What does "mercredi" mean?
Mercredi means Wednesday in French. I always thought it'd be a good shop name. *shot*

How do I get one?
The usual. FS, auctions, events, raffles.

Are these RP required?
Nope. It would be nice though. Your pet may grow faster and you may get special privileges.

Can I direct link?
Yes, that's how your pet grows. However, I'd like it if you could host the image yourself once they are at adult stage.

What are these pets?
They're a cross between foxes and cats. Basically they grow to fox size and have cat characteristics.

Can they die?
No. They stay at adult stage forever unless you somehow kill one off during RP. There must be a good reason though.

Who is Lionel?
Lionel is Mercredi's owner. He's also the mule and resident foxboy.

Is co-owning allowed?
There's a max of two people for co-ownership.

Can same gender pets breed?
It's more like they adopt a few kits. :3 Yep.

Can I help color?
Unless we're hiring, no. Sorry!

I have a question and it's not here.
Then ask! If it's good enough I might add it here. XD Feel special.

You're strange...
Why, thank you. <<;



     
     



Ah, welcome. Do step inside. Oh, watch the head; those windchimes can give quite a nasty scratch to the brow. You've never seen this shop before? Well we did open quite recently. Now, can I interest you in anything? We've got a bit of everything apparently.

A gift, you say? For whom, may I ask? Ah, treating yourself, I see. Nothing to be ashamed of, I do it all the time. Now... follow me here to the counter -- no, not that counter. That's for drinks. -- and we'll see if we can find something that suits your taste.

I see you're interested in the pendant. Lovely pattern. It's quite an odd trinket, if I do say so myself. No, it's not cursed. At least, it shouldn't be... The gem feels warm, doesn't it? As if it's going to spontaneously combust....

Oh, I was only joking. Please come out from behind the bookshelves. Now then, would you like it wrapped? Well, here's a bag anyways.

Do keep it on you at all times. Something just might happen... What? No, I'm sure your life isn't in any danger. Or if it is, the pendant isn't causing it; so if you must sue, don't look at me. Well then, I'm glad we could work something out. Please leave the door open on your way out. I'd like the windchimes to get a healthy breeze.

Goodbye to you, too. I'm sure we'll meet again...










 
     
     
 





Pendant - Now, what possessed you to buy that pendant? I certainly don't know. Ahem. Well, looks like you're stuck with it for now. The gem seems to get warmer as time progresses.

Kit - What do we have here? Apparently your pendant has shifted into an adorable kit. I knew there was something strange about that shop--I mean, what a turn of events! <<; Remember to feed and play with it!

Adult - Congrats! You've successfully raised your kit. Now they can do all sorts of fun things by themselves as well as breed. Who doesn't want a family of fluffy kits?

"Uncle! Uncle Lionel!"
"What is it now?"
"Where do baby Reneux come from?"
"......Shut up and get back to work."


So how does it work? Basically the Reneux take some of the magic from their gems and infuse it into blank gems with the help of the breeding item and a staff member.

Rules
1. Thread activity is required.
2. Your Reneux' offspring must be adults before they can breed again.
3. Same gendered Reneux may breed but they need an RP history.
4. Reneux can have 2-4 pendants.
5. You may keep one pendant for yourself. You must either give the others away or hold some sort of free contest for them. You may not sell them for profit.
6. You must pay a base price of 5k in order for your Reneux to breed. Each pendant also costs 5k or 7k depending on the Reneux up for breeding. ( i.e. Say you are to get 2 pendants from normal Reneux. You would add 10k to the 5k base price, and the total amount would be 15k )
7. And, of course, your Reneux must be adults to breed.


For each pendant:

Normal: 5k
Cosplay/Lineart edits: 7k
