As the only art supply shop in Zantaric, Murderer's Masterpiece got a fair amount of traffic- especially since the store was a cover for another, more sinister business. Today was no different, and Porcelina Juárez had to muscle her way past dozens of the shady individuals who frequented the shop just to get through the door. "Ugh, god. These fuckers aren't real artists." the dwarf thought bitterly. "No talent pieces of shit, who do they think they are?"

As Porcelina walked inside, she allowed herself to relax. The smell of acryllics and turpentine filled the air, and jars filled with every color imaginable lined the walls. Shelves of blank canvas were topped with buckets of loose brushes. Tucked away in the corner was an well-used canvas and a jar of paint- it was meant for customers to test new brushes on to see if they liked them or not.

The dwarf took a deep breath. "Home sweet home..."

Walking lazily to the watercolor section, Porcelina ran her finger along the shelf. "Ice Bue, Robin's Egg Blue, Sea Blue..." her finger hovered over an empty space on the shelf, and the woman's eyes widened. "W... where is it?" she muttered. Her brow furrowed, and Porcelina grit her teeth. "Where is it?!"

Porcelina stomped to where the store clerk was standing, shoving a man with a hook hand out of the way to reach him. "Sean!" she exclaimed angrily. "Where is the cerulean?"

Sean, a pimpled teenager in an art smock, flinched as he heard her voice. "Oh..." he said nervously. "Ah, you were looking for the cer-"

"For the cerulean, yes!" Porcelina snapped, clenching her fists. "You said there'd be a shipment today! All the other colors are in stock, so where's the fucking cerulean?!"

"S-somebody bought it!" The boy cryed, looking very cornered. "All of it! Just as soon as we got it in!"

Porcelina stamped her foot on the ground, growing more furious with each passing second. "And you didn't stop him why?" she yelled. "I need that color! Do you expect me to use fucking azure or something? Do you even know color theory?!"

Heads began to turn in Porcelina's direction, and the woman's shrill voice was audible even from outside....
