Description:

Ruby and Rat leave the apartment, and she shows him where she buried the chest. They dig it up and begin to walking towards their preferred fence, who works in a place near the docks called “Hoof Full of Bits”.
 
They walk in the door and a bell rings, causing the shopkeeper to sit up to see who entered.
 
“Whaddya want Rat?” The shopkeeper says gruffly. He’s an old stallion with a body type very close to Sleepy’s except for the graying mane and bit sign as a cutie mark. He is bigger however and it’s clear that at one point in his life he was probably quite strong, as he still carries some of that muscle on him.
 
“I got some stuff I’d like to pawn, Filthy.” Rat says, plopping the chest onto the desk confidently.
 
“That’s Mr. Lucre to you.” Lucre says, screwing his eye around a Jeweler’s loupe and opening the chest. As he examiens the items he says, “This is nice stuff. Too nice. You know how hard it’s going to be to fence? It’s too unique. Too identifiable. That’ll cost you.”
 
“Don’t cheat me, Lucre.” Rat says, leaning over the table.
 
Ruby wanders around the pawn shop as they barter. It has some neat stuff in it. Lot’s and lot’s of old tools, porcelain figures, furniture, musical instruments, some sort of weapon that Ruby has only seen goat’s carry around, and of course, jewelry.
 
“2k for the lot, and that’s my final offer.” Lucre says with his gravelly voice.
 
“Fine.” Rat says, shaking the old stallions hand.
 
Lucre does not of course have that much money in store, and so for the moment gives him 200 bits, and tells him to come back later for the rest.
 
Ruby asks what he’s going to do with his cut.
 
“Same thing I always do.” is all Rat says, “I see you’ve already spent some of yours though.”
 
He then taps Ruby’s earring, and then says, “That’ll come out of your cut . Here, take this and be happy I gave you anything at all. Now beat it.”
 
Rat then hands her 30 bits and walks off.
