Things in the magical curio shop
RE: Things in the magical curio shop
#11
* A pocket size guide to English As She Is Spoke.
* A life-sized, feminine robotic body finished in bright chrome. Though missing the head and neck area, it appears to be unfinished rather than damaged.
* A selection of large, cut and polished semiprecious stones, with intricate designs somehow embedded into them. They are packed into retail boxes labelled like computer components, but the language is unfamiliar.
* A crate labelled "Little Eureka Pole Stretcher." It shakes and growls like a very angry big cat is trying to get out.
* A gallon size, dome-topped trash can painted to look like R2-D2, along with a few more in other colour combinations.
* A small, indistinct carving of a robed humanoid, which appears to be a kanji stamp when the base is examined. It has an ominous feeling, yet somehow makes you feel powerful simply by holding it.
* Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo, by W. Baruffio. It's in the rack of fantasy books due to the magical tone of the writing, but mainly contains tongue twisters and pronunciation exercises.
* A case of 307 Ale, bearing customs stamps from Argo and Space Station Three.
* An apparently empty shelf with a card announcing that post holes are 10% off.
* A alto saxophone with a worn and battered carrying case. The instrument itself is in excellent condition.
* A single bottle of 1944 Goût de la liberté. It is inside a thick, locked display case with its own built-in environmental controls. No price is listed.
* A collection of black and white bucket helmets made out of some kind of plastic. They are only offered as a set, together with a pair of drumsticks that have leather padded striking ends.
* A bin of Sunnydale Thrillin' Grillin' cooking tools. The barbecue forks look particularly sharp.
* A cardboard box containing several WWII-style gas masks and a supply of filter cartridges. They appear to be freshly manufactured.
* A box of small paper packets labelled "Instant water."
* A mannequin wearing a brightly polished set of lorica segmentata armor with matching scutum, manica, and greaves. The helmet is of a much older Greek style with a horsehair crest, however, and the displayed weapon is an even more ancient Naue II pattern sword. The padded leather and cloth items that would be worn under such equipment to prevent chafing are not in evidence.
* A chimneysweep's brush, with several additional threaded segements that can be attached to extend the handle.
* A horn as long as a tall man, which must gave been harvested from a truly colossal animal. It has a mouthpiece at the small end, and is engraved with images of dragons in flight.
* A wooden butt (barrel) with "Watney's" burned into the side. It is stained red.
* A small terrarium containing an albino tarantula.
* A set of climbing gear, including body harness, hammer and pitons, carabiners and ascender, two long coils of rope, and clawed overshoes.
* An upright cabinet containing several bolts of volute patterned fabric.
* A caulk gun with a pair of bundled cartridges. One is labeled "Instant Hole" and the other "Instant Hole Patch."
* A collection of authentic looking lightsaber hilts. A card notes that batteries are not included.
* An insulated pizza delivery bag, with a kabuki-ninja logo and text that proudly proclaims "Delivered anywhere in 20 minutes or less!"
* A sundial with an intricate spring-powered system of gears in the base to ensure it is adjusted to tell the correct time every day of the year.
* An orb that fits comfortably in your hand, covered in opalescent enamel. Holding it gives you an electrifying energetic feeling.
* A cabinet full of framed posters. Most are of various movie or comic book characters, interspersed with a sprinkling of mages, dragons, and cubist, art nouveau, or art deco prints.
