She considered the boy’s question carefully. Her experience with owls was limited to the Hogwarts owls and her brother’s pet. She knew Adam’s owl was fine for international travel. It made the journey to and from France many times, but he had an elf owl, not a fish owl. She would think that fish owls were good for international travel too. If they were allowed at Hogwarts, it stood to reason that they’d be used to deliver mail, and she doubted this shop would sell a kind of owl that wasn’t allowed at Hogwarts. Wait, was that even a thing? She’d never heard a rule that you could only bring certain kinds of owls.

“Sorry, I don’t work here,” she replied with a shrug. “I think they are, but I don’t know for sure. Would you like me to ask a shopkeeper for you?” She needed to find one anyway so she could ask her questions about treats.

“I’m Desiree, by the way. Desiree Marchand. What’s your name?”

Yoji quickly bowed an apology for mistaking her for the shopkeeper. For one she sort of dressed like the part? And second, she was a lot older and much taller than him, automatically assuming she had some authority over the place. To him, at least. "S-sumimasen..." he whispered, then looked back at the owl. It's too bad he didn't have access to owl breed information, but he knew a thing or two based on what his dad said. "A-ano... my touchan... dad said that I can get any breed, except for the smaller ones if I want the owl to deliver long distance," he said, looking at the older girl. "He didn't say international." because long distance could simply mean, the next continent. He needed an owl that could travel all the way to Japan. If possible. Oh, and introductions! Bowing his head, "Nice to meet you, Dezire-senpai." yep, he did butcher her name. English was hard!
