    Skye & Celeste & Frost & Nikolas & KennaSkye smiled sheepishly, letting one ear flop to the side. "It's good to be back; I missed you and the others," she agreed, letting the formality slide a little. She'd always speak in a unique manner, likely, but that was just who she was. "Yeah, it's a Beedrill. I wasn't sure what else to make; I'm glad you like it, though. No one's really commented on it, yet."
"I've been better, to be honest, but I'm much happier now that I'm out and doing things. I've never been to a festival before. What about you?" Her voice was soft, but obviously interested in the conversation. Any mention of the festival seemed to catch her attention rather easily. It was a new experience for her, and she didn't want to miss a beat.
The line shifted forward, a new load of people clambering onto the ferris wheel. Looking up past the group of people, she realized with a jolt of disappointment that they'd be getting onto the ride after this group.
In fact, now that she realized just how many people there were, she twitched her ears uncomfortably. She hadn't really been around so many Pokemon at once, and it was still a little difficult to get used to the noise and excitement of it all.
"Are crowds always so noisy?" she asked Ivy, blinking over the crimson contact lenses.

   Tetris && Luka && Jude"...This is what Exploration Teams do?" Jude sighed and looked around the fair, not entirely sure how to react to discovering festivities his first day on the job. "I'd expected more...work."
"Well, far as Ah've seen, most uh th' time it is work, but there's some kinda festival-thing goin' on right now." Luka replied cheerfully, then he thumped the Charmander on the back. "So lighten up an' come on some rides with me! I wanna check out that roller coaster!"
"Pass." Jude grimaced and held up his hands in defense.
Undeterred and unfazed by the lizard's lack of enthusiasm, Luka turned to Tetris instead. "Okay then! Tetris! Yew 'n me! C'mon, this'll be fun!" And with that, he grabbed the poor Porygon before he had a chance to say anything at all, and dragged the robotic pokemon across the fairgrounds towards the rides, leaving Jude in the dust.
Rolling his eyes and shaking his head, the Charmander glanced down at the team's ten Golden Tokens he held in his claws, and after looking around for a moment he sidled off in the direction of the games, figuring he might as well try it out.

 &  &  &  &  &  &  & 
( Red & Blue & Purple & The Raven & GOOP & Jay & Vertigo & Jo(e)y )Red was trying to walk the best she could under her heavy white blanket, it dragged on the floor and over her paws, threatening to trip her with each step. Under her stitched grin was a real one, she was so winning this thing~ You see, every year, she and Blue dressed up and had their own small costume contest, the prize was usually something like a bag of berries. This year, they put together a small gift box sort of thing, and invited the whole team to dress up...in the end, the only other two to join in were Jay and Joy, but that was good enough for them.
None of them had told eachother what their costumes would be, it was going to be a big surprise when they all met!
She waited at the spot they agreed to meet at, tapping her paws as she grew impatient. Soon enough, a Sneasel came, a hot pink Scraggy with her hand fimly holding his paw, careful not to get near his claws...even if they were retracted right now, they were still pretty painful to scrape. Behind him, an odd sight...Joy riding Goop like a horse, a saddle over the pointed end on his back. Goop was going...oddly fast for a slug. There was an overly happy look on his face as he gave his usual big grin, and he seemed to shake and twitch in his place. Joy got off his "steed" as the arrived, and Red raised a brow. "Whats wrong with the Gooper?" Joy chuckled, "the pretty boy bailed out on me, so I needed a new horse" He pat Goop on the head, smiling. "I got him hopped up on sugar and coffee, he ain't no slow slug no more!" he exclaimed. Goop looked up at him, "Caaaaaaaaaa" "Oh, yeah, almost fergot" The Audino moved a paw up to grab his hat. Caramel filled the inside up to the top, and he unwrapped a square and tossed it over to Goop. The Shellos caught it in his mouth and swallowed it down whole, sugar was good, so good!
"...I don't think that's healthy for hi-" Red fell silent as a giant shadow was cast over all of them. The and the rest of them turned and looked up, their heads craning back and Blue almost falling over from how hard he was trying to see. Towering over them was probably the strangest - and scariest - sight that any of them had ever seen. A GIANT Diglett, probably over 10 feet tall, and its eyes didn't move to look down at them as it spoke, "I think I've got this in the bag~"
All of their jaws dropped in shock (except Goop, he's still sugar crazy), "Who...who...what..." a purple Piplup waved at them from the rock he was stretched out on, Purple himself sitting atop one of the rocks with a book in hand. "Duuuuuudes, whats happening?" "Jays under this costume" Red looked up at the Diglett in shock and awe, "Jay...?"
"...you overcompetitive son of a b***h!" She yelled. A laugh came from inside the Diglett, "I try~" Blue groaned, "Alright, alright, lets just get a move a move on already! The Festival's just begun!" a few more insults and laughs and they all went their separate ways, off for fun they go!
[[ Jay, Raven, Goop, and Joy are off in the gaming area. Everyone else is in the Social area ]]

 ~Sonata
Sonata seemed notably aloof for the most part as her team strolled around the festivities in a tight knit pack; the reasons for her state of distraction varying from moment to moment. Although it may not look it, she was truly enjoying herself; her disposition expressing the extent to which she was taking in her surroundings. Thankfully she was in the company that she was, no one else but those close to her able to pick up on the fact that she was in a state of utmost amusement rather than displeasure. By looks alone that much could not be told.
"If we have the time, I would like to see the rides."
She caught a piece of conversation that was shared amongst the rest of her team and attempted to add her own two cents in accordingly. Her wording perhaps a bit off in the sense that she didn't want to sound like she actually wished to ride the rides for it would be churlish and below someone of her standing. Over the roar of the crowds a chirping music box tone from a nearby carousel met her ears and promptly proceeded to elicit these desires of hers however. Of course she wouldn't simply wander off alone or drag her entire team along with her for that matter. Normally in situations like this she would stick to Nik for company but it was safe to assume in his ghostly state that he would not be partaking in any bodily functions such as enjoying rides anytime soon. Not to say that he wouldn't do the favor for her; but the Absol knew well enough not to burden him with such things. She also wouldn't have minded Frost's companionship alone for awhile, but once again, his time, especially considering his guildmaster status, would be far to precious to waste on her whim. She shrugged off all of her desires with this line of thought and retreated back to her mental bliss.

   Reginald & Desdemona & Anastasia
"What." Desdemona looked down at her Captain, "Are you doing?"
The canine shifted his position and popped another kernel into his maw, "If you watch carefully, the people happen to loose their posessions. Its quite interesting, if I say so myself; that last guy lost his sunglasses, spare change, and, I believe, half of his lunch." He chuckled as Desdemona turned away, a sour expression on her face. She froze suddenly, staring ahead with wide eyes. Instantly, she screamed and ran away the opposite direction.
"Ruuuun! Its a giant Diglett! It's going to eat all of us-- Eeeeek!" Anastasia watched as her embarassing co capt. ran away, flailing like a rubber... thing. She sighed as she looked down at her own badly made costume, it made her look like she had no body! Ugh, she was so scrawny and tall and... oh well, that couldn't be helped. She should have gone as a pumpkin...  Sirius & Damon
"Screw this." A rather clumsy walking bathtub waddled in, clinging to the shadows cast by the concession stands.
"this is all your fault, Sirius." He huffed, glaring daggers at the accused equine.
"Now, Kingcrest--"
"Damon!--"
"Damon." Sirius corrected himself, "Going as a potted plant would hardly make a difference."
"Um, well, I would have greenery and stuff covering my face." The cross cub pointed out. "I could have passed for not wearing a costume at all; I'm a freak anyways." Damon grumbled, fluffing out his bat wings and swishing his tail for emphasis.
"Now, Damon, we are not mutants," Sirius started.
"Whatever. Go get yourself a soda or something." He pouted before dashing away awkwardly. Damn, he hated his costume.
Sirius shook his head sadly. Damon was such a child. He pulled his reins and stepped back a few, lashing them on the fake horse's neck.
"Hyah!" He said half-heartedly before galloping forward. ((Desdemona has fled to the Gaming area -- Sirius, Damon, Reg, and Anastasia are all in the Social area... feel free to strike up a conversation with me ;w wink )

    Era & Phione & Rivia & Eon & Irilyss
Phione blinked in surprise as he felt a slight pull behind him although he knew no one was there. Eon had come up to walk with him after a moment, subduing the flamboyance of the Phione's exuberance, but in no way dulling it. Turning around to see what had caused the disturbance, the little Water Type found himself looking straight toward a very familiar Gardevoir. "Anu!" he cheered, his voice as bright as ever at the sight of the Psychic. He'd started to grow accustomed to Anues showing up out of nowhere every now and then, something that he was thoroughly pleased with. In another moment Phione was by the hovering Gardevoir's side, jumping up and down to try and match Anues' level. He jumped so quickly it eventually caused him to jump a bit too far and topple over onto his face. Momentarily stunned, he sat up and blinked in a startled manner before breaking out into a grin and giggling slightly at his own fall. "Anu Anu!" he said brightly, "We go on rides?" The child's face was hopeful, a shining excitement in his eyes. Anues was with him at the festival! It was going to be a great day.
Eon noted the Gardevoir's arrival with mutual acceptance as he frequently did. He didn't know Anues personally, but some members of the Team, Ethfael especially, seemed to know the peculiar Psychic rather well. Phione's excitement was easy to catch, bringing a smile to the male Pikachu's face as he watched. Phione would be fine with Anues, of that he was certain, so clearly there was no need of him here. "I'll leave you to it then," he said to Anues with a respectful dip of the head, "If you need me I'm going to go check out what's going on over at the Event Stage." He smiled mildly and then gave Phione a wave, "See you later!" With those parting words he turned and headed off in the other direction, curious to see what all was going on around this festival.
Irilyss looked up with surprise as she felt the gentle touch of another Psychic on her own. She glanced about as if expecting someone to be there out of force of habit before darkly reminding herself that things weren't like that, not anymore. The voice though, she knew it to be Anues' immediately and it was all she could do to stifle a sigh. It would be impolite to refuse, but the conversation would be troublesome. Ah well. We could meet up if you would like, she responded, I'm taking Rivia to the Ferris Wheel currently, but otherwise I'm free. The female Gardevoir looked down at the Sandshrew beside her, and in one fluid motion swept the child up in her arms to carry her. Rivia seemed slightly perturbed to find her legs not carrying her any longer, but eventually seemed rather mollified, sticking a paw in her mouth to suck on as she was carried.

Aries------Scarlet-------Alfred--------Ivy
Ivy couldn't stop smiling like a fool, her face was actually beginning to hurt from the effort. Seeing Skye again, she hadn't imagined it would be so soon. She'd been devastated when her cousin and her family had gone missing. Uncle Solaris had simply explained it as survival instincts. They'd fled in order to try and stay alive with the coming conflict, but they'd returned...why?
She wanted to ask but felt it wasn't her place. The Glaceon gave a brief nod to the Eevee's inquiries. "There was a carnival not too long ago. I didn't get to stay for long though."
Mostly since no one had been there to have fun with. It was boring playing on your own. At least this time she had Skye!
The line advanced steadily forward and the Glaceon gave her cousin a light nudge to get her moving toward the Ferris Wheel before answering her.
"Yes, they tend to be rather loud. You should see the streets near the marketplace. They are far worse."
The Poochyena's head slowly nodded, he felt fine. Why wouldn't he? Everything had been rather peaceful lately. The earlier confrontation in the library had all but been forgotten and aside from the nightmares things had resumed being slow and boring.
"That sounds nice." The dog replied, tail beginning a quick series of wags.
Scarlet watched the two with a smile, the dragon's eyes narrowed thoughtfully as she lifted her tail to give the transformed Gardevoir a gentle shove forward. "Go, go. Have fun you two, but stay out of trouble."Alfred didn't seem to be resisting her efforts to make him have a good time, quite the opposite, the small dog's expression held little confusion to the fact that he was very much pleased to see Era again and enjoying the festival would be more amusing with her around.
"Good bye, Scarlet." The Gardevoir said quickly, solidifying the decision to leave and the dragon grinned in reply before giving a slow assenting nod.
With that the Psychic turned back to Era though his expression shifted to one that was less enthused and more curious. He wondered...could he?
The Poochyena raised a paw to lightly tap Era's shoulder and a white glow started from the bottom of the paw he'd made contact with and slowly spread along his arm before obscurring the rest of the small dog's form in a sudden flash of illumination.
The glow faded faster than it had appeared and a white Pikachu blinked back at Era with a smile. Having copied the form from her, it was an almost exact match in both size and appearance aside from the fact Alfred had the tail most commonly found on male Pikachu.
Even the wings were copied, though they lacked the luster of Era's own and were a faded green. It seemed they were mostly for show on the transformed Gardevoir anyways as they didn't look solid enough to maintain flight.
"After you." The white Pikachu stated quietly with a nod.

 x   Anues -- Alice -- FlorAnues eyed Phione for a moment as the water type came running, he personally coming to a halt for the little water type as Irilyss responded. He did nothing more than smile slightly and allow his drifted attention to fall back on Phione, whose excitement suddenly died down completely upon his fall. The psychic crouched down by Phione’s side and rested his hand on the child’s head once he fixed himself upright, Anues’ own attention seeking out Irilyss again which had him enter a few second silence. His thought was quickly broken as his right ear gave a solid twitch at Eon’s voice, and the Gardevoir peered back at him with a nod. “Will bear that in mind, enjoy yourself.” Simple, but to the point. The Gardevoir gave another glance out into the open before finally repeating Phione’s question to himself. “… Of course.” He finally looked back down at Phione before picking him up and continuing on his own way. Irilyss seemed to be in the same general area, but if he recalled, such places with rides weren’t small. Not that it mattered for the time being. For now, Phione merely dragged him wherever he wanted to go.
“…Are you sure you’re ready to be out?” “Yeah, I’m fine. I’d hate to miss events like this~” A duo’s conversation drifted off of a teleport, leaving them walking side by side into the Guild’s event. The Kirlia’s evolution left her feeling like a stranger in part, but it was accepted more than it was rejected. The seemingly giant, troubled looking Roserade beside her, standing at 4’0 had been on the team for some time now, but preferably stayed in the team room. Regardless, she and Alice grew close. This was settling unlike all else they seemed to be dealing with, so Flor tagged along willingly, if only for Alice. She had been a bit off from her ditzy, cheery self, but still herself all the time. Regardless, the actions kept Flor close.
Alice soon came to a halt and stared off blankly; her ears rose slightly at a familiar feeling. "Oh, Anu's here." "Is he?" Flor blinked and glanced off in the direction of Alice's stare. Needless to say, she saw nothing. Psychics were strange like that. Always sensing other beings they knew even if they weren't in view. Needless to say, the duo popped up some time after his leave.
Flor turned back to the newly evolved Gardevoir with a smile then, and Alice immediately looked back at her. "He doesn't know yet, does he? I'm sure you'll bump into each other sooner or later." Alice smiled then, nodding reassuringly before continuing on her way with Flor close behind.

Era & Phione Era's smiled brightened considerably as her invitation was accepted, and she laughed slightly at the wagging of Alfred's Poochyena tail. It was really rather adorable, though she wouldn't say that to his face. She nodded an affirmative to Scarlet's words, "Will do," she said to the Flygon cheerfully, "I'm sure we'll have a great time." She waved a goodbye to the Flygon and was about to suggest that they head off to do something when suddenly Alfred tapped a paw on her shoulder. What happened next startled the Pikachu considerably, watching the glow envelop Alfred's body so that she couldn't see the Poochyena form anymore. In another moment she found herself staring at a Pikachu that looked like a pale image of...well her. "You look just like me..." she said in a mixture of awe and surprise at his Transform, having figured out what it was by now. His smile though brought on one of the Pikachu's own and she allowed her puzzlement to slip away and be replaced with a happy grin that played about her lips. "Alright, let's go!" she said happily, taking Alfred's paw in her own and pulling him along by the hand. Her excitement was as giddy as that of a child's; she adored festivals because they always made everyone so happy, herself included, and she wasn't afraid to show it. Era led him over to the area of the festival where all the attractions were, the sights and smells of the carnival quite overpowering. She looked around from the food stands that delicious smells wafted from, to a place where dancing appeared to be going on, to the lines of games that filled the midway, to the tall Ferris Wheel surrounded by other rides; eyes alight with excitement. "Where would you like to go first Alfred?" she asked, looking back at him with a smile, "I'm fine with anything." She didn't know what he liked to do at these types of things, so best to play it safe and let him decide.
"Yay!" Phione said exuberantly, smiling from ear to ear as he was picked up by the Gardevoir hugging Anues tightly in a gesture of thanks. As he was carried over in the direction of the rides, the little Water Type's eyes caught an oddly out of place building in all black. It looked old and really strange, and Phione wondered what it was for. "Anu?" he asked, pointing over toward the strange structure, "What that?" It looked really strange, and he wasn't quite sure what to think of it, every now and then Pokemon would go in, but he didn't see any coming out on this side. "Is it fun? We go?"

  Skye & Frost & Nikolas & Kenna & Kaiyou & IstasSkye smiled, flicking her ears forward as she listened. It was so difficult to hear over the noisy crowd. She hoped it would be quieter up on the ferris wheel.
She was happy to hear Ivy's voice again, though. In some ways, the sweet little Glaceon was a lot more like family than her own sister. She was related to both, but Ivy treated her like a person, instead of questioning everything she did. It felt nice, to have that respect sometimes.
"That's a shame, Ivy. I'm glad you're getting to enjoy this one, though." She replied honestly, pushing thoughts of her sister to the back of her mind. Harumi wasn't acting like a sister should, at the moment, but she couldn't let that take away her joy for the evening. She could have fun with Ivy.
She followed the guiding nudge, trotting forward with the shifting line-up, and gradually reaching the front. She was so close to being on the ride that she could feel her fur prickling with excitement just watching the slow, sweeping movements of the great machine. It was a new experience, and she really wasn't very familiar with the technology involved.
"Ugh. I'd bet. A lot of people are very pushy in such places, aren't they? At least here, everyone's just having fun," she added, agreeing with the older girl. There was probably a lot to learn about the way life in the guilds worked. She was familiar with markets only slightly, but the ones she'd been to were very noisy.
"Oh!" she suddenly noted in surprise, her mouth opening into a small "o". Her voice still soft, she nudged her cousin's shoulder with a paw. "I think it's our turn, now?" She hoped she was right. It seemed that way, to her. Glancing over at Ivy, she waved her fluffy tail with excitement.
Frost glanced over at the dark-furred Absol, smiling warmly. She always had a fondness for such simple things, but she'd never admit it. She was too proud, and too proper. "I'm sure we can work something out, Sonata," he assured her, padding along beside his friends.
He was fully-grown now, and certainly a little larger than most, for his age and species. It was certainly a good thing that he was used to smaller Pokemon moving about, or he had a feeling that he could be quite destructive without meaning to. 'Klutz would be a horrid ability for an Arcanine,' he joked internally.
The massive silver-blue hound seemed to glance around to his other side, where Kenna trotted in silence. She'd filled out a little, and he couldn't help but feel glad for that fact. She'd been so scrawny, just a few months ago.
"'Could probably get away with it. "Taking the time to connect to your guild members", or some other cheesy nonsense." The Ninetales was very matter-of-fact with her friend and Guildmaster, not really bothering to relax that much. She'd much rather be at home, or terrorizing some small fluffy thing. It was a little more her style.
Frost rolled his eyes. "Like I said, we'll find a way." He emphasized his words carefully, raising an eyebrow at Kenna. The Fire-type had such an attitude, though he found it pretty amusing, himself.
Nikolas ignored his companions, a little, zoning out of their inner conversations. It just didn't interest him as much as all the goings on around him. Children laughing, sugary sweets and delicious pastries on display at every stall. Stuffed toys and various games and prizes everywhere. He could see the outline of the ferris wheel, so far into the distance from where he floated. The roller coaster roared overhead, the noise rumbling like thunder in his ears.
Gods, he loved festivals. There were so many people, and so much to do. Best of all, with everyone in costume, he didn't seem as out-of-place. He looked like just another Pokemon in costume for the celebrations, not some poor freak who was literally falling apart at the seams.
It was kind of a sad thought, but he didn't let it get to him. He couldn't, or he'd spend every day of his death being miserable. He could hardly call it life, being a ghost. It was the closest he could get.
He floated off, debating on whether or not to buy a bunch of freshly-baked pastries, or a set of candy apples.... oh, but there was cotton candy!
He could feel his mouth watering just thinking about it.
Roughly a few minutes later, he returned with a massive paper bag of goodie and prizes behind him, slurping a cup of ice water. He could behave..... almost.
Kaiyou walked along, the little sleepy Pichu girl clinging to his chest. He supported the tiny body in the crook of his arm, walking along as though it was entirely normal. It still felt a little surprising, but somehow it just came naturally to carry the sweet little creature. She was hardly a pain to deal with, at the moment, at least.
In his other hand, he held an ice cream cone, licking the delicious dairy sweet with some form of contentment. He could see the half-lidded stare of the weary Pichu he carried, and had a feeling that she was as hungry, if not more so, than he was.
Cautious not to startle her, he shifted so that she could reach the ice cream cone. Tiny paws outstretched and took the ice cream, giving it an experimental lick.
She squealed quietly, wiggling her feet and licking at the treat with a new excitement. "It's so good~" she informed him happily, her voice light and girly, like chiming bells. She was definitely younger than Skye or Azra, Kai knew that much.
Her eyes were wide, now, with a mixture of excitement and surprise. Apparently he'd found her new favourite food. He figured that she'd likely had ice cream before, tho- "....What is it?"
That had to be the cutest, most naive question he'd ever been asked. "It's ice cream. One of the sweetest treats out there," he answered quietly, his voice low and calm. "You've never had it before, Istas?"
"Snowy."
Kai paused, looking at her strangely.
"That's my nickname. People mostly call me Snowy. I think they're just ascared they'll say Istas wrong." Her voice piped up a note higher as she spoke, as though she were older, and talking about children. Kai had to chuckle, still smiling as she curled back up against him, eating her new ice cream treat.

A small orange and blue Pokemon toddled along into the fair grounds with little pause, despite no knowing where he was going he walked with a steady trot and a look of confidence across his childish face. The Pichu paused in his step, making sure he kept his ridiculously long tail erect in the air to avoid having it drag in the dirt. His ears swiveled from side to side as he noted the various sounds of the festival. It was loud, the roar of the rides and the cries of the Pokemon were near deafening but he didn't seem to mind and his nose quickly took the lead from his hearing to draw him towards a stall where he smelt the most delightful thing. It was sweet, but not so that it made him wrinkle his nose. The stall itself was cold, he felt the chill eminating from it as he peered upward at the window and waved a paw to try and catch the attendants attention. His tiny voice didn't carry far and his attempts were in vain until he spotted a large blue Pokemon ambling along not too far away.
With a bound he dashed along after the oddly-colored Swampert to tap the creature on the leg and claim his attention. He had the smell on him too, he'd been to that box that sold the sweets so he could reach it and get him one too!
It was rather dull here without anyone to talk to, Aries was only mildly annoyed that Fiorin had ditched him but his displeasure was mostly directed at the festival itself. None of these rides seemed fun for just one Pokemon to ride alone. The Skitty rested his paws on the table and grumbled incoherently until he spotted an Emolga dart by with a Porygon in tow. Oh, what was this? Prospective friends? Yes, he believed so. It didn't take the pink feline long before he'd jumped off the bench and trotted along behind them waiting for a chance to cut in with a friendly meow of 'Hello!'.
"Hey there, wanna ride the coaster with me!?" Okay, that was less friendly and more 'please be friends with me, I'm so aloonnnneeee'. Desperation worked sometimes, especially since half the time he was mistaken for a girl and well aware he could use that to manipulate others to do his bidding. Mwahahaaandstuff.
The male Pikachu's tail swished lightly from side to side, so he'd gotten the form right. Well, more or less. Still couldn't get the coloring proper but whatever worked. He was just happy being able to remember how to Transform to begin with so he wasn't going to nitpick the details.
Alfred allowed himself to be dragged along, perfectly content letting Era decide where they were going until she directed the question at him. He paused, unsure, and tapped his Pikachu paws together hesitantly as he glanced around. His eyes landed on a rickety old house and his curiousity quickly overwhelmed whatever common sense he had.
"What's that~?" The transformed Gardevoir bounded away from Era with the mindset to explore this building. Sure it looked scary, but that was just the outside! Maybe it was nicer inside?
You couldn't judge by appearances after all. Tolin, Barcel and Raith were all very imposing but nice guys. Though Barcel wasn't exactly the nicest anyways he was better than he first appeared as and was at least nice to Scarlet.
The white Pikachu slipped through the door with the intent to look around a bit before looking to see if Era followed, but didn't get that far when a scream sounded from within the depths of the structure. Alfred jumped, giving a squeak of alarm, and bolted off in a random direction which unfortunately wasn't the direction the door was.

She had thought she would spend the festival alone but she was happy to find she'd been incorrect. Ivy couldn't quite hold still the entire time in the line and she impatiently danced from paw to paw as she responded to her cousin's comments.
"Oh yes, it's wonderful so far." The Glaceon purred, nodding along as she motioned about with a paw. "I played some games and now I'm going to ride the ferris wheel with my cousin, it's going just splendid!" Her paws clapped in delight and at the declaration it was their turn her clapping paused briefly in a joyful shock before she clapped once more.
She nudged Skye back gently with a shove of her own as the attendant of the ride unlatched the gate before them and swept the two into the carriage to wait while the other Pokemon clambered into their own.
"This is so exciting~" The Glaceon squealed, taking a seat and immediately placing her paws to the glass of the window to peer out. "I bet you can see for forever up at the top!"
Diane rolled her eyes as she waited in line alongside her captain. The Purrloin wasn't so much annoyed at Lynne as she was at their guild in general though his comment on his life expectancy earned him a few furious swipes to the face with her claws.
"You aren't allowed to talk like that, dipshit." This was her way of showing affection as well as ensuring Lynne knew his place. He may be guildmaster, but Diane ran the show for the most part. Despite that though she did have the highest of respect for the sickly Deerling.
Following along behind Cedric, the green-ringed Umbreon flattened her ears as the noise grew steadily louder upon their arrival to the festival. She allowed her eyes to widen in awe of the lights and various rides moving around at such a rapid rate she felt her mind reeling at the idea of watching them for any longer. This was too loud, this was too maddening. This...what...that smell...?
Serenade lifted her head and took a whiff of the scents mingling in the air and her stomach growled in approval. The Umbreon took a step back behind the Persian but continued to sniff about. She was cautious of this strange place, but overall seemingly unafraid.
"What's....going on here? Is this the guild?"

 :: ::  ::  ::  ✗ Basilisk :: Ren :: Jonah :: Louvell :: Senka ✗"You know I don't like crowds"
"jat up, it vill be good vor you"
Ren and Basilisk bickered as they walked, the ghost had convinced him to come out here and it was already going bad. "Vezides, I have a vriend I vant you to meet. She'z goot, tough vighter, I offered her a zpot on ze team" Basilisk glared up at her, "You know I don't like people" He hissed. "The room is getting too crowded for my tastes anyways. It was okay with only you and Jonah taking up space, kinda crowded with Louvell, and adding a fifth is just pushing the line" He liked quiet, spacey areas. Like the saying, two is a party, three is a crowd...four is a psychopath?
"I got it covered. She vill not be ztaying vith us, I have arranged vor her to ztay in her own place" as if she would test that clearly marked boundary of his, she was smarter than that! "She and all ozer recruzes vill ztay zere vrom now on, zough zey have ze key to our room and ve have eztablished comunicazions vith zem. I'm ztill inztalling it and tezting it out, vut ve can call zem and zey can call us at any time" Basilisk looked...rather impressed actually. "All that?" "jes" "...nice. I like that, this works out quite nicely" she rolled her eyes, "I zid it to ztop your conztant vitching"
He was about to throw a comeback her way when they spotted Jonah waving at them, one arm on Louvell as he tried to keep the hotdog in check seeing as he was the only member that was almost immune to him. Plus, it sorta was his responsibility now...but he was alright with that, Lou was kinda scared of him (though he would never admit it) and kept his distance. "Hello guys~" Lou said this as he gave a wide grin, sharp teeth were all that you could see. It didn't look like he was really just trying to be nice. Jonah gave him an annoyed look, but said nothing. Instead he gestured over to his side, a hooded figure stood, her smile was not visible though the bright blue eyes under the shadow over her face had a bend at the bottom, they gave a sort of gleeful look.
"She said she was looking for you, Ren." the Archen turned to face the cloaked Pokemon, "Nice costume by the way". She cocked her head to the side, eyes taking on a confused look as she stroked the newly-patched up surface of her hood. "Cos...costume?" she mumbled, what did he mean by that? This was normal attire, of course, couldn't he see! She shook her head, looking up at the spectre. "Ren! It's nice to see you again, after all this time!" "Ah, jes, it iz nice. Zanks vor joining, jou vill not regret" The hooded Pokemon seemed to nod, "Thank you for letting me. I didn't think you would have said yes when I asked, and I am in need of a safe place to stay...I am in debt to you, really" Ren smiled,"Iz nozing, really"
Basil put a hand out towards the cloaked figure, "I'm Basilisk, your captain" He introduced. Her eyes turned cheery again and she grabbed hold of his hand, her long sleeves going over his own hands to keep her covered.
Cold hands. She had really, really cold hands.
"Senka, its very nice to meet you!" she said. She clapped her hands, "I'm going to go look around, I'll be meeting you all back here?" Jonah scratched at the back of his head, "Yeah, thats a good idea, we'll meet back here...actually, if you don't mind, could you take Lou with you?" She nodded, "Yes, no problem!" she looked over at the Poochyena, who was picking at his teeth with a sharp claw. "Come along now, child" he yawned, stretched, and then began to walk away. Whatever, as long as they let him loose at the food place when this was all over.
Shortly afterwards, Jonah departed from the group, leaving Ren and Basilisk alone together.
[[ Senka and Louvell are off at the gaming area, everyone else is in the social area <3 ]]

Skye & Frost & Nikolas & Kenna & Kaiyou & IstasKai glanced downward in surprise, feeling a soft, furry paw press to the back of his leg. Standing beside his ankle was a small, orange and blue Pokemon. He was rather unusual, in appearance, and Kaiyou realized that he wasn't sure if he was naturally born in such colours, or if he wore a costume of sorts. He seemed to be a very curious little Pichu, though.
He knelt down, still holding Istas firmly in his arms.
The younger, smaller Pichu ducked down nervously, hiding all but the swirl of her fur and pointed ears. Her ice cream cone was only half finished, her little paws holding it carefully above her, despite her shy behavior. She didn't want to drop the frozen treat by mistake.
"Hey there; did you need something?" Kai asked quietly, tilting his head curiously. How he managed to attract all sorts of small, fuzzy Electric-types was beyond him. He was a Water-Ground-type, for Arceus' sake. He was the polar opposite of the two children he now crouched with.
Istas' ears twitched sweetly, sensing that Kai found the newcomer not to be scary. Tentatively, she poked her head up for a moment to take another lick of her ice cream. Then, without hesitation, she ducked her head back down, tail sticking straight up in the air. She didn't have to actually see the stranger to know that strangers were scary.
Skye let out a sharp squeak as she was shuffled into the carriage, sitting rather ungracefully on her rump in the middle of the floor. The door shut behind them with a click, and it was firmly fastened shut from the outside.
Skye flattened hear ears. Sure, the window was open, but she didn't really appreciate being thrown in. The attendant was likely just in a hurry, she supposed. She'd have to forgive him his impatience.
Leaping up onto the seat next to her cousin, she placed her paws on the window frame, peering out. The glass was perfectly clean and clear, though their breath fogged up little patches on the pane. The lights outside were bright and colourful as ever, but the noise was dimmed slightly by the surrounding carriage.
The carriage rocked ever so slightly as the ferris wheel shifted, another load of Pokemon being placed into their own seats on the ride. She felt her heart flutter with excitement. They were higher up, now. Soon, they'd be sweeping over the top of the ride, and enjoying the view from above.
"I wonder how high this thing goes?" The Eevee quipped curiously, glancing over. "I can't wait to see what the lights and everyone looks like from the top. Like an explosion of colourful stars!"
She was beginning to feel a little more excited, and her speech was even less formal than before. The more excited she got, the more she seemed like a child. It was the case with anyone, really, and it just showed a little more on calm Pokemon like Skye. In any case, she had to agree with Ivy; it was going to be splendid!
"Games? Did you win anything interesting~?" the little Eevee asked aloud, curious as to her cousin's luck at carnival games.
