Re: 1x1 Roleplay Art_Dancer and Tigermeow

"Um, hello." Ikgrir said nervously to the man, "I, uh, I saw you were hiring." He glanced back at the sign hanging on the door. This man definitely seemed kinder than the Blacksmith, but kindness in no way meant for sure he'd get a job. He just had to try his best to impress this man, even with his limited amount of skills.

"Oh good," he told them cheerfully, "it seems I haven't been getting much luck with people applying for the job, but that doesn't mean I will just give it to you without knowing anything about you. Do you have any previous experience working for a bakery?" He asked and I slowly moved closer to the bread in case he couldn't get the job and I had to steal it.

[Tigme]

"I, uh, I have had some experience baking in the past." Ikgrir said. He answered. He has hung around the kitchen in the castle before, watching the cooks do their job. Although he had rarely ever cooked himself, he had been very observant with their actions. Plus, he knew himself he was pretty good at following instructions and that was similar to following a recipe.

"Okay, there is a sink in the kitchen back there for you to wash your hands. I don't know if you have time, but maybe you could come back, I could give you a recipe, and you could try to bake something? If you need to go, then we can schedule it for another time," he spoke to us.

Ikgrir glanced back at Eris. She wouldn't have to stay by his side the entire time, "N-no, now is fine." he turned back to the Baker. He wasn't entirely sure how long this would take, but if Eris needed to go for her own interview, they could simply meet back up later.

[art_dancer]

I still had some time before my interview, but if it took too long, then I could always leave for my interview and come back after. "Great, right this way," he tells Ikgrir. "Your friend will have to wait out here, and tell her to keep her hands off the food. I see her trying to steal some of my bread. Your business doesn't last this long by not knowing how to spot theives."

[Tigme]

Ikgrir looked back at Eris, glaring. He hadn't noticed she was trying to steal the bread. She had promised, but that was probably why she hadn't told him what he was going to do. He turned back around, and followed the man, "I-I'm sorry, I didn't think she would try something like that." He hoped she wouldn't try stealing it while he was in the back, it wouldn't look too good for the either of them.

[art_dancer]

I look away as Ikgrir glares at me, feeling guilty about it, which was rare. I never felt bad about stealing, but for some reason Ikgrir's dissapointment with me actually made me feel like I didn't want to steal. Weird. Maybe it was just because I didn't want to ruin his chance at a job since he already failed at getting one. Yes, that must be it.

"It's alright, I understand what it's like to not have much," the baker said, not mad with him. He guided Ikgrir towards the kitchen, simply asking out of curiousity, "so how did you two end up together anyways? It's not very often that you see a dragon with a human." Pausing once they arrived, he walked over to a shelf, grabbing a book from it. "I assume you can read, since you said you have some experience, correct?"

[Tigme]

"Well, uh..." Ikgrir wasn't sure what to say, "It's, it's a long story." he explained. He watched carefully as the Baker took down the book, and nodded at his question, "Yes, I do know how to read." there was at least something useful that he knew, "What is it you want me to try and make?"

[art_dancer]

"I see, I was just curious as my wife isn't human like me," he said, mistaking their friendship for something more. "She's a nymph, you know, creatures often found in the forest, able to control nature with their powers, it's pretty amazing when you see it." As he asks what he's making, the baker opens up the page and hands Ikgrir the book. "A simple pastry just so I can see your skill level. I didn't catch your name, I'm Aaron."
