(07.13.2761 - GATHER) The Hatchery: Flit Eggs for Sale! (attn: Jastin, T'val, Anomi)

[Betsy]

T'val worried he might be flushing just the slightest bit but he kept
his composure and cleared his throat. "Sure, I mean, if you really
want to, yes, we can split the cost." He stepped closer and more
towards the center of the booth's front, looking towards Anomi for her
to follow him a little closer to purchase her egg. "Excuse me, sir. We
would like to purchase a green egg, if we may." He hoped it was
alright with Anomi that he spoke; she didn't seem like the type of
person to easily address a person of authority like the dragonhealer
before them.

“Of course you may, sir,” Jastin answered the much younger man with
the respect he felt due any rider, a broad grin flashing broadly
across his handsome face. “And Happy Midsummer to you both. Just a
moment.” Nodding in greeting to the Candidate accompanying his
customer, he tucked his tongue beneath his teeth and gave two sharp
whistles over his shoulder – long, then short, the signal for the
green egg pot. His Candidates scurried into motion behind him, and his
attention returned to his customers, his smile remaining wide and
unforced – it was usually a thrill to acquire a flit egg, and smiles
were infectious, which always made for a happy Jastin around Gather
time. “Do you have any questions?”

On his shoulder, Rija slowly trailed her forepaws down his shoulder,
first arching and then rounding her back in a slow, luxurious stretch
that sent the sunlight sluicing in brilliant ripples over her
burnished gold hide. Her jeweled eyes shimmered rich, tropical shades
of blue and green as she regarded the two new customers, curious and
alert and waiting patiently for adoration. Didn’t they know she’d laid
a gold egg, after all? Oh, wait, they didn’t – that was the game. They
had to please her *without* knowing every aspect of her awesomeness.
Bwahaha. Crafty queen.

Crafty queen still waiting for laud.



OOC: Splitting this into its own thread, how that's okay! Replies for
M'kan and Persepha will be forthcoming as soon as I get email replies
from Graves and Allie. ^_^

Anomi smiled at T'val. He was really sweet. Spirits lifting, she followed him over to the stall, eyes bright with hope and excitement. She was glad she had T'val with her to do the talking, though. She wasn't sure if she would have been able to work up the nerve to by herself.

As Anomi tried to soothe her nerves and excitement enough to ask about how to care for the egg and a young fire lizard, when it might Hatch, and other such questions, she saw the gold fire lizard, and her eyes widened, filling with delight.

"Oh, aren't you *gorgeous*!" she gasped, eyes shining. "I've never seen anyone as pretty as you before," she cooed. Turning star-struck eyes to Jastin, she said, "She's so wonderful! What's her name? Is this egg hers?" She really hoped so. If her green came from such a lovely dam, she was sure to be beautiful, too.

"And to you, sir," Tori said to the dragonhealer. He looked to Anomi to see if she had any questions, as the egg would be for her. Smiles were infectious and Anomi's awe at spotting the gold on Jastin's shoulder brought one full force to T'val's face. She was a magnificent queen. "She is very beautiful," T'val said, trying to add something to the conversation while also admiring the glittering firelizard. "How old is she?" he wondered, not knowing many firelizards of the metallic ranks.
