A simple enough job for a genin still seeking the coin to buy her own weapon, but one a tad too sensitive to have the ermines of the Northern Winds to help her out. Their mischief and inclination for chaos would not do the chemistry much good, Kurenai already envisioning them trying out a couple of mixtures by themselves to see what effects it'd have. Her mother had once told her Summons weren't really fit for crafting but Rover had tried to persuade her time and again that such was only the case because they were not given the chance. She had merely smiled, not really wishing to try out his suggestions.
So it was that the young Yuki stood at the counter today, serving the customers that wandered in to get a couple of the oddest ingredients. Foul smells, dangerous liquids, weird names. She knew chemistry would not be her thing. Just an on-the-side job until she had gathered enough ryo to get a weapon crafted. A sign of her own maturity, in a way, since she could always use the weapons back home. But a genin had to grow if she was to become a kunoichi of good standing. No idea just yet what to become, her focus fell on improving her techniques and discovering her own limits so she could bypass it.
The discovery of chemistry was... not quite what she had expected. The smell was too much for her sensitive nose, the craft too crude to her liking despite requiring a watchful eye. Another customer would be served by her politeness. Selling wares felt rather nice, speaking to Kurenai's sense of fairness as craft of good quality was passed for an honest price. As far as she knew. The people seemed rather satisfied both with the price and the quality from the way they treated her. Not like Kurenai could do much if the prices weren't accepted anyway.
Then came mister Komura. An old man who would change the rest of her day. The shop owner looked over his glasses as he heard the familiar voice of the man, and took a deep breath as he knew what the presence of this well-known client meant for him. A massive shopping list, requesting more than he could actually carry. The chemist shook his head, forced to leave the request to Kurenai as he was currently in the process of making a new product. Quietly he wished her good luck...
