Are
The furious little creature, as strangely adorable as it was, still had Are keeping his fingers well behind the counter. No need to get gnawed on over a few pelts. He even started to consider how to best distract the trouble maker, maybe with a scrap piece of tasty leather could had done the trick. Thankfully the time to enact any hastily put together plan never came as the pink menace calmed down after a stern talking to.
Focus quickly changed to more familiar matters as he followed Phoebe's gaze down at the boots that was in dire need of some looking after. "Lasted." Are remarked, trying to hide his disdain for the new-fangled cordwaining he'd become increasingly familiar with. Stiff, heavy, and remarkably laborious to work with, it wasn't with a smile on his face he got stuck in fixing lasted shoes and boots, but it was worth it for the experience alone.
Begrudgingly his look switched from conservative to craftsman, pondering the amount of work it would take, but stopping himself before he got too far ahead of things. "Not my usual thing, but I'm a cobbler first after all. It could take a while, but not more than a day or two, depending on the damage." he said and stroked his chin, already summing up the hours and materials needed to at least form a tentative grasp on the cost.
