>Explain the MCPDD's actions!
"It keeps appearing where it shouldn't. I bet it's just hiding its power from you. Watching."
"... right. Here, lemme just give you an address... when I was still in anger therapy sessions, I had to pick up a little prescription from the pharmacy down the street. They probably have something for your anxiety situation too."
>It's probably just someone pranking you.
You're way too optimistic.
>Do you have stuff to reduce psychic headaches?
"Whenever I use my crystal, I get some feedback. It makes it hard to use it as much as I'd like; anything you can do?"
"Ah! You must be talking about psionic backlash," says the employee. Nicolas likes the term 'feedback' better, but whatever. "No, we don't. The entire field's very new, and we're still finding out all the ins and outs of magic and psionics. I'm sorry."
"Speaking of psionics, I don't know if it's magical, but this bread is pretty weird. I'm sure most bread doesn't have glowing runes on it."
"... I'll check it out," says the girl. She takes it out back. She returns a little bit later, handing it to Nicolas. "That's... interesting. It definitely registers. It's not quite like anything we've analyzed before, though. I honestly can't tell you what it does. The data should be very interesting to look over. Since we offer a cash incentive for new discoveries, let me wire some over to your account."
Nicolas also mentions that his magic-detecting glasses didn't detect the bread, and might be faulty. They are beta, after all. She takes down a report and gives him the latest version.
Nic's WEALTH level rises from AFFLUENT to WEALTHY.
>What magic stuff do you have for sale?
"Let's talk business," says Nicolas. "What do you sell here?"
"For you... well, we have weapon and armour upgrades. What with the world being taken over, that's probably not a bad investment. We can actually upgrade a lot of things, if you have any particular requests. Except for that psychic crystal. You're on your own there, buddy."
"Any other items?"
"We have a bottomless can of cheese whiz, and a two-way radio that uses psychic waves rather than radio waves. We also have cure potions, thaumic disruptors, and that psychic dippy bird that nobody wants to buy."
As with most psychic stuff, upgrades and items cost a lot of money. Should Nicolas get anything?
