WHO: Anyone
WHEN: Sunday
WHERE: Farmer's Market then Flea Market (the one thing I didn't research I don't actually know if big ones occur on Sunday in Portland in this universe they do I am not liable, etc, etc.)
WHAT: Chit Chat & Shopping

At this point Andy has invited idk 3-4 people along with him to the Farmer's Market and Flea Market, along with people he already knows like Angel who go already. So I figured if you would like your character to have either been invited or seen people in the lobby putting on coats (it's not raining or snowing tho and we'll say for ease both are indoors situations..) and heading out they could join in.

I'll put up a header for interactions, I figure we could do quick lil dialogue only stuff unless anybody wants more. And a header for what they bought cause that's funny idk.

Expect usual things at a Farmer's Market, produce, meats, dairy products, fresh noodles, products like candles, soap, etc, food trucks and bakery booths, some local artists. If your character carries onto the flea market they can peruse alone or if they follow along with Andy he's probably giving a bit of a tour with context of like that's a good deal, that's not, that's antique, people love to collect those, etc. Flea market is primarily antique, vintage and used clothes, furniture, media, art, etc.

Lily dutifully trails after Francine, starting to pack the board game into her tote, then thinking better of it (the fruit), and carrying it as she walks. “Oh, thank you, I was just raising a point about the disorganization.” She glances toward Francine. “Did you find anything?”

Francine glances at Lily sidelong, then attempts to tuck one arm of her newly-purchased cardigan deeper into the recesses of her big-ass purse. Francine loves cute things (see: her warrior hamster) but feels embarrassed about it to the extent she goes to great lengths to hide, lie about, or otherwise obfuscate this truth about herself.

"Just something small," she sniffs, jamming her purse against the side of her torso with her elbow, clutching the handles fiercely. "For the weather. A cardigan. I don't actually like it, but it's been cold lately, you see."

“Oh,” Lily thinks she catches a glimpse of it as Francine tries to hide it from view, but she won’t bring it up if she doesn’t want her to see it. “I’m sure it’s nice,” she offers instead. “Even if you don’t like it, you have a great eye. I’m sure it’ll look good on you.” Francine had always been discerning, Lily doesn’t think she’d buy something simply for practicality.

"It will," nods Francine, now inspecting her nails. "And if it doesn't, I'll alter it so it does."

"Anyway, I saw you arrive here with some people from the building. That's nice. Making friends?"

She beams.

"Yeah, Andy invited me along, he's really cool." He was kind and practical, and Lily didn't feel like he was asking after her to make himself feel better about not knowing what to say to her. "Do you know him?"

"I took notes on him at the mixer." Francine taps one forefinger against her lower lip thoughtfully. "So you like him? Would you say he's a melancholic brunette or an excitable brunette?"

"Um," Lily seems to consider the question, though it's mostly from feeling awkward about filing Andy into category, especially when neither seem to fit him. He's not excitable, but he doesn't really seem melancholic, either. But he probably wouldn't have shown her that, either. They don't know each other.

"Is there a list for a chill brunette?" she asks instead.

Francine shares a conspiratorial look with Lily. "Someone who is 'chill' is frequently deceptive. Their sense of chill is compensatory, it's masking something." She smiles. "Come now. You know this."

Lily is not sure she knows this and wonders if Francine's alluding to something about her, but finds herself nodding anyway. "What kind of notes did you take at the mixer?"

"This stays between you and me, yes?" Carefully, so as not to expose her cardigan, Francine extracts a Miffy notebook from her giant-ass purse and starts to flip through it, reading. "Personality traits, both obvious and submerged. Preliminary matchmaking analyses. Favorite craft sodas."

Lily's awed by the amount of information that Francine has compiled from a single evening. She tries to keep her eyes on the headers only, not look at any of the data, because she feels like she's breaching the privacy of everyone in the building just by having this conversation. "What are you gonna do with all of this? Matchmake?"

"That's the idea." Francine snaps her Miffy notebook shut and winks at Lily. From her giant-ass purse, her phone emits a cute 'nyan~' sound. "Well, I should be off. I just got a ping that there's a coordinated cyberattack on one of my banks. Ta ta."

Francine gives Lily a little toodle-oo wave of her fingers and walks off a bit too calmly for someone who has to fend off a coordinated cyberattack.

Lily does not know what to do with or think of the information she has received during this conversation.
