As most days, in fact always when it wasn't late at night, the sun was sadistically blazing overheads down on the massive crowds of dragons making their way through the marketplace. Each stand offering different type of goods- from freshly made food all the way to herbs and perfumes. Romeo, an oddly bright spot right in the middle of golden yellow scales, was often looked at like a mouse showing bravery to walk between lions. Not that he got used to it, but he was born with the disability in his Rainwing genes to only being capable of the colours white and red.

Eventually his eyes spotted a small wooden sigh on one of the market stands, relived of his discovery he squeezed himself through the always moving dragons until he finally managed it into the safe shadows of the markets fabric roofs.

"E-excuse me? Good day! Uhm, are you also repairing things by any chance?"

Romeo spoke with his sing-sang voice, one that was truly unique in its sound... As if his throat has been never touched before. He sat down and leaned his forearms on the counter- while waiting for a response his eyes quickly gazed over the accessories the stand was offering.

As the blistering sun shone down upon the bustling crowd, Coconut fanned himself lazily. It felt like all of the moving dragons were generating their own heat as they brushed up against each other. He sighed and reached behind himself to pull another thin layer of fabric over himself, the only visible parts of him were his painted claws. Although the desert had always been a natural enemy to him, it was still a great area for costumers. Coconut reached to his side and grabbed a waterskin to dab on his dry skin and moisten his scratchy throat. It was times like these that made him sore about the lack of useful traits he gained from his odd family tree. Green eyes slid over the crowd as he studied the SandWings who seemed to have no problem walking underneath the unforgiving sun.

The thick and cloying scent of perfumes seemed to dance in the air with the bitter and grassy scents of herbs, fresh bread and roasted meat accompanying them to tease the nose of any dragon who forgot to eat before heading to the market that morning. Coconut considered trading with another stall owner for some fruit to snack on as he waited for people to wander over after they caught sight of the sparkling jewelry and shimmering silk. It would be good to also gain some connections as well if he wanted to purchase some fruits or herbs later to dye his fabrics and not get ripped off. His talons clicked against the wooden top of his stand, mind miles away before he was quickly torn from his thoughts by the approach of another dragon. He glanced at the dragon who approached and quickly categorized the information he could about him.

*'Red, white, frills... A hybrid? Unusual but not that I can complain,'* He mused to himself before plastering on a business friendly smile on his face, not that it would be visible underneath his veil. It was always interesting to see other hybrids especially when their kind wasn't very common despite the recent upsurge i

N hybrid children. 

"Yes, I offer repairs as well- What is it that needs to be fixed." His voice was sticky and sweet, like fresh honey- words sticking in your mind like a thick parfum that stayed lingering in the air even after it had wore off. While he spoke, he noticed the others interest in his wares and gently reached up to readjust a bracelet set near him.

I've been intimidated once more by someone's vocabulary and roleplaying talent 💀 how tf am I supposed to keep up
Marcella
*How detailed~...* Romeo thought to himself, unconsciously mumbling the words he thought as his eyes inspected the bracelet of detailed carved wooden parts which played just beautifully with the perfectly round ambers in between. Despite hearing the response of the seller, his snout only moved towards them when they reached up to adjust just the bracelet Romeo was looking at. He blinked a view times in confusion seeing the dragon wrapped up like a present- yes he has seen others like seawings especially wearing body covering robes to escape the blazing sun, but this dragon truly brought it on another level.

"Oh hello! Yes uhm so-"
The hybrid said with slight haste within his voice as if he was caught daydreaming once again. From his pouch around her waist he took out a folded pice of fabric which he carefully opened to reveal an earring- but what an earring! It was quite small- but very smoothly and symmetrically forged. The gold was perfectly adjusted around a thick ruby, who's red reflected the light in a nearly magenta tone. The issue was visible right away, the lock for the ear hole being ripped open- so the mechanism damaged and with that unwearable without losing it eventually.

"-I'm not quite sure how it happened... I've been carried by the crowd after my performance- and it must've hooked onto someone's horn or so-"
A wave of white dots ran down his reddish ruff, probably an emotion, unreadable tho- since it seemed like this Hybrid's camouflage scales could only switch between pale white and pure red. Gently he slid the earring over the wooden desk towards the jewellery maker, setting up a soft smile before his also ruby eyes would lift from his earring to the eyes of the dragon- at least he tried to find them beneath that wide hood. *Not a Sandwing, those unique talons? I bet he's also a hybrid~ lovely seeing more of these around*
Yolanda
Hope this matches at least 1/4 of your level ✊🥲

Coconut reached out to hold the earing, inspecting the jewelry. He shifted the jewel slightly to watch as it caught the light. The gem itself was real, and was quite valuable for a ruby. With a small shuffle, Coconut set the earing on the wooden counter as he reached beneath the stall to set a odd silk bag on top. The bag was opened to show other bundles of silk of various sizes set in an oddly organized way. It oddly smelt of vanilla, getting stronger as he reached into the bag and brought out a bundle to unwrap. Inside of the bundle was a glass lens that was set in a ornate gold ring. Coconut used the glass lens to inspect the earing, his veil making it harder to see if the clasp was the only issue. Despite the problem brought by his veil, he refused to lift it. 

"Ah, this is a simple fix. Won't even have to hold on to it, can fix it right here. I do warn that I don't do repairs for free." His tone was soft, as his eyes flicked up at the other hybrid. Coconut swallowed uncomfortably with a dry throat as he rewrapped the glass lens and set it back into the silk bag. It felt like the sun was actively trying to turn him into a dried fish. He reached down to grab his half empty waterskin to sip down some water, slightly revealing his jaw before the veil dropped back down to cover him once again. Part of him drifted away to wonder if he could just soak his linens next time to avoid having to constantly drink from his waterskin. It would be nice to work with an animus to make fabrics that could cool and hydrate the wearer, but the chances of him finding one- not to mention one willing to work with him- was nil.

"Some jewelry breaks easily, don't feel bad about it. I can replace the clasp with a more sturdy one but it won't not be as delicate looking, least a quick replacement wouldn't. I could bring it with me to work on it but I assume you would rather have it back in your claws as soon as possible. If you're wanting to kee

P the original clasp but just fix the lock, I can also do that. It would still be fairly fragile." The beginning of his sentence sounded awkward before it smoothed back into business speak. He reached into the silk bag once again and grabbed two bundles of silk. How he was able to tell the difference between the bundles was a mystery. Well, at least it was to others. Coconut just remembered where he had placed the bundles and the specific shape of them. He had grabbed the wrong bundle before but it wasn't often.

Inside of one of the two bundles he had opened were parts for earrings. Clasps, chains, and other pieces needed to repair or make earrings were all neatly set inside of the first bundle. In the other bundle was odd looking tools that seemed to be made to pinch and twist much smaller things that claws could not delicately handle.

HOLY F- 💀💀💀 dude ayo

I'm just saying right away- I love the detail you're putting into the roleplay, seriously it's extraordinary
Marcella
He folded his talons into one another as he leaned further over the table to curiously observe how he inspected his earring and compared the different kinds of silk balls- to the material he guessed. The smell of vanilla seemed to confuse him, his nostrils tensed, he likes the smell of vanilla- he always compared it to sweets sold around here... But he doubt this hybrid would plan repairing his earring with candy. It was a nice thought to chuckle over tho.

"No worries! I appreciate any help, which is worth of an exchange of favours~"
His tail curled into a spiral behind him- a rainwing thing to do, despite his tail tip being dangerously near to his scales. Romeo bit his lip for a sec- opening and closing his mouth again as if he was searching for the rights words.
"...Is it- possible to properly repair it without exchanging anything? It's just- it's the last thing I got from my father before he... I just wanted it to be as original as possible.
...Of course, if it's too much of a challenge- I'll let you recommend me what to do~"
There was this always friendly tone he used before, normally dragons spoke either in an commanding tone- one with authority or one that is respectful with their partner of the conversation. Romeo's tone grew into something emotional- explaining his wish with something personal was as if this dragon acted more alive than others. More sympathetic. Those ruby eyes weren't acting differently. Coconut could realise they followed each of his movements as he watered himself to escape the blazing heat surrounding him. He felt sorry, definitely, but at the same time not daring to bring it up- eventually disturbing his privacy.

"-money is not a problem by the way, it's not like I can just snatch it after you're done, right~?
Paying in advance is not a problem either! You seem like you know what you're doing"
But Romeo doesn't seem as if he knew what he was doing. This dragon seemed unbelievable kindhearted, naive better said, maybe Coconut has already met dishonest dragons before- many of those lingered around here. So how does it come this hybrid radiated with trust and purity? 

"If I'm allowed to ask- for how long have you been here? It seems to me as the heat isn't giving you slight the joy~"
Yolanda
Gah damn man, ya better get some rest and have a colourful breakfast, with that I mean fruits and eventually some Joghurt duh

He paused and thought over the hybrids words, clicking his claws against his tools before sighing. The other didn't seem to be trying to scrape him for free work. Coconut lifted his veil finally, green eyes searching the hybrid before the veil fell over his face again with a sigh.

"I can make a deal I suppose. I'll repair it, and you can pay me at a later time. Just come back when you have a couple coins on hand." He finally relented. At most he would be down a couple coins if the kid decided to run off and not pay him back. At most he would have to haggle a bit harder to make up for his losses when trading for his supplies. Coconut reached for the earing and grabbed a thin plier-like tool before he seemed to only twist his wrist and the lock was replaced with a similar looking piece. He set down the earring in front of Romeo before scooping the parts and tools back into their respective bundles and into the bag.

"There, I've replaced the lock so the clasp should work properly now- Though I do suggest getting it taken to be fully replaced when you have the coin or jewels for it. It's not a bad piece by any means, but it could definitely be strengthened." His tail reaches up and hooked around the bag, pulling it down and under the counter. He paused at the question and hummed. Business was slow anyways so it didn't hurt to answer.

"I was born here, well- not here. I was born in this kingdom," Coconut started, tripping over his words as he spoke. "I travel a lot, but between the Sea kingdom and here- it's where I get my best business. I tend to dry out really easily, my body just wasn't made for heat." He finished after stumbling his way through the entire answer.

Not my usual quality but whoo- got smthn out
Aurea
🎉 **| Kirbs** Leveled up!
Marcella
He shook his head while closing his eyes with a sigh- he was just about to repeat that he could pay him without a problem- but the his eyes saw the quick and elegant, as well as extraordinary precise. Romeo definitely let his mouth open for a while before he caught his awe again.
"That was- really fast, and precise! How can you even handle such small tools?"
He seemed to search for his eyes again, he knew at least they were green now-...A pretty green.
"Anyways-...Thank you for your work but-"
The hybrid reached into his pouch and pulled out a small- surprisingly red as well -sack, which jingled with the coins within.

"So... It can be strengthened? Is it possible without exchanging that part-? Something like... I don't know- melting a layer over it?"
Clearly he had absolutely no idea on how possible it'll be to fulfill his request- but he did sound desperate, the gentle angelic tone within his voice being quite challenging to deny. He held onto his purse with both his talons while leaning his head closer down to his earring, then lifting his gaze towards the eyes hidden behind the veil.
"Name me a price that would correspond with your efforts"
Yolanda
In fact- he has been everywhere on pyrriah before, but he often goes back to the rainforest, especially cause the festivals there are always welcoming his music-

BUT, how about they would coincidentally meet in a spa? I bet the Sandwing's would have like a building directly at the river which would provide several pools with heated water, serving snacks like plates full of fresh fruits and even messages? Maybe Coconut would once in a while allow himself a relaxing and curing day-...And surprisingly just getting his own thermal pool beside Romeo's.
Marcella
Outside the mid-days were just as hot as they always been, the air being uncomfortably dry and warm.
In this building- the air was warm as well, but unlike outside the wetness was brought by quite the foggy atmosphere, never letting anyone collapse due to dehydration. The hall behind the reception where you'd get your wooden check-in plates, stretched out with a round structure holding the ceiling full of colourful windows, each showing a Sandwing in a different position with its small glass parts that had been heated together. Beneath each window was a pool, which was separated from another and another following. There was quite the amount of dragons walking around- either leaving or heading towards their message session, just relaxing in their own pools- which some were shared by another dragon or went to another area, a sauna of sorts to relief their scales of all those toxins.

In one of the baths a particular outstanding dragon was relaxing in, leaning against the edge with their head sweetly resting on their forearms while the bubbling water massages his scales, red and white scales. Of course there were other unique dragons around as well, not surprising that the majority weren't Sandwings but dragons that normally are used to different temperatures.
Chris
A bit away from the bathes was a cream and brown dragon, golden scales catching the light as he talked to the spa worker. It was a rare sight for him to not be seen in his paints and veils. Although it wasn't clear what he was talking about with the other dragon, he seemed to be very happy to talk to her. He patted her head before he turned and started to walk. The spa worker padded alongside him and pointed to a bathing pool next to the sandwing hybrid.

Coconut gave a surprise hum, he wasn't expecting to see the kid again after he repaired the earing. The spa dragon seemed concerned at his reaction and he assured her it was fine before slipping into the pool with a sigh. His talons ached from walking everywhere and he couldn't wait until the day he would finally metamorphize and be able to fly. It wasn't bad being able to see the world- but a lot of it was not built for those stuck on the ground.

The spa worker seemed to vanish for a second before reappering with a glass filled with some sort of flavored shave ice, winking at Coconut before hurrying back to her job. He giggled at her antics and picked a strawberry off the top of the drink and slipped it into his mouth with a content noise.
