 Gaston had come in that day to watch the workers toil away at the town square, preparing it for the dance they were to have until close to midnight. A dance is Spring was, of course, necessary to every small down! Sure, it had originally been here for some kind of odd religious purposes he had yet to look into – a goddess? What were these people smoking? - but that didn't mean he had to let the townsfolk decorate. This was his town and he would have it the way he wanted! So, a renaissance theme it was. Flags of several colors, all complimenting well with the soon to be night sky, the lights delicate, iron lanterns, with even a maypole here and there. Those were all renaissance-y things, right? Well, it didn't matter whether he had it right or not, all Gaston had picked was things that he thought looked pretty. A table was set up to the far end with carefully prepared snacks and drinks for the commoners, while a large, ornate chair at the foot of the festival was prepared especially for himself. Next to it was a small copy of said chair, where his ward, Angelina, sat looking pretty. Well, it was either the child or the panda and.. considering that poor Florence had a stomachache, he kept that creature at home.

 Yoakim entered the festival with his grandmother. Both of them not really wanting to be there that night, albeit for different reason. Yoakim was in his usual sour moon borderline of boredom. He had only accepted to come because Kade had been pestering him about coming since the last year. It was only when he realised that Kade didn’t seem to know that both of them wouldn’t be able to be elected Harvest Kings that he finally said yes. Seeing the look on Kade’s face when he too would come to that realisation was well worth it. Furthermore… He might just be lucky enough to see Ellie. He wasn’t sure if the girl would be there that night, however. She was busy as ever with her studies and with Rune. He went into a corner and sat down against a tree that was so decorated, that it would have put a Christmas tree to shame. He had said he would come, not that he would meddle with the other town people.
Gladice, on the other hand, didn’t want to come because she just knew that Gaston would have ruined everything. This was supposed to be a festival praising the Harvest Goddess, not some kind of medieval fair, or whatever he was trying to do. When she was a young girl, the Town Square would have been decorated with flowers and the most colourful lanterns would have been placed everywhere. Now, it was just… Just.. Erhg. Yeah. That. Whatever it meant. That foolish fool with his foolishly foolish foolishness! The only reason why she wasn’t slamming her cane on his head multiple times until he got a concussion was because he was still technically and legally the mayor. She moved toward the table where food was being served and made herself a glass of punch, making sure to smell it first to be sure there wasn’t any kind of alcohol in it. With that man, you never knew!
On the other side of the town square, a dark figure was half hiding itself behind a tree, observing the scene. He was waiting… waiting for his moment. The moment where he could make his grand entrance. Now was too soon. Not nearly enough people. It would just be boring and his master plan would be over way too soon. He had to wait. Wait for a crowd. Only then would he be able to get what he really wanted, more than anything else in the world! A little squeaky noise made itself hear from under his hat. ”Not Now, Mister BoJangle. Not now… Soon. Just wait my dear. Just… wait…”

- - - -Bored out of his mind, Angelina sat compliantly in the chair his new daddy had for him. He never thought chairs much of a gift, not like candy or toys. Chairs were for old ladies, his grammys always liked getting new stuff like that. He'd have to teach his new daddy what a present is! And if being told to sit in this chair wasn't bad enough, his new daddy had one of the ladies put more of that stuff on his face! Oh how it itched. He hated that white and pink powder! But, his grammys taught him better then to complain! So, smile drawn to hide the pout, he kicked his feet freely into the air, swinging them about as he hummed to himself a tune. He could see all the people from this seat, at least. So if any kids came, he could ask if he could go play! Or even - a grammy!
Far off to the table where the food was, he saw a grammy! Oh she was just like his old grammys! Pugdy, wrinkly, and he bet she smelled like food too! Oh but if he wanted to say hi, he'd have to find her a flower. His grammys always loved flowers! He glanced at his papa. He still looked so big and scary, but that must be good for scaring away beasts like Skosgras! “Fader, I want a flower.”

Nanami was startled to see the change in decoration to say the least. She had been expecting something a little less... theme-y? Haruka had refused to come because of what had happened at the Cooking Festival, and it was good that she had, because she wouldn't have appreciated the change in decor one bit. Yuuto was a little surprised, too, but seeing as he hadn't lived in the village since he was a kid, this could have just been the way they did things. He couldn't really remember many of the festivals anyway. But the look on his sister's face told him that this was not usual... Mei was quite excited about this one, as it sounded very quaint and lovely... Small town, you know? They never would have anything like this back in her enormous university. Sure, the decorations were a little tacky and over the top, but who was she to judge? Shinju had always been a fan of kitsch, and so she couldn't help but grin when she walked into the square. It was pretty, sure, but some taste was definitely sacrificed in the process. Kotone followed behind, her arms firmly crossed and a dark frown plastered on her face. She had been through the roof to hear about the Harvest Goddess competition, but her fantasies were soon killed when she discovered she was too young to participate. She was still looking forward to seeing who did win, so she could prepare in the next two years, but she wasn't going to let Shinju know that. Shinju had little tolerance for Kotone's temper, so she left her little sister to sulk by herself and wandered over to the food.

❤ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [ Mystery Girl X ] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❤ Cid felt a little insulted, religious wise, when he saw the decorations, but still... he was here to meet people and have fun, not get offended! The young monk was considering entering to win king, especially since the last contest involved a cash prize, and to be titled king of this island would be great! He could build a temple like the one at home, and bring all of his monk friends back home! And make this island for the best! (he has no idea that it's not a literal title)
But when he heard that there would be a queen too... well he made an oath that prevents him from marriage! He can't enter if it involves marrying a woman to rule this place! (he has no idea that it's only a title for both) If he wanted to marry a woman, he would go up to Romane and ask for her hand in marriage, not do this! (he has no idea that you have to date for a long time before going into marriage) So in the end, he not only didn't enter, but now just walks around the area looking for the lady police officer to try to spend time with. _____
Ginger as casually walking around, looking at the odd and tacky decorations. She was here early, and left the store to Paprika like she does whenever there's a festival. She left early because of how annoying Paprika was being! She wanted to come along, but if Ginger let her, who would run the shop? No one that's who! It's not like Paprika can stay out of trouble in these things either. Then she goes off saying how she's 'so depressed and lonely' and how she 'just wants to be around people' and how she's been having 'suicidal thoughts' oh please, like Ginger would believe that. Paprika was just such an attention whore, she should stop having feelings!
Maybe if she had less feelings, she would have friends! (probably didn't help that she said that to her) Ah well, Paprika will get over it, she wasn't going to let it ruin her fun. _____
Holly came here with her father, the two were... well dressed just as tacky as the place was themed. They heard the theme, and just had to dress up! Thomas was wearing something that Shakespeare would wear! While Holly was dressed in a less-than-modest fashion for the time period it was said to be. She wore a renaissance dress, that had the front a bit too low, showing her cleavage and almost showing a bit too much of her breasts! As if her shirt would rip apart even!
Andy and Victoria didn't come with them, Andy figured there would be too many germs, and Victoria said she didn't want to be embarrassed by Holly and Thomas' themed costumes. _____
Mackenzie, Mary, and Mark from the Sex Bullets were all there, neither of which looked like they belonged. They heard it was going to be themed after a time period, so they dressed up in Star Trek uniforms (the future is a time period, right?) So they all looked very silly. It didn't help that the three were only staring at a wall. They all took a bit too much LSD, and were currently hallucinating. _____
Mystery Girl X was there once more, to enter to win as Harvest Goddess! She just HAD to be Harvest Goddess! It would basically be a popularity contest right?! Maybe everyone knows her by now after the cooking contest! Yes, she has to win, she just has to! It will be like winning Homecoming Queen and Prom Queen TWICE!! Actually... she would be really happy if someone would vote for her just once, maybe it meant someone at least noticed her right...? Why wouldn't someone? She won the cooking contest, that gets you noticed... right?
Unlike her usual black kimono, she was wearing a nice pink kimono, and bright red lipstick. She also had a flower on her hair, on the opposite side of her mask. It was a bright red rose; one of the best ones they had in the shop, so try to make her look prettier. It had to work, she wanted to win whatever the costs! Maybe she should have put less bandages on her breasts to make them look more their original size, instead of making her look like she has very small ones... that's what people like about her right? Her chest?

It only took Gladice a moment before she reconized her. That pale carnation, that kimono, that mask! It was Mistery Girl X! Her favourite contestant from the cooking festival! She had spent the week looking around town to find someone who could have been her, yet, hadn't meet a single one. She had a small suspicion on the Inn Keeper's daughter... util she notice her screaming murder after a drop of blood from a steak at fallen ten meters from her... Yeah, it couldn't be her.
She walked toward the mysterious girl. She had her usual warm smile on her face but it was a little bigger than usual. She was just that happy to see her! "Excuse me, young miss? You are the Mystery Girl X from the cooking festival last week, aren't you? Oh, I am so delighted to see you here! I didn't have time to tell you then, but you were my absolute favourite contestant! Oh, that appetizer you made? It was heavenly! You just have to give me the recipe!"

Kathie skipped into town square giddily, her hair kept simple and tame, but still just as soft and sleek as usual! She did know her way around a bathroom, after all! A nice dress fashioned from the same people that did her usual shirts and coats, light makeup with the most noticeable enhancement being a slight sheen of gloss across pink lips. Her boots went up to her knees, the leg shone waxed accordingly, of course, and the nails (perfectly manicured and well maintained) were polished in deep blue. Indeed, Kade didn't make a beautiful, elegant sort of girl, but he certainly made a cute one! He probably would have done better to simply put on a cheerleader uniform, but he had grown out of that old thing, like, years ago.
He glanced around the festival, frowning at the decorations but not really thinking much of it. They were so, like, tacky, but every prom that Kade had gone to was like that, so.. He couldn't bring himself to mind it. Instead, he simply pinpointed his main squeeze and trotted over to Kim, all brooding alone in the corner. “Hello, grumpy bear! Guess who? Knock knock!” He giggled as he mixed that line up, forgetting to even cover his eyes, but, well, he was wearing something different anyway. Basically like covering Kim's eyes!
~~~
Gaston raised an eyebrow as his ward spoke up in that sweet, cute Swedish accent of his. So light, so airy, so bouncy! It was positively adorable! Which would later develop into elegance as she grew up! The instructors that had been teaching little Angelina how to walk and dance like a proper young lady could only shower the girl with praise. Though, admittedly, she hadn't passed the first lesson just yet.. It was why Gaston was conflicted on letting her run about on her own. He sent a look at the officers, who he had told both to watch over his little angel the most in case someone tried to snatch her away, before making a decision.
“Of course, angel. Why don't you go skip along to the garden and choose out a flower?” He said with a wave of the hand, leaning back in his chair and continuing to watch the festival. He would have joined the King nominees, but, then, it wouldn't be fair to the rest of the men! ..And Gladice had had him unwittingly sign a paper stating the mayor couldn't join. He really should read some of the documents he was handed.. or have a servant do that much.
~~~
Romane stood at the east of the festival as usual, changing position every few minutes or so to keep a good eye on her area, while also keeping watch on her partner's area as well. Rachel may end up being too busy dancing or whatever this festivity was intended to entertain the citizens with. The woman had struck her as that type, even with a clean record on her. Good officers could be slackers, she knew that much, and with all the work Romane was doing, it certainly looked like that was what Rachel was! Never mind that the redhead hadn't allowed her the chance to take over with half the tasks Romane took while they waited on a new sheriff to be decided. She met the eyes of the mayor as he glanced at them and gave him a nod to show she still recalled his request. She hadn't expected the man to adopt a child, but it wasn't her issue.
Watching Angelina was, along with the rest of the civilians. Though, her mind wasn't completely on that. She still had those fans in her second holster, having kept them there to ponder over the last week. The cooking festival.. She hadn't come to an answer as to who sent that letter, but she hadn't received anything else or heard of another receiving odd notes. She should let it be, but at the same time.. It was rather hard for her to let go something like this. It was almost as if she had failed her work by not figuring it out.

Ethan & Noelle"DUUUUDE. You're entering this contest, whether you like it or not." Ethan said, basically pushing Noelle to the town square. "D-don't you... care a-about my feelings o-o-or something?" Noelle frowned deeply, crossing her arms. She knew she would have to, because if she didn't, Ethan would let go of her and stand right next to her, making no noise. She hated it when he did that, it isn't nice to prank your blind sister.
"Nope, don't care at all. This'll give you some confidence. And you'll meet more people!" A firm push and they were at the registration table. After Ethan wrote his sister's name, he patted her on the shoulder while she wallowed in the embarrassment that was sure to come.

- - - With permission, Angelina leaped from his seat, turning on heel to smile at his daddy. “Tack så mycket, fader!”( “Thank you very much, father!” ) He wasn't to speak in his root language, but Angelina was too hyper at being released from his imprisonment to the chair! So many people were coming, and he really wanted to play – and say hi to the grammy. Grammys were always nice people. Feet alight with a child's naive joy, Angelina was weaving through people in no time to where he saw the pretty garden of flowers on the way in.
His wide blue eyes soon caught sight of the flowers so neatly planted. They were very pretty. The reds, oranges, yellows, blues – oh so many colors. Their petals were set aglow against the lanterns dangling above, creating the luminosity of many beautiful lights hovering so faintly above. His daddy was good at making things pretty! Nearing the plants, he peered among each one, looking for the most perfect flower of them all. They were all lovely, all would have made his grammy happy. She used to plant flowers in pots on their windows and around the house. Well, his grammy liked red, so maybe red would make this grammy happy too! Stepping atop of the plants so weakly giving away to his weight in the crunching of stem Angelina didn't give mind to, he reached for the biggest red flower he saw.
Little hands clutched to it just bellow the blossom of red, he gave a yank, ripping the roots to leave a mess of dirt and scraggly little roots at the base of stem. The loose bits of dirt fell away onto his dress, only to worsen into smears of brown when Angelina wiped it off. It looked fine to Angelina, his new daddy wouldn't notice. Nodding at his work, he wiped his shoes on the cement to remove most of the mud that had latched to them, and made his way back to where he last saw the grammy. She was talking to another lady now who looked rather silly, but it would be rude to make fun of how silly she looked.
A tug of the elder's dress, and Angelina was standing with round eyes turned upward, awaiting for her attention. He grinned with an excitement that shone through pinked cheeks, his little flower held above his head so she'd be super surprised when she saw it. “Grammy!”

 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eleanor Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, Rune Vatonage, Hayden Rusacanth, Rachel Fate, Sophia Fate, & Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Goddess Festival. She only came over here to watch. Though hadn't she won one year? Blaire didn't let Ellie forget that, especially this year when the young mother was told she NEEDED to be this year. If anything to get her out of the house. She was actually getting a bit tired of hearing that. Now Blaire had left her alone... The girl even took Rune this time! The young mother sighed and decided to walk around, with luck maybe find someone here. True enough she saw Yoakim with-Who was that? Well blue hair meant only one thing! So Ellie headed over to the two.Up and down, twirl~ That was basically what Blaire did with little Rune as they walked. Sure Blaire was the babysitter more than she should, but she loved her niece. And well, Ellie needed a break. Besides, she couldn't take part in this festival because she was too young, go figure. The teenager picked up a giggling Rune and kept walking around, stopping at one of the decorations Rune was reaching out for... It wasn't vandalism so...This time it wasn't for food, but for fun, that Hayden came here. He figured this festival would be enjoyable enough. That might be his 'lover side' speaking, but it didn't matter. It was also good for inspiration. What with the beautiful ladies of this island and all. Or perhaps a charming flower? Who knew? All that was sure was that Hayden was here. Of course.Rachel had to sigh really. She had gotten the initial workload once the sheriff was... fired, but Romane made sure to take most of the work. THAT was really bothering the officer. She wasn't sure what was her partner's deal, but the term 'partner' was somewhat unknown to Romane apparently. Rachel didn't want to pull rank on her... but it seemed that was what it would come to if her partner didn't stop for-did Romane even breathe? A mystery to the world she was sure. The husky besides her was busy sniffing around as she always was. Sophia was still young, so energy was plenty... as she proved by pouncing at every bug that was nearby as Rachel kept her own watch on the festival. While internally fuming.Well it seemed like fun, so Alice figured to join in. The woman truly was stunning, too bad she wasn't participating. Nah, she'd be watching and lingering around. Alice was past being the center of attention, that was years ago. She left that behind. Besides, she was loving this peaceful life, even if her work was never peaceful. Controversy anyone? But wasn't that her? Hm. Well the brunette lit up a cigar as she thought on that. Could she smoke here? No clue...(( Harvest King: Hayden Rusacanth, Harvest Goddess: Eleanor Vatonage))

 Yoakim had been busy daydreaming about his work. What could he do next? A Really sturdy hammer? Yeah, right. That was boring. Instead, he would make jewelries with a pretty stone! Maybe an Amethyst necklace. He didn't do one of those yet? Oh... but.. But the store really hadn't any place left for a single jewelry more... maybe... he should give it to someone! He didn't really know who... or why he would give it. Sure, Kade and Ellie were obvious choice but they had enough already. It should really give some to someone else..
It was then that a usual high pitched voice made it appearance. Yoakim rolled his eyes before sighing and turning his head to see.... a girl? With blue hair.. and... Oh God no. "Ka...Kade? For God sake... What are you doing in drag? I though you only did that for special shows and stuff?" He asked the boy. They already had tht discussion when they had first meet. Yoakim didn't mind that Kade dressed up as girl, as long as it wasn't always, not when they were on a date or forced the blacksmith to do so... However, didn't that night counted as a date?
-------------------
Gladice stopped her speech to the mysterious girl when something, or rather, someone pulled on her dress. She turned around to see what that was. And what was that? Oh! It was a pretty... and very dirty... little girl! But, a little girl with a flower nevertheless! "Why, hello there sweety! What a beautiful flower you have there. Is it for me?" It looked like it. Why else would she be holding the flower like that? With all the roots showing... and dirt falling.. Had she just riped it off a nearby garden or something? She was quite the tomboy, isn't she...

  Well, Kim was right. Kade had made a deal to.. not dress up on dates or anything with him, keep that hobby for himself.. But. Today was a special occasion! He frowned and jutted out his lower lip as Yoakim didn't seem as happy to see him as Kade was to see the other. “Well, you know how, like, there can only be.. one Harvest King? I thought it was so totally unromantic for us to be competing because, um, right, it'd just be not fun? Plus, imagine how cool it would be! Kathie and Yoakim, forever! It's like marriage! Only better, because I'm a Goddess and your a King! Oh my god, do you think they have a horse? We can ride a horse out of the festival once we win! It would be sooo wonderful! Right? Right!” He giggled, cheered back up in his chatter as he remembered what was so perfect about this situation. It was like if they were dating in high school! Didn't the prom king and queen always stay together forever? Plus, it was such a romantic memory – who knew when they would get this chance again?! Kade had been trying for, like, two years to get Kim to join in with him! Of course he wouldn't let this opportunity just pass on by!
He glanced back at the slowly growing crowd then towards Yoakim again. He leaned up, pecked him on the cheek, and waved his hand at him, “Okay, bye, thanks, I'm gonna go wrestle me some votes! I didn't get the third tuba into the top three just by standing around, after all!” He informed him confidently and headed back into the crowd in his usual, bouncy manner. That last bit he doubted Kim would understand, but Kade remembered that day well! Middle school, school band, that girl was such a scary anti-social! It was so hard to get her to get even one vote, let alone the three hundred and twenty eight he had scored! Now, for himself? In a cute little town like this? Easy! Who to talk to first..? First should be friends. Yoakim knew he was running and Gladice was town representative, she should know too, right? So, two votes secured! Onto - “ELLIE!” He squealed out as, with a few steps moving away from Kim, he saw the girl heading towards them. He caught her halfway to where Kim stood and hugged her, one leg going up automatically as he stood. “Guess who? You know who! It's me, Kade! Don't I look cute? Have you seen me dressed up before..? I dunno, I can hardly remember.”

This festival happened to be one of the rare moments that Conor left on his own. Well, aside from the teens work, but even then.. Keith was usually inside the inn room during the morning shift and Conor often left to hang around the club while Keith was working. So, really, the boys were always within a vicinity of each other. Now, however, Conor had chosen to go to the festival alone, mainly because Keith didn't feel like it and Conor figured free food and drinks was more than enough reason to come.. Plus. There was some kinda of popularity contest or whatever. He figured he may as well join in on the off chance he'd get a prize for it or some s**t. Though, he honestly didn't think he'd win. Not that Conor wasn't ******** awesome, but it was hard to find someone else who understood that or was willing it admit it. He took a quick look around the festival, but nothing was re- holy ********, was that Blaire?! Blaire with tits was hanging with some little kid.. oh, ********. It was her kid, wasn't it? Conor had seen her with the kid before, but – she got pregnant?! He raised an eyebrow and watched her for a moment before going into the crowd. He sure as hell wasn't gonna get involved in that.. Besides, Keith was right – they were here to avoid people they knew. So, off to the punch bowl with him!

 Yoakim was about to reply something to Kade but all that came out of his mouth was some sort of mumbling. He was still struck with the fact that Kade was dressed as a girl and wanted to win the Goddess Title. Was that even allowed? Well, if it wasn’t Gladice would have told him off or something (something being her cane on his head, of course). He just had to make a huge sigh and slam his forehead into his palm as he slowly shakes his head from left to right. He knew that there was nothing he could do about it. Kade was just being Kade. He should have grown accustomed to his antics by now. Still… that was part of his charms, no? At least that’s what Yoakim tried to convinced himself in order to not go crazy in those last two years.
He was about to leave for somewhere else that would have been more quieter. He didn’t care about mingling with people or be crowned or anything. He just wanted to relax in a corner while looking at people acting like people would act. Yeah, that was his voyeur side that was showing, but he liked to do that. However, the moment he stood up, he noticed (well, heard Kade scream) Ellie. His heart made a jump in his chest, like everytime he saw her unexpected. What else, she was alone! He walked close to them and smiled. ”Hello Ellie… You’re alone?” He asked her. It was rare enough to see her out of the house, yet without Rune. Maybe she had been able to bribe her sister into babysitting the little girl? Then, something came to his attention. Should he really speak with her? With Kade just next to them? Maybe the boy would get a hint… nah, he was way too oblivious to everything surrounding him not notice Kade’s feeling for Ellie… But… Ah, damn, that whole situation was confusing.
”Are you two thirsty? I’m thirsty. I’ll got get us something to drink. Be back in an hour.” He then gave a quick peck on Kade’s cheek and left. Why had he done that? He had no idea. He wasn’t the kind to dwell into public display of affection, not to randomly bable about being thirsty, and even less saying he would be back in an house, when the table with the punch was only fifthly steps from them. But whatever. This was confusing. He needed his goddamn drink.

How many people were at the festival now? He quickly counted them them. One, two, three, five, ten, seventeen, at least twenty! That was like over nine thousand for a journalist! That was perfect! Ideal! Great! Wonderful! Marvellous! Amazing! Spectacular! And all those other synonyms he didn’t think about! But first… he needed a vitim! And his first victim would be… HER! HIM! OH GOD NOT MACKENZIE! Last time he had tried to interview the Bullets… well, let’s say that he still have a few buises and a huge burned mark on his right leg. He had to pick someone else.. There, that girl over there seemed good. He walked toward the older Pepper Sister, taking his note book out, his pencil form his ear and the biggest grin possible (and some more) on his face.
”Why! Hell, hello! How are you on this fine evening ma’am? Beautiful night isn’t it? Can I bother you for a moment? Yes, yes? Yes! Perfect! I love when people like you let me bother them or at least don’t think fast enough to say no! People who say no are so unconsiderate don’t you think? But you are so nice just standing there and staring at me like I’m the most awesome and totally wonder man on earth! Really, you shouldn’t ma’am! I’m not worth it. I am merly a lowly journalist trying to do his job! Oh yes! I should introduce myself! I am Neil G. Murrow, Editor-in-Chief of the Nirvani Post! Our very own newspaper on this Island! Are you reading it? You should really! Women like tend to be bug fans of Rhea’s column. Oh! What am I saying! Look at me, look at me! I’m just babbling like a fool not going to the point! Because, YES! There IS a point! And that point is YOU! What is you name? What are you doing here tonight? Why are you here tonight? Do you appreciate the festival? What do you think this festival is all about ? How did you hear about it? Is it your first time at this festival? If yes, why didn’t you come before? Are you new? Are you tourist? Just visiting or living here? Mmm? What is your work? Do you have a family? Are you single? In a relationship? What is your facebook status? I saw you looking at that female inspector earlier. Why did you do that? Do you have something to hide? Did you comit a crime? Are you afraid to be arrested? Are you in love with her? Are you a lesbian ma’am? How is the life of a lesbian on this island? Did you come here because you were persecuted in your old life? Did you come here to find a soul mate? Do you think you’ll find her one day? Yes, yes? Mhmm mhmm? “

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eleanor Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, & Rune Vatonage__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ O-kay... Who was-Oh wait wait... Ellie didn't have to think twice on who was just hugging her. She had to smile, it was nice to see the guy so hyper. Granted he was always like that but-Well it was nice. "I think I have... at least once?" She had... but it still caught her off-guard. Even if she had gotten used to the Kade/Yoakim relationship. What? It wasn't her fault she was so sheltered growing up. Ellie was just about to say something to Yoakim when he just... left? Well at least she managed to nod at his first question. "Kade... I'm running out of air" said the young mother after a moment. He was still hugging her after all.After a bit of Rune trying to get the decoration... and to both their misfortune it was a bit too far. Well... Blaire was kind of hungry, so she set Rune down for a moment, to get a better look around. Of course, the infant took this chance to get away, and so she did. It didn't take long for Blaire to realize Rune had run off... but it took her a bit to catch up. Where had the two year old run off to? Well she apparently was thirsty, because the table with the pretty drinks was where she was at. "Rune! You're not supposed to make me run after you!" chuckled the teenager as she caught up. Next to a certain kid, who she had yet to recognize.
