[the warp band video is as grainy and black and white as always. When it comes on, it's pointed toward the kitchen table. Laid out on the table are feathers. Three of them are about three feet long, and another four are between a foot and six inches. Even without color, it's possible to tell that these aren't just any ordinary feathers. These feathers seem to be made of gleaming metal, the individual barbs at the base coalescing into solid steel just a few inches higher.

Then, Eren speaks
]

Hey. I'm finally done molting, so I have a new crop of feathers to sell or trade. Molting sucks. But at least I can make some money off of it. I used two of them to make new swords for myself, and then payment for the blacksmith, and then a few weren't really high enough quality to be used…

uh. Oh! If you don't know, Skarmory feathers make some of the best swords ever. They're light and just flexible enough to not break, and they hold an edge like no one's business. [Eren turns the warp band to himself, and he draws one of his swords. It only vaguely resembles the feathers on the table] You just have to take them to one of the blacksmiths in town and you can get whatever kind of hilt you want on it. The smaller feathers make good knives and stuff.

Anyway, prices are negotiable, but don't expect to get these cheap. They're worth a lot more than you'd think, but I'd figure I'd try and sell them over the warp bands first. I know there's lots of Guards and Rangers and [he makes a small gagging noise] Swords check the warp network a lot. [pause] Even if you don't need a blade, they make good gifts.

For someone who's selling materials for swords you sound like you have a Swords problem.

...How many knife-sized feathers do you have, and how much each? Or better, what's something you'd estimate to be of equal worth?

[Isn't that something bird Pokemon do? Yeah.. this guy must be a shifter -- which would explain the feet.] They do? What price are we talkin'?

I'm a swordsmen myself. [-Hi. One of Cress's Pokemon glare from behind him.

His Honedge simply loves diving into the teen's video calls to stare at people, watching Eren from behind Cress.]

[.....


Bertholdt hasn't talked to Eren in a while but things seemed to have blown over. The taller boy doesn't forgive him but considering they will be on the same team soon.. it's best to keep his enemy's close..... for now.]
I hope the molting process fares you better next time..

So you're basically just covered in swords all the time? That's pretty crazy.

Sure, I'll buy one. One of the big ones! They look cooler than the one I have now, anyway.

[Asch will be so jealous. Luke doesn't even look concerned about the price.]

[...Damn, those actually look kind of good. And he could use a weapon. He's virtually got nothing.

But ugh, money matters :x But he has been good lately with saving. Man, this is a really good way to make money. Guess being a shifter isn't all bad.]


...By chance you got any small ones left?

... I'm gonna guess they fall firm in "not gonna afford them" unless you want three pounds of candy.
