Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was rare for the ghost boil to actually look worn out or tired, but he was certainly a little on the ragged side as he shuffled towards the concession stand. Though despite looking a little on the fatigued side he was sporting a rather proud grin, an obvious air of satisfaction surrounding him. He'd done it, he'd beaten that Jack damned obstacle course, and he'd done it on his first Jacking try. That seemed worthy of pride in his book.

He spotted Junko at once, and the sight of the ghoul in her new fearleading uniform was enough to turn the grin into something much closer to a leer, chuckling softly under his breath as he approached her. "Hey J, how's it feel to be dating a winner?" Cocky much? Oh yes.

The benches that had been dragged out and set around were extremely inviting, but Seiji made his way to the Futakuchi-onna first. Draping his arms over her shoulders and laying his cheek on one so he could brush her cheek with a rather lazy kiss. Leaning a little more of his weight onto her then he'd probably meant to. He was tired, and he wasn't used to dealing with that sort of thing. "How's everything going over here?" At last he looked at the stand itself and everything the two fearleaders had done with it. "You guys did a great job."

Junko greeted properly, he could turn his attention out to the other students milling about. Glancing first towards the other two boils. "You two passed too? That's awesome." If he wasn't so terribly comfortable leaning on Junko he'd offer them both a knuckle bump. He wasn't quite willing to move just yet.

Xiu and Sam both earned themselves a grin and a lazy wiggle of human fingers. He knew the ghouls, but not exceptionally well yet. They did seem pretty cool though from what limited interactions he'd had with them.

Junko was watching Sammy with a thoughtful frown. "We should've gotten towels." She told Shehk, pouting. How could they not think of towels? She didn't blame Shehk or anything, it was something that had easily slipped both of their minds. She could see why. Towels were not food. But still! "I made some squirrel burgers for Shehk, she should be alright with squirrels." She told Sammy with a giggle. She felt bad for not having any towels for the ghoul but..she was undead. It'd..it'd be okay, right? Did undead get sick? She didn't think they did. She was batting her hair away from a slice of cake when she turned her attention to Roch again. Nostalgic? She blinked. "You do things like this often?" She couldn't remember a stage where anyone hung from their fingertips on a ledge. Huh. She'd have to go find out.

"A scrape smoothie?" Of course! She smiled and nodded. "As soon as Shehk's done with it I'll give it a quick rinse and make one for you!" She chirped, looking to Shehk again to see if she was almost finished. She wouldn't rush her. But she noticed the way the ghoul was checking out the spookies and blinked, tilting her head to one side. Hmmm! She bent down a moment and disappeared under the booth, coming back up with a small stack of cookies; they looked similar to the ones she had made for her original campaign booth with Shehk's special recipe. They were squirrel shaped! "Here, I made these for you. A thank you for all the help!" And because Shehk was awesome. FEARleading, letting her practice making a variety of clothes, student council, this booth. She was liking Shehk more and more by the day.

Junko looked up when he heard Seiji's voice, eyes wide and grinning wide. "Probably the same as dating an upperclassman on the FEARleading squad who's vice president of the student council, I'd imagine." She chirped, making a happy little noise as he came around to drape on her and kiss her cheek. She was happy! He made it on his first try! She reached up to give his hand a squeeze. "Very good job, ねえ！" She was very proud of him! But as he leaned his weight into her she pouted and gave his hand another squeeze. Awww, so tired!

"We're doing fine! Just opened up for everyone. ねえ, I need you to get up a second. Roch wants a scrape smoothie." Junko said gently, nudging him with her shoulder until he relented so she could step around Shehk, filling the blender with enough water to swish it around and dump it out, cleaning it out with a rag before filling it up with the ingredients to make a scrape smoothie. "Does anyone else want one~?" Since she was here, after all.

Nodding to Junko, Shun considered his options. Something cool would probably be good. At least for a drink.

"Hm.. I'll take one of those smoothies as well I guess. And some pizza," he requested before turning towards Roch. It sounded like the other Reaper had done some similar things as well.

"It's too bad this area doesn't have too many oportunities for these things.." he murmured before glancing up at the sound of another voice. It was the ghost boy who had just cleared the course as well. He nodded to Seiji as he addressed him.

About then, he heard an unfamiliar voice approaching. Turning, he saw a Valkyrie girl who.. bore some resemblance to Hel. Perhaps it was just a Valkyrie thing though. Who knew.

Having failed at the obstacle course, Mai made her way to the next point of interest. There was a slowly growing group of students gathered about a shack nearby. It seemed as if they were set up for an eating competition, and it all looked very fascinating. Mai did her best to repair the shifting of her outfit caused by her recent physical exertions and floated over to the stand.

She quietly slipped in next to the blonde hauling the trunk and penned her name on the signup sheet. Having accomplished that, she set about investigating the food in order to better appreciate what she was in for. This mostly consisted of lowering her face right above an item and staring it down, or poking tentatively at this or that morsel with her fingertips. She didn't really know what she was looking for, but she thought it best that she appeared interested. As a ghost, she didn't have much use for food (though she did eat on occasion if she was bored). After giving it a few moments of thought, Mai became somewhat curious about what would happen if she ate a very large amount of food. Could be diverting.

Shehk's ears seemed to perk up. Oh, way to her heart - through her stomach. Well..kinda. Her heart had a personalized entrance in it made from when a certain skinwalker had just bulldozed his way in there and made sure nobody else would ever gain entry by boarding up all the other entrances into there, but...

Shehk was definitely appeasable with a meal. It was probably part of why she didn't completely hate Decebal after a couple of days. The Pricolici grinned. "Thank you!" she grinned, taking one with a sort of delighted giddy to her posture. Ohhhhh, spookies. They were so nice to have. She felt like one of those special diet kids sometimes, but man oh man. The rare treat was worth even more to her when she could get her paws on them.

Taking a moment to rinse out the blender, however, she seemed to deem her use of it done. "Alright, Junko. I'm done with this so you can give it a whirl now~ I'll stay out of the kitchen goddess's way." she jested, finding a spot to sit while she nibbled at that spookie. Mmmmm, it was so nice to eat something and not feel like she was going to regret it later that day.

However, she did look over when it seemed that Junko was getting a...special...visit from one of their booth visitors. Well..um.. Shehk was sort of wondering if she needed to save Miss Vice President from the situation, but none the less kept out of it. At least she had to try to not get too "f;dslkfd" right off the bat about something like that. Maybe the two knew each other.

That was possible.

"That's um... very nice." Shehk grinned. "We'll have to see if we can out-man your stomach then, sweetheart." she teased, throwing the challenge out there.

Kitchen goddess? Junko blushed. "Wh-what? I..I'm not a kitchen goddess." She nearly dropped one of the grape clusters, giving the others a shy smile when Shun, Xiu and Seiji asked for smoothies as well. "Sure thing~!" Junko turned on the noisy blender when it seemed like she'd gotten all the answers she was going to get. It seemed she'd need to do this twice but considering it was all the same ingredients it wasn't a big deal. Once that was done the first two smoothies were poured evenly into three cups and offered out to the two boils; this was when Junko was glad she was wearing her FEARleading uniform instead of her kimono, the sleeves weren't going to get into the food. She had no sleeves! She also picked up a paper plate and a serving knife she had borrowed from the home ick room, picking up a slice of gooey cheesy pizza for Shun. "Here you go~!" She hoped it was good. Junko had never made pizza before. She turned back to the blender to repeat the process, offering the two cups to Xiu and Seiji now with a bright smile.

She turned back to regard everyone else only to have her vision blur and..uh...were those eyes? Her own glowing green eyes widened and she squeaked. "U-uh...um..!" She blushed. Who was this ghoul and why was she in her face? All she could see was wide, blue eyes and blonde hair. Who was this...?! "O..kaaaay...um...help yourself, then! I made plenty for everyone." Junko lifted her hands a little and stepped back, looking quite flustered. She'd even called her pretty lady. She was used to being that close to Seiji's face...and only Seiji's face. Personal spaaaaaace!

Who was this? Oh! But she'd signed up for the contest! Junko leaned over to read the name. "It's..nice to meet you Miss Freya?" She looked up to confirm that was her name. Another ghost ghoul approached to sign her name and she blinked, unfortunately only noticing one thing in the angle she was leaning at.

She made Junko's own chest feel painfully inadequate.

She blushed again and stood straight, rubbing at the back of her neck. "...Are you a valkyrie?" Junko tilted her head to one side. She had wings, very pretty wings. Hel had wings! Clearly looking human and having feathered wings made everyone a valkyrie.

Everyone.

"A friend of mine is a valkyrie too! I bet you'd like her!" Ohhh this was so exciting! Junko was just going to distract herself away from the memory of having this ghoul get all up in her face. Yup. Nothing awkward.

"Hm? O-oh! Thank you, Junko!" Xiu hastily reached out to take the smoothie, giving a little bow of her head as she did so. Turning back to look at Shun at his comment, the ghoul's brows drew together as she stared at the newcomer curiously.

"A-actually, aniki, now that you mention it..." But then again, as he said, it could have simply been because they were both Valkyries. Still, it was possible that this ghoul and Hel could have been acquaintances, right? Xiu knew that Bakus had a tendency of keeping in touch, so maybe it was the same thing for them. She was so thinking so deeply about this that the suddenly change in topic startled her out of her thoughts.

"W-wha--oh! Um..." Was she going to? "It's...not really my thing, but I figured that I...might give it a try?" Again, she wasn't very confident about her chances of during well on the course. It was no surprise that Shun could get through it effortlessly, but for someone like her?

From the corner of her eye, she spotted Roch signing up for the eating contest. Not surprising at all. Still, a little frown tugged at her lips as she cast a concerned glance at him. Though she couldn't quite pinpoint an exact reason, something was telling her that..."Are you...are you sure that's a good idea, Roch?" She couldn't help but pipe up, frowning slightly.

Roch ignored the stomach patting entirely and unzipped his vest, pulling out his eyephone and setting the phone to dial his old man. Then he tossed it to Xiu. "If I go too far, call him, alright?" he said to the baku reluctantly.

Then a little, tiny grin pulled at his lips as he looked at Freya. "You think I can't out-eat you, huh? Well, we'll see," he said with disarming modesty. "I have been cutting back lately."
