"Fifteen sickles each. I have three eggs in this jar so that would be..." He paused for a while. A long while, and added it up on his fingers. "It would be like, at least 3 galleons." Close enough. He eyed her one measly galleon that she handed over to him, but his arms were still crossed. Sure, he knew that customers liked a good bargain but he wasn't that generous.
"You should have come to me first." He said, looking over to that guy that had just sold her his eggs. Theo couldn't remember his name, but knew that he was on the team this term. And then she was complimenting his hair and complexion. Well... he would agree but this was just a weird first conversation. Theo just raised an eyebrow and slowly nodded.
So, was it a deal? OH he talks! Marci didn't really listen to everything he said, she just caught the three galleons part. She kept checking the other tables and her grandpa far away. "Three eggs per jar? I wonder how many eggs that boy had in his jar. I'm not about to just put my hand in and find out though. Did you wash the eggs after retrieving them? Speaking of which, where exactly did you get those eggs from? Did you wait an Ashwinder to lay some and retrieved them? Is that what students are doing now at Hogwarts? I think it's really cool that you're trying to help your school, don't get me wrong, but I still wonder about things you know. It's like I'm still ten when barely anything made any sense at all. I'll take the jar, it's still cheaper than that boy. Oh and by the way, you're not supposed to cross your arms when you talk to a customer." She added two galleons to her coin and put them on his table, looking genuinely mellow as she gave him her precious piece of advice. "You have to assume a more friendly and less snobby demeanor. It's hard, I know. I had difficulty too when I started working, but surprisingly people won't just approach you because you have nice hair. Really weird, huh?" There are lots of weird things in this world, Marci was definitely not one of them. She took her second jar from the boy and flashed him a big grin, "Nice to talk to you! And thank you for the eggs! You were really nice. See you around!" She hopped back, the jars dangerously swaying in her arms, and turned to call to Botros. |
