Welcome to Gaia! ::

The reaper rubbed her chin thoughtfully as Ash went on to describe prom and then other events that could possibly happen at the school. She gave a nod of her head in understanding, appreciating that the ghoul took the time to describe it. It seemed like it was some kind of celebration? Dancing, music, maybe even food? That did sound exciting…maybe the school would have another one next year, and she’d be here for it!

Hel politely listened to Xiu and Ash for now, though the appearance of the Trick or Treater had her wary. The last time she showed up…please…please don’t let it be glitter!

Once again, the reaper could only stand there in a stupor as this booth erupted into chaos. Furry, dancing chaos.

The ghoul tensed, watching as the hamsters swayed and danced to the beat of the music, and looked down around her feet to make sure that she wouldn’t step on any of them. She really didn’t feel like cleaning up hamster from her boots. Hel watched as Ash suddenly dove somewhere to try something, her brows furrowing, about to offer help when another reaper seemed to make the offer as well. The dual toned ghoul turned to look at Joachim, assessing him for a moment. That…wasn’t a hamster on his head was it? Oh…oh no, it wasn’t. Whew.

“Yes…if you need any help, please, I would like to be of assistance as well.” Anything to get these furry things out of here.

Aislin finally finished setting up what she'd been working on, herding the hamsters over towards the now designated area as best she could. Thankfully they didn't seem to catch on that she was leading them over to what would surely be their doom. She dusted her hands off and headed back behind the booth, changing the music to help keep the hamsters distracted and dancing. It was then that Joachim approached and a wide grin spread across her face. Hel as well as Xiu offered their assistance.

For a moment the banshee's wide smile faltered, became something a bit smaller and far more... touched. She shook her head, pale hair flying about her face, and the grin was back along with a shriek of a laugh.

"Jo! No, it's alright guys, I've got things handled here! Do you want to try and whack a hamster? It's free!"

"Sure.... I wouldn't mind smacking a few vermin," He replied looking around for some sort of weapon to use to beat down the little menacing dancers. Merel squeaked loudly pointing at a soft mallet laying on the edge of the booth.

“Perfect! Shall we try Merel,” Joachim as he held the mallet in his hand with a rather anxious look of dispoing of the creatures he wasn't too fond of.

SCORE. The manticat strutted up with it's prize in its jaws, tucking the dead hamster behind the booth neatly, as a sort of grim 'present'.

Cats.

Aislin cheered as Joachim disposed of not one but TWO of the dancing balls of fur. Not only had her friend managed to smash two but it seemed that a westernly-dressed Manticat had also managed to get rid of one. Ash wrinkled her nose as the 'present' was offered to her behind her booth. It seemed that the minipet belonged to Cady, or at least that's the name she THOUGHT she read on the shiny badge pinned to the creature's carapace.

The banshee's attention was drawn up from behind the booth as someone approached. Her smile grew as she saw a fellow ghost heading up to her booth. Aislin waved in greeting and listened to her question. She replied with energy. "You're new? Like new-new? Enrolled? Oh my gosh! I'm Ash!" A giggle erupted from her, pitching up into a shriek of glee as she reached out to take the other ghost ghoul's hands in hers. "You already know that, though! How would I make new students feel welcome? Well I'd do what I've been doing. Meet everyone! Talk with them! I've already met some new friends and I'd be happy to show you around!"

She tugged on the other ghoul's hands lightly, the fog curling from her throat hanging in the air the more she spoke. She was very obviously excited, exclamation points punctuating the swirls of faintly colored smoke. "What's your name? Oh! And you should play my game! You can win a minipet!"

Having been to a lot of the games that were being offered at this festival he had yet to come over to where the students had set up there own booths and had looked things over at a distance before heading in among them. The first stop that he made was to Aislin's booth to see what she was running for. Adyian saw that she was running for VP. He was very curious about all of it as it was sorta new to him as he knew what student council was but had never seen it in action.

He just quietly looked things over at her booth as he could see that she was talking to someone else right this second and wasn't going to be rude and interrupt and just decided to wait his turn. He was so going to get a surprise of his life as he when he sees what Aislin wearing. Adyian was liking the music that was playing as he reached over to one of the plushes as they were very cute and was reading up her campaign slogan.

He decided that he was going to keep the plushy it was cute and something that he could also remember his time here. He could also see that things were very different then they are at home as it was mostly the teachers and from what he could see that it was the students that got to choose, all of this just wanted him to come to this school even more.

The Fu Dog turned as he heard the ghouls voice calling out to him. "Hello..." Adyian said as he did finally did see what she was wearing and was embarrassed as it was something that he never had seen and if he didn't have dark skin she would see that he was blushing as he was looking at the ground as he tried to regather his thought. Looking back up at Ash as he was smiling at her sheepishly. "Sorry about that, everything is just so new to me and its nice to meet you as well, by the way I'm Adyian," he answered sheepishly.

Christof almost made it back to Riley's booth, if his brain hadn't decided to send a random message to his feet to swivel diagonally, take four steps sideways, and then drift like a leaf on the wind. He only stopped when he heard the audible crunch under his boot. What had...? Oh. It was just some small furry thing with the thing and oooh his head hurt. Wobbling a bit, he hardly noticed the tiny creatures bouncing like fleas as one decided his hunch made a good perch.

His quest lay before him, and the igor continued forth cluelessly.
