Houston pulled the snake to his chest. "He's pretty, and he's mine. He's going on the ship…please?" He gave Cicada his best puppy dog eyes - which, growing up in Pearl, were pretty good.

Brooke frowned at the sight of the reptiles. Give her a normal house pet any day, but not a reptile…

"No he's not," Cicada responded. His puppy eyes were good, but she was immune, "You can keep the other one, but release the snake. It was probably stolen from it's home anyway."

"I said I want to keep them! Ivory will be very good, I promise. I'll keep her out of trouble - I promise! And skinks don't cause much trouble anyway. You'll barely even notice either of their existence. Please?" Again with the eyes - Houston really wanted these pets. Reptiles were his favorite.

"I said you can keep the skink, but I draw the line at snakes," Cicada responded, "Everyone else only has one animal. You don't get to have two, I'm sorry."

"Ok I'm ok with cats, but snakes are on a whole different level buddy, you don't even have the cage, habitat and room for it and I'm sure that it won't do well on the ship." Zoe reasoned with him.

Houston glared at them each in turn with burning intensity, then went back the way he came to drop off Ivory.
When he was sure no one was looking, he pocketed the little albino, covering the bulge with his belt. He'd told them that they wouldn't notice the snake, and he wouldn't.
He returned with only Olivia visible on his shoulder, and, putting on the wonderful facade of being terribly grumpy, and went with them out of the shop.
(Was that too much? I loooove snakes so I just had to, but I can delete it.)

(Lol your welcome.)

Cicada nodded to Houston and walked back towards the ship, "Let's go. After we get resin."

Brooke followed Cicada. "Yes, Captain!" she exclaimed. Getting her pet had put her in an overly good mood.

"I already got two packages, that'll be able to play some hecka angsty music for weeks. Let's get going, I want to show Olivia and Iv - I mean, Olivia the ship." Houston shook his head, eyes wide.
(I gtg for the night so my characters are suddenly sleep)

Cicada laughed as she continued on to the ship. She said to the others, "We'll be docked here over night."

"Hi" Riseley said, tying their bootlaces, "No one died, eh?"

"Nope. But we got pets!" Brooke declared, nodding down at Onyx.

"Yeah besides that I think we're good." Zoe replied as she fed Clawd some jerky.

"What did you…WHAT THE FUCK A SNAKE!" Riseley edged away from the gang, "No, please don't say he doesn't bite."
(Bye be back in about an hour)

Cicada looked to Houston as she walked aboard, "What no. We didn't buy a snake."

(The snake isn't visible at the moment.)

River came on board with multiple bags

"That's snake! Get it away from me!" Riseley yelled.
(They have a psychic crystal, so does it work this way?)

(Character's will keep them on their person at all times. The crystal allow each person to control said element with a limited amount. So a cloudy clear crystal would allow for minimal air control. However a completely clear crystal would give the user complete air control. In order to use the crystal the user must either infuse it with an item or turn it into powder. The more you use one crystal the worse quality it would have. So you would need to replace it constantly in order to keep up a good quality, hence the importance of keeping the island protect since it essentially 'grows' crystals. So in theory it could work, but I don't recommend doing it :)

Riseley sat in their cabin, sketching pictures of flowers, bored
