“I may,” Santiago said and faced away from the girl. He went through glass cabinets taking out small bolts and other mechanical items. He set them out on the counter in front of her. “This looks to be about it. Any of that look right?”

( Should Quinn have been raised in the castle? So she knew Scarlet from a young age? )

Sure!

Quinn looked through the box, her blond hair falling around her face. Her finger's tapped on the counter, matching the same rhythm as the watch next to them. She picked three up.
"These should work." Quinn replied. "How much?"

(Guys I don't know what to do right now! Harper's just kind of awkwardly waiting for someone to direct her to somewhere she can eat. XD Harper is my awkward cinnamon puff.)

Erm… maybe she could… idk, bump in to someone [literally]?

(Like who??)

“Lost?” Chelsea asked Harper, a playful smile on her lips.

Harper turned to see the owner of the voice. "Umm……….kind of."

Santiago watched her for a moment and set the other items back into their case once she found the ones she needed. “Just two coins,” He said.

“Do tell.” Chelsea said, she brushed off any dirt on her dress.

"Two. . " Quinn mumbled. That was a low price compared to other shops she had been to. She pulled out two coins and placed them on his counter. "So, what's your name?"

"I'm just looking for someplace to eat. But the queen destroyed all of the places that I usually go to."

Willow walked into a resource shop and stood next to the counter, awkwardly waiting for someone to ask her if she needed help.

(Alright.)

“Santiago Navarro,” He said with a smile. He took two coins and motioned for the girl to wait a moment. He walked over to the girl who had just walked in. “Can I help you?”

Willow smiled, "Yes. I'm looking for gardening gloves?"

“Gardening gloves? I think there may be a pair of two in the back, let me check,” Santiago said, going into a back room. He emerged a few minutes later and set two different pairs of gloves down on the counter. “This is what I have.”

Willow tried them on, finding that the blue pair fit perfectly. She smiled and pulled out some coins, noticing that the flowers in her hair were falling onto the floor.

Santiago crouched down and picked up the flowers, handing them back to her. “That’ll just be two coins,” he said, smiling.

"Okay." Willow took the flowers and buried them into her hair, certain that the curls would hold them back in place. "Sorry about the flowers, I don't know how they get into my hair." she handed the man who towered above her two coins and slipped the gloves onto her hands.

Scarlet ran into the Great Hall and nearly screamed. Bodies littered the ground, and blood coated the floor and furniture. The air stank with the smell of death. She turned, heaving and throwing up all over a potted plant, by daring to look at any of the mutilated faces. Turning around and almost crashing into the stuffed statue of the White Rabbit, she sprinted from the room, jumping over severed limbs.

Santiago chuckled and stuffed the coins into his pocket. “It’s alright. Fond of gardening?” He asked in a curious tone.

"Yep." Willow smiled, "It's gratifying."

Santiago nodded slowly. “It’s a good hobby to have, I’ve heard.”

"More like lifestyle." Willow tucked a curl behind her ear and looked up at the man, "You're really tall."
