For Cid, the day had started out like any other. Which is to say he'd been splitting his time between keeping an eye on the shop and working on his own personal projects. Even if he didn't have his airship here with him like hell was he going to let the city keep him away from the sky forever. Mind, it hadn't been going particularly well, but that had never stopped Cid before and it sure as hell wasn't going to now.
On the other hand, he was about ready for a break when he spotted someone just sitting on the pavement. Damned strange if you asked him. And that meant he might as well look into into, poking his head out the door of the shop.

Yorda merely looked curiously at the strange, rugged-looking man for a few moments. What was that on his face? The girl stepped forward and reached out a slender hand to touch his cheek and maybe find out what it was. "Who are you?" she asked before gesturing to the building. "What is that place?"
There was a brief moment of stunned silence at the kid reaching up to feel at his face, but after a moment he wrote it off as likely being some... bizarre ritual or something. Still weird as all hell, but he'd gotten pretty damned used to weird over the course of his stay in the city.
There was something on the older man's face that made it... fuzzy. Yorda rubbed Cid's cheek curiously a few times before pulling away, a confused look on her face. She had never seen anything like that before. "What is that?" asked the glowing girl.
"A shop..." Yorda continued, murmuring to herself. SHe looked at the man curiously. "What is a shop?"
Well, now wasn't that just something. He could understand curiosity, but this... hell if he knew the reason for this. At least not without resorting to things that barely made sense and hell if he was gonna deal with that.
"Stubble. Y'know, like you get when you haven't shaved in a while?"
Or well, not, because she wouldn't have had to shave but she had to have had a father, or so Cid was figuring.

"It's a place to buy things."
