 Of course Gaston would be here! It was his own home! He couldn't get away from this like he had with the Tomato festival and Valentine's day, but that didn't mean he wanted to. The man adored things of this nature~! Just think of all the art he could buy to decorate his home even more! Sure, he could probably hire countless artists with bigger names, better designs, and.. well, just the best of the lot, but that wasn't original enough! No, he needed something that no one else would be able to get, and that was from the peasant hands of some nobody artist who would never go anywhere with their art and, thus, could remain a 'Gaston Original'. He just needed to find some soul who was.. decent enough to paint something for him. Which was what this festival was all about! ..That and celebrating the artistic soul or something, but if they wanted to do just that, they could always just have a festival centering around.. Gaston..
His eyes lit up and he sat up in his throne – yes, Gaston had a throne set at the top of his staircase so he could overlook all of the main room and hall. A festival only on him?! That was brilliant! Perfect! Little balloons shaped as his head, selling Gaston-sized phallus statuettes at the entrance, and costumes! Yes, yes, he could have Gaston mascots, like that dreadful Disneyland had! Only better, because they would be HIM and not some smelly old mouse! He grinned excitedly to himself as he thought of this wonderful festivity, Angelina playing on the stairs happily as he waited for people to come so he could play! He hadn't seen anybody new for a long while, not since Zhi had come around.. And the wallaby had disappeared! As well as that fluffy panda! He missed them dearly, but he couldn't complain because daddy never liked it when he complained or pouted!

  Art, art, art! Lovely little art! Alanis was so happy! She had moved to Nirvani right on time for the art festival! Painting, sculpting, Dance, singing, Music! Everything she was good at! Wasn't that just wonderful! She walked into the mansion while skipping and Dancing! Oh yes, she was dancing because she was happy and for once, Gino was not on her mind! Today, she was just perfect little Alanis, not crazy stalker Alanis. Yay! Oh wait... she was.... the first one there? Oh, that didn't mater! She would just have the honour of seeing every artist coming in! She wanted to bring her piano to play some music too but... Piano where kinda heavy.
Art, art, art! Lovely pricey Art! Of course, Leila wouldn't have missed comming to an art festival! This would help her spotting the best kind, the more expencive kind which she would then trick some old fool into buying it for her. If she couldn't get someone to do it, there were always other ways to get it, like she had tricked that stupid little boy and his stupid little super hero team! Ah! They had been such fools. Oh well, not her problems now. She was not the new happy owner of a very rare and precious Gem. Sucks to be them.

Amaya absolutely loved the idea of an arts festival. There was finally a festival that seemed to actually be worth having. Amaya herself wasn't the best visual artist but when it came to the performing arts she could act, sing, play a bit of piano, and dance a bit also. Not to say that she didn't like visual art, she just wasn't very good at it.
Ai had come to the festival with her, a big smile spread across the girl's face. This actually seemed pretty exciting. Though she may not know how to do as much as her older sister was she was a pretty good piano player herself and was learning violin.

 Nanami had been excited about an art festival for a while. She really hadn't any other ways to meet other artists, since they tended to be solitary creatures. Of course, her art wasn't something that she could easily bring to the festival, and she wasn't too thrilled by the feedback she might receive if she set up a booth displaying pictures of her work. She looked around at the mansion as she and Haruka walked in. She wasn't entirely sure what to make of it, but it certainly was... expensive-looking. Anyway, she wasn't there to look at the mansion, she was there to participate in the festival! Nanami was carrying a large black case. She couldn't give tattoos or sell anything, but she could run a face painting booth! The kids deserved to have fun too, right? If there were any there. Haruka followed closely behind her mother, holding a little stack of business cards. This could be good publicity for the tattoo parlor! Artsy types liked tattoos, right? Mei wasn't entirely sure why she was there. She wasn't any fonder of art than the next person, but she had been playing piano all of her life, so maybe she had assumed that it was a mandatory event for everyone who played an instrument or participated in the arts. "For ******** sake, you look fine, Kotone. No one can tell," Shinju sighed as she led her sister into the festival. Both of them had been looking forward to this festival, but this goddamn pregnancy had to get in the way. Kotone shuffled in shyly, pulling the baggy T-shirt down. She was beginning to show, and her clothes were starting to get tight, so she was working from the bottom of her closet. She didn't feel cute at all. She had been expecting to show off her amazing singing and violin skills! But she was too busy trying to hide her stomach to focus on that at the moment.

(Holly Valentine) (Andy Valentine) (Jalapeno Pepper) (Kuan-yin Chao) Of course Gino and Andy would be here, Andy brought her date (Cici of course) since everyone knows that lesbians are very much loved in the art community! Too bad they weren't lesbians of different color... Gino was here wheeling Mandy, since the two couldn't go without him dating someone. Holly was here to be the chaperon, like she told Giovanni.. but really she wanted to possibly spread the word of the comic book her and Andy were making! The story was written and drawn by Holly! She wanted it to turn into something big! Yeaah!! Like that will happen. __________
Mystery Girl X was wandering around awkwardly. Not wanting to be annoying to anyone. Maybe she should have invited Una? Not like Una knew she was MGX, not yet anyway. Oh well, she brought a few instruments to play if she needed, erm, wanted to. __________
Of course Cid was here. No one really knew him or paid much attention to his existence. But he did make a lot of cute hand puppets and toys, all based off the people in Nirvani, which he hoped to give out. After all, unless something completely unexpected happens, Fall would be the last season on this island. He might as well spend it giving people dolls. So he (somehow) managed to get his toys displayed, so that people can take some! He had tons of them too. __________
Jose arrived, in a fancy suit. He was pretending to be a history professor (NOT AN ENGLISH PROFESSOR LIKE NORA KEEPS SAYING!) named Mr. Fenstermacher, while Nora was his Mrs. Fenstermacher. He hoped Nora didn't ******** this up somehow! Either way, it would be fun, they would have witty banter with people and have a jolly good time! __________
And now for the actual celebrities to show up! That's right, the one, the only, the Sex Bullets! The three rockstars were back in town, and figured WHY NOT!? Even though the town hated them for their general shenanigans. Well ******** those guys! Them living here already made this town be on the map! Lesley was with the three, since she was responsible of making sure they don't OD. She wanted to be home. It's not like she had talent, or friends, or a boyfriend! Oh, Mei! No no.. Mei's a big kid! She has to make friends away from her, you can't be so clingy Lesley! that's why no one will have sex with you! Well that and because you're fat! Sure you're only half a pound overweight, but it was showing! Look at your fat a**! go vomit in the bathroom. Lesley's eyes teared up by her own hurtful words, wondering where the nearest bathroom was.

(Mandy) (Nora) (Cici) (Phil) Mandy was very excited to be here with Gino. They were dating now, secretly, although they were also on a fake date...It was very complicated. She pretty much had to act like she didn't want to be here to fool Andy to prevent knife rape, but also seem like she was into Gino so Cici and Andy could continue to be in lesbians with each other, to prevent knife raping. Oh the thing she did to prevent knife rape.Cici was wearing a dress that was most likely more expensive than Andy's house clinging to her arm. The art community were very lesbian friendly! __________
Nora arrived in a fancy dress that seemed like something a kid dressing up as a princess could wear. She was pretending to be an entrepreneur, it was very fun to say and made her feel smarter than Jose! Who was being an English professor, he already had several papers published. She was excited to be playing dressup/acting with Jose again. IT was something she really did miss.
__________
Phil was trailing behind the Sex Bullets in silent awe, he loved them so much! Since he began to live there he had been following and collecting things from them. Which was extremely creepy, but they didn't know! And his collection would soon reach cult stats! He was staying behind with Lesley, not wanting to crowd them, and it seemed like Lelsey needed a friend, and stalking her brother was close enough to a friend!

  Mao had only come here to do two things. Look at art.. and make fun of the wannabe artists' dreams of ever becoming something. Ever since he discovered his inability to draw a straight line back in grade school, the man had become bitter over any capable artist. Musicians, however! He could get along with them! He knew he was better than them all, after all, which made interaction that much easier. Still, even with the fun of silently mocking the crowd, this shouldn't be that fun of a – oh. The man had barely set a step inside the building when a flash of blue dashed by his path. What? He blinked hard for a moment or so, pondering to himself whether a blue.. blob crossing his path should be considered bad or good luck or perhaps some kind of sign.. Perhaps. Blue was the norm for death or mourning – did this mean he would have a death in the near future? Interesting. Though, there wasn't anyone he truly liked enough to care for their death, so he paid little mind to that premonition. It would probably be his great, great grandmother on his mother's side, who, by some odd coincidence, was just having a heart attack over in a Chinese spa while receiving a massage from one of the women working there. The poor girl would lose more than just her home by that coincidence, Mao's mother's family had taken up a lawsuit fad.
But, that was something Mao didn't know. So, instead of pray for his departed family, he turned to see who had crossed his path and why. The thing – or, rather, person – was none other than Kade!
~~
Who had come here just to see Ellie since they were still friends and all! The girl was bound to be here with a painting or two or at least Blaire, who could have finished a composition – she was into music, right? Either way, Kade would be seeing someone! He didn't see either here yet, but what he did see were perhaps the cutest set of little hand puppets ever!! He smiled giddily to himself as he picked up the monk's merchandise, shaking it and looking at it – O-M-G!! Was.. was that a little Yoakim?!
He clasped a hand over his mouth and held back a squeal, “How much?! I want him, I want him, I want him!! Isn't he cute~? Oh, oh, did – um, do you think there's something here that you would recommend for a.. little girl? Like.. um.. Like, somewhere around two years old? My boyfriend – he looks a lot like this,” He held up the little puppet, “is really good friends with.. um..” He looked around the table, spotting a cute little Eleanor toy! Perfect! He picked it up, “Ellie! And Ellie's a mother of a little girl named Rune who's really sweet and stuff, but no daddy – sad, right? Well, I wouldn't want the father around anyway! He's a total jerk – um, don't tell anyone I said this, but it wasn't a.. consensual thing. He should be in jail or something, but I'd still wish he was punished worse! At least Rune is turning out okay with Kim's help! Oh, and I sometimes help too, but the last time I did, they got mad at me about it!” He pouted for a moment before perking back up and setting the toys down. “But, I'm trying to make it up to her, because we're still gonna be really good friends! It's fun to have friends – I've got another really good one named Nora who has a bunny just like me! She looks like – oh! That one!” He giggled and took a little Nora figure. This was getting to be so weirdly coincidental! “She's a magic wizard witch person! She's so nice and fun, and, oh, and, she grows magical vegetables up at the farm!! Cool, right?” Now, to wait for him to answer to all of that! While he waited, since he was used to people being slow when it came to him, he played with the puppets he had in hand. So cute!

 It didn't take long for Leila to notice Phil. Why? Well, he had pink hair for crying out loud! Of course it wouldn't take much for anyone to notice him! She walked toward him, ignoring the stupid looking trio that was in front of him. Like she cared about them. They were probably poor anyway. When she arrived in front of Phil, she put her right hand on her hips and her left one on his chest. "Hey there, sugarplum! I've been waiting forever for your call! And Here I was, thinking that we had such a wonderful date, only to get stood up by you!" She brought her hand back to her own chest, somewhere were her heart should have been, would she had one. Some puppy eyes, a little pout. She still wanted him as her rich boyfriend whom she didn't care about, but had enough money to give her a good time. That, and he looked damn fine in a suit. She would probably be attracted to him, would she had been straight.
Alanis was busy looking at various painting when she noticed the Tamaki Sisters. She remembered Kotone from the first day of school, mostly because of the show her Asian friend had made... and because she had overhead those two boys talking. She walked toward them in all the loveliness she had and waved at them. "Hello! I'm Alanis! How are you? No, Seriously? How are you? I noticed you were school at the other day, and I wanted to check on you." mostly because her being pregnant and dating an asian boy meant that she wasn't a rival for Gino's love!

 _________________________________________________________________________________________ - Eleanor Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, Hayden Rusacanth, Lucas Grey, & Frank S. Grey - _________________________________________________________________________________________ The art festival was here. This was the festival Ellie spent all her free time working on, which was little but still. There were more than enough paintings and sketches considering that. She had set up her booth, with most of the pieces to sell, except one. Out of all the landscapes, surrealism, and just about anything, there was one of the silhouette of a man with a small child, clearly her daughter. The young man, well it didn't take much to guess it was the blacksmith. That was there only for show. Speaking of the toddler, today she was off with her grandparents. It would've been hard enough keeping track off her booth and working on sketches just her alone. Besides, Blaire had her own area to worry about, she couldn't possibly watch Rune. Now she sat, working on another sketch, indecipherable for now.Like her sister, Blaire had been looking forward to this festival. Her composition was finally finished, but it was for a piano, not the cello she brought. If she found one then she'd gladly play it, otherwise she'd work on all those covers for the cello. The teenager adored her instrument, almost as much as the piano. Which was why her cello was so well kept. A black cello, something that contrasted her hair so well. It truly was a sight whenever her head would tilt to cover a chord, and let her hair cover the instrument. The reason why Hayden had been slaving over his sculptures all these weeks was finally here. Technically it was paychecks and devotion but the point was-It was the festival all right? He didn't have as much to show as most booth. Why? Well let Gaston himself bring all his sculptures here! So he only had three, one a much smaller version of an oak, the reason he had gotten arrested sometime back, a couple, and an orchid. Simple yet detailed, small yet beautiful. The traits of Hayden Rusacanth's work. That and an album of his previous works, and some at home were what made up his booth.Lucas on the other hand was here as an art appreciator in way. Just to see what would be here, and to support his best friend. Maybe buy a thing or two if he could. Hey parents away at this festival usually meant some missing funds. But there was beautiful art in the halls! Of course... Kemilly didn't see it that way last time. Oh well. However, Lucas was not alone! He had brought Frank S. with him! What? Blaire would be busy, and he loved to bring his tortoise with him.

(Mandy) (Nora) (Cici) (Phil) Phil smiled at Lelia sheepishly, he had forgotten about her! Moving in with the people he had a borderline obsession with had taken his mind off everything else pretty much else sides being a fangirl over them. He blushed a bit trying to recall her name, which made him feel pretty guilty. Here was a really cute nice girl who seemed to like him and he stood her up! "Oh hello Jasmine!, I'm sorry I didn't call, I erm lost your number" And he had no phone for a while until recently then lost the number.He didn't mean to stand her up! He'd have to make it up to her, he looked back a bit guilty at Lesley, he lived with her now he could make it up to her! Sides they just met and he didn't really want to date her, seeing as how it would he horrible if they broke up! He took Lelias hand and smiled "We can do a make up date? Tonight?" It would end with sex. He could dream.

(Holly Valentine) (Andy Valentine) (Jalapeno Pepper) (Kuan-yin Chao) Lesley had her head down. It's best she found someone to hangout with. There was Phil. He was staying at her house! that means they're basically friends! BEST FRIENDS! By default, roommates are always best friends by default. So /Lesley turned to face Phil and ask him if he wants to go look at a painting with him, just to notice him talking to Leila. Oh.. well.. she couldn't interrupt them! They were destined to be together, that's why they both had pink hair! It had to be faith... So she looked around, who seemed nice? Oh! Some guy had a turtle with him. Anyone who brings a pet to a public area like this has to be a loser like her! So Lesley made her way towards Lucas, and stood a bit near him, saying very quietly, and very quickly. "Hi, I like your turtle." ___________
"Oh, they are no charge." Cid responded to Kade. "However I must ask for you to only take one of each kind, that way everyone has the chance to take one. Unless you plan to give some to friends..." Cid wasn't here to be a salesman! He was here to bring joy in a little boy's heart.. or in this case, Kade. But he was basically a little boy. "I also have fans with similar designs as some hand puppets, and also plush toys." He said as he took out a chibi Kade plush out of his coat. "Oh um, I recognize Ms Nora. She lives in Mr. Jose's farm." After Jack left, and Jose took over, he decided to hire a handywoman and a monk to help him fix the farmhouse so it wasn't falling apart. Of course, Cid barely knew either. He looked over, noticing Jose and Nora dresses up rather fancily. "Them, are they not?" ___________
Andy stood in front of a sculpture, trying to critique it with her girlfriend. "What do you think of this one, honey? I think it's very um.. non-imaginative and promotes communism too much." It was of a bunny. "The communist rabbit of um, the Soviet Union. Yes. Makes sense." Andy was trying to sound like she knew anything about art, but considering that most of her 'art' in her room are figures of sexy chicks from anime, she wasn't very good at this. "I think if we find out that it's by a minority or a um, homosexual, or someone with a tragic past, the sculpture would be lots better."
Gino noticed Alanis, but was unsure wither to talk to her or not.. so he decided against it. "What do you want to look at?" Gino asked Mandy, seeing as he was her method of travel. ___________
"Alright darling, let us mingle with the normal people." For one 'normal' actually meant normal. Jose took out a wine glass and filled with with a wine he somehow had. He would explain where he grabbed them from, but it involved magic, lubrication, and a midget named Larry. So Jose handed Nora a glass too and filled it with wine.. or at least it looked like wine. It was actually grape juice. Wine tasted icky. He then walked over to Shinju. "Why hello there blond girl, admiring the arts or are any of them yours?"

 Shinju had pulled Kotone over to look at paintings; the teenager had been expecting a little more doing and a little less looking, and her sister wasn't going to let her complain all throughout the festival. Kotone crossed her arms and stared straight ahead. She wasn't the type to appreciate paintings or stuff like that. She liked music, and was disappointed that there wasn't more of it. She didn't get to pout for long, because a girl came over. Both sisters turned to look at Alanis as she began talking to Kotone. A girl from school? Shinju was amused; she didn't seem like the type to go to some tiny little school. Kotone was surprised as well; she had spent the entire first day of school thinking about herself (and holed up in the restroom) to pay attention to any of her classmates. "Err, hi." she looked at Alanis oddly. "...'Check up on me'? Why?" Meanwhile, it took Shinju a few moments to realize that someone was talking to her. "Huh, me?" she asked Jose, pointing herself. It was a reflex of hers. She had just come to assume that no one ever talked to her and that she shouldn't respond because she'd just end up looking like an idiot.

  "Jasmine?" She asked him. Just who was Jasmine? Her name was.. Oh right! Jasmine... She had completely forgot about that. That's what you get for using a fake name once and never using it again. You forget you ever used it! "Ah! it is so sweet of you! you remembered my name!" Because if you didn't it would have been a disaster... She grabbed his hand and wrapped her own around it, giggling like the fake stupid straight girl that she was. "I forgive you! Things like that happen all the time! As long as you didn't forgot about me! And yes, let's make today a date-day!" She said, giggle some more. There, if it was a date, being a man he was obligated to buy her something. Something expensive, of course. She wondered if there were any jewelry here... probably not. Some famous piece of art? Maybe! Or even better, a non famous cheap art she could pass for a masterpiece and sell ten time it's worth on the black market! Yes, she could do that! "Let's go look at art then! I like Paintings. What do you like? Oh, I also like you in a suit! You look so good!" That much, at least, was true.
"Well, as future School President, it is my duty to make sure that every student is alright!"And because you'll be the only female friend I'll be willing to make, not being atractive with your fat stomach.. Females were all enemies! That's why she would only bother talking with those who had no chances of being with Gino, or those that she was trying to kill, like Mandy. Seriously, the luck that girl had! She had put cyanide in her glass, only to have Andy knock it over, then she had cut oiled the ramp at school to see her loose control of her chair and hit a tree, but had been kept longer in school with Gino as some random stupid boys fell of the ramp. Next step was pushing down that huge Phallus statue on her! "And... well... you seem nice! And you like art! Or Music! Or something like that, since you are here, and I love those things too! This is why I though it would be nice to speak with you. I love your hair by the way." Always compliment a girl on their hair. This was something she had learned in Emanuele goes Slutty III.

(Mandy) (Nora) (Cici) (Phil) Phil smiled blushing, she actually took his hand instead of being a stupid b***h and going "ewww I don't know what you've done with that!" or "EWW I SAW WHAT YOU WERE DOING WITH THAT" or anything like that! She had a stupid cute giggle too! "Of course I remembered your name! What kind of a guy would I be if I didn't?" Good thing it reminded him of Aldian! So it was easy to remember! Hopefully she didn't want him to buy her something...He would have to spend his food money for the next month! But that wouldn't be too bad, he could eat leftovers! "Ah, I like music mostly. I'm close friends with the band Sex Bullets. Heard of them?" Of course she had. Who hadn't?! He wasn't really close friends...but room mates! That was close enough! "Yes I do look damn good in a suit, no? You look wonderful tonight as well!"
___________
Cici stared at the bunny sculpture and frowned. It didn't look like anything with communism. It just looked like a stupid bunny. She didn't really care about art. But now she was in lesbians with Andy! Lesbians were artsy, right? Of course they were! "Oh, I have to say that it promotes socialism too much...And such...But yes dear, once we find out that it was made by someone of color,it will look much better!" Art sucked. At least no one could say anything about her and Andy holding hands! Even if Daddy seemed to disapprove of it! Cause artists loved dykes.
___________
Mandy looked up at Gino and around at the festival, she went through a stage of pretending to be artsy, but thats all it was, pretending. She got bored with it and just went back to vampires. Gino, who was a now suspected vampire, was probably into art! "I'm not sure anywhere you want to go look at I;m ok with~?" She smiled at him, very pleased that he didn't go say hello to that freak from school.
___________ Nora took the wine glass and followed Jose to Shinju,she was trying to appear half interested and bored. Thats how rich people acted! "Indeed, we addressed you." she said in a drawl, "My name is Mrs. Fenstermacher, and this his my husband, I work as an enterprenur, and my husband is an Enligsh professor, but on our spare time we enjoy to visit quaint little towns for art and such,"
