Azrael just sort of smiled. "Welll... yes, I would like it," the small blueblood replied with a shrug, he fully intended to experiment on the thing when he got back to his hive. It probably would have been better if Miache had taken the thing and released it into the wild. "Unless it possibly might lay eggs," Azrael said in agreement, "The last thing anyone needs is tiny spiders crawling into their hive looking for a place to live, I mean they can get into some terrible places on their own," As though he'd had any experience with spiders. He did better with things that had wings and feathers like Scarfettle. The small blueblood broke into a broad, toothy smile. This was the best thing ever, he was so glad he'd come to this after all.
"Alright, well it could be worse you know... I mean, it could have laid eggs in the box and them all hatch on you, that probably would have been an incredible sight to see... though I think that's pretty impossible," Azrael laughed at the idea and let his eyes wander around the area and ah-- he'd left the polkadotted package by the table. "Mia?" Azrael brought his attention back to the troll, "I take it that's short for something," Why would he only give part of a name? Mia... hmmm, was he trying to hide something? The tiny troll looked Miache over curiosly, trying to find any sign that would tell him anything. But then the young blueblood glanced back at the polkadot package. "I'll... be right back," He said before quickly dashing to pick it up before it got crushed, even more than it already was and returning to Mia. "I, uh, didn't want this to get crushed, I apologise."

Miache shrugged simply."My lusus gave me a rather hard to pronouce name, it's far easier to shorten it than have to enunciate properly," he said simply. Which.....was true. Seeing it written most couldn't pronouce it, of course....hearing it, it was rather simple. It certainly didn't hurt that the first half of his name was easily mispelled as Maya or a similar varrient. If anyone was looking for his name it wouldn't be an easy one to find. Certainly didn't help that most wouldn't recognize him, he wasn't the most social of trolls.
He pulled a grimmace at the suggestion, his hands back up at his chest as if to push the spider further. "Please, don't even suggest something so.......foul." It was times like that he'd found that he blacked out. There'd been a couple instances that had.....ended poorly for the mysophobic troll. He watched the younger blueblood scurry off and return with his own box, Miache smiled faintly. "My apologies, I didn't mean to distract you from opening your own gift."

"Well, no-" He couldn't serve something he didn't know to paying customers! A small start-up business could not survive any bad reviews getting around while he looked to expand! Amonee was probably just making small talk but Nucleo balked at the very idea! But just as quickly as his friend had mentioned it, they were onto the next topic.
"Oh, um. Do you like candles?" He couldn't think of many things his jadeblood friend would use the matches for but maybe some nice candles for mood lighting. It was a stretch but almost plausible. He had no idea what to say for the toothpicks.
"H-hey!" The greenblood laughed as Amonee dragged him off again! At least this time they weren't diving under a table. Smiling as the boy looked to see what Amonee had wanted to do, the boy froze. He was happy to see Caiden looking better than a few minutes ago but then right next to him was her... She smiled at the others and started to open her gift to reveal a beautiful potted moon lily, placed in a mason jar. She'd gotten his. What were the chances? She looked so surprised but happy that he felt his lung begin to fill with pride. But then he remembered the troubled expression she'd made before when he'd been a complete idiot. Maybe he shouldn't tell her it was from him. Maybe he should apologize first. Why what a great idea Nucleo! Sarcasm ringing in his thinkpan, the boy resolved himself and made eye contact with the yellowblood.
"It's pretty. It really suits you." Giving her a quiet smile, the boy nodded his head. Then he nodded his head to the side to gesture to a part of the room less crowded. "Um, could I talk to you for a second? I'll be quick."
"I wanted to apologize for before. I messed up your name." Once they'd moved, he jumped straight into things, not wanting to take up too much of her time. She had many guests to thank for coming still. But he couldn't just walk off without straightening this out first. Who knew when he'd next run into her? Sure he knew she worked at this salon, thanks to this event, but it would be creepy and stalkerish to loiter around to try and catch her. That would just make things worse. Though getting her name wrong twice already was already pretty bad. Good job clones, thanks for the help. Ughhhh.
"I'm sorry, Elidae." He said with a breath, to reassure her that he did know her name. It was a pretty name that also suited her perfectly. He almost dared to say this out loud but he was already skating on thin ice. Nucleo kept his eyes on her to gauge her reaction and completely failed to notice there was a reason why this area of the room had stayed empty...

"Wooow, that's really pretty. You're so lucky, Elidae." The cute yellowblood girl unpacked her gift to end up with a dazzling display of bell-like flowers in a jar. They looked incredibly beautiful and Amonee was certain they smelled sweet as well. If the cozy delicious smell of Caiden's pie wasn't nearby, the flowers probably would've filled the room.
Nucleo shifted uncomfortably before shyly tugging Elidae aside to discuss something and the jadeblood's eyes watched them wander off curiously. He couldn't help it! The painter was a nosy gossip at his core and his favorite stories to follow were the ones that involved his close friends. With the bug fiasco taken care of, there wasn't much other entertainment anyways. Amonee couldn't hear what Nucleo was saying in quiet sheepish tones but it didn't matter.
He'd just noticed something completely incredible.
"My goodness, you're under the mistlefrond!" A hand slipped up to cover his surprised mouth but it didn't muffle his announcement much. The barista had led the hostess directly under the greenery up above and little white berries peeked out like stars. He nudged Caiden next to him to look at the scene as well and let out a twinkling laugh of festive cheer.
"Go on, you two! It's tradition you know~ Kiss her!" Oh, he couldn't wait for a romance of his own someday! For now though, he was content with egging on his greenblooded friend on a fun night they would never forget.

"I see, Mia it is then," Azrael nodded as though content with the answer, "I'm sure I could give it a try though, but maybe another time," Well at least he would try and perfect the pronunciation if he could. Azrael couldn't help but let out a snicker at Miache's expense, "You really don't like this stuff... well I think there are worse things, but I'll keep those to myself," he adjusted the box under his arm and nodded to Miache. "I actually need to find my friend and give her something, If you'd like to come along you may, but if not then we should part ways here," with a brief but sincere smile Azrael turned from the other troll and scanned for the friend in question. He wanted to give Elidae her gift before she was swarmed again, why did she have to be so popular with literally everyone?
Soon he locked on target and, lucky enough, there was Amonee too! Sweet Amonee. He hadn't had a chance to speak with the greenblood at the jubilee or really... at all, maybe he could stop a moment and chat, he didn't seem to be doing anything but staring anyway. With all the stealth he could muster Azrael crept behind the greenblood until he was just behind him and close enough that he could probably have put his head on Amonee's shoulder if he chose to. "Hey Amonee, what's going on?" He finally asked, part of him hoped for a startled reaction of some kind.

He smiled and nodded. If there was a next time. If Miache went through with his plans with staying in the swamp he might have even less reason to be in town. A bit of a shame though, he enjoyed the shopping trips for new clothing. While he usually only wore the suit he certainly enjoyed chances like while in disguise to don another outfit. "No, I can't say I take kindly to the thought of any form of.....contamination," he added, wrinkling his sniff node in distaste. "I make it a habit to protect myself when possibly." Again his gloved hands came up, but this time to show how perfectly clean and white the fabric was. Not a speck on them.
When the younger blueblood walked away he paused thoughtful. With a simple shrug he smiled faintly and followed after him, glancing curiously at the small jadeblood he greeted.

Completely clueless, Elidae had followed Nucleo willingly, curious as to what he had to say. He seemed quite serious, making her feel a little uneasy. What was so important to say to her that it had to be in private? When they finally were alone, he went straight to the point. Elidae blinked, surprised. All negative feelings vanquished by his apology alone, she smiled when he used her actual name, relieved.
"Oh! N-n-n-no! It's okay! Really!" She reassured him, then waved her hands dismissively. "I'm sure you didn't, um, you didn't mean anything by it. It happe-"
"My goodness, you're under the mistlefrond!"
Mistlefrond. Elidae was cut off mid-sentence, her whole body paralyzed as she stared. Almost robotic, she lifted her chin to look up the classic decoration for the holiday, hung directly above her and Nucleo. She pursed her lips. Of course. Elidae remembered earlier in the evening before everyone arrived when she her very self hung up the darn thing, giggling madly at the idea of unfortunate souls ending up ensnared underneath for a good laugh and perhaps to push a little romance. It just happened to be her. And Nucleo. Nucleo and her. Casting her gaze down, she looked to the greenblood, wide-eyed.
"I-I-I-I- umm...!" Her eyes darted from Nucleo to the other children, to others in the room who were watching from the sidelines, then back to Nucleo. Of course, the boy's face was as bright green as hers was yellow, both flustered by the sudden situation. Trying to calm herself down, Elidae attempted to rationalize, even if her bloodpusher was pounding in her chest from apprehension. Mistletoe was just a little gimmick during the holidays for fun. Just a simple kiss; couldn't hurt right? Except... Elidae had never been kissed before. This was a brand new experience and it just so happened to be because of a silly holiday tradition. In front of everyone. Not exactly romantic. But it wasn't like he wasn't cute or anything, right? Nucleo was cute! She was a little older, but maybe if he grew a few inches...? But what if he didn't want to? What if he didn't like her that way and this was just a huge awkward mishap? Regardless, she composed herself well enough to pull herself out of her thoughts and back into the room. She could play it off... right? Just for fun?
"Well. You know..." She finally said, flourishing from motionless to flirtatious. Looking away with a coy grin, she shrugging her shoulders lightheartedly to try to make light of the circumstances. "It is tradition!" Leaning down slightly with her hands folded neatly in front of her, the yellowblood tilted her head and fluttered her eyes closed, lips puckered in waiting. After a split second, she cracked an eye with a raised brow, the hint of a playful smile threatening to break her ready-to-be-kissed face. She then situated herself back into position, leaving the next course of action in the greenblooded boy's hands. She figured she would give him the choice: flee if he desired or steal her first kiss.

Crappucino!
Nucleo stared up at the mistlefrond hanging above them with panic. When had that gotten there? His face burned bright green as he imagined the various ways this moment could end. He could kiss her and she might like it. Or she might hate him since what was he doing kissing her after getting her name wrong twice already? Or he could kiss her and then Frossa might see and pick on Elidae just to ******** with him. Or he could not kiss her and she'd feel embarrassed that a troll wouldn't want to. Or be relieved because she secretly couldn't stand him. Honestly, while he'd wanted to talk to Elidae more, he couldn't deny that they actually didn't know each other very well yet.
'But...' Those black lips drew him in. She smelled so sweet and looked like she'd be soft to reach out and touch. He really shouldn't do this. There were plenty of reasons to not.
But he wanted to.
"Oh!" Her expression changed and she'd leaned forward for him, causing Nucleo's veins to burn hotter. He was just a kid so he didn't really understand the feeling and it kind of hurt. Yet at the same time it felt exciting. The way her voice was lilting now was captivating and there was no way to turn back now. He didn't care if this was his first kiss or possibly her first kiss. He didn't care that this was a bad idea. Reaching up, the greenblood placed a hand on the side of her face, closed his eyes, and leaned up to press his lips against her's.
She tasted of raspberry.
It dawned on him that five seconds had passed, much longer than the minimum time requirement for things like these and he pulled back. Trying to hide flustered new feelings and questions, Nucleo opened his eyes and attempted to stay calm. He couldn't get rid of the stupid flush on his face though.
"Ah... Happy Perigee, Elidae. Sorry about that." Nucleo smiled sheepishly. He didn't know what to say now and didn't want to make things more awkward than they already were. But there was one thing he did know.
He hadn't kissed her for tradition.

Caiden's face was brown. He had not grown up near trolls, and to see two trolls engaging in something so intimate embarrassed him. Especially since he kinda wanted to be with them as well. Nucleo was an important friend to the brownblood, and Elidae was new, but Caiden liked her. Caiden shook his head and backed away from the uncomfortable scene.
He held his pie and walked over to a different troll, one who was not engaged in actions that made him feel too uncomfortable. Frossa seemed interested in spending time with Caiden earlier, maybe she still was. Keeping an eye out for dangerous missile-frond, Caiden approached the purpleblood. "Hi! Its me again! Um, want a slice of pie?"
The two under the mistlefrond had blushed so cutely and Amonee couldn't help but giggle at the sight of them. Caiden wandered off with his pie and the jadeblood let him. Elidae leaned forward towards his greenblooded friend and opened a sly and playful eye before closing it again. How adorable, were they really going to-
"Hey Amonee, what's going on?"
"Morning glory- you scared me!" Amonee let out a startled yelp and dropped his bag at the sound of a voice just behind his head. He hurried to pick up his gift with sheepish embarrassment as Azrael and a teen stood by watching. What a blunder to make in front of the blueblood! He straightened back up and hoped the duo wouldn't comment on what just happened. Maybe he ought to distract them- what had they asked again? First he'd introduce himself to the newcomer though. He looked interesting.
"H-hello, I'm Amonee. And oh! So Nucleo just took Elidae to the mistlefrond. And-" Drat when he looked back, it looked like he had missed seeing the kiss that took place. If one had anyways, it was hard to tell. He took note of the shy look painted all over the greenblood's face and decided to pester him later. Did Nucleo like the girl in that way? What fun gossip to try and pry out of him over some licorice and tv... He'd have to find out how she felt as well somehow...
"It looks like we missed it. Oh well, it's been a fun party, hasn't it? Wait, don't let me forget-" Amonee had come to visit the city looking for a good time and Elidae's party had delivered. He had also come to do some shopping and he pulled a small box from his bag. Getting presents had been the main reason for the trip and he has carefully looked for something special to give to his dear friend.
"Here, this is for you!" The jadeblood smiled at Azrael as he handed the gift over, just certain that the other boy would look perfect with it. It didn't occur to Amonee that the gift was really more in line with his own tastes but he really wanted his friend to have it. He didn't know when he would next see the blueblood again so it was best to force it onto him now!
Inside the box twinkled a pair of silver and pink cufflinks. Sure, one could say they were a little fancy for a troll living on the mountain but Amonee enjoyed dolling up and wanted Azrael to have something nice.

Although seemingly expecting a kiss, Elidae wavered slightly the moment she felt his lips touch hers, completely unsure what to feel. While it was simple and innocent, the feelings it produced were foreign. She dreamed her first kiss would be fully flushed, romantic and passionate. You know, like in those redrom movies! Though obviously this was not the ideal, as stumbling underneath the mistlefrond and being encouraged by onlookers only ensured the kiss to be stolen at that very moment.
Elidae’s eyes fluttered open once he pulled away, a mix of bafflement and curiosity crossing her features. That was… pleasant enough. Sweet, actually. Nucleo seemed to have lingered, inducing curious questions. A wide smile soon grew and spread across her face in response to his flustered appearance, but she also had darkened cheeks and seemed awfully giggly by the turn out of the event. It was kind of like something from a cute holiday romcom! Maybe? Except her smooching partner seemed to be a little bit behind in growth. That was okay with her, though. She sincerely did think he was cute, and who knew, perhaps he'd grow into an even bigger cutie? Elidae liked to remain optimistic.
“Hehe, no need to be sorry!” She assured, tilting her head with amusement. She lifted her hand and, with a bit of hesitance, patted the troll gently on the head. "We just got a little unlucky is all! Or... maybe not?" With a twinkle in her eye, she stuck out her tongue between her teeth. "Happy 12th Perigee to you too, Nucleo! Let's get outta here, though. Maybe someone else will end up under here! I can only hope." Loud but genuine, she laughed before escorting Nucleo away from the area, back to Amonee and- Ah! Caiden! Where had he gone? Maybe his lusus found him? The girl shrugged, then approached the cooler greenblood, who now stood in company of Azrael and Miache."Ahh! Hey! I hope your gifts were pleasant!" She greeted with cheer, then bent down to retrieve her own gift to hold it in her arms fondly.

Azrael covered his mouth and shook a bit with repressed laughter, he had gotten exactly what he'd wanted out of it. Now he knew that Amonee was probably easy to startle when he wasn't paying attention. Azrael didn't have the chance to even apologize as Amonee launched into introductions and explaining what had happened between Nucleo and Elidae.
"Oh I see..." Honestly, he was a little bit envious but also a bit grossed out by the idea. Would he have really wanted it to be him under the mistlefrond? With Elidae? Probably, but he also knew that the very Idea grossed him out at the same time. Not that Eli was gross, but kissing... that was gross and he'd really rather stop thinking about that before he felt the need to go wash himself.
"hmm?" Azrael's thoughts were interrupted once again by the greenblood, only this time to receive a box. It struck him that he hadn't brought anything for Amonee at all. He figured since they had only really just met and didn't know much about each other, that they were not at gift giving. Sure he had a gift for at least one troll he barely knew, but that was for something else entirely really. The young blueblood just stared at the box as if he had no idea what to do with the thing. He set the two gifts he had been holding down on the ground.
Just then Elidae had approached them with the greenblood she had just been smooching with. "Oh, I actually haven't opened mine, yet..." Azrael replied distractedly only briefly looking up and then back to the box his greenblood friend had given him, "Umm..." he glanced at Amonee as though looking for confirmation from something.
It was like the box had some unnatural energy that kept him in place before he finally opened the box and let out a tiny noise at the sight before tackling Amonee with a hug. "You really didn't need to get me anything," He said quietly, voice cracking with some emotion. Sadly, he didn't have anything to wear with the cufflinks. He would have to change that later, for now... he was just grateful for the gift. "Thanks Amonee... I... thank you," there wasn't much he could say past that. Why was Amonee so good at making him feel so fuzzy like that? Finally he let go of Amonee and cleared his throat, a light smile still remained on his face. Quite a scene he had made, hadn't he? "I umm, I'm sorry I didn't get you anything," for the briefest moment he glanced at the mistlefrond. No, he couldn't subject Amonee to that and call it a gift.
He turned his attention to Mia with a broad smile, "Oh. Mia! I want you to meet a couple of my friends," he said almost excitedly. "This is Elidae, she ran the entire game and did a really good job of it too"" He waved his empty hand as though to emphasize his point. "And you've already met Amonee, he's one of my neighbors in busthind, Amonee, Elidae, this is Mia."
"Yes, I believe Azrael will thoroughly enjoy my gift," he said, smiling at Elidae. "I wasn't the troll that.....gift.....was meant for, I'm sure, but it seems to pertain to his interests far better," he added, glancing at the smaller troll. Yes.....insects were FAR from his range of interests. He shuddered at the very thought. "Aside from the.....surprise of my gift it has been a lovely time," he said, politely as possible. No need to add that any time he opened boxes of BUGS he put it in a very neat, orderly list of 'Worst nights of my ******** life and ******** THIS NOISE'.
He started at the sight of the rather fancy cufflinks. Certainly not a colour he was partial to, but a very sensible gift, he was impressed the young troll had such classy taste. "A pleasure, again," he said, nodding curtly to the trolls he was introduced to. He'd briefly spoken with the yellowblood, but it hadn't been much before. "I must say, I commend your taste in gifts," he said to the jadeblood, "I don't get the pleasure of seeing many other trolls to appreciate accesories that complement a good suit." He was suddenly remiss he'd changed from his usual pinstripe suit. At least he still had a rather classy tie and dress shirt. He didn't even bother shooting dirty looks around the room at the LESSER dressed than himself, but the thought was still there. He already knew there were CERTAIN older trolls that SHOULD KNOW HOW TO DRESS THEMSELVES THAT DIDN'T!! But that was none of his business.

As Elidae and Nucleo approached them again, Azrael stared at the gift in his hands. Amonee smiled and clasped his own hands behind his back with a pleasant but anxious feeling bubbling in his stomach. He was certain the blueblood would like the gift but would he really wear it? A sudden pair of arms wrapped around him in a fierce tackle that startled and delighted the jadeblood with a laugh.
"It's okay. You gave me a hug, right? I'm happy with that!" Amonee kept his own arms around Azrael in a comfy embrace to emphasize how pleased he was. Affection was really the best gift a desperately social troll like Amonee could ask for! He leaned and gave the other a gentle peck on the forehead before pulling back to let the blueblood begin a round of introductions.
"Hello, Mia. This is my friend Nucleo too. He runs The Nightly Grind cafe on Busthind. You should all come by sometime!" Amonee clapped a hand on the greenblood's shoulder with a shamelessly cheerful business plug. This was a good chance to spread the word on Nucleo's home-brewed cafe with all these potential customers here. He couldn't wait to see what new drinks the greenblood would offer with the latest ingredients they'd bought in town. Nucleo was a genius in the kitchen and he would definitely trap him there later to ask about the coffee as well as about Elidae...
"Yes, I searched hard for something fancy. Do you have any favorite places to shop? For recommending I mean." Amonee listened to Mia's compliments earnestly. He was personally more interested in artistic draping and flowing fabrics rather than impeccably tailored suits but he had to admit the dress shirt and slacks looked sharp on Mia. The older troll must be one of those cosmopolitan trolls in the know with what it really meant to be sophisticated. It wouldn't hurt to learn from him!
Or from the chic and fashionable yellowblood looking around the room with a smile sweeter than frosting.
"Oh um, Elidae- Thank you for hosting this game. This has been the best Perigee's Eve ever! We should meet up again, if I throw a party, I'll send you an invite!" He didn't know what it would be but hopefully he could cook up another way to match her and Nucleo up again just to see what happened. Maybe it was kind of gossipy or nosy but he was curious to see how it unfolded!
He glanced at Nucleo again, wondering how the greenblood was holding up. Perhaps they ought to get back to the hotel soon? It was getting later than they'd scheduled for shopping.

[+] Kursha Vidari
Kursha watched with no small amount of irritation as Alifax, deaf to his greeting, hurried over to a small, frilled purpleblood. He was sore tempted to butt in on their conversation, or at the very least eavesdrop, but decided against it. Alifax had not meant any harm by ignoring him. Hell, he probably had not even heard him call out in the first place... probably.
Spurned by jealous pique, Kursha made a mental note of the slight. He could wait.
Turning his attention from the redblood, Kursha looked among the rest of the crowd for a familiar face. He caught a glimpse of Lorata, but she appeared to be preoccupied with a friend: a young, yellowblood with... wings. He paused on the girl, expression caught between disbelief and scepticism. Well, wasn't she the brave one, coming out into public like that. Didn't she know that some zealous trolls might see that as a culling offence?
He was tempted to put a little fear into her—where was her lusus anyway?—but Lorata seemed to be having a good time, and Kursha was not about to spoil that for her. He could always inquire about their relationship later. Banishing the thought from his mind, he resumed his surveillance. Unfortunately, there was no one else he recognised, or at the very least no one he felt like talking to.
... That was not entirely true.
Surrounded by a cluster of midbloods and the young orangeblood from before was Elidae. She seemed busy but... Kursha slipped a hand into his pocket. His fingers found the smooth and cool surface of a round object. He rolled it between his fingers, thinking. Hesitating. That was not like him. Since when did he let apprehension dictate his actions? He had always the type to throw caution to the winds and act without looking back. So what the hell was he doing now? He had come here for a reason.
Both hands in his pockets, he sauntered over to the group. He nodded towards Azrael and his older companion. “Enjoy your gifts?” he asked, gaze lingering on the latter with a smirk. While he would not give himself away entirely, he did not mind dropping a hint or two. After a moment of allowing the blueblood to process his meaning, he grinned wider.
“Anyway, sorry to interrupt, but I'm gonna borrow the host for just a minute,” he continued with a wink. Then, before anyone could object, he slipped in, placed both hands on Elidae's shoulders, and steered her away from the crowd.

Wasn't sure if Nucleo was going to stick around, but in case he was leaving and you wanted to say goodbye or something!
