RULES | MUSE | MUN | ASK
She is going to buy out the entire convention just you watch.
Her MONEY stat is infinite even if she is on team MC this time.
PLAYABLE VALERIE DLC
"Getting stuck in prison because of the law? Imagine."
Shoulda bought one of her Get Out of Jail Free cards.
Someone still hasn’t spoken to her sister about a certain something that really should be talked about.
@purrency has started following you.
" you know... i'm not really a cat person, but... i AM curious what wares you're carrying. "
There was that drop in the atmosphere that would give any normal person, or monster, pause. Valerie couldn't help but have her ear twitch at the sound of a rather deep voice adressing her.
She turns, knowing that feeling but unfamiliar to it. It felt like when Belladonna walked around, but with more forboding electricity.
"Well, I am not much of a wolf person." She answered, giving the stranger a mental look over.
Much taller, adventurer vibe -which explained why the shop changed its tune in a blink- someone Aaravi may complain about taking her brooding spot in the corner of a tavern. Oberlin's were at the top of the list of people not to be fucked with. Yet this guy matched that kind of vibe. What also stood out was this was a wolf that was not part of the Wolfpack. An entirely new entity to her.
She could play nice.
"You know what they say about curiosity and cats, though." She finished, pulling over a huge chest filled with all kinds of wares that would befit a potential new customer. "Forgive my guessing, but you seem more like the bartering type rather than the direct exchange of money for goods type."
Hi everyone I am kind of alive if u want a starter like the post pls reply for multis and side blogs luv u all
Regular Customer Oz is just gonna come up and kiss his goth boss gf
Regular customer was right. If anything, Oz was allowed during open or closed hours whenever Valerie was out with the shop up. She could tell when he was around as well, learning his precise way of walking.
"Oh hey stranger-"
Oh that was kiss. Kiss that got purrs out of her immediately, followed by a gentle headbutt and even louder purring.
And... yeah she was just now a purring, happy catgirl. Congrats Oz, you win today.
“Someone should give me pets. For free. Not in a creepy way either.”
She had a plan.
Valerie is wandering around with a rather old looking top hat.
“Name in the hat. This is not a prank, nor is it a drill, fey bargain, or demon soul selling third party pyramid scheme.”
I always giggle about people trying to scare or threaten Valerie. She is the nigh impossible to kill shopkeeper trope but she alsy has several connectioms to back her up. Kidnap her instead? Hold her for ransom? Thats just an inpromptu break becauae there is one important factor a lot of people forget about, and thats just how tenacious Vera can be.
You do not make an example of an Oberlin, they make examples of you. Valerie is not only aware of how close she is to her sister, but the amount of willingness to do anything Vera will commit to. Valerie never worries becauae in this scenario; Vera always wins. She has an empire at her disposal and Hell, Heaven and the Purgatory inbetween forbid if she has to do it herself. Valerie has seen some shit. Vera is willing to do dark blood rituals for Prom Queen, just imagine what her sister is going to do if Val is in trouble.
Now say Vera isn't in the picture. Thats fine, Valerie has Aaravi, her best friend and best customer. Aaravi has protagonist plot armor bullshit powers and is the Slayer. Nothing else stands much of a chance when the one other person can go toe to toe with Z'Gord trying to end realities. Plus its very easy to bribe the woman I mean, Valerie has shit she dont need. Easy quest request. At least Aaravi might kill you quickly. Vera sure as fuck will not.
So what if those two somehow are either unavailable? Val cannot hold her own and needs help?
Theres Papa Oberlin.
You do not fuck. With Papa Oberlin.
The gentlest giants make the worst enemies.
Oh and if the roles were reversed? Greed is not Valerie's greatest sin.

“Shop’s closed today on principle.
“Me and the gang had other things to get done today. Our own kind of ‘deals’ if you will.”
Like making sure people were well behaved while shopping around town.
Valerie is capable of doing all the dumb cat shit you see normal cats do, but no one knows she has does this at all except her immediate family. Vera also isn’t going to let the information out on her life. These things are, but not limited to:
having late night snacks on top of cabinets at 3am
randomly swatting lights or laser pointers
getting spooked easily by objects suddenly being there
napping in really stupid positions
having no object permeance when she’s sick/overtired/drunk
If you know she does this you’re either stupidly close to Valerie or you are going to have a visit from Vera very, very soon.
Also ourple.
Ourple squad rise up.
So according to one of the Roadtrip conversations with Valerie:
She had no idea what Zoe's totem was when Joy gave it to her.
Joy did not tell Valerie what the fuck it was either on purpose, or forgot to after the timeline bullshit because tired as fuck.
She had to do research on it and decided afterwards that it was too dangerous to deal with and sold it to the Colour Squad. She sold it because it was too dangerous for her to keep. Joy this was probably a need to know basis thing why did you let the profit loving Oberlin have it?
Given Valerie is an Oberlin, she was smart enough to figure out on her own that the totem was a being of ultimate destruction and it wasn't going to do her any good. She couldn't do anything with it and wasn't willing to risk her or her family's lives for it. Given she sees everyone at Spooky High and knows far too much shit because of NPC status, I am willing to bet that she absolutely took a gamble on the Colour Crew to actually make better of the situation because of how outlandishly insane their antics are.
It was unorthodox but it worked. The PCs may want to bone down with just about anyone but at least they can find the best of everyone and bring them out, right? I think Valerie banked on that in order to get Zoe started with a new life. I am also willing to bet; Valerie never spoke the name Z'Gord once. You don't speak an eldritch entity's name unless you want trouble. Zoe has always been Zoe to her.
