She DID keep looking at the flashing lips though. Really, what were they FOR?

"Could be used as a decoration," he said, and then he released the pair of lips and let them come to a stop just where they'd been before at the top of the cart. "...and some have found other uses." He shrugged. "Not sure what, but I've heard that, I have. Guess it would all depend on the buyer."

Slick turned his attention back to the boy, his eyes narrowed and lips twisted into a frown. "Now I ain't looking fer no trouble, boy," he remarked. He eyed the kid next to them, the paying customer. His brown eyes scanned the area, taking in the others who may or may not be paying witness to this little exchange. "I didn't run 'er over. She was in my way, kid." ...but even as he spoke, he summoned the red lips back down from the top of the cart and handed them to the expectant mother. "I'll be on my way. Got other people to sell to."

"Two galleons, sixteen sickles, and eighteen knuts," Slick answered. As she gave that total, his narrowed eyes flickered toward the expectant mother and her wand happy husband. "It's a sell then," he said, smiling a toothless grin as he looked back toward the paying customer. He summoned a second pair of lips from the top of the cart.
"I want to worry about it," Copernicus glanced back at Celandine, but he put the wand away. It wasn't even about the goofy lips - it was about keeping Cela safe. And about winning, a bit.

He accepted the proffered balloon without a hint of chagrin at taking something for nothing, and without even feeling guilty that the next man in line had to pay double. He had to know that nearly 3 galleons was way over priced.

"Here you go, Shiny. Your very own... gigantic kiss." And he followed it with a kiss to her temple. "Let's go get you something to eat."
