Tyrone wasn't sure how long exactly the convention was going to be, but he realized he used a lot of his extra savings for coming here and he never liked not having extra funds on hand if something went wrong. Like if his truck broke down or his house got invaded by roaches, who knows, things hapoen all the time in life and he wanted to be prepared. But he also realized that.... you don't sell car repairs at conventions, so what could he sell? The only thing he could think of was his wood carving skills, but he never hardly showed it to anyone so he was a little insecure..... But he did bring some with him along with his knife and some blank wood for if he found a place to do it at.
A little bit later, Tyrone was setting his little booth up across the way of the bar, random choice purely and he didn't notice it until he was done. Hopefully he won't have to face too many drunks he thought. With a soft hum the densin continued setting up his stand, placing various little wooden creatures, some no bigger then two inches tall, could make good pendants, while others were more handheld like a tiny kitten. They all had pretty nice details but one could tell they were not made for profit, due to various tiny details like collars and markings. They were far from professional too, but that made them affordable as well. He set up a simple chair as well and sat down, a little sheepish and nervous about dealing with people like this, but everyone else seemed to be doing it which helped.

Janet had been on the way to the bar to get a lemonade or something to carry around the convention but then she spotted the carvings. And she had to go over them. They seemed like they would be the absolute best souvenirs from this convention.
"Do you mind if I hold them while I look at them?" She asked excitedly, her hands hovering over the booth, just itching for permission.

Tyrone was busying himself with making sure they were all straight, he didn't even notice the young girl walking up to his booth, making him quickly perk up when she spoke. He looked to her face and nodded, pulling his hand back. "Of course lass, go right ahead. " He said nicely with a closed lip smile.
Most of them were animals, but some were mythical creatures like dragons, griffons and unicorns. While there was a few environmental ones like trees, mountains or there was one handheld river. He saw her eager hands and it made his smile widen a little, having never expected such excitement from anyone over these.

Her eyes fairly sparkled as she grinned and began to take a closer look at the more fantastical carvings, especially the more predatory ones like dragons and griffins. "What's you're name? I'm Janet."

Tyrone was happy to see her looking at the dragons and such, having been most proud of those. "Oh, name's Tyrone miss Janet, it's nice to meet ye. How have ye been doing around the convention? " He asked calmly, leaning back in the chair some.

Janet giggled. "It's not miss Janet. It's just Janet. And it's been wonderful! I can hardly believe all of the great costumes here." She grinned as she picked up a carving of a dragon and a princess. "I'n fact your's is pretty good, what with the prosthetic teeth."

Tyrone chuckled a little as she corrected his manners, nodding once to that. "Alright, Janet it is. " He said, watching her look at a little princess and dragon. The princess wasn't easy as he made her somewhat small to match the dragon in size better. But when she mmetioned teeth his heart skipped a beat in his chest, eyes widening a little for a second, opening and closing his mouth once or twice as he tried to speak. "O-oh yes, aye yes, the.... prosthetic teeth.... Need to make them look real if I want a chance to win the challenge. "He stumbled some over his words, but ended with a slight blush and smile to her, hoping he didn't fail too horribly just then.

Janet giggled in a friendly manner. "Well they're very fetching if a bit understated." She chuckled to herself a bit more as she continued examining the carving, obviously it was quickly becoming her favorite. She paused realizing it would be rude to not share the joke that popped into her head.
"After all they're all the better to eat me with." She replied with a naive giggle and a wink. It was obvious that she was trying to be flirty, and equally obvious that not only was she failing but she had no idea how true her words were.

Tyrone wasn't even sure what to say, no human, or anyone for that matter, said that about his sharp fangs. Of course, she was the first that didn't know they were very much real. The blush remained on his cheeks some, starting to grin some now, even if it showed the lower broken one some. "Why thank ye lass, I must say it's the first costume I worked on, so I am glad they came out so well. " He said, able to keep calm now better since she seemed to just be thinking them as fake.
To her joke and wink, he laughed some with her giggle, deciding to play along a little more. There wouldn't be any harm in it he didn't think. "Perhaps they are little lass, ye never know, I might get hungry while yer still here~ " He teased in a gentle, but playful tone. But to accidentally add to it, his stomach did give a rather loud grumble, even if it was unintended by Tyrone.

"Well maybe you should sell some prop work along with these awesome carvings. You'll make a killing." She smiled and resumed her inspection, this time she was looking for a price tag as she decided this was the carving she would go home with, though if he had any leather chord she might get a pendant too. Maybe a matching set for her and her sister...
Then he made that comment and his stomach punctuated it with THAT noise. Janet blushed and bit her lip. "Well hunger isn't always a bad thing, especially if you have something to sate it with." She made a second attempt at a flirtatious wink, but was certain she had botched it as well. This conversation had definitely started a minor heat wave in her body with a chance for increased humidity.

As she examined the carving, she may find a little white sticker on the bottom that was marked for $5. While Tyrone just lightly laughed some when she said he should sell prop work.... He didn't like lying, it made him feel guilty, as the truth was he probably couldn't make very good prop items, unless it was wood related. But he had to not tell her, as much as he wanted to and not lie to the nieve young girl. If she were to ask, who knows, maybe he did have some string for her, probably leather but soft.
He was worried for a second that the sound would scare her, but instead she blushed? He was confused on that, but it was cute, it made her look like a sweet strawberry in his eyes. The flirting was indeed failing, but Tyrone felt it was the thought that counted, which made him grin more and chuckle deeply. "Indeed yer right little Janet, it can be rather enjoyable actually to sate hunger, especially with a cute, tasty little lass~ " He teased again, noticing she seemed to like it so he didn't see why he shouldn't play along as this time he licked his lips and teeth.

Janet set the carving down away from the others and began looking at the pendants, trying to find a matching pair.
Janet blushed deeper and bit her lip as she attempted to surreptitiously check to see if her panties were really as damp as she thought they were. Once she was satisfied they were she tried to stammer out a reply, but it took a few seconds before she managed to get a coherent sentence out. "Well I he-heard these curves are p-pretty fuh-filling." She couldn't even finish with a flirty wink as she was way to flushed to manage it.

There was a few matching carvings, a few little dragons similar to the one she was looking at, wolves, griffons, trees and even a few kittens. She had a few to choose from at least.
However Tyrone blinked with confusion to see how she reacted, oh lord what did he do? He felt a pang of worry, not realizing just how.... exciting his words were to her. Did he break her or something? He wasn't sure what happened. "Are ye okay Janet? " He asked her after slowly standing up with a tilt of his head, concern clear on his face as he gazed down at the flustered young lady.

Janet picked a matching pair of wolves and set them next to the carving she picked for herself. "umm do you have string for these or anything like that?"
She paused. "Yeah. I'm sorry if I worried you. It was really umm exciting talking with you." Her face brightened up.
"Maybe I can go get some food to bring over to you and we can have lunch together?"

Tyrone kept his worried gaze on her as she picked out some wolves, hearing her question. "Yes I do, here ye go Janet. " He reached down behind the stand to grab a few strings like she asked, some were black, some were dark brown and others were light brown. "Here, they're different colors so ye can pick which ye like best. " He layed them out on a clear spot on the table.
He hummed softly and nodded, blushing some again as she said it was exciting talking to him. Then she offered to have lunch with him and before he could stop himself, he couldn't help but give a final tease. "Of course, that sounds rather fun Janet.... Just make sure ye bring enough sandwiches or ye just might be the perfect lunch for me~ " He said playfully again, but kept his expression soft and kind.
