For once, Gladice didn't have anythign to do in this festival, and neither did Gaston. It was just something for couple to spend some times together. However, this year the young Zhi would strike again with a new activity! A Bidding war for guys! Well, while Gladice didn't want to get herself a date, especially not that way, since Yoakim had left with Ellie to Niagara's Fall, she had to do all the work around the house by herself. Sure, she loved cooking and cleaning, but she needed someone else to clean the water drain that was still full of dead leaves from the Fall season as well as to shovel her entry way. She was too old to do this. Therefor, she would bid on whomever sounded the strongest and make him do all that work for her! Perhaps also srcub the floors... The living room also needed a paintjob... and the windows on the second story needed to be washed form the outside too... Oh, poor man who was hopping to get himself a date.
----------
Leila, on the other hand, wanted to get herself a date! Preferably a rich date! Or just someone who she could use as a cover. She had hopped use Phil for that, but that little slutty nurse was always keeping him busy, so she had dropped any hopes about using him. Seriously, some people shouldn't be together all the time! How were they expecting her to use them if she couldn't have a moment alone with them! Seriously! Oh well, she would get herself a new fake-love interest from the people she could get. She hoped to get someone rich and dumb enough to use.
-----------
Pretty much in the same train of thoughts as her mother-in-law, Judith would also be bidding on someone. However, unlike Gladice, she wouldn't have an scruples to work him to the bones! She would make him repair everything that needed to be repaired at school, clean everything, scrub everything, paint everything, shovel the school ground, class some files, peel the potatoes and then, if there were still some time left by the end of the day, she would use him as a whipping pole in order to realeve some stress. She would bid for whoever got the less bid on. She wanted some cheap labour, not expensive one. If she wanted some expensive, she would just hire someone, no make a poor fool work for her.
------------
Gladice's grandaughter and Judith's daughter, Alanis, was also there, ready to bid. However, she knew exactly who she would bid for: Gino! She had no idea if he would be participating or what, but it was sure that she wouldn't take any chances! if she heard about someone being Gino, she would bid for him with all the money she had stolen from her mother! And if she would loose the bid... well, at least she would know who had won, and who she had to kill. Love was so simple sometimes.
------------
I walked into the aution house, not knowing what was waiting for me there. it was a dark place and very few people had been there already. I would have never went to someone like that. No, I couldn't say 'Never' because i was there already. I could smell the people around, hiding secrets from everyone, and one of those person had dragged me here tonight. When I had woke up this morning, there was a letter waiting for me... a pink, scented letter. Clearly, some poor damsel in distress needed my help. How could I refuse to help a girl. Women would be my downfall, and I knew it. Yet, here I was, following that letter. Soon enough, that person would make herself known....

Celeste adjusted the strap on her satchel as she walked into the Garden. This definitely wasn't the General Store. She must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. She pulled out the little map Holly had given her and tried to back track to see where she had gone wrong.
Lowering the map a bit, she looked around at the Garden again, noticing that there was obviously something happening today. There seemed to be a good amount of people trickling in and all of them seemingly excited about some activity that would be going on. Maybe this was another one of Nirvani's Festivals? They did seem to have a lot of them. Oh well, she had had fun at the last festival, hmmm she hadn't seen Freddy in a while, and it would be a chance to meet new people. She shrugged, figuring it couldn;t be too bad to hang out for a little bit.
Noticing a sign she wondered over and began reading about the White Day festival that was taking place. Oh, and an auction... Her eyebrows pulled together in her confusion.

 And that was when I saw her. She seemed lost, confused. A little lamb surrounded by big bad wolves. What could that woman be doing here. It was clear that she did not belong. I walked toward her, putting my unlit cigarette on my ear. Pretending to be smoking in front of a woman was a bad move. I had a feeling that she was the one who sent me that letter. She looked young and naive, but I had long learned that no one could trust a woman with red (or orange) hair. Those were always the worst. Plotting, cunning kind. I started to ponder if I shouldn't have stayed in bed this morning. Nothing good could come out of this. When was but a mere foot away from her, I looked her up and down. Something was definitely wrong with her. The hair on the back of my neck were standing up, trying to warn me; I ignored their warning. Women made men crazy, and I was like all the other men. "Hello, miss", I said to her in the nicest voice possible. "You seem to be looking for something, can I help you?" I had the feeling that I was the one she was looking for. How? Call it experience. Even if I was wrong.... everyone was looking for someone. Everyone.

Well, this may be a festival, but it probably wasn't one Celeste needed to be at. It seemed to be a couples kind of thing and she wasn't really a couple. She was a single. SWF living with Ferret. Not a cat. She wasn't crazy.
She shook her head. There was that auction. That might be fun to watch. And the stage for it shouldn't be too hard to find... it was hopefully going to be a big event, and even she couldn't get lost in a crowd right? Right...
The sound of a voice coming from right next to her had her whipping her head around in surprise. "Oh!" She blinked at him a couple of times, uncommonly quiet for herself, after being startled. This town seemed to be full of friendly people, she decided after a moment. A friednly smile lifted the corners of her mouth and she turned to face him polietly. "Erm, hello. Ah, yes." She unspecifically. "I mean, yes I was actually looking for the store but I ended up here instead. However, I think I have decided to stay and check it out. So, I guess I don't need any particular help...unless..." She trailed off realizing she was being rude. "I'm sorry. How rude of me! I'm Celeste, and it's a pleasure to meet you Mr...?" She had extended her hand tilting her head inquiringly.

 She was looking for the store? I knew she was lying right away. The store was far from here; no one could get that lost. She was obviously looking for an excuse to tell him, needed to explain why she was there. I knew that sort. They send you perfumed letter in the middle of the night, and when you follow through, they act as if they had never head of you before. Those women were dangerous. Damn them all. I loved dangerous women. Give a sparkle to your boring life. My life wasn't boring, however. So much mysterious thigns had been happening around me latly. I thought for a moment that maybe, just maybe, she was related to all of that. How? That was a quesion I was planning to answer soon. I would get the answer out of her, or else, I am not called "Robert D. Murrow." Yeah, I had said that last part aloud. What else could I do? I could resist the charm of a woman; I couldn't be rude to a woman. She asked for my name, I just had to answer her. I took her hand, giving it a firm grip with my right one. All while doing that, my left hand went inside my trenchcoat. When it came out, there was that small little card. One of the many I always had on myself. I gave it to Celest... What a name. Celest....Celestial... I knew she wasn't an Angel. No, she was surely a devil in disguised. Nevertheless, that card, was a buiseness card. I always had one with me. You never knew when you can meet a new potential client, or in her casse, one who was looking for an excuse to become one.

She shook his hand, and decided already that she liked him. He hadn't given her one of those lame "lady" handshakes. You know, where the guy just sort of presses your fingers with his? No, he'd given her a real hand shake and that made him okay in her book. Well it would, if she had a book. Actually, she rarely found someone she didn't like. But he was off to a good start atleast.
She took the card from him but didn't read it right away. Instead she drew her eyebrows together in thought. "Murrow, Murrow, Murrow." She said softly to herself. The name sounded really familiar. She was pretty sure she had heard it before, but she had obviously never met him before. She gave him an embrassed little smile. "Your last name sounds very familiar to me but I can't seem to recall why." She shook her head at herself, causing her hair to sway about her head.
She dipped her head to look down at his card which was still in her hand. M&M Investigations, Robert D. Murrow, Private Investigator, The Big Show House, 555-CLUE Hmmm. Private Eye eh? She looked up and there was the sparkle of amusement and real curiosity in her eyes. "You're really a Private Eye? I've only ever seen one of those in the movies. Did you have to go to school for that? Are you from here?" She asked before she thought to filter her questions. She probably seemed very nosey right about now. She hadn't meant to just blurt out her questions, but she found herself incredibly curious about a PI on this little island. Did he really get a lot of work out here?

 ((OOC: Ooupsy! I made a typo, It's the big SHOE house, since it's shaped liek a shoe))
Of course she had heard of me. How else could she had ever sent me that letter if she didn't knew who I was. That woman was some serious trouble, I could smell it. Whatever she wanted with me, couldn't be good. "My brother's a reported" I informed her. Everyone on this island knew of my brother. He was the nosey kind of sort. Also, there being only one newspaper on this island, everyone was bound to have read one of his article once. "You might have read him in the paper." That was all I was going to informed her about Neil. There wasn't any reason as to continue the conversation in that way. I knew that she didn't want to learn about him. She was just trying to make conversation with me, trying to act as if she didn't knew who I was. That was why I was helping the conversation along. Trying to get her to go to the point already. I usually didn't have much patience with males but... female had that air about them. They could keep me busy all day and night if they wanted too.
Ah, there she was. Went to the point. My job. I knew she wanted to hire me for something. Perhaps following a husband, finding proof that he was cheating on her.. No, no... That wasn't right. Why would she go to all that scenario only for that? No, it had to be somethign else, something bigger... Her life was in danger, their lives always were in danger. "Yes, I really am. The best there is." Why bother with false modesty? I knew I was the best at what I do. "I have a 100% success rate. Never failed once." I didn't bother telling her that this percentage was because we only had a single case since opening, us having only open last week. But back in the city, I was still a pretty damn good one. "No, we just moved last week. We needed.... a change of air."

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage, Rachel Fate, & Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It should be a surprise Blaire was at this festival, and even more to find her alone. She was pretty curious about this, and honestly she'd be bored at home wouldn't she? The whole arrangement was just for fun... simple fun.Rachel was another curious presence here, if only because she needed to get out. That and these kinds of fests were always fun. Nothing to lose right?Now Alice... what was she doing here? Curiosity too? Or just plain masochism? One or the other, but she had stated in her mind she was just here to watch. ((Crappy short post >.<))

"You'll be fine. Dont let what a*****e head said to you get to you." Integra said as she came in with Danielle, arm in arm.
Dante was dressed up in drag once more. Something a bit more casual this time. And again he made one hell of a convincing woman. If he ever went on one of those shows where you try to guess if its a man or a woman. Everyone would lose.
Danielle nodded gently and smiled lightly at Integra. It had taken some convincing.. alot of convincing to go out in public again like this. After the night at the Grindhouse, Keith's comments had gotten to the twin. But he couldnt deny the fact that this was who he was. A male in drag, who loved being dominated and also loved fluffy things. Yes well it was odd but everyone has their quirks right?
Integra soon spotted her.. Boss for a day, Madame Alice. She brought Danielle over to the woman and smiled to her. "Hey Madame. Nice seeing you here. How have you been?" Integra asked the one eyed woman gently.

White Day Adventures! ❤ ❤ ❤ (Freddy) (Holly) (Cid) (Paprika) Freddy was hiding once more, from his cousin. He was currently in a tree, watching people through a telescope that he used to try to spot aliens in hopes that they'll take him to their home world, where he could fit in. Nothing depressing or crazy about that at all. He was up on the auction or he helped.. no one even told him what number he was! What if he gets a date with someone like.. like that Judith woman he heard of? Well.. nazi's are rather interesting.. hmm.. but Celeste was here! What if she bid no him?! And won?! And then they go on a date, fall in love, and don't admit it until year 4 or 5, where he drops out of college to come be with her and confesses his love during the moon-viewing festival?!
Then gets rejected, because it took him two years to confess and she found a guy by then. He would probably be unable to go back to college since his parents heard that he dropped out, and be homeless - which isn't that bad now - then have to live with his cousins. Unless they also don't want him there since they don't get along well enough to be on roommate level. So the only option he'll have is suicide by slitting his wrists and drinking enough bleach to clean the ocean! All because Celeste bid on him! ******** that's depressing, made Freddy wish he didn't watch so much Lifetime. At least he doesn't get raped like on the Lifetime movies! (besides by his doctor of course, but who isn't molested by their doctors?) So there's always that to be cheerful about. _______
Holly was sitting on one of the benches of the garden, wiating for the auction. She was ready to bid on a man! Every man! Her parents were dead, she was rich, she was going to do what everyone did after her dad is murdered, and mom is shot by the police. (other than turning to Jesus, but she already did that!) She was going to try to go on actual dates with men, and get married to fill that void leftover by the depression! (really, what else is there to do?) Holly was on some anti-depressants, so she was finally ready - and able - to leave the inn's counter (which she has been sleeping under) by now. She wanted to bid on a man that sounded cute! Yes, a cute innocent one, who's more than willing to wait for marriage before sex. Unless they get her drunk, she would make sure they know this on the first date. _______
Cid heard a poor person was in need of some help, so he made sure to come here as soon as he heard! However they did not need him to save them, or hand over his hard earned money. No, something about.. a bid? He did not fully understand what they told him, he only knew that he had to wait to help this person in need, and was very worried that in the time that he is informed of how he can help, this person might be harmed. So Cid stood there against the walls of the maze, waiting for this 'bidding' to commence. _______
Paprika rather liked the outfit of the substitute teacher, so she decided to come here as her. She wanted to grow out her hair like Habanero's too! So she doesn't have to wear wigs to cover her boyish hair~ She was here to bid! Why else? She wanted herself an actual boyfriend! Who was a boy! With a weewee and everything! A girl can dream~

Celeste tucked a strand of orange hair behind her ear. "A reporter?" She asked in a low voice, though it wasn't really a question. Her eyes got a far away look as she turned her thoughts inward. The reporter comment had struck a memory and she was trying to figure out why. Reporter.
Celeste's eyes widened in recognition and she turned those wide amber/orange eyes back to Robert. "A reporter." It was a statement this time. "He's rather intersting and supposedly charming and irresitable? A very fast talker? That reporter?" She smiled at Robert proud of herself for having figured it out. "Neil right? Then... then Frederick must be your cousin as well!" She smiled wider and looked around unconsciously checking to see if Freddy was around. Would he even come to this type of thing?
She looked back to Robert with slightly more interest now that she had established a sort of connection with him, small though it may be. She listened, obviously impressed with his success rate. It had to be exhilarating to be so good at something. His last statement though was what she focused on. He was new too! They had another thing in common. Though since Freddy was relatively new, it made since that Robert was. Hmmm... Large bachelor pad?
She flipped her hair out of her eyes, her bangs were getting rather long and adjusted the strap of her satchel. "What a coincidence! I'm new as well. Got here almost two weeks ago now and I left for just about the same reason." She looked away, still not used to admiting she had given up, even if her time away was perfectly normal, almost expected.
Then something occured to her and she looked up at Robert, corncern in her eyes. "Oh. I'm not keeping you from anything am I? Are you here for the auction? I'm not making you late am I?" It had occured to her that a nice guy like him would probably be here for the auction. And here being the nitwit that she was, she was probably holding him up and he was just to nice to say so. If so then Freddy had been wrong. Robert was the more charming brother, in a quiet sort of way. She dipped her head and gave him a sheepish look from under her eyelashes. "If you are headed that way... do you think I could tag along? I was heading that way... but I tend to get lost..."

 It was then that I realized just what kind of woman she was. A manipulator. Of course, I knew that every woman was one, that was in their very nature. But this one? Oh, she was good. Very, very good. She could manipulate every other man and women in this town. She was good... I was almost believing her when she said that she didn't knew who I was. For all I knew, she didn't actually want to deal with me, but with my brother. What could she want from me? What could she want for him. This was all confusing, but I will get to the bottom of it. "I do not know about charming and irresistible..." Would my brother be considered charming and irresistible? I do not think so. "As for interesting and talking very fast, yes, that is him.... people in my family do speak fast" Neil...Catrina... Fred... They were all very fast talker. Something that I did no have. I liked to take my time when I spoke. Made them hear every single words that came out of my mouth. "You...know Fred? I haven't seen him in years..." An idea popped into my head. What if I was not the one she was looking for. What if i wasn't my brother either. What if it was our cousin. He was young and reckless. Perhaps he had put himself into some troubles and she was a bounty hunter. This strangely made sense for me. I swore to learn everything I could. Something really was rotten here.
"Do not worry....You aren't keeping me from anything." After all, she was the one who had called me here. Now she wanted to go to the action? Would Fred be in it, perhaps? That would make sense. She hopping that he would identify him for her... I decided to play along. "I was not planning too... but... I'm curious. I'll walk you over there."

Why Usagi was here, well she herself didn't even know. She was actually alone though, something she had tried to avoid since the almost-rape incident. She didn't really plan on bidding, it wasn't like she had any money to anyway, well maybe she did but she was so cheap it was unlikely that she would spend it. She looked around seeing people chatting and some trees. She didn't pay much attention but one tree seemed a bit odd, "Is that a telescope?" she wondered aloud as she stepped closer.
