"You haven't seen the smaller sizes of parchment have you?"

Delaney gave a nonchalant shrug in response to Gemma's insistence that he had his own things to do. He didn't really mind, but he wouldn't needlessly force his assistance on someone either. "That would be my guess, but I'm sure she will be back out soon if you really need her. I doubt she would leave the shop unattended for long." That only invited shoplifting and other behavior that he doubted the shopkeeper would welcome. Hm.

"A short story, aye? I thought I saw some loose parchment when I walked in. But are you sure you wouldn't prefer to write that in a journal?" There were some nice ones on the shelf in the aisle they were currently in, but he didn't know about writing prose. Perhaps parchment was better.
