OOC: Likewise for me and work, plus the trouble with the Suscribed Threads link has me all flustered. I'll try to get Colm's response together this evening.

A Plan Comes Together
After a moment's thought, Ser Colm's expression clears somewhat as he appears to come to a decision.
"Sirs, Lady, the price of a meal at An Glúin Beach is one Noble on the average, which includes everything other than drinks and gratuities for the waiter and the chef. For an additonal Penny I can arrange a suitably fancy gift certificate and have it ready by this afternoon, if you'll only tell me what you wish scribed upon it."

OOC: I have no idea how much money I have, or about how much anyone else in the group has, but that sounds like a fair price to me. If I can pay it without crimping my change purse too severely, I'd be willing to fork over 2 Nobles per meal for two meals, so we can have him fabricate 2 certifcates for us, but we'll have to know names for both, I guess. Or we could have him leave the name blank so we could fill it in later? Thoughts? Ideas? Somebody please save me??
IC: "That is a fair price, Sir! We thank you for your help. Let us discuss the matter for a moment, and we'll let you know our decision."

[sblock=OOC]Nobles are gold, Pennies are silver, Farthings are copper. A fine meal in an ordinary establishment usually runs about 2 Pennies, so he's asking around 5 times the price - but this is a very upscale establishment, so he's probably not trying to cheat you.
Cairn figures the man is scared for the same reason the waitress was - the Bairdéir are unpopular right now, and to be seen openly helping them might get one in hot water. It's possible he's charging a bit over normal so it will look like he's trying to hinder your efforts.[/sblock]

Cairn will whisper to Gavril so that no one else can hear, "That sounds a little bit high, even for this place. Do you think we should pay it, or will you make him a counteroffer on my behalf, since I already spoke out of turn and prelimarily agreed to his price? Or, maybe you are tired of this whole stupid idea? I know that, personally, I'm ready to sink my axes into something again. Maybe you can stir this fool to anger and then I can use him as a practice dummy?

Also keeping his voice low, "Well hells, lets just pay the man and be done with it. We'll bill it to the kingdom anyway. As you say, this becomes tedious, I am eager to foil this plot and don't wish to delay over a few coppers. Let's tell him to do the certificate and leave it blank."

Whispering to Gavril: "Very well, my friend."
Regular voice to Ser Colm: "It is agreed then! Make us a suitable certificate, only leave a blank space for the name, because we are not yet sure who the winner will be. We'll send someone around this mid-afternoon to collect the completed certificate and your bill."

Looking distinctly relieved, Ser Colm replies:
"Very well, sir - send you man 'round anytime after mid-day, and I'll have the documents ready.
Is there anything else I can get for you? A meal for yourselves?"
