((I'm in your store! I think! Oh Lord, I'm lozt! Jk razz ))
Fior watched the weapon dealing go on with interest. She wasn't sure what they were talking abou exactly, seeing as she was not the most enlightened when it came to weapons. She popped another muffin in her mouth and realised that she had not offered one to the (extremely) tall man. Without swallowing, she opened her mouth to speak and let out a spray of crumbs in the man's direction. She covered her mouth quickly and swallowed what was left. She hurriedly ran over to the man and timidly wiped the crumbs off of his tunic. "Haha... I'm so sorry..." she apologised. "I just wanted to ask if you'd like one..." she held a muffin out to him.

"Yeah, that'll work... though I'm hoping the skull is just cosmetic."
With that, he heard something and turned his eyes towards the girl that had apparently just sprayed crumbs all over his armor. He did'nt seem angry at all, but he did look down at her for a few seconds, as if processing a response in his brain. Then he took the muffin she offered him, but did'nt do anything with it except hold it in his left hand.
"... Thanks."
He turned back to the person who apparently ran the store, showing himself to be pretty buisiness-like when it came to these things.
"How much would that cost, anyway?"

Accelerando "Yeah, that'll work... though I'm hoping the skull is just cosmetic." With that, he heard something and turned his eyes towards the girl that had apparently just sprayed crumbs all over his armor. He did'nt seem angry at all, but he did look down at her for a few seconds, as if processing a response in his brain. Then he took the muffin she offered him, but did'nt do anything with it except hold it in his left hand. "... Thanks." He turned back to the person who apparently ran the store, showing himself to be pretty buisiness-like when it came to these things. "How much would that cost, anyway?" Caitee half nibbled, half scarffed the mufin, if that's at all possible. Her eyes widened in shock as she looked up at the VERY big man who had just entered. "You don't look like someone I"ld like to run into on a dark night after you've had a few rounds at thet avern..." Shes aid, more to herself than anyone else as she broke off another small peice of muffin and popped it into her mouth, her eyes sparkling even more than normal. She was a gypsy, and she had traveled around quite a bit, but even SHE hadn't seen a man his size. Well, not close enough that she could tell that his size was... well, his size. She watched him move and speak, her eyes blinking inquisiitivly at him as she slowly and contemplatively chewed her muffin. 'He'd definatly not all brain and no braun... but then again... He could very well be all braun and no brain.' She sighed to herself. 'looks can be decieving...' She finished her thought, and her muffin, head cocked ot the side as she looked up at the man, instantly deciding that the best course of action was to make friends with the man, before she had a chance to become his enemy. Unfortunatly, she wasn't sure if giving out her name was a good idea...

Adan cleared his throat. He had turned around to find the girl distracted. "Or if you ever need a real repair, you could follow me to the shop I work at," he offered the man with a reserved smile, after he had accepted the muffin.

Tera gave a nod, "Yes it is decorative, so I could remove it or place something else you would like there. As for the price..." she muttered a bit to herself, then said a number, it was about an average price for a weapon like that. Tera would not rip a customer off, but she wouldn't give them a discount unless they were a frequent customer.

As the girl that seemingly appeared to be the only one awed by his size muttered something, he picked it up quite easily. There was more to being a warrior than being really strong; You also had to be aware of your surroundings.
"Good thing I don't drink, I guess."
As the rather effeminate looking male told him about his shop, he only glanced towards him before turning back to the store-owner.
"I'll keep that in mind."
As he looked back at the store owner, he responded quickly to what he'd like done to the new axe.
"No decorations, I like to keep my weapons practical. Also, if you can, make the haft from Ironwood. If you can, just take the haft from this..." he hefted his own axe briefly, whose haft was made from the heavy and extremely hard wood itself. Ironwood was extremely durable wood, so durable that it could resist being burned in a furnace. Because of this, Raserei made a habit of having weapons made with it in their hafts.
"... And put it in in new one. It'll save having to carve a new handle."

Tera gave a nod and a smile as she took the axe from the large man, "I'll get to work on it right away," the axe certainly was heavy, but thanks to her bloodlines she was a lot stronger than she looked.
Taking a moment to take the axe back to her workshop she returned to the front, "I'll have the axe ready by tomorrow. Will that work for you?"
She would probably have to ask the other man for help, the one who had voluntered his shop for repairs. After all, she had no real talent with metal, so she doubted she could remove the haft by herself.

"Yes, that'll work. I'll be back tommorrow, then. Nice doing buisiness with you."
With that, the mercenary turned and hunched over to get through and out the door, being sure not to hit his head on anything. Being as large as he was, he had to be carefull about moving around indoors. As soon as he was out the door, he straightened to his full height and made his way down the street again, proceeding on towards his destination. He'd have to pick up a makeshift weapon back at the HQ...

As the tall man left Tera walked back over to Adan with a smile, "Well, it seems I'm in need of some help. You said you can do repair work on metal weapons? Could you perhaps help me with this job, in removing that haft? Of course I'll pay you for your help. So what do you say?"

Adan had turned back to the shelf in a show of disinterest. He had been listening, of course, but pretending not to. When Tera addressed him again he turned back to her quickly. "I could do that. We have the equipment at the store I work at, so we'll just pick a time the boss isn't around. That should be easy."
He grinned and held out his hand. "I don't think I introduced myself, did I? I'm Adan."

Caitee looked at the people left in the store, which seemed HUGE now that the big man was gone. She bit her lip as she watched the people, who had seemed to hvae forgotten her. It was for the best. If she introduced herself, she woudl not know what to say. She hadn't any people skills outside of the Gypsies, and besides, if they had heard of her, it would have been QUITE dangerous, or so she was told. You never know which of the normal folk could be a reble, and it would be terrible for the gypsies if shew re caught associating with them! "Maybe I should... leave? Since you're talking shop and all... I don't know anything about weapons, you see, and am quite at a loss..." She said, backing towards the door... She didn't leave, as she thought leaving before they had a chance to say goodby rude. Besides, she needed a bit of an ego boost after her accidental disappearing act, and was hoping they would ask her to stay.

"Actually, I've got somewhere to go, as well..." Fior said. "It was lovely talking to all of you! I'm Fior, in case you didn't know." She gently bowed at the two strangers, then at Tera. "May our paths cross again. Malam Thu!"
She shut the door gently and walked off down the street. She had her basket in her hand and once again she skipped down the dusty road to her destination.

Tera smiled and shook Adan's hand, "A pleasure, my name is Tera. If you could do that sometime today that would be great. It'll take me some time to prepare the spell to create the weapon."
Turning back towards the door she waved at Fior as she left, "Take care!" she then smiled at Caitee, "Well there is no need to leave if you don't understand weapons. I can do other things with my magic," taking a small vial off of a shelf she walked up to Caitee, "For example this spell. When you break this vial it creates a beautiful garden of blood red flowers that will last for years without care."

Adan backed away from the conversation just enough so that the two could feel like it was just between them. He didn't make it look like he wasn't listening though, and peering over their shoulders in between reading the labels on the shelf. He wanted to get a good idea of the range of things she could do with her magic before he left for work, which would have to be soon.

Caitee smiled and her eyes brightened as she looked lovingly down at the vial... "Will all of the things you create with your magic be red, or could they be multi colored?" She asked, biting her lip, contemplating. "Would it cost more? And... Well, what other things can you make?" Her natural affinity to beauty drew her to the vials, each magical in their own way, and filled with something wonderful for her to hold in her heart, or gaze upon. Of course, she never once said anything about buying such a frivaloty. That might give her away. But, perhaps... just one. She made a rather unsure face. "If you have one that is multi colored? With lots of flowers? Pansies, perhaps? And daises, and roses? And perhaps orchids and lillies of the vally and poppies?" She grined, easily getting excited by the prospect of such beauty.
