(Setting) Nicole's Pet Shop
| > A new sound entirely? Yes, believably, footsteps crisp and clear outside approach the doors. They enter, a long with a man with a style unique to Glitch, a tweed jacket uniform.
| >Nicole looks up from her book.
"Ahh! Hello sir! Welcome to Nicole's pet shop! Can I help you with anything?"
>He grins almost junping out of her seat puffing her chest out to look bold.
| > He looks to her with his bland expression, seemongly suited to him. An English accent confirms he's new in the city.
"Yes, you've got any goldfish? I'm not keen to augments, but I'll take them if that's all y've got. I'd also like to look at your selection of dogs."
| (Seemingly*)
| "Oooh! We actually don't have too many goldfish but you can check them out over there!
>She points over to a selection of fish tanks in the corner.
"And come talk to me when you want to see the dogs!"
|
| > As if summoned by the very word 'Dog' a certain white haired Cat Boomer, dressed in a cream business dress suit and skirt, slipped through the door. About her was an equally professional, but warm looking, trench coat and white muffler. The boomer smiled brightly upon the sight of the place and spoke up.
"...Is Miss Nicole here? I'm Aethia from Danger U~! Is the huskey still here?"
>The excitement from the boomer was practically radiating from her.
| > The man looks back to the boomer and nods his head to Nicole before turning and making way to the goldfish.
"Alright, thanks."
| >Having spent two minutes giving herself a mental pep talk, all while rhythmically slapping her thighs and knees, a black haired Cat Boomer slips into the pet store. There's a rip in the right knee of her jeans, an assortment of badges on her leather jacket, and a twitch in her shoulders. She gives the white haired boomer a curious glance, turns to Nicole, raises her hand and just as quickly lowers it.
| >a man come in wearing hat, big glasses, black sweater, skinny black jean, and a grey dusty sneaker, and somehow this man have a smell of a drugs or somekind of antiseptic, he is walking toward nicole
"Hey are you selling some crickets?"
| "Ok, ok! One at a time here!"
>She gives the white haired boomer a interested look.
"Yes yes he's still here!"
>She smiles happily as she gets up and leads the white haired boomer to the back. She turns around to the other boomer and says.
"I'll be with you in a second miss! Please take a look around!"
| "Great! I can't wait to see him!" > Aethia exclaimed brightly, all smiles she follows after Nicole.
>Though she did pause and glance at the other boomer, when she realized another person came in. A faint air of de ja vu followed but she simply smiled and continued ahead. She had a doggy to meet!
"I've always wanted a dog, you know~. Does he have any augment maintenance requirements or anything? No issues with nano-machines, right?"
| "No need, I know what I want."
>Her voice is quiet and steady, unlike the hands twisting at her sides. Still, she drifts over to a fish tank to entertain herself while waiting.
| >>86302
>the man in sweater look like somekind of socially awkward, so he look really nervous to be on hold since the shopkeeper is kind of busy too
"i think i will search the cricket by myself around this shop"
| >>86310
"Not that I know of..."
>she quiclky leads the boomer to a room full of huge kennels each with a dog that seem happy-go-lucky. And the end there is the husky's kennel. Nicole quickly undos the lock on it and the dog walks out tail wagging and tongue drooling.
"There he is for ya... Don't worry we take all these dogs out to walk and play with them."
| > The English man finds his way to the goldfish and looks upon them all, gazing with a bit of tiredness in his eyes. He simply stares without taking notice into any of the others.
| >a young woman peers in through the door. Her clothes coming off as ill-matched and thrown together. A short skirt's length overtaken by an uncomfortably large parka. And her face masked by blue scarf and army cap.
>her eyes dart around as if looking for something
| >Something squeezes through the space the young woman isn't taking up at the door, possibly startling her in the process.
| >the young woman glances at the side and says in a mildly surprised voice
"oh sorry"
>and steps inside the store, continuing to scan the room for something
| "Excuse me miss... I need to check on the other customers! Please play with the dog!"
>Nicole quickly gets out of the room.
"Hi! Hi everyone sorry for the delay! So whos first?"
>He quickly looks around and her face slowly turns into a worried glance.
"Oh my It god crowded in here..."
| "Mind I go back to the kennel? I'll just have a look around the dogs whilst you attend others."
> The man once looking at the fish doesn't look up from a goldfish he's interested in, but speaks to Nicole.
| >The black haired boomer steps away from the tank, ears flickering.
"I'm Eggler from...you know. I wanted to buy the guinea pigs and a rabbit."
| >>86572
"Ahh! Yes! Come with me!"
>She leads the boomer to cages some filled with birds, rats and of couse Guinea Pigs and Rabbits.
"Here they are! Are you planning to breed the rabbits?"
| >The boomer brightens up and follows after Nicole, peeking at the animals in curiosity.
"Indeed I am. It's more convenient that way, ya know?"
| "yes yes I understand! So which one of the rabbits do you want hun?"
>She say staring into the cage.
| "Aww. You're so cyoot!"
>Aethia gently ruffled the Turkey's mane and smiled brightly at him.
"I'm absolutely taking you home."
| Really phone? Turkey? Huskey*)
| >"Eggler" points to a dark brown rabbit, almost indiscriminately.
"Is that one of the females?"
| "Ahh! Here let me talk to the other boomer real quick I'll let you make up your mind!"
>She quickly runs back to the boomer and the dog.
"you like him so far?"
>She asks bending over withe hand behind her back with a big grin on her face.
| >>86640 "He's so sweet! Does he all ready have a name?"
> Aethia laughed as the Huskey drew close and nuzzled into her. He licked at her face while training his nose to her scent.
It seemed they'd been playing and easily clicked.
" I want to take him home. I must take him home today."
| >>86689
"Hmmn...Would 175,000 suffice?", >Aethia offered thoughtfully,
" Although I don't know if he's of pure breed I place high value in the fact that you rescued him. Honestly I couldn't care less about that. Hehe! I'm just glad I met him through you, Miss Nicole."
>Aethia hugged the dog gently and smiled as the huskey responded by licking at her cheek and practically knocking her over by pressing into her. Like he wanted to crawl up into her coat and warm up next to her.
| >>86714
"That sounds great! I'll have to split it because my cousin found him! He always finds animals out on the street!"
>She smiles as she hugs the dog happy that the dog found a new home and that she loves it so much.
| "hey are you selling male scolopendra subsnipes?"
|
| (bump)
| >>86746
>Aethia smiled and gently scratched the Huskey behind his ears.
"I think I'll name you...Gogh!"
>While cooing at the dog she grinned brightly and moved to stand. The dog raised on his hind-legs to follow after her petting hand, which she immediately used to return to the act happily.
"Come, Gogh. Let's see you paid for so that I can take you home and clean you up~."
>Soon after she wandered off with the dog toward the front again to pay.
| "Hehe glad you like em!"
>Nicole smiles as shes follows the boomer to the desk.
"Everyone I'll be with you in just a minute!"

| >In the outskirts of GC lays a run down pet shop known as Nicole's pet shop. At the desk sits Nicole, a rather busty long haired brunette who is wearing reading glasses for the book she currently has her face buried in. The only sound in the shop is water running in the aquariums and the beep boops of the outside vending machine.
