The little girl says "I was supposed to give Joe his meat from Bert the Butcher... But I didn't.. Would you mind seeing if Bert can give more for Uncle Joe...?" she says, looking down at her feet. "I had one job... on my first day... and I think I messed up."
What skill would I roll in order to apply makeup onto the little girl, to give her a fake black eye? Deception? Performance? I figure once we retrieve the lunch from Bert, we'll bring it back to the girl. We'll then use whatever materials are available to us to give the girl a fake black eye, and then bring her back with us to Uncle Joe, making Joe think that we "taught the girl a lesson" when in fact we just tricked him.
I figure a Japanese background character would be adept at applying makeup...since it was kinda their 'thing'.
Yeah, good idea! Probably just a dex or an int check? Id also allow performance :)
You approach a shack down the road which has a shade been propped open by a pole. A dwarf wearing a butcher's apron can be seen sizzling some kind of meat on what can be best described as a solar powered bbq. It has a large, well polished concave piece of metal reflecting the sun down onto a cast iron grill. You also see a number of sharpened machette's hanging on the wall.
Yasei notices some charcoal bits scattered on the ground.
"Welcome, what can I do for ye?" Says Bert in a cheerful tone.
"Hi! We're here to pick up some meat for Joe, down the street. A little girl was supposed to pick it up, but we're doing it for her. Is that ok?" Cora asks.
"Yeah, I did. I gave it to her because she was so weak. I thought Joe was paying me with food, but.. it was his lunch..." she blushes and looks at the ground.
"Your mum's sick?" Bert asks. "What's happened to her?" He looks concerned, kneeling down to talk to Sally.
"She got injured at work." Sally says. "Thugs broke in to the scrap yard and attacked, stealing some metal. Mum says it was nine toes' gang. She copped some scrap in her leg..." she said.
"The pretty red haired lady looked at it."
"... Can I help?" Bert asks you all, standing and wrapping a piece of Ankheg meat up in a cloth.
Danica sighed. "The wound's infected, I've tied it off to keep the infection from spreading." She started and then lowered her voice so Sally couldn't hear "But if we cant get rid of the infection she's going to have to lose the leg completely."
Bert nods, and picks up a cleaver which has been sitting in the heat. It’s blade white hot. “I know Suzie well.” He said. “Let’s go see what we can do for her.” He closes up shop and lets you walk him over to the hut.
he asks for someone to help him, (someone can roll medicine with adv)
"Aye, but I havn't seen much in the way of clean steel in this city. I'd need some thing to kill the infection like alcohol, a blade that's been sterilized by fire to cut away the flesh that cannot be saved, a sterilized needle with some thread to sew up the wound and some bandages." She replied grimly, doubting the likelihood of getting supplies like that.
"Ok." Cora says. "I'll help anyway I can..in, you know, a non-doctor..way?" She fumbles at the last part, trying to be helpful, but knowing her limits.

"Aww." Cora frowns, putting her hand on the girl's head. "Poor thing. Look." she says. "Tell us where Bert's is. We'll do it."
“He lives down the road. Only five houses down” she says, smiling through tearing up eyes.

Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?

Yasei will reach down and grab some of those loose chunks of charcoal and pocket them (Sleight of Hand: 8).

"Sally already came bye for Joe's lunch." He says. "... why are you guys comin' round for more?"
"CoS" Rumble- Tabaxi Shadow Monk
"Who's Sally?" Cora asks, looking at Bert, and the girl.
"Sally, the lass who started workin' for Joe. She came and got that lunch already." Bert explained. "Did somethin' happen?"
"CoS" Rumble- Tabaxi Shadow Monk
“Ah, right. The girl. That's her name.”
Cora turns to the girl.
“Sally. Did you give Joe's lunch to your mom? Tell us the truth so we can fix this."
"Yeah, I did. I gave it to her because she was so weak. I thought Joe was paying me with food, but.. it was his lunch..." she blushes and looks at the ground.

"Oh, wow, yeah!" Cora's eyes widened in surprise. "I didn't think this would be that easy, thanks so much!"
Danica sighed. "The wound's infected, I've tied it off to keep the infection from spreading." She started and then lowered her voice so Sally couldn't hear "But if we cant get rid of the infection she's going to have to lose the leg completely."
Cora looked at Danica expectantly. "Can..can you do that? You know how?"
Bert nods, and picks up a cleaver which has been sitting in the heat. It’s blade white hot. “I know Suzie well.” He said. “Let’s go see what we can do for her.” He closes up shop and lets you walk him over to the hut.

what do the rest of you do?

"Either way, it's gonna be painful. So, I'll need someone one to distract her, hold her down or both."
Cora gulps at the thought of how grizzly this might get. "I'll hold her down."
She suddenly felt a little queasy, and had no idea why.
