Welcome to Gaia! ::

It wasn't exactly like the shop was a boring place or anything, after all how could it be boring with what her Daddy and Dad did all day? She got to see people get holes punched into various parts of their bodies, get stabbed with a ink covered needle, and various other strange tortures all in the name of individuality. She wouldn't understand it ever she was sure, why a person would want to sit around for hours on end having someone paint their back. Earrings though she liked and she wanted, she would get them soon once she perfected her letters her Dad had promised!

Currently the Eevee was sitting on the counter nearest to the large glass panes that separated the shop from the rest of mall, watching as everyone milled about. The closer it got to the holiday season the worse the crowds got. People that were behind in their shopping and desperate to find any good sales that were going on she'd been told. It was like watching a very big screen TV actually and it had plenty of action. People running, bumping into each other, some arguing, words she wasn't supposed to hear at her age, the works. The entire time she watched out the window every time she saw something green her heart jumped, hoping it was Tyra... no such luck though. She bet Tyra and her Mommy weren't daring enough to brave the crowd, she wondered though if any of her other friends were?

She scooted closer to the window all but sticking herself to it trying to spot anyone she knew in the crowd. It was like an advanced, moving version of 'Wheres Waldo'.

Fenrir had all but given up on the idea that she was going to find anyone when suddenly she spotted bright orange, "Ah? Piper!" The name came to her and she was jumping off the counter, skirt falling around her ankles she landed though she almost had an embaressing moment of flashing anyone that may have been looking her way, "Gonna go see Piper!" She called to her parents.

"Don't stray to far!" Baldric called from where he was sitting, working on doing some tribal tatooing on a woman's back.

Fenrir only nodded on her way out the glass doors, dodging through the crowd towards the other girl, "Piper! Piper!" She called out, waving her arms in hope of being seen but realized she may blend in to well with the coats around her, and the din made it hard to know if her voice was carrying at all.

"Hello, Hello." Fenrir said with a happy sounding voice when Piper seemed to hear her and they were able to meet up, two small girls among the milling crowd but Fenrir didn't seem at all worried, "Naw, not shopping. I was watching my Daddy do some ink." She said, " Then I saw you from the window and came out to try to catch you."

Fenrir's fluffy tail was swishing behind her in an excited manner, "How have you been?" It had been a long while since she had last seen the bright orange girl so she was glad to get to meet up with her again.

Fenrir nodded, "Yeah, Dad is here too. Both of them are so busy though that its been a bit boring. Nobody to talk to cause they have to talk to the ones they are working on." She sounded a bit put out for a moment but it didn't last before she was perking up again, "Nibal... has a dragon? I met someone with a dragon but hes not very nice."

She crossed her arms over her chest, "The dragon isn't nice either unless you give her stuff. Treats or shiny things." At least the dragon's kindness could be bought, she got the feeling the boy would be more difficult to win over.

"So what are you shopping for?"

Fenrir nodded, "Yeah. I call one of the Daddy and the other one Dad, Tyra borrows Dad sometimes cause she only has a Mommy." She explained as if the only reason she had two Dads was to share one of them.

Her chocolate colored eyes got wide, "Wow... she bit him? That must have hurt." She mused, imagining what a dragon as big as the one she met could do damage wise if she had bitten someone.

Fenrir looked back and forth before nodding, "Its the Holiday Rush I was told." She said before she turned back to Piper, "Its almost like watching TV from my seat in the shop. Wanna come see?"

"Don't worry, not all boys are bad. I met a couple nice ones. There was Kale and Corbin Cute Ears." She gave a grin, "Thats the title I gave him cause he has very cute ears."

The store that Fenrir led the way to was a tatoo and piercing place, there was a lot of art on the walls that was samples that people could use for tattoos or ideas they could build from. There were also cases full of various jewelry to use when you got your ears, nose, or various other body parts pierced, "Daddy! I found one of my friends!" Fenrir announced.

Baldric looked over at the two girls for amoment, recognizing the bright orange girl from an earlier meeting, "Hello." He greeted her before he went back to what he was doing, nearing finishing.

"Ooooo. Pretty!" Fenrir said, climbing up onto the counter so that she could get a better look at the design the woman was getting, "You can climb up too." She told Piper.

The woman gave Piper and assuring smile over her shoulder, "Not to bad, besides beauty is pain as they say." She said in a joking manner, seemingly unbothered by the pain that went with the tattooing.

Fenrir's tail wagged a bit, "You should see some of the big tattoos they do, I watched them work on a guy for several days to cover almost his whole back!" Which made a small tribal piece look like what this woman was doing look like nothing.

Fenrir gave a nod, "I don't think that I would ever want a tattoo myself." She agreed, she had watched enough of them being done to be able to tell that they could be rather painful at times. Why would a person purposely do something that would hurt? Well aside from maybe earrings, she was at times tempted by them cause they were pretty and shiny.

"Yep, his whole back! Ah, I know!" The Eevee girl hopped off the counter and went to fetch a book that was behind it, bring it over to Piper, "This is a photo album, it shows a picture of all the different tattoos that Daddy and Dad have done!" She put it on the counter next to Piper before climbing up next to her friend again so they could look at the book.
