Goldenrod City Christmas Market

[indigo_league]

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?

"That would depend on the species involved in the clutch and whether or not the eggs will be stationary."

Someone with a weaker moral compass would, perhaps, immediately estimate the highest plausible number and suggest it. Cecil merely closes his eyes and takes a few moments to think about it.

"If you plan to leave the eggs at home, you can fit five on a set of four pillows placed in a square formation. It's a somewhat tight fit, but they'll be stable and warm right until they hatch."

Eyes open once more, he grabs two pillows and hums. Immediately, Tellah slides off his back and settles in front of him.

"If you plan to transport them... it'd be one pillow per egg, ideally. That said, if you only keep eggs in a bag and if they can be placed horizontally in a secure manner, you could pile up three, with two pillows to separate them."

As he speaks, he puts his left hand on the counter, palm up, and sets the first pillow upon it. His Delibird quickly lets himself drop on top of the pile, barely reacting when Cecil's right hand presses the second pillow down. Ta-da! A three-egg sandwich.

This is why he knows that he can trust Cecil with the goods that he sells. That kind of careful consideration is exactly what Dimitri is looking for, and he pays close attention to what Cecil suggests. He knows that Grant occasionally goes traveling with them, although they all haven't done as much since their gym challenge has hit a slight delay, but... How many eggs does he really take with him? Dimitri never thought it was too many...

"My Munna, and my boyriend's Swinub, both seem to be regular partners," he muses, "so perhaps quite a few pillows would not be bad, since I do not think Grant carries many with him... The home is truly better for such a thing. Would it be a problem if I bought too many, however?"
