Ceres

-Ping-

"Oh....Oh!" Ceres scrambled up as her eyes breezed over the message. "Oh no..Oh no! Oh Raidou..." She turned to him, sincere regret in her eyes. "I just got a message - I'm late to a prior engagement." She chewed her cheek as she pouted. How could she be so silly? "I didn't want to cut this short but...." With a flick of her wrist - Ceres had transferred all the materials and Col she had collected that day to Raidou. She gave him a large grin as she shuffled over to him.

"I hope this makes it up to you. Call it a truce. Or..." Ceres shifted herself so she stood between the wall and himself. "Call it a bribe! Yeh! See, now we have both gotta go out and get some spicy noodles sometime."

Then, without warning Ceres wrapped her arms around Raidou in a tight hug. She was truly happy to be able to spend this time with someone, and it had been so awfully nice. She nestled her face into the folds of his red jacket and inhaled. "Pfft, you smell nice, you know that?" And with that innocent sentence Ceres pulled away, tucking rosey hair behind her ear. 

"Promise me we'll hang out again soon?" She said with a serene smile, teleport crystal in hand.

"Take care! Bye! - Town of Beginnings!"

and with that, she had been whisked away - 

The goodbye was innocent, happy,  and yet...


why did it feel so final?

Ceres blinked when another person came into the store, he had the most interesting eyes - two different colours...what was that called again? Hetocreamycopia? She smiled warmly at him as she clasped her hands together, rubbing them. Ready for some work, she'd been cooped up here too long, but she really didn't have anywhere better to be or anything better to do - she had some friends but she felt like they were busy. She didn't feel overly attached to anyone either so here, in the shop - is where she spent most of her days.

"Oh wow! Hello!" Ceres beamed at the youth. "You have such stunning Hetocreamycopia eyes! Sure I can do that for you. Here..." She grabbed the items quick smart and started to sor through them. It was time to get to work...

Ceres rubbed her eyes and yawned; she had fallen asleep! My how silly of her!

She gave the first person to enter a wide and toothy grin. "Hey there, nice to meet you I'm Ceres. S-sorry..." She said sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her head. "I feel like I'm just sorta floating in an endless void these days, yanno, it's like I have no motivation. Whatsoever."  Ceres scurried about to get the items for the newcomer, just as she had finished ringing her up and waving goodbye another walked in.

This time it was someone Ceres recognized. "OH! Right away!" Ceres said with a long yawn as she got the custom ambition tool the pretty woman asked for. "Here."  Ceres handed it over to Yuki with the most sleepy of grins. "Hope to -yawn- see you again soon!"

"Oh hello!" Ceres said to the new person who had walked into the store, not long after Simmone had finished her transaction. "Whoa; your hair is so bright and pink! I love it!" Ceres exclaimed as she clapped her hands together. "So what can I do for you today?"  She listened as the woman approached and placed a unidentified spear on her counter.

"That'd be 680 Col Thank you!"

Ceres picked up the item and looked it over. "Hmm...this would probably be good for a tank - it's got taunt, and some bleed!" The Spear shone in her hands and flashed - taking form. It was now a long black spear; the handle edge was embroided with a thick Rose-Red material, and had a single rose charm dangling off the end of it. Ceres smiled. "Aww it's really nice isn't it. Like a stabby rose thing." Ceres flinched, when the items name popped up 'Stabby Rose thing'  Oops! Oh well. 

Ceres rolled the spear over to the pretty pink haired girl. "Here you go. anything else I can help you with today?"

Ceres leaned back, not caring about her clothing getting dirty as she used her arms as a pillow. Lilac eyes watched the ceiling, and how the various colours dance across it. Shifting ever so slightly thanks to the pools of water that littered the cave. How could Raidou think this place was so terrible? Ceres could totally imagine herself camping out here. And with the company of her be speckled friend? That was even better.  The worst thing about the place... was probably the trek to the actual room. Having to crawl hand over knee was a little embarrassing - then there was the noxious gases she had to be careful with when making the trip here.

"It's a shame though..."  She said quietly. "I'd love to visit here more often but I can't without you." She glanced at him. "I guess I just have to bug you to hang out with me more often, eh?"

Ceres watched as Raidou continued to work, she'd get back to the hunt soon- but she was enjoying her brief reprise. Raidou seemed successful, pulling different coloured stones from the wall. "Good work!" She said with a grin, encouraging him.  "I'm really happy to hear that. Maybe we did know each other someway in the real world, and just didn't know it!" Ceres shrugged. "I don't think this place is filthy, a little sticky maybe...but not filthy, its pretty."
 

"Hmmmm...." Ceres thought aloud. "Thinking about our earlier conversation... I like being able to help people but...if I'm being honest..." She shifted her gaze to the ceiling above. "I also don't want people to take advantage of me, maybe I'll increase the prices, juuust a little - but keep them the same price for friends. Because we gotta look after our friends. Don't we Raidou?" She asked as she looked back at him with her trademark bright and exuberant smile.  "I already have all my identifications at a super low price, virtually at cost! Sometimes I don't even charge for them - OH! And I nearly always offer discounts, I don't like uneven numbers so I round down."  Ceres laughed. "I suppose that makes me a pretty bad merchant, huh? At least I can continue helping others this way!"

His words...admittedly confused her - in essence it sounded like he thought she could charge anything, because the value was dependent on...what exactly? That's when it confused her. She furrowed her brows. It didn't really make sense. He seemed to like the idea of helping people over making a profit. Which to an extent, Ceres agreed on, but if she couldn't make some sort of profit margin, then how would she buy her food? "Mmmm....yeh...." Was all she could say to his words.

Ceres had ignored the mushrooms for now, instead choosing to listen to Raidou. Whilst she did want to win. She didn't want to win at the expense of ignoring her companion. Truth be told, she kinda really liked Raidou - he was awkward, and seemed to lack a lot of social skills much like her, he was also extremely skilled in gathering and very focused. She admired that about him. "You know Raidou...." She said quietly.  "I quite like you." She paused. "You're a good friend."

They were now out of the hustle and bustle of the town. Ceres drew in a deep breath - enjoying the fresh air. She thought about his words, and how she shouldn't be so self conscious... Oscar was right, she just began to doubt herself a little after the Dark Elf had said such pointed things to her. "I appreciate those words Oscar." Ceres said with a small skip to her step to keep up with his long broad, sweeping steps. "I don't like battling, but I love just taking my time and collecting things, and I guess it does well. Whenever I Get back from a gathering expedition I sell out of my mats right away!."

Her light mood darkened, just a little, when Oscar said there was a little danger - something about it being an AoE effect. Ceres pulled out the antidote that the old lady had given her. "S-should I take this just to be safe then?" She asked.  Ceres was ok with being knocked into the yellow - she had been before with the Swordfish fight. But into the red? Worse- with just 1 hp? She really, really didn't like the sound of that.  

"Ok but ahahaha..lets not let us get to 1HP Please."

@Oscar

There were no more buds on the top of the bush, instead, there were some twigs, covered in a shimmering sap. Did that count as a material? Only one way to find out. She carefully plucked one of them off of the bush, being careful not to touch any parts of the twig that had sap on it. That was the last thing she needed. "Aha!" It was a success. She plucked another few before dusting off her hands. There were still sickly sappy twigs sticking out of the bush but Ceres didn't want to be greedy.

"Let's see...after those twigs....I now have 11 Materials...Hmm I guess I should move onto the next bush." Ceres said as she lifted her lilac eye to glance up at the path before her, it lead straight to a shimmering pond, covered with gorgeous green lilly pads, and over a bridge was a Gazebo, a place Ceres didn't look at during her last trip to the garden. The path also split into separate paths, places she didn't explore. There was so much here that she missed. "Wow...I really spaced out last time didn't I?"  Ceres said as she shifted to the next bush.

"I should do this much more methodically..."

She understood? She understood! Ceres beamed brightly at the taller woman. Happy to hear that Lessa shared the same sentiment when it came to battling and fighting. "Right!" Ceres interjected. "I know we all want to get out of here and go home...but I don't wanna loose myself in that process." She fell quiet as she listened to the golden haired woman. She sounded wise beyond her years, explaining that it was their way of coping. Ceres couldn't really argue - she gave an awkward laugh as she scratched her cheek. "Aha...yeh...my way of coping was trying every single food item in every single restaurant on the first and second floors... I still don't think I've tried everything..."

Ceres followed Lessa's eyes to the job board, then fell down to her fluffy dog. "You know..." Ceres said quietly as she reached out to give Riker another pat. "It sounds silly because I know that all these things aren't real but I don't like the idea of slaughtering so many things just to get some experience. I was reading one quest ...the Dragon Hunter quest? You gotta kill Baby Dragons!"  Ceres shook her head. "A world so amazing that we have dragons, and there's a quest to murder their young! I don't get it! Why not give quests a pacifist route! That'd be so much more interesting...and less...murder..y."

Ceres turned her head to Lessa. "I kinda feel a bit relieved, hearing you say all this. I was really worried - that I'd be considered an outcast, or disliked because I just don't like the idea of battling." Ceres sighed as she reached out to the job board and ran a hand idly down it, fingers grazing over sheets of paper. "I know I'll have to, the beginner quest lines require it, and I'm being immature and frustrating to wish otherwise. But there's not a lot we can do about that I guess."

It was then Lessa mentioned that she taught kids. "Wait!" Her eyes lit up, "You were a teacher Lessa!? That's amazing! What did you teach? How did the kids act? Do you still keep in contact with them? Did you have some kind of School? Are there other teachers too?"

A little too many questions, fired all too quickly and all at once at the poor blonde.

@Lessa

There were still a few little green buds sticking out from the bush, ready and waiting to bloom into either flowers or something else, Ceres was not sure - but they would never live up to their dreams of being something more. For Ceres - the master gatherer that she was, had deftly picked the last three that she could visually see. "Sorry little buddies." She said with an amused grin. "But someone will turn you into something more." 

She held one up to her face. "Like you, you might be turned into a potion that will save someones life, or maybe melted down into a sword or shield." She popped it into her satchel to rest with the other materials she collected. It was amazing how they worked...one could collect almost anything and turn it into whatever a crafter could turn it into. 

Ceres was thankful she had chosen to be a Merchant. It was useful. She liked identifying things, and she enjoyed being able to sell the materials she collected.

 Ceres knelt down by the stack of crystals. She  reached out and with a small 'crack' snapped three pieces off, placing each one of them in her now swelling satchel. Hoo boy, she was glad she was collecting them. It took a lot of time, but her collected materials made her decent amount of Col in store. Maybe...she should charge a little more for them?  "Hey Raidou - I've been charging around 50 col for a T1 , 100 for T2 and I unno, maybe 150 for T3....am I undercharging for these? It's not like its hard to get them...but it does take a lot of time." 

After that Ceres lifted her arms high in the air and arched her back, backwards as she stretched. "Ooof... I'm going to sleep good tonight!" Ceres said with a grin. "Even better when you've tasted the spicy heat of my victory~" She goaded. Ceres looked over at Raidou. He had more or less gone a little quiet. Was that because he was concentrating? Ceres's smile faded ever so slightly as she lowered her arms so they countered her balance on the ground. A quick glance noted the nearby mushrooms, which she could attempt to pick for materials in a moment.

"Mmm, are you okay Raidou?" She asked, concern in her lilting tone. "I'm not distracting you too much, am I?" She was having a lot of fun with him, but she didn't want there to be complete silence between them- Ceres was the kind of person who enjoyed a good chat, and liked to be able to be social when she was around people. Sure, she wasn't very good at those interactions, but she enjoyed them.

Ceres bid goodbye to Bahr, happy to have helped him. He was beginning to be a good customer! So was Misery. Business was doing well for the young Merchant and she couldn't be happier about it.

"Oh! Hello!" Ceres said as another walked in right as Bahr was leaving.  "I'm Ceres! Grandmaster Merchant! I uhm..." She tilted her head to the side. Why did people always ask what she had in stock when it was clearly displayed and listed? Ah... no matter. She'd probably do the same thing. Ceres' earnest smile grew as she looked at the raven haired stranger.

"All our stock is listed on the blackboard behind me! I can also provide information about some players and quests, err..." She scratched her cheek with a chuckle. "I'm not exactly all knowing, but I got some decent knowledge at least! So ...."  Ceres clapped her hands together. "How can I help you today?"

Raidou said he hadn't actually thought about it, meaning he had no dietary issues. She had a feeling Benjamin was diabetic, by past conversations with him, which meant he could enjoy sweets an things here.  But if someone were vegetarian, or vegan - Ceres doubted they'd want to eat anything meat based. Even in a virtual game.

Ceres knelt down next to a pile of crystals that was growing out of the ground, there was a small stack of about five different protrusions, and the rose-redheaded woman began to deftly pluck each and every one from the ground, this was great. Each one ended up being a material. "Well Raidou! That almost tips me to 70! Not too much longer now."  She offered him a cheeky wink. "You know if I win I'm still gonna make you eat spicy noodles. I'll even be nice and take a teeny bite for myself!"

Ceres shifted, moving onto the next small deposit of crystals, she had this! She totally had this! No more distractions.

"Oh! uhm wow! Thank you so much!" Ceres said with a small bow, that was polite, right?  "You're really nice! I hope to see you again soon!" Ceres said with a small wave. She felt a little sad for him, she was hoping to find another unique item, but hey - they were few and far between. She should consider herself lucky to have found about three so far.  

Just as Misery left, another came in. With Bi coloured eyes and a deep red cloak. He stared at her from beneath a tuft of white hair. Almost menacing at first, but she could tell he was a kindly man. She was totally a good judge of character after all...

"You do!?" She said with a bright smile when he said he liked the space; "Aww that makes me so happy. Thank you. Ah Y-yes... I don't think I've been around for very long, maybe a month give or take?" 

Ceres blinked when he gave her a whole bunch of items to identify. "Oh... I should have these done by today."  She gave him a wink. "I'll have you know I've found some cool uniques recently! Maybe you'll be lucky and I'll find some more!"

Pls Send Ceres 400 Col from the banker pls and thank you :D 

Ceres' doors were always open, even if she was asleep. And right now, that was exactly what she was - asleep. Bundled up on a small cot in the corner of her store - since she had no home and didn't want to waste money at an inn. She was woken up by the ringing of the bells above her door. Ceres groggily sat herself up with a yawn, "Mmm How can I ...hel.p you?" Her eyes landed on Misery. The same, strange and enigmatic player from earlier.

"Oh wow! What happened? Are you ok!?"    Ceres asked with great concern, waking up more as she noticed the orange cursor above his head. Once again, she knew not the limits of 'personal space' as she came up close to him, almost circling him.  "I know this other Pker, Mari. But she doesn't come into towns - said her stealth skills aren't good enough and she doesn't wanna make a scene.... ah..."  Ceres offered Misery a small sleepy smile followed by a yawn. "Ahhh. That's why you came so late, isn't it?" She said as she tried to smooth out the wrinkles in her clothes.

"That's ok! I'll be sure to get to these right now for you so you can find a safe place to sleep! If you like I can reach out to Mari maybe she knows some good spots to bunker down for the night!"

Ceres picked up the items.

"And this one can either have bleed or paralyze on it - you have two slots so you can have one of each, or double up on one." Ceres glanced up at Misery. "I'd say you are the bleedy type." She said with a laugh. "But the previous weapon  I did for you already has that, right?"



@MISERY

Ceres simply shook her head as Benjamin told her that her smile lit up a room. She wasn't entirely sure of that. She wasn't interested in 'finding a cute guy'  or even a girl for that matter. Ceres didn't come to this event to find a romantic interest or fling, she came to have fun - but she had a feeling that probably wouldn't happen at this point. Her mood had already been sullied, and she had been a little too rattled. Ceres was normally quick to recover from such things, but nights like this made it hard.

"You're welcome!" Ceres said with a smile and a wave as Benjamin turned to no doubt find Dazia - and do...whatever it is they were going to do. As he turned her smile faded and the rose-red headed woman sighed as she lowered her hand. Watching him disappear into the tent. She was left standing alone on the path up to the falls. Ceres turned on her heel and started to walk up the path toward them - that sounded nice. And realistically, she still planned to have her alone time, Ceres wasn't expecting Benjamin to have come up to her like that.

Ahhh Quiet and peace. Ceres liked this sometimes.

Ceres nodded. "Erm...kinda...yeh...I do." She scratched her cheek, feeling a little awkward. She didn't like seeing her friend this way. "But she also may not...but...call this womans intuition, but she definitely is smitten for you."

"-but seeing you hurt like that just... it just tore me up, you know."

Ceres took a step back and covered her cheeks, which had flushed as he said those words. "B-Benji! Stop!" It felt...well, it felt something. Like a slightly dizzying feeling when he had said those words. Sure Ceres had friends, but she wasn't sure when the last time she had heard someone so easily say something so heartfelt and comforting to her. "That's really sweet, but...I'm not worth that!" Ceres gushed. She lowered her hands, they fell to her ballgown, and scrunched up the crimson material in her tiny fists. "I don't think I've had many people who care like that...so thanks." She managed to say, clearly flustered.

Right. Back to the topic at hand. Ceres turned back to Benji who was fidgeting, a part of her wanted to reach out to him - and make a joke as she shoved something silly in his hands to make him feel better, but now didn't feel like the right time for silly shenanigans like that. It seemed like he was trying to work through his feelings. So probably needed to concentrate. "You talk to me just fine." Ceres offered. "I really like our conversations." Ceres pursed her lightly glossed lips as he asked what he was supposed to say. "I think this depends on what you want to do Benji." Ceres let go of her dress and reached out to take each of his hands in hers. "You shouldn't discount yourself so easily, you were doing just fine at the party before I barrelled into things and made a mess." She said with a wince. "You've cleaned up well, and look quite dashing. So Do I think you can do whatever it is you set out to do? Yes." Ceres gave him a reassuring squeeze before letting go.

"The question you need to ask yourself is, do you feel the same about her? If you do, I think tonight would be a nice night to talk things out. And if you don't - you shouldn't feel guilty, we can't control our emotions or who we fall for." Ceres pointed to herself. "I mean, I was stupid enough to be enamored with an NPC, because she was being so kind and genuine to me." She said with a fragile laugh.
