[RP] Rumor has it that everyone's favorite mall rats have set up a little stand and are giving out free samples of something to passersby. Whatever it is that they're peddling, it's bound to be 101% awesome.
A small stand has been set up aside from the other stores in the mall. Behind it stands a mall rat in a black leather jacket, wearing mirrored shades and displaying every ounce of cool that he can.
Nicky wobbles down from a far off street, her arms flapping about in excitement, "Food food food food!" She crashes down over a curb as she nears the stand, "This a food stand right? Awww....bawwa...so hungry..." She mounts the curb before ploping down on her rear, clucking quietly while she rests.
With an air of coolness to perhaps even rival the mallrats, (without dissing, of course,) the quadruped hyena lopes along, perusing the wares with her keen eyes. Shiny biker leathers, a matching jacket and pants, reinforced with silver rivets, slim her form down and add a feminine air to her, despite her wide, hunched shoulders and her toned, muscular frame.
Kain looks around, window shopping at the moment as shi sees the hen make a somewhat noisy enterence. Curiosity peaked, shi wanders over to the stall that the hen managed to make her way to and investigates the stall. "What exactly ARE you selling here?"
The mall rat behind the stand gives a big double thumbs up to Nicky and Kain and grins. "That's right! The name's Chad! I'm handing out free samples of our new snack food, which is bound to be totally killer when we're done perfecting the recipe!", the rat says, rather enthusiastically. "We grew the main ingredient ourself, if you'll believe that. First homegrown mall rat snacks, woo hoo! Wanna try some of this stuff?"
Nicky perks her head up dumbly at the rat, "Uhh...of course! Wai...wait...a minute...this...I've seen this before...that stuff isn't gonna...do weird stuff to me or something...I mean...it would be obvious if it did...too...obvious." She pulls herself back onto her two talons and struts over to get a better view of the stand and it's so called Mall Rat Snacks, "Baaawww....lets see..."
Smokie swivels her ears around at the echoing sound of 'free samples' and 'snacks'. She licks her lips, and trots toward the stall, whhere folks were already starting to gather. Yes, she beat most of the crowd, too! Yesss! "I heard free, and snacks. Sounds like this is the place to be!"
Chad pulls out a small plastic bag from behind the stand in which appears to be some edibles that look like cookies. He opens the bag and pours a few of them onto a plate. "Here you are! They're made from sugar, flour, some other cool stuff, and our special awesome ingredient." He claps his hands when he sees Smokie approaching. "Ahh, excellent! Another interested patron! Please, take one!"
Nicky goes to peck slightly at the surface of the cookie, "Ya...ya...but whats the special awesome ingredient...bawwwkaaa....don't tell me its secret also...you...possible trickster mall rat guy!" She adopts a pose of distaste, turning her fleathery flank to him, "But....I am hungry..."
Smokie presses her forepaws up onto the stand, and sniffs at the cookies. She gets a sly grin on her face, and winks at Chad. "Special, home-grown ingredient? Might I happen to be familiar with it? I mean, they call me Smokie for a reason..."
Kain looks at the cookies for a moment before picking one up. Looking over it shi doesn't really notice anything out of the ordinary. "Huh, well it can't be any worse than the shit they feed us at Zephyr" shi mutters before tossing it into her mouth and devouring it
"Hey man, it's cool.", Chad replies, not phased at all by the skepticism. "We're not ready to reveal our awesome ingredient yet, but rest assured it's 100% natural, 100% nontoxic, and of course 100% cool. We rats strive for the best!" He nods approvingly when Kain takes a bite and waits a moment before asking, "Well, you like it?", he asks.
Nicky paces restlessly from Kain to the stand, giving each of them equal attention. At seeing Kain eat one of the snacks, she clucks out in suprise, eyes dead set on watching for the reaction, "Oh dear..."
Smokie wags her tail, "Hey, bro, if'n ya'll trust it, I do too." She ever-so-carefully takes a cookie in her teeth, without touching any of the others, and tastes it a bit before tossing it into the air and chomping it in one bite.
Kain munches on the cookie some more before swallowing it and turns to Nicky with a surprised expression on hir face. "You need to try this, it's one of the best things I've ever eaten." tell smokie It's probably the best cookie you've ever tasted. It's chewy but also lightly crispy, sweet and flavorful. There's something that you can't place though.. something.. awesome about it.
"Good, good! Glad you like them!", Chad says, looking quite pleased. With your input, I think we'll be ready to start selling them so--" He pauses for a moment then looks at Kain. "Did your mouth always glow neon blue like that?", he asks. "Rock on!"
Nicky stares to each of them in complete shock, "You two are nuts....baaacawwwwk....nuts! Uhh...uhh..." She eyes her immedient area hesitantly, "Do...need...food though..." He glances back to the plate longingly, just a ounce of resistance holding her back.
The hyena's legs shake as she eats the cookie, then, with eyes halfclosed, she lets her tongue lol out. "Oh dog... I think I just came... Mmm, awesome.." She rests her head a moment, happy, before her eyes dart open and she looks at the Kain beside her. "Woah, glowy? Cool!"
Kain holds a paw up to her mouth and notices the glow Chad mentioned. Attempting to keep it cool, shi looks up at Chad. "That's uh, normal... right?"
The rat whips out a notepad and starts furiously scribbling notes into it. "We haven't seen this reaction before, but then again, you're the first person to test it out besides us rats!" He keeps his eyes locked on Kain for a few moments, gauging her reaction. "And hyenas give a pink glow? Duuuuuuude!", he says, far too enthusiastically when he eyes Smokie.
Nicky pulls her beak back away from the plate in a near instant, propelled by a quick little hop, "See...bawkkk...see! It did do something...umm...weird..."
The hyena's ears sink a little. "Pink? Aww, is it like, at least a rad pink? I mean, not that it's bad. Rrou..."
Kain looks at Nicky and shakes hir head. "Relax, it doesn't hurt or anything. You should totally try it, I wanna see what color your mouth turns." shi says before turning to Smokie and giggling. "You know, this would be pretty fun at something like a rave"
"Dude, that's a killer idea. We could, like, call them rave snacks or something.." He coughs, realizing how uncool that name was then shrugs. "Alright, well I'm not the best at marketing, but we'll work off that idea." He looks up at Micky and smirks. "You gonna try one, kiddo?", he asks.
Nicky's body rumbles physically as her insides turn, the pain in her face evidence for her growing hunger pains, "Damn this straving body.." And without further pestering, she pecks at the cookies until they are throughly crumbled. Taking one last moment to consider the possible outcomes, she takes it in her beak and moistens it until she swollows, "Whoa...baawka...thats...umm..." She remains in stunned silence.
Smokie does her best to cross her eyes to see her pink luminescent tongue hanging out of her mouth, but fails. She's still wagging her tail, though, as she turns her attention back to Nicky. "See? It's... beautiful! Oh man. I just feel so... Dunno, that was a great pickmeup!" She yips happily, a little hyena laugh, "We should totally, like, have a rave..."
Kain nods at Smokie excitedly, hir tail wagging at the idea. "Hey, Chad, got any more of those cookies? I could really go for a bag or two of em"
"Hey man, gotta save some for the other awesome people bound to come 'round!", Chad chuckles to Kain. "But I can spot you all each one more, for sure." He pulls out another bag and dumps three more cookies onto the plate. "Enjoy! And please, tell your chums about me, we wanna get everyone interested!" Almost as an afterthought he adds, "Hey, green for the lovely chicken. Killer."
Nicky clucks quite vocally, and soon finds herself snatching up more of the crumbled cookie bits, "So good! Oh...oh...why did I ever doubt you mystical cookie maker ratman?!" She churrls happily, practically not even hearing the Mall Rat continue.
Smokie yips loudly and jumps at her cookie, snagging it off the plate without hesitation. "Mmf! Fffankff, dude!" She holds the coveted artifact in her maw for a few moments, cutely smiling and wagging her short, bushy tail.
Kain quickly picks up the cookie and throws it into hir mouth, chewing it noisily and smiling at Chad as shi smiles a bright blue smile as she swallows. "Bro, if you sell these you're gonna be stinking rich."
Chad shrugs and gives Nicky another thumbs up. "Hey, doesn't bother me. We might be some awesome dudes, but peeps still gotta have their caution, y'know? How else would we survive, eh?" He claps his hands together and rubs them excitedly. "Duuude. I hadn't any idea you all liked them THAT much. If we can turn a good profit on these, It'll certainly make my research look way rad."
Nicky tilts her head up in confusion, "Research...cluck...cluck...cluck..."She takes a moment to down a few peices of Mall Rat Snack, "Like...mmm...what kind? Flavor research? I think you can write a doctor's writ...or whatever...if these cookies are any evidence."
Smokie thoroughly enjoys her cookie, as she holds it in her paws and lovingly licks it. It's actually kind of suggestive-looking, but the hyena is blissfully unaware of her cookie-fellatio.
Kain licks hir lips and sniffs the plate in an effort to gather any remnants of the cookies before looking back up at Chad and tilting hir head. "Research? What kind of research?"
"Research involving our awesome super ingredient of course!", Chad chuckles. "We didn't just grow it out of nowhere, after all. Took a bit of fandangling. But you'll hear all about that once we release the product officially." He grins at Smokie and adds, "Looks like she realllly likes those cookies."
Nicky nods a few times, and having found her full with the cookies, aimlessly wonders around the area, having muttered something about it being, "Soon." She scratches at a patch of dirt in peace, quite contently too, by her cheerful clucking.
Smokie finally finishes off her cookie, before she finally picks her head up from her now cookie-flavored paw. Her pink glow looks even stronger now, if possible. "Rrou.. Thanks, bro!" She reaches out a paw to Chad, to bropaw.
Chad gives Smokie some broknucks and nods. "Rock on!", he says then gives her a big thumbs up before starting to tidy up his stand.
