A young woman entered the boutique, accompanied by the wide grin on her face.  Every holiday was the best day ever in her opinion, but one certainly stood out among the others.  It wasn't really a holiday, but it was a day special to her that made her feel special.  "Hey!" She piped up, approaching the counter.  "It's my birthday!  Or, well, it's my birthday in twenty-one days, but I can still come here and claim presents during the month, right?  Cool, well, I think I've figured out what I'd like."  She then passed the clerk a short list scribbled on to what appeared to be torn-out note paper.  It read:
Birthday Wishes:

1 Grab Bag
1 Plague Malphas
1 Iridescent Kuhna
1 Prehistoric Insonia

I think back to the time when my search first began,
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there.

I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere!

-One Piece, "Hikari E"

The day had finally arrived, one that was of great importantance to a certain individual that she knew. As it had been thought about constantly and had remained as a simple plan for awhile. Skylar was rather glad about getting this errand done, for once she had retrieved a couple of gifts from this shop for their birthday, she would no longer have to worry about it. For another year, at least. Having arrived right outside the door, the Draculi had raised a paw and pushed against it so it would open. All the bright colors coming off the supplies had gotten a curious look out of her as she entered. Having never actually set foot inside this place, merely hearing about it from others, she couldn’t help but take a look around for a bit. Some of it looked like it would’ve been perfect for some fun with a party, though at the moment it was a little bit much for her to take in all at once…

Finally pulling herself away from the colorful distraction, Skylar had then approached the girl. Flicking her tail in greeting, and offering her a friendly smile. ”Hello~” She already knew what she wanted to get for the gift, and assumed that the girl knew what she was here for. It was pretty obvious anyway, right? ”I’ve come to pick up a couple of things for a friend of mine, being her birthday and all. Which will be… That Aquarius Western Zodiac one first, a Constellation Shinzo was it? Next is a Floppy Draculi, a Iridescent Kuhna, and a Prehistoric Insonia, please! I imagine she’ll be absolutely delighted to get these!”

Oh Raven won't you sing me a happy song

You don't want me to stay alone
That's why you gotta sing your song
You keep tapping at my door
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore
But can I ask you something
A favor from you my friend
This song you keep singin'
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore

Krypto wandered into the store, eyes blank but pose holding some resemblance of purpose. Yes... it was her and Erina's splitting day, birthday, whatever it was to be called. She briefly recalled Erina dragging her in here last year, but something had happened to the cheerful one, the positive half. It seemed there had been a shift in energy between them, with Krypto possessing more energy than she usually had, and Erina falling prey to some sort of illness. Krypto had felt horrible, knowing exactly what had caused the shift, and so had decided to go out and retrieve Erina a gift. Apparently things had to be perfectly balanced between them emotionally, if something happened to disrupt their balance, one would fall ill. It was a bizarre thing, this link they had.

Krypto walked up to the counter and regarded the girl apathetically. "I'm here for... my birthday." She stated, eyes hollow and blank. "We would... like to get a Macchiato Shartile, Iridescent Kuhna and Prehistoric Insonia. And I would like to get a Amethyst Stargoyle please. I think that is it... Thank you."

Stare in the darkness
Are you scared? Are you free?
I can be fair or a monster
Tell me now, which one do you need?

I can feel teeth tear into me
Rip me to pieces, rock me to sleep
I can feel eyes staring at me
Getting uneasy, ready to feed
I can feel teeth

It wasn't often that giant lizards wandered through town, but it seemed that today was not just any ordinary day. The bright, pink-spotted Lusikross made its way through town purposefully and with much more grace (and much less destruction) than one would expect from a creature of its size. It wasn't often that she was separate from her partner, but Cordelia had the day "off", or so she said, and so Mnemosyne was left to her own devices for a while (or rather, she'd wanted to have some time to herself). It wasn't that she didn't like the human - no, they had a good working relationship, but no matter how long she was around them, she wouldn't never entirely feel as if she fit in amongst such short-lived people.

Nevertheless, the task which she was assigned was for one such human. It was through this particular person that she'd learned of the existence of such things as "birthdays". Apparently, when one had so short a time to live as they, every year they were alive was something to be celebrated. Mnemosyne couldn't grudge them that. It took some effort, but she managed to carefully squeeze her way in through the store door, quickly discovering that the interior of the building wasn't any bigger than the entrance belay. Instead of forcing her way further in, she simply craned her long neck towards the desk where the attendant stood, hoping that it was enough to relay her message. I'm here to pick up a few things for a...friend of mine. I understand that it is her birthday sometime later this month, and I wanted to make sure to get the things before I forgot to. The shopkeeper was likely not expecting the words to echo directly in her head; being a lizard, Mnemosyne didn't have the capability for "normal" speech like most people did. Instead, her communication was all done telepathically, and she found that it tended to catch people by surprise. Nevertheless, she was here on business and she intended to see it through. I'd like to pick up an Iridescent Kuhna, Plague Malphas, Macchiato Shartile, and a Grab Bag, if I could, please. Thanks.

"I don't see how this is necessary," said Sivain, but still he stepped into the shop. At first it wasn't readily apparent to whom he had been speaking, but upon closer inspection one could make out the small black cat standing on his shoulders, tails wrapped around his neck.

The cat spoke: "It is the day of your birth, is it not? Then let us celebrate it. You are not too old for these things, you know."

"I do not age," said the man. "It is moot."

The cat chuckled. "There are other reasons to celebrate, but believe that if you wish. Regardless, the young lady will have our heads if we pass up the opportunity to host a party."

The man could do no more than sigh at that. It was true. Given half the excuse, Suvi would have the house decked out in bright decorations, and Sivain's birthday was not just 'half an excuse' either. "I'm surprised she didn't come along to choose my present for me," he mused, finding himself browsing the wares despite himself. It was all too bright and colorful for his tastes, and he supposed he would just give it to her anyway, when he came home. Still, as long as they were here... "I would like a Prehistoric Insonia, an Iridescent Kuhna, a Floppy Draculi and a grab bag," he said.

Chores, chores, chores-- all it was was more chores. It was rare for her to leave the library for said chores of course, but it was a special occasion. Sio couldn't stand to leave Chunhua to pick up her own gift (had she even remembered what this month was). She thought she was pretty secretive about it. Where she was going. Chunhua had drilled her with questions-- and Bijin hadn't helped her case a bit-- but she was finally able to convince the pair that they'd be fine watching the library for a bit on their own. Oh, the surprise her cute little apprentice would get when she returned!

Sio practically skipped her way to the counter, and only managed to skid to a stop a good inch before she ran right into in. She stood on her tiptoes and leaned over the counter. With a smile and demeanor that would tell any stranger she was drunk off her rocker, she told the attendant, "It's her birthday today! I um... don't think animal captivity is the greatest thing, but I... they're free, and there's not really much money..." Sio's voice continued to drop lower and lower with each word spoken, before she finally perked up. "That being said though, I really think one of those Iridescent Kuhnas, a Plague Malphas, and a Floppy Draculi would all tickle her pink. I guess I'll grab a grab bag for her too." She laughed nervously. "Can't go wrong there, right?"

A beautiful moon shines above again tonight,
And it sheds light happily over the world.
As for me, I'm just worthless, good for nothing,
Dreaming at daybreak, creeping at dawn.

Still I'll scream into the sky, hoping that somebody will find me.
I want to run, but there's no way out--
No bright future in sight.
But I still fly up like a butterfly, hoping that you'll find me.
A crescent moon, ugly children of the stars, flying with broken wings...!

The soft breath of frost and a few strains of song accompanied the Ilos that flew through the Marketplace's streets. The song was breathless, sung in quiet bursts, and gently done as to be nearly inaudible. The frost was brief but sharp, a kiss of relentless winter; the Ilos was careful to avoid the flower-boxes of shops and the tender noses of unsuspecting pets. If anyone could have seen her flight, they might have called the Ilos' carefulness into question...just as well that she was invisible, then. Careening among all visitors on her personal, wintry breeze, haphazard but sure, the barely-there song was interrupted by a tinkling laugh. No one knew the air like Twelve, and she didn't need to be seen to know that.

In a tumble of feathers and scales, the Ilos blew into the Birthday Boutique. Invisibility wouldn't avail her here. No sooner than her body was fully inside than she made herself seen, a trill of triumph in her beak. Her talons rested gently on the counter, wings beating softly, as she leaned in towards Briht. The pretty shop's keeper was fixed with a merry eye. "I~ must repay one Discord for her pretty dreams~" The Ilos' voice was the same breathy song. "Perhaps with one Diamond Stargoyle~? And then~ a Plague Malphas, Creamsicle Nonaga and an Iridescent Kuhna, too~" The woman had so many delectable wishes. The Ilos figured that at least these few, she could help come true.

Turret was very happy.

That wasn't particularly unusual, as she generally was always in some sort of happy or at least content mood, but at the moment there was a specific reason for her happiness. She was going off to the marketplace to pick up some new pets, and that meant new friends to make.

Turret loved making new friends.

Butt wiggling, she pranced into the Birthday Boutique and went right up to the counter, dropping a slightly soggy note on its surface. (Hey, it wasn't as if she had hands.) The note read:

Greetings!
As you are likely aware, this is a pet pickup for a birthday. Kodai's birthday, to be exact. We are requesting one Plague Malphas and one Floppy Draculi, to be sent to the House at your earliest convenience.
Thank you.

Jed walked into the odd shop. All the decorations fascinated him. "Um, hello? I'm here because it's my birthday. I'm new to this and just sent in my registration." He didn't know what to do, until he found a board with the rules on it. He studdied them briefly before he turned his head to find the cashier staring at him. "Oh, uh... Hi. I was told to come here for my birthday." He looked around the store, finding a list of pets. "Could I get the... The Chinese Zodiak Roosken. And could I also get the Iridescent Kuhna, Plague Malphas and Macchiato Shartile as well?

Also, I just sent an e-mail to landsofevelon containing my username and birthdate.

It seemed she got more testy with each year that she was forced to acknowledge this date, though in truth nobody had any idea why that might be. This year she might have avoided the fuse all together, if not for the lure of presents. It didn't really mean she was happy about it, but hey free pretty things. Slowly Nyxia pushed open the door and slid into the shop, eyes barely dancing over the offered goodies. She'd read the chart before, and really who cared what she got? "Yeah...it seems that date snuck up on me again." She grumbled glaring daggers into the counter top as she spoke. "I want a grab bag, not a lot of hope there...and could you send along a Iridescent Kuhna, a Floppy Draculi, and...oh whatever, one of those strange Plague Malphas things." So much for simple and easy, right? Next year she swore to send someone else, this whole birthday thing was too much for someone as old as her.

Bottles smashed, I raised my hand
How can you all even stand?
And why is there joy in this poison? Oh
Faking smiles and confidence
Driving miles to capture this excitement
I can't take anymore

You're never gonna get it
I'm a hazard to myself
I'll break it to you easy
This is hell, this is hell
You're looking and whispering
You think I'm someone else
This is hell, yes
I am in hell

Hellen was curious about the value of the items she was requested to get. She didn't really understand the importance of birthdays. Hellen would rather celebrate the day she could correctly make an pineapple upside down cake. That would be a day to celebrate. "I'm here to get a Grab Bag, Plague Malphas,Floppy Draculi and Iridescent Kuhna," she finished with a gentle sign. "Cake sounds really great."

It was not entirely safe for her to be out in public like this. She was close enough to home that someone might recognize her, and then there would be questions. But this place seemed like it was fairly quiet, and she desperately needed the money she'd be paid to retrieve these things if she was going to make it to somewhere safe. So, when no one much seemed to be about, she slipped into the shop.

There was no way to approach the counter without drawing attention to herself, and that would rather defeat the purpose of her coming here anyway, so she resolved to just speak as quickly and quietly as possible. "Hello. I'm in need of a...Pearl Stargoyle? I swear the people who gave this to me already...well, it's what they asked for. And, additionally, a Plague Malphas, a Macchiato Shartile, and an Iridescent Kuhna, please. Thank you."

The door creaked open slowly and a young woman's face peered in. After glancing around, she seemed satisfied that she had found the right place and entered. She had been in town for some ingredients for her potions and such and was asked to run an errand while she was at it. She looked around with a vague curiosity as she approached the desk. As she neared it, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a worn scrap of paper. Casually leaning her elbows into the wood surface, she peered at the paper with a frown. The writing was a sloppy barely legible scrawl. Who wrote this? With a sigh and a shake of her head, she raised her eyebrows and looked up at the shopkeeper.
"So apparently I'm supposed to pick up a grab bag, as well as a..." she paused and peered at the paper before continuing, "a Floppy Draculi, Iridescent Kuhna, and a Plague Malphas...?" Standing back upright and leaning on one hand, she made a face at the scrap and muttered something about hoping she even got it right and having words with whatever dolt wrote the thing.

You can pretend that when you hear my voice, darling, it's your choice not to fall in.

But it's all an act, 'cause I know exactly what you're wanting. You know it's what I'm wanting

Boy I know what you desire, oh, you're such a bad, bad liar

This could be perfection, or venom dripping in your mouth

Singing like a Siren, love me while your wrists are bound

Tony Stark walked into the shop, feeling very strange getting out and about. And ending up here of all place. "Gah!" He blinked at the tiny form popping up from behind the desk in the brightly colored festive shop. That was unexpected; who was letting a kid run this place anyway? "Uh whoa, heya there, I've got a small order I'd like a place. It's for a special someone," he cleared his throat, looking at the list of pets, one of which he could use as a gift for a certain god he knew.

"Alright. So I'd like to order a Western Zodiac Insonia, Plague Malphas, Creamsicle Nonaga, and a Prehistoric Insonia. Thanks kiddo."

Had a year really gone by? If you asked her mother she would say that it didn't feel like a year had gone by. But a year had, and so her mother's birthday was coming soon.
The Kuhna pranced up to the woman in charge, a large smile in her face. Even though her mother didn't want to do anything for her birthday, she would at least get her something.
"Hi!" She said loudly. "My mommies birthday is coming soon. I wanna get her a gift. Can I get a Iridescent Kuhna, Prehistoric Insonia, Floppy Draculi, and a grab bag?"
She waited patiently to get the gifts for her mother.
