Green Flame Rising (Exalted vs Dresden Files)

[x] Linger, try to collect sorcerous reagents (; Reagents of up to ●●● may be collected depending on rolls: Wits+Survival or Dex+Occult. EIPP required for each attempt)
-[x] 2 essanse

Two essanse is fairly safe. I will be surprised if we don't learn some sort of supernatural secret during this meeting.
"Best not, we might get distracted, then Mother might miss us," you counter, not wanting to see what a fey this carefree and, you are starting to suspect, powerful would consider to be proving mortal follies. You have a sudden vivid impression of playing I spy while the street turns magenta and the trees plaid.

"Why would she miss us, she hasn't thrown anything yet," comes the counter quicksilver fast.
This sort of deliberate misunderstanding makes me want to use Source Code Compliance Protocol. We have never used it on a fey before. I wonder how they talk in a direct language completely without wordplay?

I want to but Mother Summer probably knows everything that goes on over here. Again no idea how she'd react so it's better not to get greedy here.

[X] Press on, it would not do to be late

I suspect that if we gathered reagents PURELY to use in the plague we are about to make it would be absolutely fine. Summer has agreed to provide us the plague and ingredients sources from Summer are likely kosher. Stuff we take for ourselves is likely something Summer could raise an issue about and Summer is looking for ways to get out from under our debt.

But I just don't think it's worth it delaying. If Mother Summer wants she will bring far better ingredients sourced from far more magical parts of Summer.

We definitely have to try that at some point.

Yeah let's not give them an excuse, guest rights don't cover stealing and she may have some level of intellectus for Summer especially a place deeper than Avalon.
 
Holy shit, Deep Faerie is creepy. Really, really creepy.

Let's not keep Mother Summer waiting.

-[X]"There are some worthwhile ingredients here. Some may even be useful."

3 dot reagents? cant we get this level from our courts? or is that lesser? anyway id rather be social with mother summer,then sligthly richer in reagents

Robbing the fey seems like an epically bad idea.
Yeah. Also worth considering that since CCG can slice to precise bits of reality there's the potential to come back later for trade purposes.

Stuff like weird mortal products that probably don't make it this deep in faerie often*, magical reagents from the equivalent of a high school machine shop in our hell, or minor prodigies. We can make those with 5-10 motes spent across 1-2 hours, and the added value from labor makes finished products worth more than raw materials in most exchanges.

It could be worth our time to make trinkets and swap them for splendor okay working materials. Glasses that mark people by how secretive they're feeling, books that project holograms of the stories written in them, limited good luck charms. That kind of thing.

There's also potential in alchemy products too. Mirror metal technically applies to any reflective surface, so we could try making weapons stronger than steel but formed from flint knapped so finely it shines or armor from beaten gold. Usually not worth our time, but if some fey has reagents for a 2-3 dot splendor and no easy way to turn them into something they need or a novelty they want then it could be.

* Is giving Red Bull to fey still a crime against humanity if we make sure to do it really far away from earth? :V
