Welcome to Gaia! ::

[[May I join as well?? I don't have a picture yet, but I'll draw one up later ^^ Posting with my mule till my real account is unhacked OTL]]

Zel looked around the steadily filling room, his face a moue of displeasure. It was loud and stuffy and crowded – parties were definitely not his idea of fun. That idiot Gaius wasn’t here either (even though the glaceon had been the one to dangle another tantalizing job offer before him, so long as he was present). He tugged uncomfortably at his costume – a terrible incubus (what the hell was an incubus anyways?) outfit that the clerk had somehow assured him was a very common and popular choice. The buckled straps of the faux demon wings chafed against his skin and he could have sworn that the leather pants (and belts, oh god, the belts) that had come with the costume were at least 2 sizes too small.

He checked his watch for the umpteenth time that evening and prepared to leave. He should have known that Gaius wouldn’t follow through. Zel began pushing through the throng of people to reach the door….when from the corner of his eye a small Smoochum in red being…bullied by a man in a panda suit. He growled as his temper flared and headed over immediately, any plans for an early exit momentarily abandoned.

Zel knelt down beside the Smoochum to help pick up some of the scattered treats and murmured in a much softer tone, “You all right? Come on, don’t cry. They’re still good.” To prove his point, he grabbed one of the treats that was still mostly whole, blew off a bit of the dust, and popped it in his mouth. “Delicious,” he said, grinning encouragingly.

He then looked up at the punk that had perpetrated the ill-thought prank. “Hey you in the panda suit, just what the hell do you think you’re doing?” he bit out, baring his teeth and clamping a hand around the man’s arm.

xxxxxThe Sneasel girl sat there, nibbling on her brownies that she plucked from the snack table with her bladed fingers. She munched happily on the delicious treats. Her large, red eyes wandered her surroundings. Noticing each detail in her environment. Zoey noticed the unique decor that looked antique and collected piles of dust. Were these party decor or is this really what the mansion looked like? Setting the questions aside, Zoey reached her sharp claw out for more treats.

xxxxxShe heard an uproar in the crowd. Her head turned to the direction of the yelling. Curious, she ventured into the crowd of people. She slipped passed strangers in masks and costumes. Keeping her head down and her sharp claws away from people. Zoey then squeezed herself between more people, and stumbled out of the crowd. It was quite tight in the sea of people. She finally made it. She saw a male dressed as an Incubus (a very sexy costume), an adorable girl in a Red Riding Hood costume, a girl dressed as a character from a video game, and some anonymous person in a Panda Suit. The male in the Incubus costume was confronting the one in the Panda Suit. And the Red Riding Hood was tearing up. Some treats from her basket scattered across the floor.

xxxxxZoey knew nothing of what happened. But she was curious. She stood a little bit away from the scene. Just observing quietly. The Sneasel cosplay girl stared at the four, her crimson eyes sparkling. She was bored. She wanted to make some friends, but was much too shy. Maybe after this little frackus, she might introduce herself. Or try to. She didn't know. She was horrible at friend making. Zoey was always too nervous and stumbled upon her words. Stammering like an idiot.

"The witches fly
Across the sky,
The owls go, 'Who? Who? Who?'"

Miyabi had been waving her pitchfork and giggling uncontrollably a minute before, but now perceiving the tears and the fuss, she quickly sobered up. Pitchfork abandoned, she dashed forward to intervene in a small panic. They were blaming the panda? That's not right, it was me, it was me-

"IT WAS MEEE!" Quite accidentally, her circling thoughts had been blurted out. She rushed on, concious of the onlookers' stares, "It wasn't panda, Gurdy actually asked him to do it...She's sorry, she really is. She only wanted to scare her a little as a joke, and maybe take some candy but she didn't want anyone to cry about it! She-I mean I- will make it up to you~~!"

In an attempt at apologizing, she gave an exaggerated bow. A mistake, for weighed down by her pompom and ears, she ended up toppling headfirst into the candy-strewn ground.

"You-your treats look really good," Her voice was muffled as she floundered in the mess, the length of ribbon tangling her again.

Costume: Gurdy, the Chocobo-selling Moogle (FFXII)

"The black cats yowl
And green ghosts howl,
'Scary Halloween to you!'"

❥ Things unfolded rather quickly, leaving the Smoochum at loss for words as the Panda apologized so sweetly after ruining her snacks. Her mouth opened to respond though nothing came out except an inaudible crack in her voice. She honestly felt like a complete idiot for making this seem worse than it really was. She was just being a brat again. Pouting she closed her mouth again just as an odd looking character burst out apologizing in a babble, only making her feel worse. It was no big deal. They were just snacks. So why did she have to go & cry like that? Even the Zangoose male in the very revealing outfit seemed a bit colder to her, making herself believe she deserved that for her over reaction. The Smoochum was too hard on herself, tonight was no exception.

Hearing that the Zangoose was leaving her face only twisted into more depression, but couldn't put her finger on why. It just strangely hurt. In a swift motion her head turned to the taller male still wearing that twisted expression. "Please don't... leave... I'm sorry for getting you involved in this... I was stupid to cry about spilled snacks..." Pausing briefly she looked over at the two who had apologized to her. "It is nearing Halloween, so mischief should be expected." Slowly her expression softened little by little, forcing herself to smile a little weakly, but for some reason felt intimidated just being in the Zangoose's presence even though moments ago felt a sense of kindness & security from him. It was like that all just vanished in the blink of an eye because of her own stupidity. In a strange sense, the feeling reminded her of Red Riding Hood & the Big Bad Wolf. Just how easily he could turn to seem scary, & in the next could as easily be endearing & protective. But that was her own foolishness hanging the clouds again. "So... If it's not too much to bother you with... could you please stay & accompany me?" It was the only time then that she actually warily looked over him, though her own cheeks showing the embarrasment of even looking.
