Oh! What Have We Got Here? [Open]

[Jay]

(I am remaking my tables so a blandpost for now, darlings~)


The sun was rising, and the autumn heat warmed blue-gray fur. Meriadoc looked up with his green eyes as he greeted the morning with a smile. He was heaving up his stall to the top of a small hill in the Festival Fields.
Once he reached his destination, Merry flopped down onto the green grass. It felt cool under his paws as he leaned back to see the clouds once again.
'What a wonderful day..' He thought to himself.
But as quick as he sat down, he jumped back up to set up his stall of bits and bobbs.
He layed how a checkered table cloth, which had a stain on it from when his daughter, Felicity, spilled pie mince on it at one time.
He smiled at the stain, remembering how his little jewel at giggled at her mistake. After a moment's gazing, hes opened a smalled cupboard in the stall at started to pull things out.
A dagger incrusted with rubies, necklaces made of seashells and cloaks were amoung the many things he pulled out and placed neatly on the table cloth.
Once he had done, he turned around and sat down next to his mobile stall, waiting for possible customers.

{We wanted to do one together anyways so I hope you don't mind if I join in :3}

Iseret always enjoyed coming up to the festival fields. It was a nice place to just relax and enjoy the day. Today was one of those days where she didn't really feel like dancing for the public. She had been wanting to take a bit of time for herself and come up with some new dance moves. She gave a glance to her dagger and wondered if there maybe was some way that she would be able to use it in one of her dances. That was what today was for anyways, so maybe it wouldn't hurt to give it a try. A small smile came to her face as she continued along the path from her home to her destination.

As the she cat arrived, she noticed the stand there and someone setting it up. She found it rather odd that someone would set up a store here instead of finding a place at the market. Even if there were already stores there, it wouldn't really hurt anyone to make room for one more cat would it? She seemed rather interested and figured that her dancing could be put on hold for a few minutes so that she could check it out. She made her way up to the stall as the cat was just finishing. At a first glance, this cat looked kind of like a female, and a bit familiar actually. She gave the cat a smile as she came closer. "Good morning. Fine day isn't it?"

[Jay]

Merry lokked around and saw the cream coloured she-cat and replied, "A wonderful day for selling items that are on a sale price."
He jumped up and adjusted the flower tucked behind his ear. It was growing old, as it saw slightly wilting now.
He looked at the she-cat and held out a paw, gesturing to shake her paw.
"The name is Meriadoc Gill, young miss. I am humbly at your service. Whether you want a ruby incrusted dagger to defend yourself against those murderous Assassins, or a seashell necklace to bring out your glorious pelt. I have it all!"
He gave the she-cat a friendly smile.

Iseret seemed stunned for a moment. This cat, who she swore was a female at first glance, actually had the voice of a tom. Was this cat really a guy? A bit hard to believe by the way that he looked and wore that flower in his fur. She really was not one to ask why one looked the way that they did, but it certainly was something that took her by surprise.

The she cat soon shifted back into reality as she looked to the items that he had on his cart. She had to admit that while the dagger looked nice, she already had one of her own. There was no use in buying something that she didn't need. Besides, she was already saving up whatever money she could get so she could buy herself a cloak. She wanted one so that it would help her keep a bit warmer in the winter days, and help keep her ribbons from getting stuck in things when she made her way to her usual dancing spot. She turned her green gaze to the tom and gave him a smile. "You have some nice items for sale, but why not sell them near the market where there are more cats?"

[Jay]

Merry gave a chuckle, "Whats the point in going into that headache inducing hustle-bustle and get customsers look at my items and leave becuase they have already bought what they need, when I could come here into this nice, peaceful field and have customers buy some items because they didn't fill up their shopping bags with items from other sellers?" He asked calmly.
Once he finsihed, he looked over the she-cat and nodded, "So, you seem like the type to dance the night away, eh? I've seen you dancing in the markets once. Beautiful, indeed," He then looked through his items and pulled out three cloaks. One was red, one was green and one was a cream colour, "Would you take interesting in any of these three by chance?"

[Shy]

As Iseret listened to the tom, she had to admit that he had a very good point. The streets of the market were rather busy and it was a good idea to give cats one last look out here rather than at the market when they were sure they had bought everything. This tom sure was clever. He must have been a merchant for some time now to think of this tactic. She gave him a nod in agreement to his reasoning before looking back over the items that he had laid out.

The she cat's gaze moved over to the tom as he pointed out that she looked like a dancer, and even mentioned that he had seen her dancing before. She gave him a small bow to show her appreciation before speaking. "Thank you for your kind words. I actually came out here to see if I could make up a new dance routine to use." It seemed that was going to have to wait though. She had to admit that this tom was rather nice and trustworthy. Maybe it was just that feeling because her father was a merchant. Either way, it was still nice to relax while looking at items. Her eyes moved up as she noticed him pull out a few cloaks. Wow, so he actually did have something she was looking for. Now the problem was did she want to buy one of these or see what the market had to offer first? She thought for a moment as she looked them over. "Hmm... they look nice but I'm just not sure..."

[atrb=background,http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/276/7/c/merrytablemidd_by_jayflop-d5gqjzv.png] Merry smiled, "Dance routines, eh? My ex-mate and I used to dance a lot. I could help out if you wish. Free of charge!" He chuckled. He pushed a few items aside, despite making his set-up messy, and then layed down the cloaksin the newly made space. Then, he reached back into the cupboard and took out another, a red velvet cloak and a white silk cloak. "I also have these two, but they will be priced a bit higher since their material is a bit hard to come by these days, and they are just simply gorgeous." He placed them ontop of the other cloaks, and then turned to the she-cat. "Now, decide whether you wish to make a purchase or not and then we can get to dancing, hmm?" He suggested with friendly face.

[Shy]

A wave of thought passed through the she cat's mind as the tom went to clear some space on his stand. As much as she wouldn't mind some practice with the tom, she was a bit worried about what her mate would think. She wasn't sure how jealous he would be if he caught the scent of another tom on her, not unless he was there to see how she aquired it. She turned her attention back down to the stand as she noticed there were two new cloaks there. She had to admit they looked rather nice, but she wasn't even sure if she had enough money to pay for one. She detached her coin purse and took a quick count of the money that she had. She didn't really have that much. A small frown came to her face as she looked to the owner. "Thank you for the kind offer, but I don't think I have enough to purchase one. Perhaps some other time."

The she cat reattached her coin purse back to her hip before turning her attention back to the tom. She was sure he was looking forward to doing a little dancing, but she put her hand up to him. "As kind of an offer it is, I think it would be best if I just practiced alone."

[atrb=background,http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/276/7/c/merrytablemidd_by_jayflop-d5gqjzv.png] Merry frowned, "Oh, are you sure?" He asked, a bit crestfallen. He was looking forward to dancing with the cream she-cat, but it was understandable that she didn't want to dance with a tom she'd just met. maybe she already had a mate, and was cautious about her man, if he would be upset if he scented tom on her. Merry packed up the cloaks and then moved everything back into place, and then sat back down next to his stall. He decided he would watch her dance, see what her style was and such.
