you make your way up this skeptical staircase: it smelled of century-old cinnamon and just the slightest hint of thyme.
"there's a demi-deity up there," the locals say.
"if you offer him something he likes, they say he'll return the gift up to 200 times the value."
but you weren't so sure about that, because when you burst into the nocturne dust-ridden attic, there's no mystical dragon to be seen. you expected at least a starmapped, stomach rolled snapper. you sigh and begin to turn around, when suddenly a cool purple mist wraps around your ankles.
[i]"my my, who do we have here? a visitor? oh, i sure do love putting on a card show, teehee.~"[/i]
you're suddenly sitting on a silken cushion before a winding spiral with the galaxy on his underbelly.
[i]"are you here to test your luck too? i'll have you know i am hard to please."[/i]

here we go!
here's a simpler explanation if you didn't catch the plot.
1) you write a response to Scorpio, rp-style, on how you respond. then, you can give him something(must be something on FR, anything is okay!). write into why you'd think he would enjoy this. then you send me that item!
2) i will respond with Scorpio, and possibly, if he likes what you've given him, he'll return the favor with something worth far more.
3) bonus: if you write a very intricate, interesting response to Scorpio and i like it, you don't have to send me anything! i'll send you something possibly from your wishlist.

PearlFlower gets comfortable on the cushion and gives Scorpio a sly look. “ yes, I suppose i’ll try my luck. “ She reaches into her cloak, and pulls out a depleted astounding reflection. “ I believe you’ll like this, cause I can tell, you like to play tricks, like I do. So here you go. Use it well, I have used it as a prank on a few of my friends. “

"Wah!" With a soft cry Maxwell dropped what he had. The... entity... standing before him seemed to be waiting patiently (if not expectantly) for a response.
Maxwell would have fallen over with surprise, but he found that he was already sitting down. In a very comfy thing, at that. "Oh... This actually feels quite nice." He shifted a bit in the seat. "But I never expected to actually meet such a powerful being here. I thought everyone was just pulling a prank on me!"
The hatchling gulped nervously, "Well, I suppose I better give you your gift, Mister." Maxwell reached into the burlap pouch he had been carrying in his mouth. The hatchling seemed to be a bit flustered. He reached around the edges of the bag multiple times. "Oh... This is so embarrassing. Why did I only bring Mr. Shadowbinder up here? Oh no..."
The hatchling cleared his throat a bit and then smiled guiltily, "Well, it would seem I've made a mistake coming here, but I hope you don't mind... I don't have that much to give. Well, other than... this... It might not seem like much to you, but this is my prized possession. My Mr. Shadowbinder doll!"
The young one held up the plush rather proudly.

"My dad- er... Nightshade gave me one of every deity. I was playing dolls with some friends when a strange man told us about this place. Everyone said I should go see and... Well, I just hope you'll cherish him as much as I do! You two have somewhat similar colors, even." He dropped the doll before Scorpio.[/center]

[i]"oohh...what a beautiful mirror."[/i]
Scorpio gazes into the mirror, getting momentarily lost in his own reflection.
[i]"i am slightly disappointed that this mirror does not don the pair of beautiful eyes it once used to...but perhaps, it can open a new world to you."[/i]
he whisks his paw over the surface of the mirror, and a burst of butterflies escapes into the crisp air.
[i]"i don't have a thing for wearing animals, for that they tend to disappear into my galaxy..but it seems that you do."[/i]

Sojiro nearly jumped as the spiral appeared, but quickly calmed himself and sat up in his seat. "Well, I came here to see if the rumors were actually true" He replied, shifting a bit. "Seems they were, in fact. Great info for my maps, actually" He reached for his scroll case, but stopped. "Actually, I like to try my luck sonetimes...so here you are". Spiro reaches into his coat pocket, and places down a small rock with a glowing swirl. "I hear they're very valuable, but I don't find use for these. You seem like a shadowy trickster, so I think you would love it" Sojiro smiled, before beginning to scribble on a map while occasionally glancing at Scorpio.

Scorpio giggles and plops the Shadowbinder doll down in his chair.
[i]"I am pleased to hear a little one comparing me, a mere zodiac deity, to such a powerful being as the Shadowbinder."[/i]
Scorpio slithers over to his bookshelf, and plucks a heavy book and places it upon the floor before the little hatchling.
[i]"it's dangerous for little boys like you to be traveling alone. perhaps you could use a companion. oh look! he even resembles Mr. Shadowbinder."[/i]

Scorpio picks up the rock and examines it with interest.
[i]"indeed, i've seen these go for quite the value. contains magic of the shadowbinder, yes?"[/i]
Scorpio examines him and disappears into a heavily draped corner. you hear the rustling of cloth and he emerges with his face hidden behind his items. he drops most of them when he's walking over.
[i]"a map maker, perhaps? i'm sure you hold lots of valuable information, then. don't want you to freeze: take this robe. looks flashy perhaps, but foreigners of the Southern Icelands find it quite...fashionable. could possibly fetch you a pretty penny, yes?[/i]

Shaking off the hypnotic effect of Scorpio's glowing star, the Pearlcatcher slowly relaxes into the cushion. Hopefully, if this venture is successful, and they bring back something for the clan, they'll earn either another gene, or perhaps some apparel pieces. Grasping their pearl tightly, they reached into their satchel, trusting that their pearl would help them make the right choice. Their claw caught on an item, and holding their breath, they took out:
[center][item=Earthen Masque][/center]
Stifling a chuckle, they can't help but reach up towards their own counterpart mask. What were the chances? "Here you are. 'Course, the mask might not be the pick for your colors, but going back to your roots is never a bad option. Lest you forget your Earth heritage, this might awaken some memories."

Argai saw nothing through his own eyes; his Snow Streak, Paradox, sat atop another cushion, staring at the spiral. Aragi looked instead through Paradox's eyes. "Yes, I suppose I have come to.. give you something. Multiple things, actually." He said, before grabbing his staff out of his bag, and than held his staff in his jaw. He mumbled something low, before a few items and familiars appeared. A small sweetpuff appeared, and snuggled up to Paradox. Paradox in return gave an annoyed squawk and pecked the Sweetpuff on the head. The Sweetpuff chirped, scared and surprised. A Bumble poked his head out of a corner and scampered over. He buzzed slightly before curling up and falling asleep. A Luna Mith stayed a bit away from everyone, being the introvert she was. A Bluelight Chipskink glowed, and created a bit of light in the dim room. A Common Podid shook angrily, stomping his many feet on the ground in anger. Aragi shrugged, and looked through Paradox's eyes before zoning back out into seeing the darkness again. "They're your problem now." He said, shrugging again. He shook his staff once more, that sparked a dim blue light before the familiars and two dragons. A small pile of apparel appeared. Gloves, googly eyes, a Druid's Woodtrail and two magenta bows, one for the neck, one for the wing laid in the pile. "This is yours now. I don't need it, and I certainly don't want it. You seem like the kind of dragon that would use this kind of stuff. I hope you find it use to you." He said, tail twitching. Paradox had now perched on Aragi's tail and narrowed his eyes at the spiral dragon, and chattered a bit. Aragi took no mind of it. "There you go." He said, taking a claw and pushing the pile of stuff forward, as Paradox looked at the familiars, thinking that he was the best familiar. Aragi shifted slightly, waiting for the extravagant spiraled dragon's response.
