Frost Bites

Welcome to Frost Bites

Cold air rushes around your paws as your step into the quaint shop, where Savannah plains and trumpets of nearby elephants used to be became snow and ice under your paws, cold to the touch and wind whistling hollowly around you as it carries snowflakes into your fur. You could've sworn you were just in the heart of the Savannah with the warm golden sun on your back and not in the middle of the tundra. Strange. Though the smell of fresh prey draws you closer and you can't help but be lured forward only to find a lion littered in rosettes laying down and licking at her icy paws. No words are said as she finally meets your gaze and hrusts a paw forward to smack an old human radio with one of her feet.⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ "Welcome to Frost Bites! Your friendly neighborhood branch for all your prey needs. Located directly in the ice you'd think it's odd when you approach to find ice in the savannah but fear not, the ice helps keeps your afternoon lunch fresh. We offer a variety of food here paw-procured by our very own lionesses who take only the best and freshest meals to serve our customers. Feel free to look around, and don't mind our observant Queen, she's just there to make sure the inventory is fresh. If you're in need of some serious grub you might be interested in our trades where we offer 100 uses of food for 1000 SB or 1GB." ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ Suddenly the voice over the box crackles and fizzles out, much like a disk that's been on repeat starting to die and static begins to fill the air. Annoyance flashes in the Queen's eyes as she gets to her paws and stands up, towering over the little human toy. She's much bigger than you realized- much bigger. Her paws are bigger than dinner plates, pelt covered in white patches ans bright spots of color, not to mention the rosettes decorating her pelt. She still doesn't talk, or really acknowledge you for that matter, and whacks the human object once good with her paw. It rings for a bit before it churns to life again as she lays down back in her spot, a little cub coming from just around the corner who looks like a miniature version of her with a collar titled 'CHONK' Apedemak only knows what that could mean. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The device finally stops buzzing and skipping to continue its monologue, "H-H-Here are Frost Bites we also offer Price Insurance against a competitive market.
