Welcome to Gaia! ::

Max sheepishly entered the courtyard from the Boys' Dorms. He still was new to the school, but he decided that this event would be a good way to break the ice. Max pulled his coat over his shirt and tie. It was a good thing the weater and nature mages at Ria were so good. He walked up to the registry table and wrote his name, along with his dish. He set down the pot and looked at it. 'Mom's homemade wedding soup... I think that'll do it.'

He chuckled to himself and walked away from the table. He thought about what he put in it.

chicken broth... check
pastino... check
mini meatballs... check
carrots... check
celery... check
escarole... check... well, that's good. I got everything into it.'

He headed over to a table and sat down. One of the judges, Mr. Violet, looked angry. 'hm... I wonder what's wrong?' Max thought to himself. Oh well, not much I can do...' After a while, he decided it was too hot to wear a coat, so he took it off and hung it up on a coat-rack. 'I hope Winter shows up...'

As Violet saw that Eiyah decided to greet herself to the students and all, Violet let out a sigh and went straight in front of Eiyah to lead the way.

"Honestly Eiyah..." Violet began to start as they walked down the place. "A good princess is supposed to be Refine... Tidy and very very very modest." He said closing his eyes and raising a finger in the air. "I mean take the Princess Alyssa from the Planet Zenith. She is reknowned for staying calm even in battle. You on the other hand.. just tend to throw yourself everywhere!" Violet then nodded his head in agreement with himself.

"So as a princess..." Violet turned around and found Eiyah missing suddenly. "... Miss Eiyah?" Violet asked nobody and darted his head this way and taht way. There he found her stroking Joy's ears.

"... the... heck.. how did..." Violet just sighed and walked over. "Eiyah!! Did you listen to a word i said!?" He asked Eiyah knowing the answer would be no anyways.

"*sigh*"

With a deep sigh, Tiffany entered the cold courtyard. She could see Mages everywhere trying their hardest to keep the place warm and cozy. Tiff just smiled and started to take her first step into the competition grounds. From the looks of it, few people have arrived, perhaps she was early or maybe some people had brought some good looking dishes which would have scared the competition away...Who knows.

Despite of it being cold (even with the mages help) Tiff still wore some skimpy clothing. It was like she was immune to the cold. Tiff was trained under harsh conditions, so the cold didnt really bother her that much.

Tiff wore a gorgeous white fleeced strapless dress. The dress barely covered her legs, so if she was to do a simple kick, or just lean over, her panties would be showing. Around her waist she wore a perfectly tied white ribbon bow that gracefully danced in unison with the winds gust. To cover up her legs (or somewhat cover up her legs) Tiff wore a white silky frill knee socks. Along the sides of the knee socks were tiny floral designs that gave the socks a fancy look. For shoes she wore black strap on shoes that could be seen worn by little middle scool girls. Tiff also wore light blue leg warmers for extra warmth. Tiff wore white frilly gloves and white frilly arm warmers for warmth for her hands and arms. To compliment her black shoes, Tiff had on a black ribbon choker. She also wore her famous and precious banni clips for this accosion. In her hand, Tiff held an angelic white parasol. It looked like the parasol came down from heaven itself. In all, it looked like Tiff was some sort of angel that fell down from heaven...either that or she looked like some sort of rich kid.

Already Tiff saw some familiar students in the courtyard. She smiled as she saw how many people were already having fun. She was even laughing at Mr. Violet because he seemed so stressed out. Tiff opened her parasol and walked to the nearest bench. She slowly sat down and looked to the girl's dorms. She was waiting for Kiyowa to bring the food that they had made together. She was praying that Kiyowa didnt add any poisen or anything like that.

"This will be a great competition!"

A sudden shriek of content echoing through the Courtyard caused Makie to turn around. Her chocolate eyes scanned the area until she found that the voice belonged to a girl. A pretty girl. She had long silky pink hair and enchanting eyes. She was doing something with Joy's ears, and then the brunette's eyes spotted a violet haired guy that seemed to be very angry with her. Makie wondered why.

Walking silently, but at an equally fast pace towards the girl. Her brown hair flowing in the wind behind her as the fluffy ears on her hat also flapped everywhere in the wind. Her small legs started to slow down as she approached the rose haired girl. She cleared her throat slightly.

"Uhh... E-Ex-Excuse me..." Makie's voice said quietly. "E-Excuse me, M-Miss..." She started waiting for her to turn around. She was pretty small, but she was still taller then Makie. The brunette intertwined her fingers taking a deep breath. Makie gulped slightly, holding her hands infront of her almost non-existant chest. She was about to open her small mouth to speak again when she heard familiar voices.

'Sakura! Feena!' Makie thought to herself, letting her hands fall to her sides. Had she been stupid enough to not notice her friends. A soft smile appeared on her small face as she cried out in a small happy voice. "S-Sakura!" Makie's white bunny eared hat fell off of her small head as she hugged her lavender haired friend tightly. "I-I've missed you!"

Misty came shortly after Makie, picking up the brunette's white fluffy hat in her hands. She merely stood there quietly, watching the small girl hug her friend. Well, looks like it didn't take her long to find her friends.

( ... Terrible... )

"FLOATING HANDS?! WHERE?!!" Eiyah heard the exclamnation of such an odd thing. "WHERE WHERE WHERE WHERE WHERE WHERE?!" Her aqua eyes dashed back and forth. "Did you hear Violet?! FLOATING HANDS! OH MY GOD WE'VE GOTTA SEE!" She grabbed the teacher's hand in excitement and started to drag him away, until sense finally made its way into her mind. Eiyah stopped walking. "NOOOO! WHAT WAY?! AHHH!" She desperately cried. "Oooo" She saw a very cute pair of bunny ears on the ground. "AH! BUNNY EARS!" Eiyah looked up at the annoyed robbotics teacher. "Ria has so many cute ears!!" Her head fell to the side slightly and her eyes widened. "YOU HAVE A PURPLE EARING" Eiyah pointed out with much more volume than she had intended. "CAN I HAVE IT?! Eww wait. I dun want it. You keep it." She smiled graciously as if she had just given Violet a new chance at life.

((I gtg for the night, but i seriously wanted to know if we were to enter one dish, or one meal that might have 2 or three dishes in it. Is there going to be separte contest for desertes, breads, entrees, appitsers, snacks, ect? I would like to know this before i proceed further tomarrow. Have a Happy lucky food festival!!))

((It doesnt matter. As you can see Joy entered a bunch of mango dishes.))

Eiyah glanced around for what she should do next. It seemed that the only intresting things she had already noticed. Except for the cute tiger but she had already petted some kitty ears. "Ok. I dont think all the contestants are here yet. But we can start. Would you like to do that? Or would you rather continue with the introductions?" Miraciously her high frecuency levels had crashed back to normal. Normal for another 19 year old teacher. Eiyah's arms where folded and she looked up at Violet again. "See if people where here earlier we wouldnt have to introduce ourselves again." She gasped for the 7th time. "YOU SHOULD DO AN ENTRANCE. Oh wait they already know you. Ok. That's fine." Some how even with this much restraint her mouth still ran on and on.
