Starter for @hydrangea-duo

It’s another quiet and not particularly busy day at the shop. Kids and adults stop by to buy something from time to time, but everything is calm enough to render today boring. Oshare stands behind the counter as always, reading a book just out of anyone’s sight to pass the time as he has already both cleaned and reorganized a couple of times while customers were absent.

He keeps thinking about that absolutely rude demon...man? (the body is young but the soul isn’t so what does he call him?) from the other day. Can’t help but grin at the memory of Ayashii quickly retreating while saying something about Schezo.

Oshare doesn’t know the said Schezo, but what he does know is that the line was incredibly cheesy if you interpreted it a certain way.

He’s focused deeply on the passage about the prince confessing his love to a young lady when he hears the door open and catches a sign of red from the corner of his eye. He quickly closes the novel and looks up only to see...

The demon.

Serph stares at the stranger with a hungry look in his eye. Internally he struggled to keep himself under control, arguing that he couldn’t eat them despite his body practically screaming at him to devour the ‘prey’.

As the bells hanging above the door rang, signalling someone’s presence. The merchant’s attention would shift away from the book they held in their hands. Focusing it solely on this customer, atleast he hoped it was.

“Oh, welcome.” The male greeted before asking their purpose here. “What can I do for you?”
