[Yeah Wolfwood this is what you get for leading him on! Use your big boy words next time.]
It looks so cute! [Ain says about the farm as they cross the street. He does not look overly feminine today, he's bare faced because they were travelling and he was not going to do makeup for a town they aren't even staying in, so they're going to have to stay the mandatory distance apart so that they aren't questioned. That's fine, though, this is just a little stop.] I bet they'll have something. I wonder if they can make a berry cobbler, though...
[He is so chipper and Wolfwood is about to crush him. He doesn't know, and instead heads into the pawn shop to talk to the old man at the counter. Ain goes on the whole grandma's dead spiel and the man looks sympathetic because like, why would someone lie about their dead grandma and selling her jewellery, that shit doesn't come easy, and after he spends half an hour checking it all out he determines that most of the stones are fake but the metal used is absolutely not. It's not as much money as Ain would've liked to make, but it's a pretty significant chunk of change that the average man simply wouldn't have these days.
Ain, who loves money and having it, pockets this easily and thanks the old pawn shop owner before they spin around and head to the farm. There's a little building in the front of it where who Ain supposes is the farmhand's son is running shop, selling things like bags of feed and bridles and all the things you would need to keep livestock or horses happy. To Ain's eyes, it looks like the homestead itself is waaaaaaaay in the back of the fields, which makes sense.
There's a short discussion, and Ain says "we're travellers and we just wanted something to eat, if you have any fresh produce" and the farmhand says oh yeah, my ma's got stuff she wants t' sell off if yer hankerin', and Ain says that would be great thanks. And then this boy says "there's also a young horse she's tryna sell, 'bout two years old and calm as a butterfly" and Ain says he'll think about it thanks.
That boy will be back with food (all fruits and vegetables, mind, and a lot of it in a crate for the wagon which Ain says "Oh I'd better run back and pull the horses around after this" and the boy says "oh sure I'll hold it all fer ya til yer back"), but Ain does indeed get his berry cobbler. This is not breakfast nor lunch, this is snack, but you take what you can get in these parts.
Ain eats, presumably Wolfwood also eats, and then there's the cursory "be right back" because they gotta go get the wagon. Ain is not carrying those crates back no sir.]
