Surely the Slytherin would find potions to used them in...or just use them for experimentation. There was that, too.

When he got to the center with everyone else, they'd already set up and he was just left to stare at all that they were doing. Did this mean he'd need to make sales pitches, too? That wasn't the line of work Dylan wanted to do...What did THAT matter?

Ugh. Why was he complaining so much? Ergh.

Of course, he had his bag with him...five jars of eggs carefully nestled down into it...He was already pulling his wand to conjure a table when the Captain caught sight of his newly renamed Chaser. Odessa.

"Mate, share a table with me?" It was a question, of course. Dylan didn't want to invade the younger boys space...just in case. They'd had a talk and all was well now...but one could never know about these things. Also, was sharing tables allowed? He had no idea...

...and why were the jars covered? He pondered all these things.
"Yeah of course." West said, indicating the table where he was set up. He raised his eyebrows from behind the sunglasses he wore. "If you want to try something a little.... different." Really. He was thinking outside the box here, given he wanted to make money but not limit himself by running out of stock or competing with everyone else, that was just silly.

What was different exactly? West was still being mysterious and not hollering at customers to come over. He was also still wearing his sunglasses. The thing was, he was also trying to target people that weren't interested in buying eggs. The gamblers were definitely a good market. Also the greedy. They were his target too. And the naturally curious.

"Put yours under the cloth too, if you wanna join me." West said seriously.

Then he put a sign in front of the covered jars, one that he'd charmed to be animated. It was all about the flare and the show after all.

GUESS HOW MANY ASHWINDER EGGS AND WIN THE LOT
Only 6 sickles a guess!
13 sickles gets you three guesses!
6 wrong guesses gets you a consolation prize!
Buy a hint for just 1 galleon!
