[Hiccup doesn't buy from the Goblin Market vendors, as a rule. He's been around long enough to know how shady they are, and how much worse some of their Black Market compatriots can be. He's only passing through, on his way to pick up some new tools for the forge, since his and Percy's are showing some un-fixable wear and tear by now.

Yes, he's only passing through, when a woman nearly runs into him. He laughs awkwardly, holding up both hands in a placating gesture while Sharpshot squawks, undignified.] It's fine! Don't- don't worry about it. The city's a little more crowded these days- [It can't be helped, can it? The mirrors went a little wonky this month.
And then he pauses, glancing back at the stall she seems to have come from.] Wait, did you buy something from that guy?
