[There appears to be a new shop in town, an interesting variety of things visible through the store's glass window front. The most of notable seemed to be a group of strange black creatures - they seemed to be fighting over a small silver bell in an almost vicious manner. . . But you could also see aquariums of fish, spiders, lizards and various other small creatures as well as a litter of small long haired kittens of varying coloration and markings that seemed to be contented to play with the different cat toys in their displays.

As if he'd just noticed their destructive behavior, the dark haired teenager that had previously been at the counter came into view through the window, wand in hand as he decided that he should likely try to sort out the dark creatures. According to the signage nearby, they were called 'Nifflers' and there was a description basically stating that they were creatures often used by goblins to search for treasure, liked shiny things and warning the customer to remove all shimmery or metallic objects before handling them. Oh, and of course, a disclaimer.

'ATTENTION: Purchase at your own risk! Sirius Black and Padfoot's Pet Palace is not to be held accountable for any damage caused to personal property, houseguests, fingers, or. . . any kind of damage in general caused by these little buggers. You've been warned.']

"OI OI!! CUT THAT OUT!! . . . PETRIFICUS TOTALUS!"

[. . He had clearly obtained his wand at some point. . .and the poor Nifflers that happened to be the targets of the spell stopped moving entirely as Sirius reached in to take the little bell to toss it to the kittens. He had no idea how part of their toy had gotten in there. . .]

[Chrome had wandered in out of curiosity due to the commotion, but the tiny felines switched her focus as soon as she spotted them. She was fond of cats, and it was entirely obvious by that soft, pleased little smile on her face as she gently rubs a calico behind the ears. The owl on her shoulder, on the other hand, seems less impressed and is instead cocking its head at the Nifflers.]

[Once his hands were out of the way of the Nifflers, he pulled his hand back pointing his wand at them with a 'Rennervate!' and the Nifflers resumed their. . .whatever it is they do when they've got nothing shiny to fight over before looking over at Chrome with a grin. The little calico was now pressing in the petting with a constant purr issuing from it.]

" . .Think she likes you~"

I used to have one...

[She nearly died trying to save it from that car, too. After a moment more, she looks to you, still giving the kitten some attention as well via petting. Her smile's become more shy, but she's already made a decision, so all that's left to do is ask.]

How much...?

[He seems to be giving it a moment of thought before offering a grin.]

". . Well, you're my first customer and Padfoot seemed to think you were fun to play ball with . . . So. . . How about. . . free of charge?"

[Chrome blinks at that, a brief look of surprise before it shifts back to a smile.]

So he was yours? Thank you very much.

"Sort of. Padfoot doesn't really belong to much of anyone. He just kind of goes as he pleases. Normally he's around with me or my friends though - you might see him with Remus quite a bit too."

[...what catches that bell you toss is certainly not a kitten. It 's kitten-sized, but you seem to have somehow obtained a baby dragon rather than an extra feline. Rather than pay you immediate attention, however, he's going to bat that bell around with the kittens.]

[Once he had unfrozen the Nifflers he turn back. . .to see an odd cute little. . .Well. Okay, honestly. He had no idea what you were. Almost like. . . a dragon/rabbit crossbred or something. Either way he finds you adorable and you just might feel someone petting you now.]

" . . Hey there cute little guy. . .How did you get in here?"

[Petting is very much appreciated, as evidenced by the way it's getting your hand nuzzled. You're not going to get much of an answer though, or at least one you can understand, so you'll have to use your imagination.]

Buru~pya!

[He grins a little, supposing it doesn't really matter how you got here. He's still petting you though.]

" . . Bet someone out there is looking for you - I'm pretty sure they'd miss a little bugger as cute as you, mate."

From: [personal profile] twice_loved
[He's going to tilt his head those words, as if considering them... Before just fluffing up his wings a little with an odd purr-like noise. He'd get back to Teito eventually, but for now it was pretty nice right here.]

From: [identity profile] marauding-mutt.livejournal.com
[He wished he knew what kind of treats you liked. . .Because he'd see if he could find you some. Because you're just entirely too cute. Instead he's going to get up and come back with a cute little jingly cat toy! Just for you!]

"Here you go, little guy~"

[He jingled it a little in front of you to see if you would react to it.]

"Moony~~ Mate~~"

[. . Yeah. Like you're getting away that easily. Now that he's got the cat toy away from the Nifflers, he's going to unfreeze them and make his way towards you. . . Throwing an arm around you.]

". . so what do you think of my big business venture~?"

{He's still going to be keeping his distance from the animals. Normal ones don't really like him remember?}

It's very interesting, Pads. I'm sure you'll have your hands full.

"It's not been too bad so far. I'm just waiting to see someone buy a Niffler without reading the information. It'll be brilliant."

[He's grinning mischievously now. Chances are though. . If someone doesn't buy a Niffler. . . One will probably end up in someone's apartment anyways. Purely for Sirius' amusement, of course.]

Brilliant disaster is what you mean.

{He frowns.}

Sirius.....make sure it's not someone who will come after you. We still don't know everyone around here....but my employers alone seem....formidable.

{His eyes glint yellow and a wave of exhaustion hits him. Tonight's moon may be the closest to full it's been since he arrived, but he wasn't nauseous so it couldn't be the actual full moon.}

[He had been about to ask what you meant by 'formidable' - or rather in what way they seemed so - but once he'd noticed the glint in your eye and how you looked his grin faded. It was replaced instead by a look of concern - they still didn't quite know how the moon phases worked in this place. . . and it honestly seemed almost random or something.]

". . . You alright, Moony?"

Date: 2010-09-14 02:35 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] marauding-wolf.livejournal.com
{He tries a smile that's turns out more teeth than reassurance.}

Just a close night tonight, I'll be fine.

[He doesn't seem convinced.]

" . . I wonder if we could ask the fountain for a moon chart or something. . ."

[ . .. assuming this damned island even had any sort of moon cycle. . .]
