*As morning dawns the caravan is stopping. They're stopped at a town and will start setting up to show their wares. Hamish eyes Connor has he's pulled out and bound to the side of the wagon to show, nothing he things very obviously missing... he'll remain /close/... he'll have to if he's to sell Connor...*

Connor: *his nano-droids worked all night - the tears in his mesh have been repaired, the Thirium that was spilled (what didn't evaporate first) recovered and returned into his circulation lines, his shell and skin back in place - there's no telling he was ever injured. He looks around now, trying to spot Taren*

*He'll spot the amin hanging heavily from another wagon, it's clear he's in lots of pain and not doing too well. He's glowering at anyone that comes near. It won't take long for people to start coming by, and that's when Hamish will really start trying to sell Connor. He calls Connor a Throog, a species from the tip of the southern empire, very rare. He'll point out the clear differences between Connor and humans, and making up all kinds of bull shit about the Throog to impress people, even going so far as to slice across Connor's chest to let people see his blue blood and the way he "heals" so quickly.*

Connor: *frowns, looking at Hamish like he's lost his mind . . . but since he's disallowed from explaining what he is, he can't really argue either. He hates to admit it, but...it's kind of brilliant, what Hamish is doing. Anyone who looks even halfway interested in buying him, he'll /loudly/ insist that he can't go without his amin companion, that he cannot properly function with the amin's unique understanding of him. He's not bothering to try to /not/ get sold - in fact, he'll kinda help. He blocked from resisting these guys, so the only way he can get away is to /be/ sold.*

*Hamish will insist that no one is required to purchase the amin if they wish to only purchase the Throog... A week will pass, the caravan moving farther and farther from the Lavair manor. And then to give Connor a moment of panic, he’ll realize that while Hamish is trying to sell Connor to one fellow, a noblewoman has purchased Taren. A female cheetah-amin will support Taren, moving him towards a wagon.*
