holding out two handfulls of sparkling jewelry at me.

Oh, hello. [She smiles pleasantly.]

I think I have plenty of rubies... Hmmm... [She pauses as she examines the necklaces he's holding.] What do you have for emeralds?

I've suddenly realized that my baby definitely needs to buy me a green dress...

[I spin round, returning to my wares. Of course I have emeralds! I'd be a terrible con man if I had forgotten the emeralds.]

Gorgeous, sparkling emeralds, just for you! Ah, they even match your eyes!

Hmmm...

They must be poor quality emeralds if they match my eyes. They're far too blue to match any emeralds.

Was that rude of me to say? No matter, it's the truth...

[She studies the necklaces he's holding, then points to one.]

I like this one. Do you have earrings to match?

[Damnit, spoke too soon!

But the sale isn't lost, apparently.[

Hmm, not on me! But I could go check my...extra stock.

[I hold up a finger, signaling for her to stay here while I head inside to a closet. No reason for her to know about that part of it. But I'm sure I can get something matching!

Of course I...can.

Well, alright, they're emerald earrings at least. I bring them back outside and hold them up for her to see. Sure, the necklace is gold and these are silver...that's...not the point!] There we are!

Hmmmm. Dashing away and leaving your customer waiting by herself seems like very bad business... I'm just about to wander on down the way when he comes scampering back.

And you have got to be kidding me.

[She sighs and looks at him accusingly questioningly.]

The metals don't match. Do you have any sets where they actually go together?

We-- well, you have to understand, bebé! I can only offer what I have!

Perhaps you'd be more interested in pearls. Everything goes with pearls!

[She's clearly disappointed.]

Mmmmmm. I guess. What do you have for pearls?

[She's shifting her feet like she wants to leave.]
