[It makes it even more suspicious, frankly. Korra eyeballs the small print before gesturing for Ket to put the bottle back.]

I guess it doesn't matter if they didn't harm anyone for it. [Instead, Korra plucks something else off the cart with curiosity. Might as well busy herself while Naga's bonding with her new friend, right?] "Sea Tears"? Is that just some fancy name for sea water?

[failsaver]

Guess so. [ He shrugs, still fluffing Naga's fur. ] Aren't tears just salty water? [ Nodding at the bottle in Korra's hand, he grins. ]

Try it if you like! First bottle's free. Actually – everything is. For today, everything's free. [ Is his dog bias showing yet? ] Choose anything you want!

[braavado]

[Korra puts it back, laughing. Yep, it's definitely showing.]

Really? You sure that's good for business, Mr. Vendor? [And cue the realization that she still doesn't know his name.] You know what you should give me? How about a name so I don't have to make up something to call you?

[failsaver]

[ He laughs with. ]

Ket. Ket Whiss. Just Ket's fine, no 'sir' needed. [ You know, he's not going to stop petting Naga unless she walks away. ]

I can make up lost credits in ViViD, no big. [ Said cheerfully. It's not false modesty; he genuinely doesn't mind. ]

[braavado]

[Though her laugh peters off, she's still smiling at him, head tilted slightly.]

Nice of you to offer, Ket. [Meanwhile, Naga's just soaking up the attention, even giving Ket a friendly lick right to the face.] Maybe I should bring Naga around here more since you guys are getting along so well.

[failsaver]

Mmmmmph! [ Sorry Korra, it's a little hard to talk when you're being licked in the face. Ket's still laughing, though, clearly undeterred. ]

Yeah! Yeah, you should. I'd like that. [ His wallet won't, but not everyone can be a winner. ]

[braavado]

[Thankfully for his wallet, Korra's come a long way from her first day in Republic City and expecting everything to be free. Her smile turns a bit more contemplative.]

Oh, trust me, I will. But first, you can tell me how much the chestnuts are.

[Despite her teasing, she really doesn't expect him to cater to her and Naga.]
