Orestis chuckled. The harpy was really dense after all. The wolf moved his tail around in a playfull manner as he took a few steps away from Thitero. "Alright, birdie. Just be careful. You don't want to spoil our fun surprise, do you?" He asked not expecting an answer. He then turned towards te cat, playful as ever. "Anyways, really nice stuff you got there kitty. I'd buy something but we wolves tend to be poor. I'll see you around." He then proceeded to take his leave.
(Orestis left the scene)

Kino chuckeld at THitero's comments about being to concealing, "Better safe then sorry buddy. Last thing you want is for something to cause you to internally combust because it wasn't made for you." He says with a nod. "Hehe, right to the point, eh?" He asks with a chuckle, "Don't want their attention, just want what they can give you completely?~" He coos, tail swishing as he teases the bird a bit.
As he listened to Thitero's request for a potion, he leaned down beneath the stand and pulled out a container with some bluish liquid inside. "So, I need one of your feathers, a real feather, if you will." He says suddenly, pulling out a metal rod that had a white crystal within the base of its handle. He raised a brow upon the bird snatching up that opal bracelet. It was definitely something that could catch the attention of someone naturally thanks to its beautiful design.
What a bird, fixating on something shiny. "Heh, well, with that and this potion I'd say its going to be... about 60 dollars." He says with a nod. It was mostly the bracelet that was that expensive. "Especially since that bracelet there has a charm on it that draws people's eyes towards them."

A feather? Molting season had left Thitero behind months ago, and while feathers did come loose with some regularity, he preened them away as soon as they fell. He wouldn’t be caught dead with stray feathers clinging to his coat. It would need to be a fresh feather, then; a painful event, but nothing he hadn’t experienced before. Of course, he couldn’t remove a feather visible to a passerby, even the slightest blemish would shame him. So, reluctantly, he reached down through his vest and quickly plucked a pinch of violet plumage from his upper thigh, wincing as his eyes grew watery at the act.
“Take it, this one,” Thitero artificially deepened his voice to compensate for his pained whine. “You only need one, yes?” he asked, fearfully. “Attention is fine; more is better. I want your best, most strongest potion. If it uses one of my feathers, then it ought to be better than the other potions. Worth all sixty of the dollars.”
At the mention of money, he paused and reached into his vest pocket. “Do not have sixty, only have one,” he lied, brandishing a $100 dollar bill. “This will be enough? The cat will accept it?”

Kino smiled a bit as he watched Thitero chitter and adjust himself as he thought about what to do. And then the bird plucked a feather from what Kino assumed was his chest. "Ooh, that'll do nicely." He says, plucking the plucked feather from the bird adn dropping it into the liquid on the desk. The liquid started to bubble and Kino started to stir the liquid with the rod he had pulled out earlier. He grinned and got an idea, "Thank you... you know I never did catch your name." He said suddenly as he continued to stir slowly.
Then he put that plan into action. "Alright, going to be a bit loud for a moment." He warned the harpy, before shouting out suddenly.
"Come one, come all! Come see the mystical presentation of Alchemy at its finest!" He called out, pressing a few buttons beneath the stand that causes the Alchemical Delight's sign to light up a bit. He could easily pass off the display as an in depth roleplay. This was the perfect chance for him to acquire some extra customers and draw more attention to his stands, now that it seems to have died down a little.

Suzune would eventually wander over towards the strange tent-like area, her clothing drifting this way and that since she was wearing things with so much in the way of fabric - a coat that settled on her well, a loose blue blouse, black stockings and a matching skirt... She at least looked cute, even with her glasses making her look all the more 'nerdy'~
She settled in nearby, maybe catching some of the conversation on her way there... Feather? Sixty dollars? ...Actual potion? ...Either way, the girl mostly slunk into place nearby, not really hiding per se, but... moving in quietly enough that if someone wasn't looking at her, they wouldn't hear her!

Joselynn's ears perked up (metaphorically, compared to some con patrons) as she heard the sudden call to attention the cat boy was making. With a quick waddle she made her way over towards the Alchemical Delights, staring up at the blinking sign before looking back down towards the salesman evidently putting on a display. She pursed her lips in gentle "Ooooooh..." As she looked over him and his simple costume. Did he have two tails? Her mind rapidly went down it's files on mythology. A bakeneko? Yeah, definitely a bakeneko. She grinned at her own cleverness at figuring out his design despite the real chance that she had been mistake. Then she gave a small gasp as she noticed the harpy standing next to him. His outfit was so pretty... She had completely forgotten about what had brought her over in the first place as she eyed him over, taking in the details and effort put into his costume. THAT was the kinda costume she wanted.

Thitero began his flourishing introduction, but he barely got as far as, “The name of the one before you-” before the cat cut him off with his cacophonous lightshow. The display’s sudden brightness surprised him more than a little, and the harpy hopped back a step. As a crowd began to gather, he pressed close to the booth once more, shifting warily as more and more people gathered. Though generally comfortable around people, he instinctually hated the feeling of being trapped or surrounded, and it took great effort to resist the urge to spread his wings and fly up to the rafters. However, he needed to stay at least long enough for the cat to finish his potion and explain its use. Until then, he could bear the lack of personal space.
While he waited, Thitero decided this would make the perfect opportunity to test his newly acquired bracelet. The cat had said that it drew people’s eyes, which suited the harpy perfectly. He never bothered to wonder how he would know whether the bracelet gathered people’s attention or whether he himself earned their gaze. So when he spotted the pregnant woman staring straight at him, he attributed it immediately to his new piece of jewelry.

Giles Argent had intended to visit the alchemy table earlier, but had gotten caught up in his reading. He hoped it was still open...
