Vicar and Arche
"Come on! We're already going to be in trouble later, so stop looking behind us!"
"But I thought I heard something..."
The little boy, a mop of untamed purple hair flowing down into his eyes and doing well to hid the small, curved horns on his head, turned around and made a growling face at the little girl. Arche looked to be a few years younger than her companion--maybe six or so while Vicar was easily nine or ten. "Of course you're hearing things. Because we're not supposed to be here. Now hurry up!"
Hugging her teddy bear closely to her, Arche gave a little sniffle and raced after the older boy--pink dress stained with Slum muck and black pigtails looking in need of fixing. The only smile since coming to this part of town came when she saw the little painted flowers. She wasn't sure she'd ever seen real ones before.
Vicar reached back and carefully grabbed her arm, pulling his younger sister into the building run by a very familiar face. Arche's eys were immediately captured by a Nebula Evren--for the simple fact it looked sparkly and was purple, and abandoned Vicar's side to go and coo over the creature.
Vicar, however, didn't look as thrilled. "He never told us he was keeping pets..." The young boy huffed, walking up to the desk to the red and cream skinned woman. He dug around in his pocket for a moment while she was locked in unfortunate conversation with a customer, but his attention was far from collecting the correct amount of change. The Albino Drakel--that had his attention. But unlike his sister it was not because the creature was pretty...no, there was something not fully...animal about it.
Nerly tossing up the fee onto the counter, Vicar's grimy little fingers grasped at the edge of the desk to help haul himself up high enough to see over it. "Arche and I wanna enter, Lady." He said hoarsely, making a show of trying to deepen and toughen up his voice. He peered around, and the act quickly diminished.
"Arche wants 2, but I want 7...so we decided we'd ask for number 27...mostly so Arche won't cry the whole way home. And...can you...maybe not tell Rev we were here? He'll already be awfully mad we used some of his money..."
With that he let himself drop to the floor and gathered Arche back to her feet. As they ran from the building Arche smiled and waved goodbye first to the woman in charge, and then to the Nebula Evren. She sure hoped Vicar had told the lady they wanted that one...
(My top three in order of most wanted to least: Albino Drakel, Nebula Evren, or Imeut. Should I be drawn for either breedable, please give it to another user. ^^ )
