"The rappit? Yep." Venti smiled. "All the big predators are kept away at the two ends of the Ridge. So we can make sure they and the rest of the animals are safely taken care of."

"I think I'll stick with the star pillow." Yuki said, giving it a squeeze.

"Whatever you like." Venti said. "Let's go choose a pattern for you." Venti led her to a large desk with lots of worn books on top of it. Each book had some basic patterns and colors on its cover to show what could be expected to be found inside.

"Cool." Yuki said with a grin and walked with Venti and Bliss towards the patter books. She looked at the covers and saw one with a pokadot pattern of various colors. She started by thumbing through this one.

"See anything you like yet?" Venti asked opening a couple of books herself. "Here's one with clouds and here's one with stars, if you want stars on your star."

"I was trying to see if there was a blueish purple star pattern. I was going to make the star the regular yellow and try and make the trail a space theme." She said, not quite finding anything in the poke-a-dot book.

Venti paged through the book she had. "Kinda like this? A deep blue with little white stars?"

"Yeah, that." Yuki said, putting her book down and pointing to the design in Venti's book. "So, what next?"

"I'll go place the order.Venti said and walked over to a large counter with the book. She flew up and landed on it where she rang a bell. After a little while a large dragon walked into the room. "Hello little one, what can I do for you?" He asked Venti. "Hi Sir." Venti answered. "We'd like a blanket and a pillow with this design please." "Alright, let me just get all the details." The dragon said and Venti explained what size blanket, what pillow and what colors Yuki wanted. "It wont take long." The dragon finally said. "Are you coming back or will you wait for it?" "We'll wait." Venti said and the dragon nodded, turned around and headed back out. Venti flew down to Yuki. "There, now we just wait until they're finished."

"So, what should we do while we wait?" Yuki said and tried to recall how many flakes she had left, "How much for the pillow and stuff?"
|

Post by Bio Plus on Sept 15, 2015 16:25:37 GMT -5
"It should be six flakes for everything." Venti said. "Let's go see if they have cookies in the waiting area."

"So, that's six for the bedding, two for the jewelry, and How much for the fitting? We're already at 8 flakes of the fifteen you guys gave me." Yuki said, trying to wrap her head around this new currency.

"The fitting isn't until tomorrow." Venti told her. "You can get more flakes before then and it should be four or something. As for today, we can get you a nice dress for six or seven flakes after we're done here."

"Cool." Yuki said, glade to have math savvy friends here, "So you were saying about these cookies?" She asked with a grin.

"They sometimes put cookies in the waiting area." Venti told Yuki. "Let's go see if we're lucky." She led the way to some benches and chairs in one corner of the store. There was only one other dragon waiting there and he was twice their size.

Yuki focused on her friends, not wanting to be caught staring at the large dragon. Seems she just can't get used to something being that big and being just like her.

"Looks like we're extra lucky!" Venti said holding up three cookies. "They put out chocolate chip." She handed one to Bliss and held out one for Yuki."

"Yay, chocolate." Yuki cheered as she accepted the cookie, "Thanks." She said and munched on the little thing, looking around as she did.

Yuki and Bliss took a bite out of their own cookies. "I'm guessing you like chocolate?" Bliss asked.

"It's a girls best friend next to diamonds, right?" Yuki said with a little laugh.

"Then I'll remember it." Bliss said joining her with her laugh. "So how have you been fairing so far with your new life here?" Venti asked taking another bite. "Seems like you're doing fine getting used to all of this."

"Yeah, it's nice here. I just try not to make a scene and act natural, at least as I can given the circumstances." Yuki said with a nervous grin as she finished her cookie, "That's how I've survived High School thus far."

"High school?" Venti asked. "What's that? I mean I know what school is, but a high school?"

"Human schools are organized into tiers by years. Grades one through five are elementary school. Six through eight are middle school. And nine through twelve are high school. We usually start elementary school around the age of seven or five or six, rarely seven, and we're done with high school when we're around the age of eighteen. After high school, we can choose to go to college to further our education. That's where I'm at now." Yuki explained quickly and to the best of her ability.

"That's a lot different than what we do." Venti said. "We have classes and lessons we have to learn from when you're able to about your second birthday. After that we kind of decide what we want to learn and take our time to do so. I've never been around with other races in the world, but if there's something I can tell you is that dragons like to take our time to do things. Of course dragons like me have a responsibility to learn some things whether we want to or not, like history, and we have a lot of history."

"That's how it kind of used to be. You only practiced your trade and your own limits would control how far you went. Nowadays everything's standardized and everyone has to go to the same schooling as a minimum. and it's not really that different. We spend about a quarter of our known lives learning, if we're lucky and make it to 100. You guys go about it very slowly, and I don't know what your max age is, but you're spend a lot more time doing what you want over learning about it, just like us." Yuki said, thinking a little common ground was good too.

"I guess you're right." Venti said. "Maybe that's why we got along with humans in the past." "Your pillow and blanket are ready younglings." The dragon from before called over to them.

"Yay!" Yuki cheered a little bit, "Shall we pick up?" she said, eager to start decorating her... bed I guess.

"I think it'll be rude if we don't." Venti laughed and walked over to the dragon. "Thank you Sir." "It's our pleasure." The dragon said handing over the blanket and pillow that was nicely wrapped up. "That will be six flakes."

Yuki quickly counted up six flacks and handed them over to the large Dragon, "Thank you." She said softly and took a step back.
