Lotte wasn't an alchemist, not really, yet something brought her into this shop, day after day.
She's a quiet Nord woman who chooses to spend her days farming yet the elf that ran this shop looked as adorably deadly as one you might expect that ran a shop called Grave Concoctions.
Sucy was her name, and her voice ran deadly like snake venom yet Lotte adored talking to her, hearing about Alchemy that she wasn't fully aware of yet could now tell you of all the uses of Giant's Toe and label the effects of Wheat on a chart.
She came by everyday without fail, satchel full of wheat and whatever else she grew that Sucy might need, and she sold them one by one to her.
Lotte loved to hear Sucy talk about Alchemy though the closest thing to Alchemy that Lotte knew well about was magic; she'd been trained as a Mage and thus spent her lifetime farming and practicing spells with an eager heart to teach anyone that came along yet now she knew more about Alchemy than she'd ever hoped to know.
She eagerly spent time with Sucy though learning how to concoct this potion or that potion; Sucy's favorites were in fact poisons and anything that could prove to be deadly though she knew how to make a great assortment of potions as well that could cure about any ailment.
Lotte loved these lessons best yet found herself eagerly listening to Sucy teach her about poisons just to see the light that lit up her eyes then.
She didn't really anticipate any wanderers into the town and wondered if Sucy would mind that she had just taken a bit of a liking to her yet had no idea whether the woman was at all attracted to anyone; she never brought up romance, and Lotte was often too scared to ask.
Lotte smiled as Sucy pulled back from her, arms leaving their gentle nest on Lotte's arms as Sucy had considered the potion lesson done for the day.
She smiled at Sucy and before she could leave to go back to her farm to make sure that her harvest was actually doing well, a Khajiit brushed into the room, mage cloak thrown haphazardly over herself as she entered.
She was pretty in a much more casual way as she walked like Khajiits often did as if they anticipated anyone to punish them on sight though she spoke clearly and kindly, "What potions do you have on hand?"
"Anything you'll need." Sucy muttered as she walked away, back to the counter in front of her and motioned the potential customer over.
Lotte took that cue as time for her to leave as she found a part of her heart worrying that Sucy might just be attracted to Khajiits though she knew that the woman was only being polite to a new customer to help her business stay afloat.
