"I thought it would be best to get something that was already made." Bliss told her leading her to the back of the shop. "Until get used to everything." At the back there was a large glass counter with a huge variety of food. There were a few dishes that looked familiar to her, plenty of sweets and desserts and a few things that was strange like a weird looking flower that looked like it had jelly inside. "How about you pick?"

"Umm..." She pointed to the plant thing and two other weird looking things that looked really strange to her. She figured that if she piked the weirder stuff it wouldn't look as weird from the locals perspective. She also picked the one think she recognized so she could hopefully fall back on that.

Bliss waved at a dragon not much bigger than himself and he came to assist them. Bliss pointed out the things Yuki wanted with a few extras and some cakes and pudding. Every dish was neatly wrapped in a little weaved basket and put in a bigger basket that looked like a harness. When everything was done the dragon handed the basket to Bliss and he put it around his neck to carry. "Anything else you need?" He asked Yukie.

"Umm... Will I need water or some other kind of drink?" She asked, noting that they'd only grabbed food.

"You'll have plenty of water to drink at your home, but a sweet fizzy drink would be nice to have." Bliss said and walked over to another part of the store where there were sealed bamboo cups in different colors. He picked out four and placed them in the basket. "Anything else?" He asked Yuki again with a smile.

"Umm... no. I think that's ok. I don't want to impose any further." Yuki said looking towards the basket so as not to cross eyes with Bliss.

"You're not imposing." Bliss said as he led them to the check-out. "It's nice to just do a little relaxed shopping. Venti can be a bit of a storm when she's with me." Bliss wiped his claw over his shoulder and there appeared two sparkling scales in it. He put the scales on the counter and walked by. "Thanks Bliss." The dragon on the other side said as he picked the scales up and put them away.

Yuki was now curious, but decided to remain quiet until they were outside the store.

Outside the sky was starting to turn orange and red while dark shadows where already everywhere around them. "We're close to my place now." Bliss told her. "Only ten minutes walk."

"Ok." Yuki said and followed close beside Bliss again, "So, what was that thing with your shoulder? how did you pay for the food?" she asked, trying to keep her voice down so nobody else could hear her.

"It's our currency." Bliss wiped his claw over his shoulder again and another two scales appeared. "We call them flakes. They're made to look like scales and each dragon gets some each month on top of those they earn. But Venti and I will watch out for you so you don't have to worry about getting a job or anything. Here." Bliss handed the two flakes to her.

Venti took the flakes and looked at her shoulder. She tried to push them under the scales there, but it only proved extremely uncomfortable, "Ok, I don't get it." she said rubbing her shoulder. OOC: Going with the assumption that they're not placed like that

Bliss smiled. "Like this." He said and used his claw to pull back a few scales over his shoulders. They lifted up like feathers and he place the flake underneath one before they straightened themselves out. "The flakes are enchanted so they fit underneath the scale without bothering you or causing any rashes."

Yuki repeated the motion, slowly, and eventually had the scales up and down again, "These flakes must be really expensive if you can get an entire basket of food and drink for two scales."

"I think it's more about our food not being very expensive." Bliss tried to explain. "We all have to eat and it may seem like a lot because we're still young, but when you're older and three times bigger this may just be one meal." They got close to a large building that was built into the side of the mountain. There were nine doors shaped like cave entrances stacked in three rows on top of each other. Each door a good distance from the other. To the side of the building was another door, but this one more than twice the size of the others.

"So this is where you stay?" Yuki said, looking at the impressive if not primitive structure.

"Yep! Let's go see the guardian here and get you a place to stay as well." Bliss said and walked towards the larger door and knocked on it. There was a lot of rustling behind the door as someone hurried to it. The door opened and a dark blue dragon towered above them. She was biggest dragon so far and had two tails. "Hi Bliss!" She greeted him with a loud and squeaky voice that was more welcoming than unnatural for her size. "It's not every day that you come to see me, what can I do for you?" "Hello Tender. I brought a friend that just moved to this part of the Ridge. She'd like to live with us." Bliss explained. "Really? That's wonderful!" Tender looked over Bliss to see Yuki. "Oh, she's a cutie! Does Venti know about her?" Bliss rolled his eyes. "Of course she does, she's Venti's friend as well." "Oh! Another friend of a princess! My den is going to be so popular!" The dragon stepped out of her house. "Snow, this is Tender, she's the guardian of everyone staying here. Tender, this is Snow." Bliss introduced them. "It's a pleasure to meet you Snow! It's been so long since we had a new resident." Tender greeted her.

Yuki was caught up in how large the dragon was that she almost didn't catch them calling her Snow, "Sorry, it's great to meet you." She said with a slight bow. It just felt fitting.

"Oh! You must be from further east of the Ridge! I hear they're so formal there." Tender said. "Let me show you your new house." Tender led them to the door at the end of the lower ground. "Here you go! Bliss is right above you so you'll be neighbors! There's no one staying next to you yet I'm afraid." She turn to the door. "Unlock!" She yelled and the door swung open. "Alright, this little whelp is your new owner so be nice to her!" Tender said pushing Yuki in front of the door. She leaned her head down to the little red dragon. "Just say 'lock' and it's all yours."

Yuki was shocked at how easily she was pushed but too a breath and looked at the door. "Umm... Lock." She said aloud but not loudly.

The door closed again with a thud. "There you go!" Tender said. "I expect you'll be showing her around Bliss?" "Yes Tender." Bliss told her. "Then I'll be seeing you around. It was really nice meeting you Snow and if there's anything I can help you with just come ask. I'm usually in throughout the day." Tender said heading back to her house. Bliss waved at the dragon and turned back to Yuki. "Shall we go in?"

"Uh sure." Yuki said And looked to the door, "Unlock" she said and the door opened again. She stepped, inside slow but steady.

There was a short passageway that entered into a room that was larger than was expected. Instead of being mostly square the house went further into the mountain, giving room for long but spacious rooms. The first room had a long soft couch, a long coffee table to match and a bookcase. There was also a plant like sphere to one side. "This is your living room." Bliss said as he started the tour. "It has the basics, but you can always add more if you want to."

"Wow, my own place." Yuki said, really drawn in by the space, "what kind of plant is this?" She asked waking up to it.

"Actually it's not a plant." Bliss said walking up to it and placing his claw on it. Music started playing from it, a soft relaxing melody. "It's a music orb. It plays music based on how you feel. Venti says my music is boring since it's almost always the same."

Yuki seem to drawn in by the music and slowly brought her own claw to the orb. She hesitated before finally placing her clothes on the orb, and it started to glow as a relatively fast paced song full of suspense started to play. There was weariness and a sense of fear, with the slight undertone of hope splashing throughout. However, with so much happening at once, the sound was more confused than anything else. A cacophony of sorts. Yuki then started tapping and swiping the orb lightly but frantically, not unlike a phone, to try and make the music stop as it hit a little too close to home.
OOC: going based on how you described the orb as working in your post.

ooc: That's completely right. Bliss put his claw on the stand the orb was on and the sound stopped. "Don't worry, you'll soon play music that you like." He reassured her. "Shall we go see your kitchen?"

"Yeah... sure." Yuki said after taking a deep breath once things calmed down, at least to her, "We've got food to put up, right?" Yuki said and looked around, "So where's the kitchen?"

"Over this way." Bliss said walking to the back of the room. The kitchen was once again a very long room and there seemed to be plenty of space and counters to work on. There were also shelves already filled with plates and cups and a stove that looked surprisingly like a normal stove. Bliss put the basket down on one of the counters and picked up two of the drinks they bought. He opened a long shelve that was away from the rest and a cold wind blew against Yuki. "Here you can put anything that you want to keep cold and the bottom one is to keep things frozen." He said opening the bottom door and an even colder wind blew out, though there was no ice inside, not even the sides of the fridge were covered in ice or water. "There are cupboards over there for everything else. And the stove is easy to use, there are runes on it with instructions." There were indeed runes on the stove and surprisingly Yuki could understand them. "Just watch out for your tail when you use it. It's easy to get it burned or caught in the door if you're not paying attention."

Yuki seemed really impressed with the kitchen, though she wasn't exactly a cook. Perhapse she could learn something while she was here. She then looked back at her tail, "Why's my tail so long anyway." She grabbed it and hugged it tight, making sure nothing would in fact close on it.
