"Hmmmm... well, Granny, I've got about ten gold to spend- what should I get if I wanted some fun contraptions to fit with arrows? Hey, Dain, would you mind helping me find something good over here?"

OMG!! ROFL

((On my phone, so don't have mouse over, but that was with the advantage?!))

sadly, yes. 

 (wow)

Liber takes note of the magical sparks, and makes a note to investigate the source when possible.

"Arrows? Granny Boom Boom isn't some weapons dealer, I deal in mechanical curiosities and finely honed devices, not crude things meant to injure! You see something you want,  you let me know, but you'll probably have more luck at one of the shops that deals in that sort. For ten gold, I'd wager they could load you down in arrows."

She eyes you and your companions up and down, gives  a bit of a sniff, and turns to deal with another customer.

((You can still find usable stuff here, if you are still wanting to spend the 10 gp.))

I'd still like to buy some stuff, but only five gold.

Mialee tries to find some spring loaded containers that will open suddenly if struck, and aside from that just buys whatever looks interesting to mess with later.

She seems a bit mollified that you do end up purchasing something, and you depart with your materials.

Shouting rises over the sounds of haggling shoppers and the sizzle of cooking street food. A shrill voice cries out, “Give it back, you little thief!”

“No, you’re the thief!” replies a youngster with a panicked squeak. An instant later, a frantic kobold bursts from the crowd clutching a sizable bunch of green onions. A flustered gnome woman chases him. The young kobold is too focused on the gnome chasing him to be paying attention to where he's going, and he blunders into Dain's solid form and sprawls to the ground. The gnome catches up to him shortly, and grabs hold of the green onions, trying to tug them from his grip. The two of them go back and forth, shouting and screeching, the crowds drawing back from the pair and your party as they watch the ruckus.

Tandor starts to walk over, to see if he can render any aid.

HOLD IT, Tandor!  Gilbert's mental voice is a shout.  You're not here to play hero.  This could be just a distraction to separate you from the others.

The cat licks it's paws and looks around, then repeats the process.  Tandor returns to Dain's side, his own eyes roving.

Perception 12

Also, the kid smells like shrimp. Perhaps he knows where some can be found.

The cat adds.

15 insight.

Liber takes a moment to determine who's telling the truth at the moment.

Mialee quickly whispers to the others.

"Do you guys know how we can call the watch? We should probably try and make ourselves scarce before the contact is scared off."

She quickly steps back and looks around for the assistant, and to see if there's anyone nearby who is in a position to solve the issue.

16 : perception 

Liber's having a hard time figuring out what's going on, they both seem convinced the other is the theif.

Mialee looks around, and realizes she's seen no sign of any sort of watch while they've been here.

The kobold kid scrambles free, still clutching the green onions, and ducks behind Dain, putting the dwarf between him and the irate gnome. She circles one way, he circles the other.

"Now ye be holding it a blasted minute." Dain says, staring down both of the two onion people. He has to swivel his head from one to the other to do so, as they circle around him. "Whose blasted onions be those, and who the blast be ye two anyway." He puts his hands on his hips as he plants his feet and looks between the two.

"They're mine!"

"No they aren't, you thief!"

"Thief?! You're the thief!"

It devolves into yelling and accusations from there as they circle Dain, shouting at one another.

((If Dain planting his hands on his hips is him trying to take charge of the situation, give me an Intimidation check?))

(should we keep the onions away from both of them until the little folk have cooled their heads?)

The kobold darts away from Dain and puts Liber between him and the angry gnome.

"You Tyenmo's are a bunch of sneaks and thugs!"

"How dare you, you little rip! As if a Xungoon has any room to talk!"

The gnome fakes to Liber's left, then circles to his right, catching the kobold off guard as she snatches the onions away from him. He tackles her to the dust, and they roll about at the dragonborn's feet, wrenching the green onions back and forth.

(Dain's intimidation check is a 2... Rolled a 3 and had a -1 modifier. He is not overly intimidating...)

"Should we just leave? Or... Tandor, maybe you and Liber grab the kobold, Dain and I can take the gnome, and we can try to figure this out that way? I'm- not sure about my abilities socially after the disastrous shopping incident."

((STR (Athletics) if you want to pull the pair apart, advantage if whoever is making the roll is being helped by another party member, if you exceed the DC by 5, you can hold whoever you remove grappled instead of just separating them.))
