Welcome to Gaia! ::

The lemur cracked a smile, moving his shades just long enough to wink. "Yep," he told her bluntly, "I pissed off the girls. It was all a big misunderstanding of course." His tail swished back and forth anxiously, betraying his nerves. He glanced around at the newest arrivals. While he didn't recognize some that didn't really mean much, there had apparently been a lot of newbies during his bout of drunken stupors. "Don't tell Shouko I'm back here, okay?" he asked, "I'll uh, give you some smokes or something if you keep quiet." Or some candy, probably less likely to get him in trouble with the kid's parents.

Owen turned at the sound of his name and smiled once he spotted the caller. It had been some time since the trip to the museum where he'd met Nahuel but the other boy was easy to remember and recognize.
The other Eden didn't seem to have grown much since they'd last met but there was a difference in him none the less.

Before he had a chance to respond Nahuel was distracted by the appear of someone Owen didn't know. Shrugging it off the rabbit boy turned and went looking for someone to talk to that wasn't already engaged in conversation.

Tea couldn't help but laugh at the idea of chucking mud at them. "Nah, a little worse than mud," he conceded, trying to think of the best way to phrase it to a kid, "I uh, well." He scratched behind one of his ears, at a bit of a loss for words. "Oh, I know. You know when a boy and a girl really really like each other and they kiss and... stuff. Well it was her and Tyyne, maybe a little close to the same time and not exactly discrete." That still sounded more slutish than he had hoped.

He had caught no undue attention or any attention at all it seemed. The teen couldn't decide if that was a good thing or a bad thing as he was used to at least having some form of attention upon him. The teen nibbled on his lower lip where a ring pierced it and then continued to move forward ever further into the proverbial lion's den. There was a snag in his plan. Now that he was here what did he do? Did he mingle and get to know others? Did he just stand apart and listen in on the conversations? There seemed to be a rather juicy buzz in the air or at least the scent of it by the way people behaved that were near the boy with the ringed tail.

Idly he drifted over to get a better grasp of the situation.

While Regina had been talking to Tea, a few people either approached, moved closer, or drifted by. She noticed each one, though she didn't outright look at them. Her ears simply twitched towards the direction, then her attention was back on Teagan. However, someone had gotten close and didn't seem to be moving. She frowned a little, feeling the fur on the back of her ears prickle, and turned her head curiously, glancing over at a teenager with a metal thing in his lip. She frowned a little, narrowing her eyes curiously, and tilted her head. And then she did what any person would probably do. Maybe.

She waved at the person.

Regina hadn't noticed Tea get closer to her, if she had she would've laughed. Pff, like she needed protecting. She could kick butt! ... Or Carl's butt, but he might've let her win. ... If Carl let her win, she'd be awfully mad at him! Her ears perked up when she turned back to him, and she made a face at his comment. The cigarette didn't bother her, at least not yet. Neither Carl nor Monty smoked, so it wasn't something she'd been introduced to. She watched him light the cigarette curiously, and then shook her head. "Girls have cooties." She snorted at him, like he was unaware of the danger he was putting himself into. The cootie was clearly a viral disease spread by girls.

"... Nuh uh." Regina stared at him, brown eyes opened wide. "Poisonous snakes gotta stay in their cages, my Monny says so." She said matter-of-factly, snorting at him. "Boys have cooties too, they just have different kinds of cooties." She made a face. "But those're probably just as bad as poisonous snakes." She said, eying him. She took a step back. "Don't give me your cooties please." She stuck her tongue out, and grinned at the same time, giving her a sort of dog-with-its-tongue-hanging-out effect.

"If a boy took down his pants in front of me I'd smack him." She snorted, crossing her arms stubbornly. "Not gonna get attacked by some stupid poisonous snake. Got bit once, thank you." She huffed, rubbing at her arm where one of Monty's snakes had bitten her. She looked up at him. "Hey, what's your name?" She blinked owlishly.
