"oh that sounds cute. We can have a picture of a bee on it too. I love it Penny" Casey and Penny start unpacking as soon as they got to the house. They didn't bring much but they did bring the necessities. Casey works diligently on the sign before hanging it above the door. Hanging thinks is easy when one is able to fly. Let's just hope that her future clients aren't allergic to bees.

It wouldn’t be long now. The twin gnomes, Lula and Tanzu, would be in the city of Isra proper and hopefully reunited with their friends; Quelci, Ershadt, and Lumpy. Upstanding Citizens all. The twins pulled with them a small, wooden, single-axel cart. The cart was full of random wares and different trinkets which rattled quietly under a thick gray blanket as the brother and sister pulled the cart along together, each holding their own handle as they walked.
Just off the road, Tanzu and Lula spotted a small brick building with a sign hung over the door. Tanzu stopped pulling the cart, and his walking pace slowed.
“Hey!” Lula said, looking at him in marked annoyance as her part of the load became heavier, and her brother’s slowing pace made him more of an obstacle than help. “Am I going to have to pull this great bloody wagon all the way to Isra by myself?” It was only then that Lula looked up to see what had caught Tanzu’s attention. A tailor shop.
“A tailor!” Tanzu exclaimed. “We need a coat!”
Lula looked at him strangely. It was a little chilly, sure, but nothing the clothes they had couldn’t protect them from. “We already have coats! And even if we didn’t, what good would a coat do? There’s two of us!”
Tanzu’s eyes narrowed as he looked at his sister. “The bigfolk in Isra hate us in case you’ve forgotten! We need one coat, so the two of us can look like one bigfolk, instead of two gnomes. They’ll be looking out for gnomes!”
“Fine fine! We’ll get a coat.” Lula said, and helped her brother pull the cart up to the brick building. “And a dress!”
“We’re not getting a dress!” Tanzu said quickly.
“I want a dress! I haven’t had a new dress in ages!” Lula complained. “And the first chance I see to get one, we’re taking!”
“We don’t have money for a coat and a dress!” Tanzu quipped.
“You be quiet and let me handle this!” Lula said. “And anyway we’re about to be rich! We’ve got a whole wagon full of crap to sell to the bigfolk.”
The gnomes bickered back and forth as they parked the cart near the building, and went in. Lula went in first.
“Hello?” she asked, looking around as she poked her head in the door. The furnishings might have been a little sparse, but the place definitely had to be open for business.

Casey heard the ringing of the bell as the front door opened. Luckily Casey was able to get the shop portion of the house set up and ready for business. The shop had enough fabrics for at most 6 pieces of clothing.
"hi welcome." Casey created them a low buzz can be heard coming from the large flying bee that is approximately 1ft in size height wise and 2ft lengthwise from wing to wing. "what can we do for you?" Casey couldn't believe there would be business this fast. Casey is not very familiar with all the rules in Isra so this bee is not aware of the no gnome policy of Isra.

Penny worked diligently upstairs on a new pattern she had been itching to try out for a suit/jacket combo. She hummed as she worked, her many legs making the tedious stitching much quicker than if a human were to do it.

“Bees!”
“Bees?”
“Bees!”
“BEES!”
A chorus of fear and confusion emitted from the twin gnomes as Lula entered, and then Tanzu poked his head through the door.
“Our weapons are useless against them and they’re sting crazy!” Tanzu whispered to his sister in front of him, frightened.
“We don’t have any weapons!” Lulu turned to whisper back.
“.. There’s a pair of scissors in the cart.” Tanzu whispered.
“Well if they’re useless we won’t need them, will we?” Lula’s eyes narrowed at her brother.
“Hello!” Tanzu’s demeanor switched from frightened whispering to his sister to overly friendly as he pushed open the door, and stepped through passed his sister. “My name is Tanzu, and this is my sister Lula, and we need a uhh.. A present! For our uncle, who is a bigfolk. We think a coat would be great!”
“And a pretty dress!” Lula interrupted behind him.
“A dress for our uncle?” Tanzu asked, obviously unhappy with the idea of a dress.
“Maybe our uncle is a cross-dresser. Maybe our uncle likes Pretty Dresses.” Lula said, emphasizing the last two words of her sentence. This idea wasn't going away.
“Alright!” Tanzu relented. “A bigfolk sized dress, for our uncle.. Please.. Mister.. Er.. Misses? Bee. Shopkeeper.”
Tanzu wasn’t crazy about the dress idea because he knew it was he that would have to be the legs every time they used the disguise. At least with a coat they could take turns.

Casey chuckles at their request. "please just call me Casey all that misses and mister junk confuses me. My associate Penny and I will get started on this coat of yours. Is there a specific color or material you'd like the coat to be made of? The soonest a large coat and dress would be ready would be later this evening." The bee buzzes going over to a sketchbook out on a nearby table and starts sketching a few ideas. One idea being a winter fur coat, another a large tailored formal suit coat, and the last being a trench coat type of style.

Another huge bee! The twin gnomes had spent the bulk of their life in the relatively ‘normal’ patch of forest that the rest of their clan of gnomes called home, and while there were certainly a number of magical oddities in their forest, there were no giant bees.
“Ahem. Mis.. Casey. Bee. You see, my sister and I only have about enough money for one present for our uncle. So just the pretty dress will do nicely, I think. A pretty dress.. For our bigfolk uncle..” Tanzu glared at Lula, still obviously unhappy with getting a dress instead of a coat for the two of them.
“Our uncle likes pretty dresses!” Lula insisted again. “And I suppose we only have enough money for just the dress, yes, but we brought a whole wagon-full of priceless treasures! We’re heading to Isra proper now to sell them. Maybe you bees would be interested in some of our wares in exchange for the coat too! Then our uncle could have a pretty dress and a coat. What-a-ya say bees? We have our wagon parked right outside!”
“No!” Tanzu objected, almost interrupting his sister. “Er.. I mean.. Those priceless treasures are for a specific collector! We’ve already promised our priceless treasures to them. Remember? There’s no reason for these wonderful bees to search through our priceless treasures if we can’t trade them for another present. Our uncle will just have to be happy with what we can afford! A dress.”
Tanzu continued to glare at Lula. He didn’t want anyone to search through their wagon, not for any reason.

"oh of course. Now tell me about this dress. What size is your uncle and what type of dress were you all looking for? Something casual during the summer or maybe something formal for colder days?" Casey buzzes flipping to a new page and sketching a few dresses. "when I first heard of Isra it was like a dream and I knew it would be the perfect place to open up a shop. It seems I was right as you two have decided to come in looking for clothes"

Penny buzzed up behind Casey and examined the gnomes. "Wow!" She said. "Two customers!" She spun excitedly. "You said you need a dress?"
