Then do you have a gene mutate? wisp asks tentatively

A team of three powerful, equipment-clad sylesties step into the store, looking around, obviously on-alert as their owner steps in behind them. They seem very protective over him and refuse to leave his side even as he steps up to the counter.
The human looks over the "Sell Log" for a moment, then nods and looks up to whoever is behind the counter, a small, friendly smile on his face.

"Hello. My name is Aaron and I was curious what sort of items you are looking for in exchange for one of your Zolnixi tails? If you still have any, that is."

The fairy-like boy reaches over and rests a hand on the male Qitari's mane, absent-mindedly stroking the black hair as he continues to speak.

"I have a list of items I can offer, if you'd like to look it over."



(Also, this is totally adorable, I love that you made it an rp situation)

Kosa looks up from the pile of bracelets she was inspecting and looks at the boy and his party. "Yes we still have the two zolinix tails. As for the items we take almost any avatar ones we don't have. Of course we essences are accepted as well. Other than that we don't have many guidelines. The problem is that I cannot price items. So just make an offer and we will work down to a compromise." While Kosa is talking Wisp is looking at the three heavily armored pets with obvious discomfort.

Aaron looks thoughtful at that, then pulls a list out of his pocket, opening it up and looking over the contents. After a few moments of his brow furrowing lightly and his teeth toying with his bottom lip, he finally looks up.

"Okay, I think I have a few items that are of similar value. A Crown of the Depths, Various Lighira Tails, Growing Coral wings, a Bee Costume, a Spring Herald's Outfit of Dawn, a Costume of the Depths, and a Creatures of the Depths. Do any of those interest you?"

He smiles again as he spoke, his hand still lightly stroking his Qitari's mane.

As Aaron and Kosa spoke, Megestique, the female Qitari, noticed the look the Zolnixi was giving them. She tilted her head a bit and stepped away from the others, giving the Zolnixi a small smile as she approached.

"Hey there."

She greeted gently, not sure how the smaller Sylesti would react.

Kosa looked at the list that she was offered and looked at the boy with a sigh"I really want one of the outfits but I am not sure if that will be fair. The outfits are epic level while the tails are rare. I feel like it's unfair to ask such a high price. By the way are you buying one tail or both? "

Meanwhile Wisp looks up at the female Quitari "H-Hello." Then she takes a deep breath and says in a rush "I am sorry but I don't travel much and I have heard stories of Ember and Sapphire and others, but please I am not comparing you or anything I am just tense." She lapses into silence...

At her words, Aaron gave an amused smile.

"Well, I did offer them, didn't I? If one of those is what you want, then that's fine with me."

He fluttered his wings a bit, adjusting his position before looking back up at her.

"Oh, uh, just one, please."

The Qitari that he had been petting looked over at Megestique and Wisp, then nuzzled under Aaron's arm before walking over to them, his hooves clicking lightly on the floor.

Megestique couldn't help but giggle a little at the rush of words from the Zolnixi, her kind smile widening.

"It's perfectly fine. I know we look a bit intimidating, but I promise, we're very friendly! Well, Shadow King over there can be a bit of a jerk, but Gekti and I are nice~"

When she mentioned Shadow King's name, the Griffi turned his head, but didn't say anything, staying serious and silent and soon turned back to watching the humans. The male Qitari, Gekti, stepped up, smirking a bit as he greeted them.

"Hey girls, what 'cha talking about?"

((Bump and an extra ping for you, in case you didn't see my last post))

"Then could I have the herald's robe?" asks kosa wrapping up one of the fluffy tails. As she does you notice her slip something into the packaging.

Sending tail over second trade is a gift.

Meanwhile Wisp has obviously relaxed and continues talking. "Another reason I was nervous when I saw you, you look just like the backroom. You see there is a lot of equipment stored in there and sometimes I knock some of it over... I am not the type who enjoys getting crushed by metal."

He nodded and smiled, handing it to her before taking the tails, wait, tails? His eyes widen a bit in surprise and he looks up at her.

"Uh, you gave me both tails."

After saying that, Aaron pulled one of them back out and handed it back to her, still smiling, so the skin around his eyes crinkled a bit at the corners.

Megestique smiled at Gekti when he walked up, and bumped her shoulder against his lightly, making him snort and nudge her cheek with his nose. They both turned to listen to the Zolnixi, ears perked and smiling, and once they had heard when she said, they both laughed.

"Ah, I can imagine most wouldn't be real eager to be crushed by metal."

Gekti snickered as he spoke, the armor he wore looked heavier and tougher than the stuff Megestique wore, he was also a bit bigger than her, with more defined muscles.
