Ah.. well, it looked like none of his high school friends were here. Brian was quickly losing the point of being out in this festival at all if he wasn't going to shove a tomato down someone's blouse or whatever! Because that would just be awkward if he didn't actually know the person he was doing it to - though Keegan was there.. Ah, hell, Brian wasn't going to interrupt a father/son night. So, he waved to his mom and, when she didn't respond, he waved to his uncle - no, wait, he wasn't responding either. ....Yeah, he was just going to go home.
~Exit Brian~
Shortly after the brunette left, another brunette popped in afterward in the very bikini she wanted to wear to Beach Dau but never got the chance! Well, Summer had ended and Fall had already started to chill the air, but Vi was more comfortable with this level of clothing anyway. In fact, she was ecstatic on the chance to show off to cute men liiiiike- oh, Xeiro was shirtless. Oh. This was going to be a wonderful day. She chuckled quietly to herself before heading off towards the only other set of people she knew just enough to hate into friendship. Or eventually, she had to introduce herself to the newest set of strippers first! Quinn and Rose, right?
((Sorry for not responding to the rest of you yet. =C Just not feeling it. Worst excuse ever, but, I don't have anything else. unu Sorry! We'll be starting T-fest shortly, though. ))

Lunesca was super, super pumped, even though she still didn't quite understand exactly what in the world was going on. Unfortunately, Finnian wasn't really the best captain in the world. But, she did get the gist of it. So, she grabbed up her share of the tomatoes as fast as she could and eyed the crowd of people, all as new targets. She was no longer in a crowd of people that could potentially be her friends. No, she had instantly been transported into a world where everyone was her enemy! She'd just have to hope that Finnian and Tshila stayed out of her line of vision, or else they might be getting the good ole throw right to the face! Oh, she wasn't dumb enough to throw into the face of her enemy, but she would if she had to. THIS MEANT WAR! With a big juicy tomato in hand, she wound back her arm and aimed for an unfortunate woman that had strode right into her line of vision. That woman was none other than Vi Triggs. 9/10

Todd was ecstatic when he heard that the festival was starting. He ran and grabbed up the 10 tomatoes designated to him and looked around feverishly. He was trying to remember the years passed and see if he could spot anyone that had been a problem before. He recognized some of the people outside of the festival, but that wasn't what mattered now. Now was the time to be as serious as possible and get ready to throw before he could wind up getting out! He looked over at his teammates one last time, praying to the goddess that they wouldn't screw this up for him. All he could think of was how many women would be throwing themselves at him if he was crowned the victor! He got a good grip on the tomato, and honed in on someone that he did remember, even if they had been on a team before. This was no longer about friendships. This was about women! Surely his old pal would understand. He swung his arm back and threw it towards Yoakim LeBlanc. 9/10

Xeiro had been a bit disappointed when June never showed up, but thankfully someone else had come along! In fact, it was his old gym buddy, Yoakim! He greeted the man with a slap to the back as quickly as possible because it was time to start the festival! He wanted to be kind to the new addition to the team, especially since the man had been gone from the island for awhile. But, he was much more worried about the frenzy of the festival, and he was sure he would understand. He rushed over and grabbed up his tomatoes and was very pleased to be a bit higher than most of the crowd. It allowed him to be able to see more people than he could hope if he was, say, that very short woman over there. He pulled back his good arm and threw the tomato towards the first person that stood out to him, Catrina Murrow9/10

Zelynity had been thoroughly pleased when the sounds of the festival had started. She didn't want to put up with all of this talk anymore. She was a woman of action! A woman of action that was ready to finally get her victory! She was so sick of always going home with her head hung low, and her heart weighed down with all of the mistakes that she knew she had made. There was a time to be worried about losing, but that was not this day! She gave a quick thumbs up to the members of her team and dashed over to the tomatoes to grab up her share. She turned to the crowd, and looked at each of them in hopes to see the weaknesses plastered across their faces. She spotted one young man that looked entirely out of place and she simply just did not have time for that. So, she wound back her arm and threw it straight at her target, Keegan Santana. 9/10

Keegan had an even littler idea of what was happening when the havoc began. He looked over to his new teammate and shrugged, "I guess we should get some tomatoes?" He then turned to grab some for himself and placed a pile in front of Sani. "Here you go, little man. These are yours." He then looked at the crowd of people, and watched as they began throwing at each other. Well, if he was anything, he was a follower. So, he placed a good grip on the tomato and wound his arm back to throw it at someone. He just happened to choose someone relatively close to his positioning because he knew that his throw wasn't so strong. He closed his eyes and flung it as hard as he could at Murren McMahan. 9/10

What kind of shitty place was this where a man could only stand here holding his tomatoes for a few seconds before there was one being flung towards him? He sucked in a deep breath of air and watched his world flash before his eyes. He had just wanted to come and enjoy the day with his son! He didn't want to have to get out already! This wasn't fun at all! He didn't have time to feel the full fury of this moment, nor did he even have time to tell Sani that he loved him when he dove out of the way, hoping that he could stay around for a few more rounds. What fun was it to just lose already?! 9/10

Yoakim was about to greet Tatyana and Umi and make some small talk and catch up on events, all while giving side glances toward Jacob, who had yet to say anything, probably because he was just that happy that Yoakim was back to his brain was overloading, when suddenly, he felt someone grabbing him and pulling him away and shoving him with Xiero and Alex and announcing that they were a team. At least he knew the two of them but - wait. Team? The tomato festival was starting? But but but... he hadn't signed up! HE STILL HAD HIS SUIT ON. OH GOD HE STILL HAD HIS SUIT ON AND HE WAS ALREADY BEING BOMBARD BY TOMATOES. In a huge mild moment of panic, he grabbed one of his tomatoes and threw it toward the first person he noticed. He just wished to god that it wasn't one of his team mates.... Oh, good new, it wasn't. It was Mitsukai Yoshiko
- 2 for total confusion and panick.

Before he could even check to see if his tomato had hit the girl, Yoakim noticed a familiar red colored ball heading his way. No, no, no.... Not all ready. It couldn't be! He had to dodge it at all cost! He didn't even care about winning at this point. No, all that mattered was the suit. He had to save the suit! Save the suit, save the world! Did the island even had dry cleaning? he didn't remember... And even then, there were limits to what dry cleaning could do and he wasn't ready to be testing to see if tomato stains could be easily removed from his clothes. Why did he even rushed here while without taking his suit off first. He was an idiot.
+1 for suit awareness.

Aaaaaand.... splat. Even with all his best effort to save his suit, Yoakim still failed at the end. He now had a really pretty red stain on his left shoulder. He sighed rather loudly and walked away from the festival ground to watch from the sidelines. He could always cheer on Alex and Xiero.... and look at a sweaty Jacob. What?
+ 4 tomatoes for Alex + 4 tomatoes for Xiero

Murren was soon swept up in the craziness of tomato fights and soon found herself on a team with some people she didn't even know! One of them was really, really tall too. A giant of gigantic proportions! Which...was probably true for most giants. But that didn't make it any less true. Any rate, soon enough, there were tomatoes flying through the air at breakneck speeds, and because she had no idea what to do, she picked one up and threw it at the first person in line of sight, which happened to be Cox Cannon.9/10

As soon as she lobbed a tomato at some unsuspecting victim, Murren realized there was one heading straight for her head! A really big, squishy looking one too. To avoid having it splatter all over her (though she'd read that tomato was good for one's hair), she attempted a move she saw on a movie and leapted forward in a somewhat frantic somersault to attempt to avoid the squishy tomato thrown by Keegan. 9/10

 C.C. was completely lost. All she knew was that she had a bunch of tomatoes thrusted into her arms, and now she was supposed to just throw them at people? Who was she even supposed to aim for?! Oh, goodness, she should have switched places with Dodge before this whole mess started. Shutting one eye, she randomly threw the tomato at whoever happened to be in the way, and it ended up being Garland Smoot. 10/10

Unfortunately, this was why Murren never would have made it as a stunt woman. She slipped in a squished tomato and landed in a heap with a tomato splat right on her back. She sighed. "Och. Well, Ah guess Ah've mure time fer booze!" She hopped up and trotted to her belongings, rummaging for a bottle of whiskey. Not to watch everyone else make fools of themselves... 9/10 ELIMINATED
