"Something for your crest, like I said." Venti said rolling her eyes. "But it's not sold off the rack. Your crest can be sensitive and each is different so some of the accessories are put on by a professional. And usual just before going to a special event. Others are more simple like rings and ribbons you put on yourself, although it's still a good idea to let it be fitted to the right sizes."

OOC: Alright, I tried to google and I couldn't find out what the crest was. I'm a visual learner, so a visual aid would greatly help me BIC: "So that'll probably have to wait for another time." Yuki said and looked back, "So how much for the sash and the necklace?"

"No way, that's it?" Yuki said but then remembered that the food they got cost two flakes as well, "So is that really expensive? And where can I can my crest mapped or whatever for a ring or something."
OOC: Yeah, I kept getting that third definition in google. Family Crests Everywhere. Anyway, Yuki's design is pretty plain except for her horns. I think I'll work on a new head shot for her detailing a prettier crest to align with the horns and her color pattern.

ooc: Try to think of the crest as her hair, since they don't have any it's a good substitute for that characterization.
"We can do it here." Venti told her. "We just have to make an appointment. Getting something nice that you can put on yourself whenever you want should cost three flakes."

OOC: I was definitely going to use hair as inspiration for the portion going halfway down her back, low ridges following the colored scales which have a curl pattern like hair pressed against her back. I want to tie her horns into it as well, so it won't look out of placed or forced/just plain weird.
BIC: "OK, let's make an appointment. While we wait I can shop for bedding and a fluffy pillow." Yuki said excitedly.

"Alright, follow me." Yukie said and walked towards the front of the shop. As she got near the counter a silver dragon, a little larger than them with a long tail weaved around her like Yukie, stepped out of the back door to greet them. "Hello Yukie. Done shopping already?" The dragon asked. "Hi Serena." Yukie greeted her. "My friend Y... Uh, Snow here wants to get a fitting for her crest. Just a normal one. Snow this is Serena, the best fitter in the entire Ridge." "I'm flattered." Serena said. "Even though I know you've never been outside of Starlight Valley." She laughed. "Is tomorrow afternoon alright for you Snow?"

"Hello." Yuki greeted and quickly thought about it out of instinct. Then she remembered that she doesn't have a schedule here, "I'm not doing anything in particular tomorrow, so that'll be fine." she said with a smile.

"Alright and what would you like to fit?" Serena asked and walked over to a glass display filled with all kind of trinkets. Venti followed after her and pointed to one side of the glass. "You'll want any one of these for a normal fitting." She told Yuki.
ooc: You'll have to make up what you want to put on Yuki's crest since you kinda knows how it'll look.

OOC: Alright, I think I've got an idea. BIC: Yuki browsed through the store and remembered cleaning her face in the shower earlier and her reflection in the mirror. her eye caught a silver headpiece that draped in three bands and met at one point on the left, leading to a long trailing three chain braid with a gem at the bottom. "Could I get this with an emerald? OOC: For reference: Like this but only on one side instead of both.

"No problem." Serena told her and touched Yuki's crest. "It shouldn't be a difficult fit at all. We'll be able to finish it tomorrow." "Thanks Serena." Venti thanked her. "Is there anything else you want now, Snow?"

"OK, thank you." She said, feeling a little awkward with Serena touching her. She shrugged it off and turned her attention to Venti, "Umm, stuff for my bedroom. Maybe earplugs?" She said with a light chuckle."

"Tender keeping you awake?" Venti giggled. "That's one advantage of sleeping in a castle. Of course there's my dad's snoring, but that at least tunes itself out after a while. I know where we can get some earmuffs. Anyway, I meant if there's anything else you wanted here." Venti turned to Serena. "Only these for now thank you Serena." "My pleasure." Serena told them.

"Oh, no I think just this is good for now." Yuki said and turned to Serena, "Thanks again." she said with a grin and started on her way out the shop.

Venti almost pounced on Yuki and gently grabbed her around the shoulders. "Two flakes remember?" She whispered before turning to Serena. "Sorry, she's kind of excited about moving here." "That's understandable." Serena said with a sweet smile.

"Oh, right." Yuki said, clearly embarrased, and pulled two flakes from her shoulder, "Here you go." She said, handing them to Serena.

"Thank you." Serena said still smiling. "See you tomorrow." "Bye Serena." Venti said and turned to Yuki. "And now to the furniture store." Bliss waited patiently for the two girls to finish and joined them when he saw they were done.

"So I've sill got 10 flakes for bedroom stuff?" Yuki said, trying to put the embarrassing moment behind her.

"Yep." Venti nodded her head. "Don't worry about running out, Bliss and I'll give you some if you go over that. Now for the best pillows and blankets I think we should visit the upper shops. We can get you a dress and some earmuffs on our way back."

"It's no big deal." Venti blushed. "Any dragon would have done the same. Well, almost any dragon would have done the same." She said thinking about Wood and his friend. "We're flying higher up the mountain this time, so try to keep your breathing steady." Venti said as they exited the store.

"Alright" Yuki said and took a deep breath to stay her breathing.

Venti flew up to lead the way. It seemed she was heading towards the peaks of the mountain, although you couldn't see much except for the towering rock that reach to the sky.

Yuki did her best to keep a steady pace. To get her mind off the actual flying, she focused on her technique. And watching Bliss fly. she wanted to look more natural flying, but when she thought too much about it, it just looked all the more forced. She would relax for a moment before thinking about her technique again.

Bliss stayed closed to Yuki in case she needed help. Thankfully it wasn't as far as they had flown before they reached a wide open space filled with buildings. It wasn't at the top of the mountain, that was still a fair bit away, but nestled halfway between the peak and city and fields they came from. The buildings themselves looked like parts of the mountain and some of them where. It wasn't as colorful as the shops below either. But only because most of it was rock. The parts that wasn't still held a welcoming atmosphere with shops decorated with a more reserved use of colors. There was as much grass up here either, but where there was grass and tress it looked like well maintained parks. At first everything seemed normal enough though. Until Venti landed in the street and the buildings came into full perspective. They were huge. Everything was larger than down below. The street was wider and the doors to the shop bigger. It almost felt like you've shrunk. Not far away from them two dragons was lying down on the grass next to a pond. They were massive as well, the largest Yuki had seen so far, large enough for her to fit in one of their palms.

Yuki was completely astonished at the size of the buildings. She actually hadn't noticed the two dragons and thought they were colorful mountains or something. It was only a second later, however, that he realized they were, in fact, dragons and quickly turned to Venti looking quite pale and put a claw on her shoulder, "How big do you dragons get." she said under her breath, mostly because she ws scared out of her mind for a moment and not because of the flight up.

Venti thought about it. "On average about the size of the two over there." She said nodding to the two dragons. "They're probably around seventy. Elders are a little larger though."

"70 what?" Yuki gasped, "70 thousand years old."

"No way!" Venti gasped. "Nothing's that old. Seventy birthdays. They're about seven hundred years old. If I should guess."

"How have you guys not overpopulated the ridge? You guys live for so very long." Yuki said, not sure where the thought came from and saying it more to herself.
