"How delightful!"

and

"Yeah, it ain't drek" She beams a bit

"Oh...." Her clever fingers pick up the items in turn. "I should, mayhaps, let Earl choose..."

"Save this. This, I shall take." She holds up a titanium ring, set with amethysts.

Earl blushes, then looks at Kylie "This feels like an ambush for me because I kind of want to get them all for her"

Kyle flutters her lashes "If you want me to pretend I'm sorry..."

He rolls his eyes

But admires the work "Kylie, this is amazing stuff" A glance to the ring

"Well, look it over and admire" Kylie turns to Zara "Okay, ready to haggle?" regarding the ring

"aye?"

And Kylie "Now, five pieces of dross or 6 hundred dollars seems more than reasonable for such a fine..."

Earl's eyes bug out a bit

But Zara knows someone highballing when she sees it.

"Feh!"

And Zara is at it!

Coradel is also perusing the wares of the crafters...though she might pause a moment to watch Zara at work.

Kylie is a socially adept nocker, but she's not trained to the degree Zara is in the give and take, the conquer and withdrawl of bargaining. Kylie points out she's a rising star. Zara points out you only rise if you don't weigh your chances down with silly demands as if you were already a legend. Kylie mentions the love and care she put in, Zara points out she's not buying the love and care she's got that on her own. Kylie mentions she will one day have resources. Zara hints that having witch proven able to help you is the almost literal bird in the hand

In the end, Zara has traded and bartered the girl down to a more than fair, perhaps even advantageous (For Zara) bargain

Zara offers her hand. "A fair deal."

And she shakes the hand, it's struck. The ring is hers, put in a little package for her, and then a look to Earl "Please tell me she doesn't haggle for you"

Earl smiles "She's been known to leap in"

Innocent look.

While Earl eyes the gothic selections left, Coradel notices that most of Kyle's jewelry craft is more lighter in tone

And one with a silver Lioness head design

"Oh...this." She reaches to rest a finger upon it, a light touch. "How interesting."

"Oh yes, I got the idea seeing a spirit animal totem type thing... I'm not one to culturally appropriate.. but it was really good. See I made the chain detachable, though it takes a fine hand, and you can have other things dangling instead. Flower blossoms or you know, an oak tree design"

"I also tried this for simplicity ..." She gestures "But it's more of a knick nack "

Love is indeed in the air

Coradel smiles at the two figures. "Oh, lovely!" And she turns to Zara and Earl. "Don't you agree?"

Perhaps she simply enjoys trying to make a sluagh blush.

Earl does blush "Quite nice"

PINK.

"Ah.. ahem."

But without waiting for a response, she turns back to Kylie. "I'm not sure how I feel about the snakes, no...but yes, a blasted oak in the center, and a lamp frame on either side? Would that be manageable?"

"I can have it set up for you within an hour or less depending on how busy it gets." Kylie says "I have options already pre made including house symbols like the oak"

"Ah, then...the question...how much? For both?" She indicates the coupled figures along with the pendant.

"Well, you're the boss so .." This time the haggling is less still starts a bit high, but not as high

Coradel makes a counter offer a bit lower, but not painfully so. And...she smiles beautifully as she does so.

Agreed... and a sale is made. Zara may observe that somethings, sidhe just have on Easy mode. Twas ever thus

Well, Coradel also has ample funds at her disposal. She arranges for payment and for the adjustments to be made to the pendant. She also has a boggan deliver the little statuette to the master chambers.

Earl readies to bargain, only to find the spider has already been sold! Squire Tylar, in a rare fit of deviousness, slipped ahead to get iwhile he could

No doubt for Velvet

Of course, Zara's eyes sparkled the most at the dainty little raven pendant....

And Earl moves quickly before THAT vanishes. Why he might even growl a bit if someone tries to weasel to it first.

That's when Zing says "You forgot this." And slaps something else up. A plastic display but it's what it is WEARING that draws eyes
