A colorful looking Ianthina emerges from the crowd, stepping closer to the table. You weren't able to make out their eyecolor - or if they have eyes, at all. In fact, if it weren'tfor the fail, one would assume they aren't even an Ianthina.
They put a bag onto the table and open it, and - one by one - they take out some items.
- Something made of wood, but not large:
- The first thing the Ianthina pulls out of the bag is…well, what is that? It’s circular and long things hang down from it. “A wind chime” the Ianthina responds. “I found it in a sunken ship. It is made of wood. The water already corroded most of the wood and metal in it, so I doubt it’ll make any noise.” They replied. They then hold up the wind chime by a cord – it’s about as big as ones palm.
- Something with meat:
- “Did you know”, the Ianthina said, “that there are multiple ways to prepare meat? Apparently other species have a preference for that.” With that being said, the Ianthina pulls out a small box. When opened, a long, sausage-looking thing appears. “When I was on the surface, someone gave this to me. Apparently it is called pork loin. The person who gave this to me said that you can fry it completely, or fry it and put it into the oven later on.”
- Something from the earth:
- After rummaging the bag, the next item gets pulled out. And it is a stone. A fancy stone with – well, how do you describe the colors – reddish-orange colors. The Ianthina carefully puts it down. “A jasper.” They proclaim. “These stones usually get turned into gemstones, which will then get put into jewelery.”
- Something feathered:
- The next item that gets pulled out of the bag is a square. A yellow square. “This, my dear, is a pillow. They are filled with feathers. Not all pillow are filled with feathers though, some are filled with so-called downs.” They said. They put down the pillow and open it up with the zipper. “However, this is a feather-pillow.”
- Something with yeast:
- And last, but not least, the final item emerges from the bag. And it is…huh. Something small. Something round. Something…colorful? The Ianthina holds it up in one hand, and proclaims that is called “A muffin. Someone gifted me a muffin when I was on the surface. Muffins can have different fillings and tastes. This one is allegedly filled with chocolate drops, and the glazing is strawberry.”
"Hm," Ennis sniffs, chin in hand. The windchime does not impress: looks like useless garbage to her. But at the sight of the pork loin, her fins flare with excitement. You've found her weakness: she can't maintain her poker face, and a small smile pulls at her lips. The jasper is nearly a disappointment by comparison; she rolls it in her fingers--maybe this will be a good gift for Tomo, she thinks--but it's quickly forgotten in light of the pillow. Her hand goes right in the pocket as she mutters, "What's a downs?" Not an important question, she supposes, since it is a feather pillow. She'll have to ask someone else about it later. The muffin, the final object, gives her pause. She tilts her head, then leans in to sniff. She's had strawberry, and she's tried chocolate once, but to have them together in a cake? She wasn't so sure.
"Well." She looks at the items laid out before her. "Not a bad haul. My tip, as a salesman, is to throw that windchime away: it's useful for nothing but scrap metal. The muffin and the pork loin, though, that I will take. Throw in the jasper, and I'll give you a little bonus."
