He brought a suitcase full of vials filled to the brim with a greenish-black liquid inside. He was going to reopen his Snake Oil Shop for everyone who wanted one. He just saw a bunch of the brewed content in the Hufflepuff room so of course his natural instinct was to steal it and try to turn a profit. Now, unlike the last time he opened his Snake Oil Shop, he does not have the turbo farts or amortentia potions. He does have a ton of the Mysterious Potion, one Doxy Venom, one Acromantula Venom, one Explosive Fluid.. and one vial of Lacewings.. and one vial of giant purple toad warts.
Honestly, Clark wanted to know what they all tasted like, excluding the mysterious potion, he had it last night. He had taped his lovely poster that had his young self's face so clearly taped onto it.
He opened the Classroom door and during breaks in between classes, he would yell out for the attention of incoming students that were passing by the door. "BUY A MYSTERIOUS POTION! Who knows what it'll do? Maybe it'll turn your hair red! Or it'll make your food taste so much better." He was not sure how to advertise something so unknown. Honestly, all it did was energize him but who wants to buy a boring potion that does just that? No wait.
"BUY AN ENERGY POTION! I HAVE MULTIPLE! IT WILL KEEP YOU AWAKE FOR HOURS UPON HOURS FOR NO TOLL ON YOUR HEALTH!" He did not mention the other stuff he had in the shop, but he was eager to sell them. So he would begin to call them out. "SELLING DOXY VENOM! POMPION POTION! INVISIBILITY POTION! LACEWING FLIES! GIANT PURPLE TOAD WARTS! AND THE MYSTERIOUS POTION! ALL FOR A LOW LOW LOW PRICE!"
He took a deep breath, yelling louder. "YOU CANNOT GET MUCH LOWER THAN THIS! THE STORES ARE RIPPING YOU OFF WHEN YOU COULD BUY IT FOR 90% ITS COST IN THE STORES!"For Sale

Often, there were many things Meiyu chose not to question, particularly within the castle; besides the hideous trolls free-roaming the halls. Yet, the sight of a short boy shouting his lungs out to sell illegal potions, was such a matter she had to involve herself in. Besides, it was a rare occurrence for the young girl to get her hands on potions for a somewhat reasonable price. Flocking in with the rising crowd, who quickly surrounded themselves around the mysterious boy who sold potion vials out of a suitcase — an amateur businessman.
Meiyu's brown cat like eyes squinted in fable attempts to note the available options, none piquing her interest aside from the mysterious potion, one she had never entirely cared for given her lack of interest in the subject of Potions. Despite her attempts to excel in her subjects, potion making was one that truthfully, bored the young lioness. Why waste time potion making, when she could force a mere victim to do the hard work for her?
Wasting no time, she scuffled for any loose coins she had on her person, fate siding with her for once to ensure she had the right amount for the potion of her choice. Sixteen sickles. If engaging in such a blatant act of desperation by lingering around the make-shift store was not enough to humiliate her, it was how she approached the young boy, his height vastly differing from her own giant like state of four foot eleven. Hastily, Meiyu pushed past the others who quickly gathered, her free hand grabbing his wrist to extend it out, placing the sixteen sickles into his palm.
"I'm taking the mysterious potion," she began warily, her gaze diverting from the potions to meet his eyes briefly, before scanning the area. "Also, if you get caught, I was never here." Meiyu brashly reminded, despite never having acquaintance with the foul creature this man evidently was.
In a swift motion, she free'd his wrist and reached for the potion vile, the mysterious emerald green fog serving enough of an indicator that it was the potion she had rashly purchased. Turning on her heel, she hid the potion under her cloak until the coast would clear, enabling her to ridden of the potions visibility and shoving it into the bag she carried for the day.
One could never be too wary, particularly, with prying eyes nearby.
ACTION: Purchasing the Mysterious Potion and leaving.

@Meiyu XiangHe laughed a little, a girl came in and oh, how proud he was. His first sale of the day. Sixteen sickles for a potion! And not just any potion, the Mysterious Potion! He was wondering if anyone would truly buy it, seeing as it was not entirely as known as other potions like Vitamix, Amortentia... the cool potions. Did that mean that the mysterious potion truly was more valuable, hence much cooler than the others?
He smiled, nodding as she mentioned that she was 'never' there. Well, Clark could take the hint, but truth be told if he were to get busted, he was going to hunt someone down and the first person is always going to be someone he either does not know but met one time or it was going to be the person he hated the most with such a passion that engraved the hate deep into his embedded heart.
"If you say so. Enjoy the potion. But remember, I am not responsible for any further incidents now that you are in possession of the potion. If you die, it is not on me. If you spike someone's drink, I hope they go bald." He said, trying to keep his words simple, his threats not so ominous.

He saw another girl enter. Oh, was he not going to sell to any men today? Did they decide to stop being so manly? He looked at her with an expression of 'really? you're going to do that to me?' Regardless, Clark really did not care. He looked at the money and smiled. "No one has to know." He would state plainly, giving her a wink.
Honestly, Clark did not care if she liked to cause trouble, just as he did. All he was caring about right now was the money. Oh god, a goblin trait 'innit? He stared at her but picked up the money and pocketed it. So far he made 6 galleons and 16 sickles. "Look, if you promise to spread the word but not get me in trouble, I can ensure that you will still have the doxy venom tonight." He was implying that if he got in trouble, he would take the doxy venom back and keep the money.
He handed her the vial full of yellow liquid and giggled at the thought of it looking like pee. He was not sure why it was funny, but it just was. A little premature that was for sure. "I'll keep my word and you can go, but if you snitch, I'm gutting the prize from you."@Minnie Duke
