@FinerFins 《 because--You're right to assume that I can't afford the good ones."

Betta carefully took off the headdress and stared at the shimmering gems.

"I can't wait to see someone wear this. They'll really be the center of attention--Your jewelry, not the person."

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

The Zora had grown more distant than usual with the people of the domain. She was rarely seen during the daylight hours and a few appearances in the night.

Mostly hunting for fish and gathering materials for her home.

Sometimes, she'll have her curiosity and peek inside 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins Why did she ask? Perhaps she was curious on how much the wealthy would pay for this easily. How much of her hard earned money was lacking to obtain it.

"I would only like to know how you're pricing works of art like this. I normally don't purchase something like this》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 closer--As she did, her fins flared. In her mind, she thought it was someone else looking back at her.

She was afraid to ask.

"H-How much. . Mako?"

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins Betta glanced over towards the mirror, her cheeks turning warm once she took in this new look.

"They. . really do make a difference."

No longer for that moment did she appear as someone far beyond the background. Betta looked almost regal.

The female stared 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 to him.

"I wouldn't know how to wear it--Would you help? Help me place it on?"

She didn't know why she'd ask. It's not like she could ever afford this kind of work. . Not even wear it.

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins Her eyes widen once the set was held out to her. Someone with such skill made a few simple stones look like a one of a kind.

Betta carefully took the headpiece and only stared at the rubies.

"Absolutely gorgeous. ."

The Zora let out a sigh before holding it back out 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 that is placed on my head. . maybe tail. Do you have something like that?"

Betta question with hesitation. She had heard that only those pieces were made and saved for the higher Zora's. Betta was considered a bottom feeder so this demand was unusual.

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins The only Zora in the Domain to think about her. She couldn't help but hold back a large grin. Her tail, in fact, swayed happily with the thought of him holdinf back some of his pieces.

This poor love-strucken Zora.

"I had the idea of perhaps trying out a piece of jewelry 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 Everyone is always dying to know what you'd gained past the domain.

Is there anything you saved for me?"

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins "Me? Like my company?"

Why did she have an interest with this certain Zora? For his amazing talent in the crafts? His appearance?

Possibly how much he stood out. . Much like a gem hiding in a generic stone.

"It never fails for your shop to get crowded after your trips. 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 》 took slow steps to the counter.

"You're back again--"

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins While waiting for this wave to head out, Betta had been circling around the shop, anxiously awaiting the time to speak to this male. And noticing the final customer leave, she hurriedly peaked inside from the entrance.

Just him.

Betta made her way inside and 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 expanded naturally to flare out when someone comes near.

Betta pulled away and let out a huff. Should she wait or continue her errands?

Was it creepy to wait?

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins That smile and wave was worth the long wait. Instead of waving back, she kept her gaze still set on him--Her tail did sway side to side in the wave of happiness.

Soon, her gaze was broken when a couple of his customers got in the way of her view.

Her frontal fins 》

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins 《 Oh no, she did however smoosh her face against her usual window to see if he was actually there.

Pretty weird if anyone didnt know her like how he did.

Betta naturally stare without knowing in that usual sharp gaze of hers.

". . ."

[BΣTTΛ @FishingForBones]

@FinerFins On her usual daily rounds to sneak back home, she'd noticed the commotion of zora's making their way to the jewelry shop.

Her heart skipped a beat, realizing that Makolo had returned from his trip.

A skittish-natured Zora would never push herself through a crowd. 》
