The sight of the Roati fur brought a vibrant smile to Rastian's face. Oh, yes, that would do quite nicely. The blue was perfect against the stark white, it would be perfect for one of his projects!
"This is perfect, it's a deal." He said, extending his hand out to shake. "Thank you very much! I will be sure to come back the next time I'm in the area and I'll be recommending you to some of colleagues, they would be delighted to meet you, as well as trade."

He really didn't mind...? Viveka twiddled his thumbs and pursed his lips, not really sure of where to go from here. He spoke of his mother, he discussed Jauhar to the best of his abilities, what else was there to discuss? Maybe Natsu? Would he be interested in hearing him squeal about his boyfriend?
No, what man would want to hear another man squeal endlessly about how gorgeous another man was? ...Well, he and Natsu, but that was besides the point. He took a short breath and smiled.
"Uhm, alright." He said. "My boyfriend and I are discussing getting married one day, hopefully soon. But we may have to elope in order to do it... I'm sort of in an arranged marriage that I'm not very happy about..."

Gyuri starred down at Viveka who seemed to be thinking about something rather hard, something that must be exciting. He wondered what it was that he was thinking about, it had to be quite interesting for sure... and when he told him he couldn't help but to go a little wide eyed. He was in love? Giving a smile he said quietly, "Sounds tough." It must be hard to deal with such a situation, huh? To be stuck with something prearranged, something you didn't want. He knew how that went though it was a bit different then what Viveka was dealing with. For Gyuri it was a job he didn't want that his father had decided upon for him that he was trying to balk against. Not that he did so out loud, instead doing so silently which was his way.
Gyuri leaned over so that his mouth was closer to Viveka's ear, so he could speak with him in a way that nobody else would catch, and he said quietly, "You should do what makes you happy." He didn't want to see another person strapped down by something they didn't want, held back by it. If he was in love with his boyfriend, so much so that they were discussing marriage, then he felt Viveka should fight for that. He could only hope that his unhappy fiancee didn't come to hunt Gyuri down later for the encouragement.
Gyuri's father took Rastian's hand in his, giving it a firm shake, sealing their deal before he turned to look over at his son who was chatting with the long haired pretty boy. He gave a bit of a sigh before he called out, "Gyuri! Come roll up the skins that our customer has traded for, we want them to be easier for him to travel with!"
The big man turned to look at his father before nodding, giving Viveka a little smile before he turned and got to work doing what his father had asked of him, rolling up the skins so that the fur was on the inside, tying them with some think strips of leather to keep them from unrolling themselves. Once they were ready he gave Rastian and his father a nod and a smile, indicating that they were prepared for travel now.

Rastian grinned and watched as Gyuri rolled up the skins he had traded for. Well, he hadn't expected this at all from wandering around with Viveka today. He had assumed that all he would be doing was wandering about, getting too cold, and then having some tea before heading back to Mez. Instead, he met an excellent family to trade with and got two furs, it was a miracle!
"Thank you very much, Gyuri." He said, taking the rolled up furs in his arms. "I'll certainly be back again, you've been so kind!"
Then, he turned to Viveka, arched his eyebrow at how embarrassed his friend looked, and shook his head.
"Come on then, you look tired." He sighed, patting the smaller man on his back. "Let's get you home before your father worries or Eije decides to look for us."

Viveka's eyes had followed Gyuri all the way to the other side of the room, his expression between nervous and thoughtful. Do what makes him happy... Yeah, that was easier said than done. The marriage wasn't happy on either sides, it was arranged just so Eije's sexist grandfather could be certain that his late son's swords wouldn't be yielded by a woman, much less his grandfather. That, and Viveka didn't want to upset his father, who had graciously accepted Eije into their home. It wasn't so clean cut and dry...
"Hm? Tired? Uh..." He squeaked as Rastian patted his back. "I suppose we should head back, my dad did say he was making something special for dinner..." He moved forward, before turning his attention to Gyuri again. "You're more than welcome to stop by my home if you'd like on day, I live in Zidel in a small home just a little ways from a mountain path. There's a headstone as a marker... In case you don't know which house."

Gyuri listened as the others seemed to be getting ready to head out, something that caused him to feel a little sad since he wouldn't have them to talk to anymore. So to speak at least. It had been nice helping them, watching them, listening to them. They were a rather interesting pair for sure, a pair that he hoped he would be able to chat with again sometime. He felt that, given Viveka spoke of where he lived and how to get there, that he might actually be able to see him again. It would be nice, he felt that he would miss them.
Lifting a hand he gave the pair a little wave as they prepared to head out. He wondered for a moment if he should offer them the use of the sled, to see about bringing them home on it along with the skins. He would have offered had his father not called over to him and set to giving him a list of chores that he needed to get done. He gave a nod of his head moving over toward the sled. He would need to put it up first before he set to work on his other chores, a lot of those chores being to check on some of the other skins that were bring prepared to see if they were ready to sell yet or not. Then there would be the chores that were meant to help his mother out, she was a sweet, delicate woman, one that wasn't a big fan of the cold, and as such didn't leave home a lot. So much to do, so little time he thought to himself, sure that his father was keeping him busy to keep his thoughts from wandering.
The older man watched as his boy set to work dragging the sled toward another of their out buildings before turning back to Rastian and Viveka, calling after them, "Come back next time you want to make a trade! I will always be open to more bargaining!" He said before he turned on his heel, moving to gather the crystals and dyes, both of which he meant to bring to his wife before he went to join Gyuri for work.
