>Ask what she wants

You sigh. "Not now, Arpeggio, I'm on a delivery."
You know this particular vagrant, and she probably won't kill you, but she won't let you pass without hassling you either.
"I can see that. Delivery kitties like you should be careful when going through the city. Might get... intercepted." She strikes the cobblestones with the head of her spear, making sparks. She tries to spin it, but drops it. Needlessly dramatic.

"So are you going to hand it over, or what?"▮
