"Yeah, I need some lizard food or something. What do lizards eat?" Shelly asked nonchalantly.
"Wait, what!? Lizard food!?" he hissed.
But Shelly just ignored it again. The cashier was really freaked out though.
"Uh, yeah. Lizards tend to eat small rodents like mice and rats, usually live. We have some mice you can buy ... $10 for 4 big ones," she replied while staring wide-eyed at the dragon clutching Shelly's bicep.
"I'm not eating mice!" he spat at her.
"You wanted to be badass, right? What's more badass than killing rodents things and eating them?" she asked.
"I'm not eating mice," he said defiantly.
But Shelly ignored him once again.
"Yeah, I'll take four of those, as well as a cage, food and bedding for them," she said to the cashier. She went to the back room and brought out 4 mice in a little box.
Shelly paid, took the mice and headed towards the door.
