[Today Matt is annoyed. He opened a bag of sour skittles and found they tasted like corn. It was bad enough the book he was reading randomly decided to translate to Swahili. Now his favorite food ever decided to betray him as well. ;A;

You'll find him in the bazaar, scouting out a new bag. Cause he can't live without his skittles.]

[OIC. He pockets a bag of candy and picks up a jewelry box and begins sifting through it. Hm. Maybe he should find something for Jael. He hasn' seen her in a while, so this'll just give him an excuse 83]

I can help if you like.

[Hmm. Well it's not like it wouldn't be any less special if someone else found it first, and besides it's not like he has to tell Talia that he's not the one who found it.]

Alright, sure mon. I'll take whatevah help I can get.

[madteos]

[Matt continues digging through the jewelry. He's found a few interesting things. But so far no bell. At least not the bell Kev described.]

I'm Matt by the way.

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

Da name be Kevas.

[He hears a jingle and his heart stops. Is that it?

...Nope. Cat collar.]

How can a bell be so fuckin' hard to find!

[madteos]

What do you -- [Oh wait he said she] does she need a bell for anyway?

[Matt sets the jewelry box aside and begins digging through another shelf. Kevas was right. This is ridiculous. After a minute, he sighs.]

Mind if I ask you something?

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

It be a reminduh of sometin' special to her from her home.

[Or at least that's what Vanyel told him.

Kevas takes a step away from the table before he gets too annoyed.]

Go ahead mon.

[madteos]

[He feels ridiculous for asking this. Really ridiculous. It's not like Matt's never had a girlfriend before. But geeze they were silly and shallow and they didn't mean a damn thing to him.

Now? Now he wants his gift to mean something cause the person he's giving it to is pretty special to him.]

How do you know when it's the perfect gift? I mean there could be twenty different silver bells here. How would you even know which is the right one to give her?

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

[Aw, that's cute. This guy actually thinks Kevas knows what he's doing.

He scratches his chin as he tries to answer Matt's question.]

I don't know mon. It just be a feelin' in my gut. When I see I'll know it.

[Kevas grabs the cat collar he found earlier.]

I mean I could give her dis. It be havin' a liddle bell on it. Could just pull it off da collah and give it to her, but it just wouldn't feel right joo know?

[madteos]

[You're doing better than he is, Kev. Matt listens, biting his cheek for a second.]

Yeah. So I guess you've got to have something specific in mind then.

[What would Jael like. Hm.]

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

[He tosses the collar back onto the table.]

I at least be havin' a good idea. Why joo be askin'?

[madteos]

Oh. Well I--...

[Augh, Kev. He's embarrassed enough as it is.]

Just curious.

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

Alright mon.

[Because he totally believes that.

Kevas starts silently picking through the jewelry again.]

Might wanna her or her friends what she be likin'. Or him if dat be joor t'ing.

[madteos]

...

[Matt sighs.]

She's a girl. And I kind of would like it to be a surprise. I guess.

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

[Kevas chuckles to himself.]

Whatchu be knowin' 'bout her mon?

[madteos]

[Matt's quiet for a minute while he goes over what he knows about Jael. He smiles.]

She likes flowers. I should bring her flowers.

[TO THE FLOWER DECK!]

[pimp-hat.livejournal.com]

Den whatchu standin' round here fuh? Get down dere.

[When did he start playing matchmaker for everyone?]

[madteos]

Thanks.

[Hopefully he won't chicken out between here and there.]
