I'll Take You to the Parashops
Author: Lt Flops
Howdy-hey, here's my entry for Day 3 of the 2021 Scavenger Hunt! The theme is “Peculiar Purchases”. My writing on this is all over the place — I started writing just minutes after the theme was announced, and posted just seconds before the time was up. It is a touch unfinished, and I really wish I could have reached that 100% with this, but I hope this is OK. Hope you enjoy(ed)!
This one may touch the theme more lightly than others, but the Parashops are where the purchasing goes on, and Clarence has a deal with Lissiefang to acquire the beautiful (and peculiar) photo-clairvoyant critter images she has been capturing via power of mind for the last thirteen years.
It's my intent that Clarence is a member of Legacy, which is a cryptozoologist research group that works with the Hand. I will try to namedrop Legacy and better secure that reference when I touch up this entry after the voting period — but his presence is, I think, enough to give 'em the tag! Lampyra and Lissiefang, on the other hand, are members of a fledgling cell of the Serpent's Hand known as The Watchers. They appear in a GOI Format I wrote on the SCP Wiki here: "Scattersomnia": A Disease of the Wise and Drowsy Wanderers.
