"Is it really already that time of year again?" Spring asked the Kuhna on her shoulder.  The Kuhna merely offered a soft mewl in response, and Spring nodded as she smiled.

"You're right, Vespa.  I really shouldn't be surprised; it has been a year already," Spring said, walking into the boutique.  She looked around at the different charts, thinking her choices over before she approached the counter.

"Hello~" she said jovially.  "I would like... hm, let's see... yes, that's what I'll go with," she said, nodding as she petted the Kuhna on the head.  "I will take a Grab Bag, a Tanuki Tali, an Industrial Draculi, and a Primed Velix.  Thank you again~" she said, turning and leaving the shop after leaving a piece of paper with the appropriate contact information on it.

Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this to see what's behind
Got no way to prove it, so maybe I'm lying
Take a look in the mirror, what do you see
Can you see it clearer, or are you deceived in what you believe?
Don't ask my opinion, don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness for making you cry
'cause I'm no prophet or Messiah
You should go looking somewhere higher

I'm only human, I make mistakes
I'm only human, I do what I can
I'm only human, that's all it takes to put the blame on me

Don't put the blame on me

"Human", Rag'n'Bone Man

Well, he was stopping by yet again. The only things that seemed to change year to year was how cold "bitterly cold" decided to be. That being said, it frequently used to snow this end of January, and now, it was just drizzly, cold, but not biting. Chester would worry, if he felt it'd do any good. Still, no point in getting too morose about these things. Especially not on birthdays. (Or, the day after a birthday, to be precise.)

He was holding a large, pagoda-style umbrella as he walked. It was a dramatic thing, good for brandishing about if the mood struck him. Although, being as short as he was, Chester was finding that the edges of it were at most people's eye-level. Any flourish was liable to cause damage. With that in mind, he restrained himself until he got to the edge of the door. He folded it in one swift motion, giving it a little twirl to get the water off, and dropped it nearly into the umbrella stand. Show off.

He wandered up to the counter. "Hello again. Still alive I see. Jolly good, jolly good.We'll be taking one Aquarius Shinzo, if you'll be so kind, as for the others, I think a Melowockee, a Tbones and a Beastbones will do nicely."

She'd been so busy, she'd almost forgotten to head over to the boutique. Her birthday had been at the beginning of the month, but things had been a bit hectic, so it was only now that she'd had a chance to step out. She was eager to see the new stock, knowing that some really interesting new creatures had shown up. "Hello!" she greeted as she stepped into the shop. "I've got a little list here...Hopefully I can get some of these new guys. Thanks a bunch!"

((Tanuki Tali, Industrial Draculi, Beastbones, Grab bag))

I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!



A great adventure!

Okay, so maaaaybe she had forgotten to get something important done much earlier. Which was pretty silly when she had been making a big fuss about it right as her birthday had come along, but things happened, and it kind of just slipped by. Since she was here now, that had to count for at least something, right?

Elizabeth had been thinking really hard about what to pick this year, and the decision hadn't come easy, but she was pretty excited to see what the result would become. "Hi! I'm here to pick up a Grab Bag, Phage Hydrolisk, Tanuki Tali, and Industrial Draculi!" She told the young girl the very second she got to the counter. A big smile was on her face. Hopefully this was a good choice!

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

Well... that time of year again.

It felt like birthdays got more depressing every year. When he was a kid, birthdays were a big deal. There would be at least a month of hype, negotiating for gifts, picking out a cake and inviting all his friends, but the older he got, the less time anyone else had for that kind of nonsense. For the past five or six years, he wasn't even sure if anyone remembered his birthday, let alone helped him celebrate. At least other people got well-wisher comments on their social media. He'd checked last Friday morning when his own big day rolled around, and sure enough, not a damn one. Figures. Birthdays were getting to be almost as depressing as Christmas. A few more years and he might not even remember his own, if things keep going the way they were going.

But rather than feeling bleak, this year he just felt angry. What the heck was he moping around for? It wasn't as if he needed anyone else to have a good time. Yeah, what the heck, he was just going to have fun on his own. So, okay, technically it wasn't his birthday anymore next weekend, but he was going to buy an all-day theme park pass and ride roller coasters til he puked. Kill two birds with one stone, since he'd always wanted to go to the theme park. And even if it was dumb, he was going to buy his own gifts, because screw it.

Striding into the shop, he said, "I'm here to pick up a... uh." What did they have here, anyway? He squinted at the selection for a moment, before picking things out at random. "Let's see... Gimme a Pisces Werebetta, Phage Hydrolisk, Tanuki Tali, and Industrial Draculi, I guess." Yeah, that sounded pretty good.

Atlas bounded down the sidewalk, his path seeming more purposeful than was customary for him. It wasn’t uncommon for him to be out and about running odd errands, but today’s task was more important by far than any other he’d been sent on. That was because for once, the reason for his outing was not deigned by his mistress, but instead, for her. He’d taken it upon himself to go out today seeing as tomorrow was a very important date indeed. After all, birthdays only happened once a year, and that was a very rare occasion indeed considering the fact that he was a pup who was only one and a half years old. The store he was looking for stood a little separate from the rest of the shops on the street, and even if he hadn’t known which one it was, the very vibe seeming to emanate from the windowfront was enough to guide him in the correct direction. Nosing the door open (which was a bit of a challenge, considering it was a pull door), he made his way into the festive interior of the parlor.

For the first few minutes, he seemed rather distracted as he ran from display to display, sniffing all of the wares (some of which didn’t seem particularly pleased with being the object of his curiosity), but eventually, his focus seemed to resolve itself once more as he made his way to the counter. It took a moment for him to catch the attention of the girl behind the counter, but once he did, he very quickly made it clear that he wanted her to follow him. After all, he had no way of actually communicating to her what it was he wanted to pick up from amongst her wares, so instead, he led her to each of the individual items. The ones that he stopped at were primarily creatures, the three he’d chosen being a Phage Hydrolisk, a Primed Velix, and a Tanuki Tali. The last item sat up on a shelf, and it took a little more gesticulating for him to get her to grab the Grab Bag from where it sat nestled amongst its identical siblings. Happy with his selections, he checked out with the girl who had helped him out, then bounded home to try and figure out how he was going to use his paws to wrap some rather uncooperative-looking creatures.

The drakelph appeared on the counter in a puff of green smoke. A loud sound blasted it's greeting through the shop, and she leaped several feet in the air off of the party horn she had managed to poof on top of. Becoming a little less startled, the drakelph hastily adjusted her hat as she looked around for the shop. Three days late she was. Three days late! All because her curiosity had kept her thoroughly distracted by that thermomancy tome she'd discovered at the library. And yet it was hard to believe it had already been a year since the last birthday celebration.

Her gaze finally located the Lubishi and she straightened herself up. "Hello there," she started, pretending as though nothing unusual had happened just the moment before. "I've been entrusted with ordering some birthday gifts. Do you still have a Zodiac Aries, Phage Hydrolisk, Primed Velix and Tbones in stock?" The drakelph seemed to relax at Briht's nodded reassurance. She pulled out a sheet of paper and waved it in the Lubishi's direction. "Here's the address they will be moving to. Thanks so much!" And the drakelph left in another green smoke cloud.

It was degrading to have become nothing more than an errand boy. Finding people, digging up dirt on them, doing all the dirty work. While he'd dedicated his whole life to doing good deeds, fate had turned against him.

At the very least, this errand was a simple one. Most importantly, it was something legal and that wouldn't involve the lives of innocents. He could appreciate that.

He already had the order figured out, so it took little time when his turn came up. "Hi," he greeted. "I'd like to claim some of these pets for someone's birthday." He handed out a small written list for reference. "I'd like a Diamond Stargoyle, a Tbones, an Industrial Draculi, and a Melowockee, please."

A tall man quietly made his way into the shop, attempting to keep to himself as he looked around at the various decorations and confections set out for display. He stood out among the shop's bright colors, mainly because nothing he was wearing was particularly bright. The man wore some sort of long garment, a coat or a robe perhaps, colored in varying shades of darker greys. This extended to his head as well, which was currently wrapped up in a grey scarf, obscuring all but his eyes. Eventually, the man made his way up to the counter and waited his turn.

"I'm sorry, I hope I'm not bothering you," Vensemont said softly, his voice careful and almost a little sad. "A friend of mine recently had a birthday, about a week and a half back. I'm a bit late in getting this. I believe they'd appreciate a Grab Bag, a Phage Hydrolisk, a Melowockee, and a Tanuki Tali. Thank you."

Things had been very chaotic lately, and clearly Nyxia was not going to find much in the way of time this year. Many of the keepers of the library had spoken it over, and decided that this year they could gather the gifts for her. That was the reason Cila had been assigned to make the order at the shop, which was the reason she pushed her way into the shop. After a few moments of looking over everything offered, Cila sighed. This was a whole lot harder than she'd thought it would be, picking out things someone else might like. "I'd like to pick up an Industrial Draculi, Tanuki Tali, and a Beastbones. I'd also like...a Grab bag too, I guess." She hoped Nyxia would like them, though if she didn't they could always sell them.

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

In general Anselma had found that obeying mysterious notes was a bad idea; it tended to lead to mysterious old men trying to give her glowing rocks, or women with long dark hair speaking in rhyme about her destiny, or strange marks on a stone wall. In other words, everything she'd been trying to avoid her entire life. But this place seemed harmless enough, and she was always willing to do a favor for someone, even if that someone was a stranger who'd slid a weird note under her door in the night. Although that one did present some logistical issues.

"Good afternoon," she said. "I'd like a Pearl Stargoyle, a Phage Hydrolisk, a Tanuki Tali, and an Industrial Draculi, please."

Flay was not usually the one who went out places without other people. Today, however, was a special occasion. It was, after all, the birthday of the Beach's master, Jaden. The woman went through a lot of trouble to make sure her daughters were efficiently taking care of the residents, Flay and her family included. Often, Jaden would involve herself directly, and Flay heard many stories of the Master's generosity and kindness. The only reason she had not been helped directly was because she was fortunate enough not to need it. Despite that, she wanted to help do something for her and offered to get her gifts. Walking up to the counter, Flay quickly considered her options.
"Hello," she began, "I'd like to get a Primed Velix, a Tanuki Tali, and a Industrial Draculi, please." She considered the other options for a moment with a furrowed brow. "And let's just go with a Grab Bag, too."

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

A lone kid in a particularly dark hoodie wandered into the store, a small golden smartphone being tapped away at by skilled thumbs. He was humming something before everything in the store caught his attention, a wide smile gracing his face as he came up to the counter.

“Hey, yo! So like, I was born in June, so I’m here to claim my stuff.” Because yes, he was totally born then and his birth records weren’t a fake at all. He stood up on his tiptoes and started looking at all the options available.

“So I waaaant…” the young god Loki tapped at his chin, “Let’s go with an Eastern Zodiac Carpetfang, a Phage Hydrolisk, a Primed Velix, and a Beastbones. You're the best.”

A short and pillowy young man slipped through the doorway, the nostrils of his flattened nose flaring at the overly sweet aroma wafting throughout the boutique. It made him squint his eyes a little, his nose crinkling against the smell with a small shake of his head. Never the less, he skittered on into the shop, looking around with awe poorly disguised as basic curiosity. He tilted his head down to look at the floor, his black leather boots kicking away vibrant bits of confetti. As the confetti was flung into the air, a small giggle escaped him.

And then someone actually popped out from behind the counter, and he gave a shrill bark of alarm. "Ack!" The arcane hybrid jumped back, violet and teal energy pulsing from the clawed tips of his fingers for a moment. But it faded away once he calmed down, adjusting the round-rimmed glasses resting on his nose as best they can. "S-sorry! Hah, wasn't expecting you to... be... oh." He fell quiet while the little miss rambled on, and merely fidgeted his hands together while he waited for a chance to speak.

Which didn't happen for a while. Once he got a chance, the hybrid cleared his throat. Auh, I'm here to, uh, get some birthday presents for someone! he announces confidently, nodding his head. He said he'd like a..." he fumbles to take out a small list, squinting at the writing. "I'm sorry, his handwriting is abhorrent. Ahem... An Industrial Draculi, a Tanuki Tali, a Beastbones, annnd a... Grapple-- no! A grab bag!"

Only two days. There were just two days left until her birthday. Perhaps, he was cutting it a little bit close. It was true that he intended to go out shopping earlier, but other things had gotten in the way. Work had been a pain, and that was saying it lightly, and he didn't fair well in the summer heat to begin with. He never did like summer, even if he appreciated that she was born and, thus, born then.

By now, Z had a pretty good feel for the sorts of things that suited her tastes, even when they all seemed unrelated. So, when the man arrived at the Boutique, it didn't take him long to decide. "Someone I know has a birthday very soon. For her, I'd like a Nian Roosken, Phage Hydrolisk, Melowockee and Tanuki Tali."
