Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bribery Freebies!

As a standard, Thackery had an excess of enthusiasm. When he was actually excited about something, he got worse. So...he might have gone a little overboard.

Unlike a lot of the other candidates, he lacked pins (for now). He had spared no time or expense on what he did have, however. He hadn't slept. He'd spent hours crafting little keepsakes out of cloth and clay. But he was proud, and his classmates would like them, and that meant his classmates would like him. Oh, perfect!

(Thackery will also be displaying propaganda for Erebus' campaign - bros before hos! *note: this does not mean he thinks that the other VP candidates are hos. He's not even actually sure what it means. He just heard it once, somewhere, and knows it has something to do with brothers. And he loves his brothers.)

The eager Cerberus' booth is covered in little bags. In metallic handwritten font, they all urge you to vote for Tack. If you pick one up and unwrap it, you'll find a happy surprise inside.

One is a figurine, made of hard clay with glossy eyes. The eyes stare at you. Constantly. You get the feeling that they're staring at you while you make your voting decision (they are).

One is a fluffy plushie. The stitches are a little loose, and the fabric doesn't match up in places, and the arms are pretty nubby, but...it's kind of cute. Less intimidating, at least.

One is a deformed little figurine, also made of clay. The giant eyes are a little disturbing. You think that it might kill you with cute if you stare at it too long. It reminds you a bit of the Princess Corner.

They're all Thackery-themed, so you can think of him all the time! Just what you always wanted!

Next to the bags is a small stack of t-shirts. They also are very pushy in the "voting for Thackery" department, each meticulously written upon with fabric paint. Upon closer inspection, you realize that they all are cut to display your midriff...hm...

While the sea of students and cluster of booths might have been intimidating to some, Thackery loved it. His tail wagged so vigorously that he frequently knocked over the little bags on his booth - many of them were still overturned, because he was insistent on spending his time more wisely.

Every student - literally every student - that neared his booth was greeted with a "hello" and a friendly wave.

His table was a little less sturdy than the first one he'd picked out (it was missing when he came back with all of this things, which was totally weird, someone must have misplaced it or something), but it was fine nonetheless. Luckily, it was sturdy enough to hold his weight; when there was a lull in activity, he sat on the edge and kicked his feet. Thackery had to keep moving - not only because he was full of excitement, but partially because his sleepless night of crafting might cause him to pass out on the table. And that would not be very appealing to his peers!

While Thackery had been busy waving at someone in the opposite direction, a statue seemed to have appeared. He stared at her after turning around, tilted his head one way, tilted his head the other way, and frowned. That hadn't always been here, right...? Maybe his lack of sleep was getting to him. This wasn't the best of schools in which to hallucinate, after all. If he kept this up, he might think that the Other Bathroom was clean.

He shuddered.

"Well, statue," he began, reaching over to pat her wing. "there sure are tons of students here, huh? I wasn't expecting this many. I guess I haven't really paid much attention. But you must see lots of creatures all of the time!" How silly of him to think otherwise.

His brother too, hadn't slept either.

But for entirely different reasons; Erebus had no idea how or what to do for his campaign. He couldn't even come up with witty lines for pins! He tried consoling himself with the thought that he didn't really mind if he didn't win anyway, it was just that he wanted to do his best since he already put his name down. Moreover, Thackery was in the running too! Being in the Student Council together would be quite fun, and Erebus wished that Arthur would have signed up too.

"Tack, I have a problem." Erebus confessed, sidling up to his brother's booth and giving the statue girl a wave of acknowledgement. "...You don't know how to bake, do you?" Was it really as simple as following a recipe? He worried that his attempt would turn out to be quite horrible, and he didn't have much time anymore. It was the other student at the table that kept him from freaking out on his brother.
