Irma was walking aroung the market place. The shopkeeper asks her what she wants and she says "Something shiny, please."
"Ummm..." The shopkeeper said. " Its all shiny, you are at a jewelry stall." Irma looks round and realizes this. She pickes up a blue necklace and look at it. She is entranced. It is sooooo pretty.

**Only Quincy can hear Opus's thought-speak.
Quincy walked around the market, looking at all the shops. I hope there's a musical shop around here, he thought. Pianos and harps and banjos and-
QUINCY...[/b] his feline companion Opus complained, I'm boooooored.[/b] She stuck her head out from his pack and looked around, until she spotted a jewlery shop. Ohhhh, sparkily, she thought. I'm gonna go check that out, k?[/b] she thought-spoke to Quincy. She jumped down to the busy street and went into the shop.
"Opus, hold on! Wait for me!" Quincy ran over to the shop to find that Opus had forgotten about the shiny jewlery and had taken to nuzzling a brown haired girls leg. I like this girl, Quincy. You should talk to her.[/b]
Quincy sighed and walked up to the girl, picking up Opus. "Sorry about her," He said.

Diana noticed that Kuumee was walking faster than usual. "Where are you leading me, Kuumee? We are just out to get some bread." It was then that Kuumee stopped, and she could hear his tail wagging. She also heard breathing in-front of her. Two people were less than a metres width away. She smiled and realised that one of them was a girl, and the other a boy. And, in the boy's arms was another life-form. She listened, and it took her awhile to realise that it was a kitten. She also couldn't smell any cooking bread, which meant Kuumee hadn't lead her to where she wanted to go. "Hello!" She said. "It seems that Kuumee hasn't lead me to the bread store." She heard Kuumee's tail wag even faster at the mention of his name.

Nero walked down the long street that seemed to never end. He could hear merchants call out for his business.
"Mister you look like someone who could use a new sword, I have some of the finest swords in all the land right here," one of them called to him but he continued to walk past him.
"Sir, try on one of my pairs of boots they look a lot more comfortable then what you are wearing," another one called out.
He shook his head, he was only in town to visit one merchant for what he usually bought here. He needed some new arrows, since he was now out. The sun was beating down on him, but it didn't bother him at all. Sure his arms might burn, but he didn't mind that. He finally reached the merchant, and laid down two gold pieces.
"I want a full quiver of your finest arrows," he said.
The man took his gold pieces, and handed him a tattered quiver. Nero took the arrows out of the quiver and placed them into his own. He turned and walked away from the man, stopping to look at another small stand.

Irma jumped. She looked down and realised that it was a little kitten. She saw the boy who owned the cat. He was around her age. He's kinda cute. But he looks a bit sad. i dont know why.......Oh wait he's talking to me!
"Sorry about her" he said
"oh no thats OK I like cats. Well i dont know what they are like really. I have a turtle so he's pretty quiet."
Awwwww.......hes so cute.....i could just stare at him all day.....oh he's talking to me again!
"Ummm do you know if there is any music stalls around here?"
"Not sure" she said "You could try over there I think I MIGHT have seen one" She said this all without thinking because she was too busy looking at him.

Diana pulled at Kuumee's leash and walked off. She was going to go and find a bread stall. "Come on Kuumee, leave the kitten alone." She walked out of the jewelry place and around to a bread stall. When she was there, she accidentally let go of Kuumee's leash. "Oh, no Kuumee! I can't find my way around without you!" She stayed where she was.
Kuumee ran back to the jewelry store and woofed quietly at the people there. He went over to the kitten in the boy's arms and sniffed it. He liked other animals lots. He wagged his tail at the kitten.

((natakat, you speaking for Quincy is kinda like god-modeing, which is a big no-no. It was okay, since it was in character for him and I would have probably said it myself, but I think you have to let me ask about music shops for him. If this isn't right Jelly, please say so and I'll delete this from my post.))
(also, some animals can hear Opus's thought-speak, although most can't, so if Kuumee can then that's fine, if not that's fine too)
"Okay, thanks. I think I'll-"
Opus struggled in Quincy's arms. "What, Opus?" he asked, a bit annoyed before letting her go. "Don't wander too far," he warned.
She walked up to the dog. An instinct told her to be frightened of it, but her curiosity overcame her fear. What are you?[/i] she asked, which sounded like a meow to everybody but Quincy. She was born in the forest a few weeks ago, and had never seen a dog before.
"It looks like Opus found a friend," Quincy said with a smile, looking towards the two animals. He looked back to the bubbly girl with brown hair that was... staring at him. Do I have some dirt on me? he thought absentmindedly before focusing his attention back to her, then realized he had never given her his name. "I'm Quincy."

(umm, livvie, quincy did say that, nat was just saying what you said he said in her post. oh wait....nope, dont worry. I'll try explaining that to Nat. She doesn't really understand yet...)
Kuumee looked at the cat. What the? It can speak! He wagged his tail even harder. I'm a wolf-dog, of course! You know, wolves as in large and wild, and dogs as in protecting and domestic...

((quincy said "sorry about her", true, but he didn't say anything about a music shop, he thought about musical instruments but never asked her if she knew where one was.))
Wolf... Dog?[/i] Opus walked up to the strange creature, reached up and licked it on the nose. I'm a cat. I've never seen a dog before. Will you be my friend?[/i] She looked up hopefully, wanting to make a first friend besides Quincy.

Sure. I've never made friends with a cat. Most run away from me...I think that's because I'm taller then them. He smiled a dog-smile, open mouthed with tongue lolling out. He looked back the way he came. Oh. I left Diana..She'll be lost without me...Hey, He looked back at the cat. Wanna come meet Diana? Oh, I'm Kuumee, by the way.

Sure![/i] She replied, then glanced at Quincy who was talking with the nice looking girl. I'm gonna go with Kuumee to meet his friend, I'll be back soon![/i] She turned back to Kuumee before Quincy could protest. I'm Opus, like in music. Quincy named me. Is Diana your companion too?[/i]

Yah-huh. What kind of cat are you, anyway? Kuumee walked away from the Jewelry store, waiting for Opus to follow. And what's Opus in music? I don't know much about music. When he was sure Opus could catch up, he started trotting along, walking towards where he left Diana, his leather leash dragging behind him.

Opus leaped a few times towards Kuumee, caught up and followed. I'm the feline kind, silly! But if that's not what you mean, I guess I'm a little big kind. Quincy said my parents were really big like you, but I don't remember them.[/i] She looked sad for a moment, but it passed due to her short attention span as well as making a new friend, and she became happy again. Pieces of music by one composer are given opus numbers, which stand for when it was written, like the first piece written would be opus 1 and the second would be opus 2. Then to break down music more there are numbers, or no., which refer to a specific section of the opus piece. At least, that's what Quincy said.[/b]

Kuumee looked at the cat, surprised she could say so much! Woh. I'm never going to try an understand music again. That's confussing! He shook his head. Really, really weird...I thought music was just the stuff Diana hums when she's not concentrating on anything..

Nope! And it's actually easy after a while, though confuzzling at first. Quincy said he'd teach me to play an instrument sometime![/b] She took a breath in between talking. What's Diana like?[/b]
