"What my brother means to say, is that anything helps, not matter how small. This means a lot to us, even if it's just to help with the first payment."
"I see. " she gave a small nod. It seemed this one thought things through unlike the other two. "Well why don't we talk about it over lunch. It may not be a whole lot but as I said earlier, you're welcome to stay. " she met his gaze. "I'm would like to know what it is that you two boys are selling."
"Lunch is ready?" immediately she moved to the table, grabbing Atlas and Vane by the arm. "Come on. She makes the best sandwiches."

Vane nodded, "Of course."
"Lunch is ready? Come on. She makes the best sandwiches."
Vane blinked at the sudden movement, following her with a small smile, while Atlas laughed and grinned. "Does she really?" the youngest asked, taking a seat. His brother sat beside of him, setting the bag on the ground near his feet.

"Of course."
"Lunch is ready? Come on. She makes the best sandwiches."
"Does she really?"
Brianna followed them with her eyes before she shook her head. "Nonsense. My sandwiches aren't anything spectacular. " Following them she went to the stove and started placing the food on plates. "We have ham or turkey. Which do you boys prefer?" Asks as she sits a pitcher and some cups in the middle of the table.
Aviva grinned at him, nodding furiously. "Don't listen to her. She does something to the meat that makes it really good."

"Nonsense. My sandwiches aren't anything spectacular. We have ham or turkey. Which do you boys prefer?"
"Ham, please," Vane replied, while his brother said, "Turkey."
"Don't listen to her. She does something to the meat that makes it really good."
Both the brothers laughed, and Atlas replied, "We'll take your word for it."

"Ham, please," "Turkey."
Brianna sat a hot turkey and cheese in front of Aviva and Atlas. She looked stared at what was left, taking into account that there was only one ham. Picking it up she sat it down in front of Vane. As she sat she cut the turkey sandwich in half before grabbing a side. "Enjoy your meal. " she nibbled on her half before looking up. "So what exactly do you do?" the question was directed more towards Vane than Atlas, but she was curious nonetheless.
"We'll take your word for it."
Aviva watched her confused, before she bowed her head a moment. Saying a quick prayer she started munching on her sandwich. She had never seen her cousin eat turkey-she always preferred ham.

"Enjoy your meal. So what exactly do you do?"
"Thank you," Vane replied and opened his mouth to say more, but Atlas jumped in.
"We sell stones and jewels," Atlas answered quickly, taking a bite.
"We're stone workers," Vane clarified, shooting Atlas a look. "We find stones and precious gems and either sell them as individual pieces, or we'll inlay them into metal or make jewelry. Inlay is becoming more popular, since knights and ladies and lords and higher officials are looking for plating that have the jewels set into the base, but we can't quite manage large inlays yet without a booth or shop."

Thank you,"
Brianna looked at him a moment gaze calculating. "Your welcome. And thank you for being so polite. "
"We sell stones and jewels,"
"We're stone workers, We find stones and precious gems and either sell them as individual pieces, or we'll inlay them into metal or make jewelry. Inlay is becoming more popular, since knights and ladies and lords and higher officials are looking for plating that have the jewels set into the base, but we can't quite manage large inlays yet without a booth or shop."
Brianna's head lifted a little at the mention of stones. "That's very interesting." she looks down a moment, recollecting her younger years. When her gaze lifted again she turned her eyes upon Vane, examining the way he looked when he spoke. "You sound happy to have a job like that. "

"That's very interesting. You sound happy to have a job like that. "
Vane smiled lightly. "It's in our heritage. Our mothers was a Stonesworn, and our father a Northsman. I took the love of stones from our mother."
Atlas studied the two, the grinned, seeing something between them.

"It's in our heritage. Our mothers was a Stonesworn, and our father a Northsman. I took the love of stones from our mother."
"She must have been an amazing woman then. Not many take interest in things such as stones. " She took another small bite before pouring herself lemonade. "Do you have a favorite?"
Aviva munched on the other half before her foot flew forward, only to nudge Atlas's leg. Laughter could be present in her eyes as she flicked her eyes to the door. The only thing left was an excuse for the both of them to leave.

"She must have been an amazing woman then. Not many take interest in things such as stones. Do you have a favorite?
Vane shrugged, settling back in his chair. "I prefer zircon or onyx, but tiger's eye is high on my list."
Atlas glanced at Aviva, then nudged Vane. "I hate to run, but I need to go get another string for my lute." He stood, giving a small bow to Bri. "Thank you for the food."
"Alone?" Vane frowned, looking at him.
"Well, not exactly," Atlas shrugged, then looked at Aviva, "if she wanted to come along."

"I prefer zircon or onyx, but tiger's eye is high on my list."
"Tigers eye is pretty. I wouldn't say it was top on my list though."
"I hate to run, but I need to go get another string for my lute." He stood, giving a small bow to Bri. "Thank you for the food."
"Alone?"
"Well, not exactly," if she wanted to come along."
Aviva looked at him before smiling. "I would love to. Can I Bri?" she looked over with hopeful eyes, already standing.
Brianna glanced at her an eyebrow raised. She gave a shrug before standing herself. She made her way to a small pouch that was sitting in a kitchen drawer, before pulling out some coins."While you're out I want you to go ahead and pay for the booth. " She walked over, raising a hand before Aviva said anything. "Stop by the market to pick up some grapes. " Reluctantly she placed the money in her cousins hand. She watched as Aviva bounced out the door. "And you." Points at Atlas. "Don't let her spend it all."

Atlas smiled and bounced back a few steps after Aviva. "You have my word, she won't spend it all!"
"And stay out of trouble," Vane added, watching as his brother ran out.
"This is the first time I've seen him relaxed," Atlas joked, elbowing Aviva. "Think they may have something going on? Maybe love at first sight?" He laughed as they walked down the street.

"You have my word, she won't spend it all!"
"And stay out of trouble,"
Brianna sighed as they both disappeared, glancing at Aviva's plate. Not everything was gone- usually she cleaned the plates clean. "Does you're brother always run off unexpectedly?" gaze lifting, she arched an eyebrow. She could tell something was up.
"This is the first time I've seen him relaxed," Think they may have something going on? Maybe love at first sight?"
"Really?" she gave a small laugh at his questions. "Maybe, although I don't know about love at first sight. For as long as I can remember I've never seen her with anyone. But don't take my word for it. She did give him the ham sandwich, and she hates turkey. " she looked around. "I know we have a few errands, but what are we really going to do?"

"Well, I guess we'll going to go ahead and take care of the booth, and who knows what else," Atlas shrugged. "The city's big enough to find something to do."

"Does you're brother always run off unexpectedly?"
Vane's eyes remained on the door as his brows furrowed before he sighed. "Sometimes he'll get a wild hair and run off, but not always."

Aviva nodded. "I'm following you. I really don't know my way around yet. " A huge smile crossed her face and she turned to him quickly. "There's a forest nearby right? Lets go there afterwards!"

Vane's eyes remained on the door as his brows furrowed before he sighed. "Sometimes he'll get a wild hair and run off, but not always."
Brianna's gaze landed on him and something clicked in her head. "Aviva..." shaking her head she looked at him. "There trying to set us up. Or at least she is. I don't know your brother so I can't tell if it was a joint effort or not. "
