[Alhaitham, your curiosity...

So mean, Alhaitham expecting the pet shop to be like every other pet shop in existence, full of the natural smell of dander and animals. However, the inside of the shop doesn't even look at all like an office, and it most certainly doesn't look like a shop of pets.

The interior is Eastern, simple and uncluttered, but ornate in the style. The front room is just a foyer of open space. To the right is an open, large circular doorway leading into... a sitting room? From where Alhaitham stands, he can make out a red couch with dark wood framework; a coffee table assorted with trays of food and drink; and, at the back, a table of plants with a single, old-fashioned phone.

Strangely, it does not smell terrible...? In fact, it smells like heady, herbal incense and Old Money.

Someone emerges from behind the edge of the tied back curtain at the circular doorway. It looks at first like a very beautiful woman, but the outfit she is wearing is a man's high-necked and cropped Tang jacket over a long robe and pants. A beautiful man! He looks quite young, but maybe that's because he's so pretty.]


Welcome. [He offers Alhaitham an enigmatic smile, gesturing to the sitting room with a hand of manicured nails.] Come in. I've just finished tea.
