Goldenrod City Christmas Market

Who: Everyone
Where: Goldenrod Christmas Market
When: December 1st - December 31st
Summary: Ah, Christmas time! A time of joy, family and... commerce?


Like every year, the Goldenrod Christmas Market is opened on December 1st by a Santa (not the Santa, but certainly a Santa) with a merry Ho-Ho-Ho and a jolly tinkle of sleigh bells. And like every year, the stalls are stacked to the brim, overflowing with everything you might wish to buy this Christmas season. Every few stalls, the items make way for hot food and drink -- waffles, hot chocolate, cider, you name it and you can most certainly find it.

New this year, however, is that the stalls are not just manned by people native to this world. For the first year ever, Otherworlders have also had the option of setting up a stall, whether for the entire month or just for a few days. So if you have a special skill, a knack for crafting, or simply a lust for poke-bucks, why not come join the festivities and maybe make a little extra money?

[ Patches chitters happily and scampers off to follow Static. ]

How about... One of each? I'm only keeping one egg for myself, so I'll use the bag for that, and then the other one will go with the egg I'm giving to my Secret Star King!

[ Static leads Patches under the table, and though some of the scarves have been put away, he's able to fish them back out of the back, holding up several different ones in their size, in a variety of colors. ]

That works! [ Reaching under the table (and being careful of the Pachirisus down there), she pulls out a few more selections of each cozy. ] Go ahead and choose which ones you'd like.

[ Rainer peruses the selection of egg cozies, and picks out a pink one for herself, and an orange and red one for her Secret Santa gift. ] There. That'll match the Torchik egg perfectly.

[ Patches, for her part, picks out a bright yellow scarf for herself. ]

[ With a smile, Fluttershy nods. ] Perfect! Is, um... [ She hesitates a little, trying to remember how best to price the items out. ] 3500P for each all right?

[ It is very good that Fluttershy doesn't own a store normally, she would never really turn a profit. ]

[ Rainer raises an eyebrow. ] Only 3500P? Are you sure that's enough? I'm willing to pay more, since everything is handmade!

[ She comes from somewhere that hasn't invented factory-made items, but she still appreciates the value in handmade goods. ]

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-01-16 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Um...no, I think that should be enough. I also help out at the Poke Center sometimes, so it should be all right.
necrodentia: (picrew58)

[personal profile] necrodentia 2022-01-18 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, well, if you're sure...

[ She hands over the 3500P, but she fully intends to have Patches slip another 500P into one of Fluttershy's bags before the day is over. ]

How'd your sales go? Were a lot of people buying your knitted creations?
shiningkindness: (234)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-01-20 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ With a smile, she takes the money, and hands it to Static to put away. ]

Oh yes. I've had a several people stop by and get something. The egg cosies are the most popular, but I've also had quite a few people buying accessories.

[ Fluttershy is really glad to know that she isn't the only person who enjoys dressing up her animal friends. ]

That's great! They really are well made. How long have you been knitting?

[ Patches is happily snuggled in her new scarf, as she tries to surreptitiously sneak the 500P bill somewhere that Fluttershy and Static won't see it. ]

[ Fluttershy doesn't notice, but Static totally does. But he's more than happy to help Patches sneak the additional money into Fluttershy's bag, because his trainer deserves a nice little extra. ]

Thank you! I've been knitting for a few years. It's very meditative, and helps calm me down when I'm nervous. [ Which is often. ]

[ Somewhere off to the side, Patches and Static exchange a surreptitious high five. ]

That sounds great! My dad used to do the same thing, but with baking. Any time he was stressed, he'd go to the kitchen and start making scones.
shiningkindness: (011)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-01-28 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, high five! ]

Oh, a friend I have back home does that too! [ Then again, Pinkie Pie just kind of...bakes for everything. ] Did they taste good?
necrodentia: (PB 49)

[personal profile] necrodentia 2022-01-31 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
They were delicious. My dad is an incredible baker. It probably just goes to show how often he gets stressed!

[ Life is hard for the Lich King. ]
shiningkindness: (223)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-01-31 09:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh goodness. He must have had a lot going on. But at least something good came out of it.

[ And tasty too. ]

[ Rainer shrugs, like, "what can you do?" ]

It can be hard, when you're leading an army of the undead.
shiningkindness: (397)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-02-09 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... ]

The...undead?

[ She remembers Rainer mentioning something about dancing skeletons before, but "undead" sounded more like zombies, which is something entirely different. ]
necrodentia: (PB 17)

[personal profile] necrodentia 2022-02-16 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, you know... Skeletons, zombies. Things like that.
shiningkindness: (228)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-02-17 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
O-Oh. [ Well...that's a thing. ] Is that, um...normal in your world?
necrodentia: (PB 62)

[personal profile] necrodentia 2022-02-20 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, not for most people... But my dad and I are Necromancers, so it's pretty normal for us, yeah.
shiningkindness: (084)

[personal profile] shiningkindness 2022-03-02 09:24 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh. Okay. I...guess that isn't too scary for you then, huh?
