Eisheth grinned as the first round of the auction was announced. It was a funny game of domination and submission, and that was even more funny to watch some of her kin participating in the event: perhaps, some of the horsemen seriously missed the Hard Hand the discipline of their old Home.
The alchemist, however, held a very particular interest in the auction: she'd be patient and wait for now. Later... yeah, later.
Eisheth looked around watching the public in amusement.

Riley's voice was coming from somewhere. She wasn't visible, but nobody needed to see her, anyway. The students that were on stage, up for auction, were the only ones that mattered. Besides, the sound of Riley's voice meant you probably didn't want to see her right now, anyway."Welcome, bidders. Please enjoy the event, as we begin the bidding for our first three auctionees. First up, we have Frost in the Storm. A second year from the colder regions of our world, Frost is well versed in fourteen different languages as well as several non-verbal methods of communcation. He can grow to twenty feet at will, and he has the power to turn anything he touches to gold. The bidding will start at 1 silver seed.
Next, we have Hadiyya. Hadiyya's body can bend into any shape she sees, including hexagons. She spins silk from her fingertips, and her horns are actually made of jello. Bidding will start at 1 silver seed.
Last up in this group is Yuzhi. Yuzhi is our first horseman auctionee, and she is actually seven thousand years old. The amount of knowledge she has built up in that time is extravagant. Yuzhi can jump over ten story buildings in one bound, and she also sings beautifully. Bidding will start at 1 silver seed."
BIDDING IS NOW OPEN

An auction. That sounded intriguing. Tseng was going to go on his merry way before he heard a very particular name being listed off.
"WHAT!?"
How and why would his sister sign up for such a thing. AND STARTING PRICE OF 1 SILVER? NONSENSE. Quickly, he scrambled over to the auction area, seeing her standing there.
"10 SILVER ON MY DEAR YUYU!"
He then shot a dramatic look to everyone else as if daring them to go up against him.
TSENG IS BIDDING 10 SEEDS ON YUZHI!

It was, literally, the look Tseng shot that made Freya want to do it. She didn't even know who Yuzhi was, but then again, she wouldn't have bid on anyone else other than the adorable little one because oh dear gods adorable tiny ghoul. She started counting her seeds, and then, just for fun, and probably to mess with that boil, she dared to bid.

It didn't take long before someone had stepped up to the challenge. Puffing up to try and make himself look bigger, Tseng gave the valkyrie a dirty look.
"YOU DARE CHALLENGE ME? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. THIRTY SEEDS!" he proclaimed while pointing epicly at his sister.

Zhiqiang cackled when Yuzhi was brought forward, looking especially amused when Tseng immediately called out a bid for his little sister. Perhaps with a little effort, he could drive up the price for the little horsewoman? ...Hmmm.
"YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THAT SHE'S TINY AND PORTABLE," Zhi yelled out, lips split into a wide grin as he provided this (in his opinion) very important fact, "SHE'S SO SMALL THAT YOU COULD CARRY HER LIKE A FOOTBALL IF YOU WANTED!"
Aw yeah look at those bids going up.

Freya didn't like dirty looks. Instead of bidding again, she walked over to Tseng, and smacked him over the head.
"I likes a good challenge, but don't looks at me like that, little boil. This is supposed teh be fun!" She grinned, showing far too many teeth, and pointed at her teeth. "See? FUN. HAVE SOME."
Then she let him have the high bid. For now. Besides, there were lots of others she wanted to bid on before the night was through.

Yuzhi was standing up front alright. Proud, regal, and very angry. Zhiqiang had talked her into tagging along with him to this little event that the denizens seem to be holding and the next thing she knew she was being signed off into an auction.
She didn't recall why or how he did it. Yuzhi only knew that she wanted Grasshopper's head on a silver platter, with tiny little chocolate covered grasshoppers as garnishings around it. To devour.
Startling out of her reverie as people began to bid. She stared at her brother recognizing him instantly and then Yuzhi started at the other person she did not know...
When Zhiqiang spoke up she let out a very small growl and her small hands clenched into fists.
Murdermurdermurder. She was staring directly at Zhi trying to make his head explode from where she stood.

Tseng looked a little indignant as Freya smacked him on the head.
"Little boy! HAH! I am easily six times your age! If not more! I am no mere child!" he said with a rather loud huff, turning away partially and crossing his arms with his head held high. He didn't grin back. Not just yet. He was too busy looking like he was offended.
Good thing too, otherwise he probably would have made some sort of remark to Zhi.

Zhi stared right back at Yuzhi, the grin never leaving his face. After a good second or two of staring at one another passed, he lifted a hand and enthusiastically waved (or rather, flopped one excessively long sleeve) at her.
(☉‿☉)/))
It seemed like he was trying to encourage her.

She narrowed her eyes at Zhiqiang. His head wasn't exploding yet. Yuzhi was most put out by this turn of events. She tilted her head away from him and sniffed. The small horseman was probably not going to forgive him for a long while.
A good long while.
Possibly forever.

Behind the stage, waiting patiently (somewhat) for his time on the auction block, Fai was playing with a strange device that someone had thrown into the trash. It was a cube made up of smaller cubes, each with colors on several of their sides. It was the most entertaining little toy! He had been playing with it--doing patterns and various other things--for almost two days now, and was even distracted to the point where he had yet to ask about refreshments.
And smoothie machines.
He did pause to wonder who would buy him. Then he dismissed the thought from his mind and went back to playing.

Shaheen was at the auction, standing near the back with her arms crossed over her chest with a smirk plastered on her very smug looking face. She had no intention on actually bidding on anybody in the auction, but she did intend to watch, so as not to miss her incredibly hard won and well deserved achievement. She was still feeling sore, worn, and weary from the earlier battle but it was going to be so worth it.
She could barely contain her excitement.
She also reminded herself that she might need to sneak backstage and make sure a certain somebody remained unconscious, lest he wake up and make his escape before the fun could begin.

Lizzy took one look at the cute Yuzhi on stage, sparkled, and then raised her hand straight up into the air; the whole idea of auctioning off a student - and horsemen - reminded her of a similar event back when she was a first year, and although her heart was still heavy - with regret and all that unhappy stuff - she wanted to get out of it... Which was how she found herself here, bidding on someone.
"50 seeds please," She beamed, "For Yuzhi!"

Shik was still passed the hell out backstage with a nasty bump to his head, though at least someone had the decency to get rid of the bag he had been brought in not long before the auctioning began.
Gods damn you, Shaheen.
