Aphismet startled at the touch, letting the dice drop into the pan for his second roll. His eyes bulged out. Ohgod it was Chloe! And she was with someone? ...G-good! he thought, forcing himself to be okay with it. After all, hadn't he just agreed to go on a picnic with someone else, himself?
"Oh, ah... H-hi!" he returned her greeting, smiling slightly. He offered a greeting to the other as well, bowing his head slightly and smiling. "Hello," he muttered. "Having fun?" he said to both, running a hand through his hair and trying to hide his blush. He was, after all, being caught trying to win one of the prizes he made; he didn't really know why he was rolling, really. It was kind of silly.
"I suppose I should let other people roll," he said, mostly to himself. "I'm hogging the dice."

Hot damn! He had her moving. We`rika was better at this than he gave himself credit for. He let her pass first, which was probably a good idea since she would know where the refreshment table was located. In their discussion, the Huicholan forgot to put his scarf back on and quickly wrapped it around his face as he followed Chloe, paying attention to the ground more than anything else.
Course he almost ran into her as she came to a stop at the Lucky Pan. The man all but leaped to her side to avoid collision.... only to find her talking with another guy. Tonight was certainly having its ups and downs. It was testing his limits on patience and unbridled anger/smack down quite well. ******** parole officer and her good ideas....
"Hello. Having fun?"
If it weren't for Chloe, he probably would have turned around and walked off, but that really wasn't an option. So he counted to thirty and simply nodded. He wasn't going to give this ******** the satisfaction of a verbal reply.

Chloe gave a small smile, shaking her head. "I-It's alright... you deserve the ch-chance at one too.." She paused before leaning forward a little to speak confidentially. "I-I've rolled a few times m-myself.. Th-The Sisay one is j-just so adorible."
She leaned back, looking over her shoulder and up at We`rika. She didn't want to be rude.. he'd invited her to go get a drink.. but she also had felt an urge to come over and say hello to Aphismet.
Chloe licked her lips nervously. "W-Well.. w-we're just.. going over t-to get drinks.." She gave him a shy, apologetic smile, reaching out to lightly touch his forearm before turning back to her escort of sorts. "K-Keep rolling if y-you want to.."
She made a small 'follow me' motion to We`rika and continued to the refreshments, looking back over her shoulder at Aphismet before focusing fully on her present company. "S-So.. a-are you enjoying th-the.. the event..?" She tilted her head back so she could look up at him, blinking as a stray snowflake landed on her forehead.
It looked like it was starting to snow...

Aphismet smiled in unrepressed pride as she admitted rolling for one herself. When she mentioned the Sisay one, Aph blinked and said, "Seriously? Wow, that's the one I want to win, too! I like its see-through ribbon... We have such similar, uh... uh, tastes..."
His excitement had drifted into embarassment at the end, as he realized that what he was saying could be interpreted as... as what? He wasn't sure, but his brain had decided it meant something.
Aph nodded as the woman left with the other man, watching them go. He'd had the urge to request to join, but that wouldn't have been right. Instead, Aph just cleared his throat and turned back to the Lucky Pan, rolling again to take his mind off matters.

Alex approached Dr. Kyou's booth, but stopped a short ways away. The man was handsome enough, even with his vaguely demonic appearance; that wasn't what stopped her. He seemed to be yelling...at his booth. Now is...not a good time, she thought, veering towards the refreshment booth. Maybe later.
She had almost made it to where she had bought flowers from Rivener when she spotted Vyn and Zoe in what appeared to be a nuzzling contest. "It's a damn good thing nothing else can shock me today," she murmured to herself. Alex blinked as spots started to form in front of her eyes. Spots? No...snow. She sneaked a peek over her shoulder to Roux, making sure he wasn't upset, realizing that snow and ice would forever be linked in her mind to the beautiful Raevan. He wasn't visible through the crowd, but she figured if he WAS upset, it would be...slightly more obvious.
She smiled and extended a bare hand, catching a few flakes on her fingertips. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes, taking a moment to appreciate the quickly cooling weather.

Jae Eun left the money on the counter and walked away, sipping her pink lemonade. It was rather delicious!
Looking back at the Lucky Pan, Jae Eun decided...that maybe it was worth one more shot. She stepped next to a man who was standing there, seemingly absentmindedly rolling dice. Picking up a pair of dice, she tossed them, quietly cheering '만새!' under her breath.
Clink! Clunk! Clatter!
She added up the totals....173!!
"만새! 만새!!!!" she rejoiced, throwing one first triumphantly in the air.
Once again grabbing the Polaroid, she took a picture of the dice, and as a fail-safe, took out her phone and snapped a picture with that as well. Sighing with relief, she turned to the man.
"Hey Mister! Good luck!!" she cheered, closing her free hand in a fist in front of her.
Looking behind her, she realized that the pink-haired receptionist was heading towards the refreshments booth!
"Ah! Maybe I should wait for her to come back!" she whispered.
((Translation: 만새 - pronounced 'man sei' it is a term that basically means 'celebrate~' or something like that.))

Aphismet had stepped aside for the new person, smiling at her encouragingly. She was whispering something in another language, rolled the dice... and won! Aphismet clapped his hands at her, grinning.
"Congratulations! Which plushie did you win?" he asked, not having looked at the dice and seen the total.
"And thanks," he added when she wished him good luck. He grabbed the dice and gave them a shake, dropping them in.

With a final roll, Zeph walked over to the refreshment booth. There was a good view of the so-called "Kissing Booth", which rather appealed to Zephrnyx, as he had no intention of kissing someone at the moment.
The smell of delicious food hit him as he neared the area, and he walked a little faster, his stomach emitting a slight growl. He reached the counter and to the nearest free server- a beautiful... and floating... creature?, who resembled a person, and had purple eyes and horns that curled out of his head.
"Uh..." Zeph paused for a second, admiring the floating person's attire and making, before stating firmly and respectively. "Hello.. I would like some cookies and pink lemonade, please..." he offered him a smile, and bit his lip. I wonder... if I am able to get a bit of information..? he wondered to himself, contemplating which question he should ask the half-person first.

What could have been a nice proper goodbye, turned into a wolfish 'Seeyah b***h!' smile that he flashed at the other man in passing. His scarf probably covered it up, but that wasn't the point! The point waaaas... Chloe was by him! This small victory only making his toothy grin broader.
At the sound of Chloe's voice, We`rika's ears perked up and he turned back around to meet the young woman and her lovely pink hair. He completely forgot her question as he watched a snow flake melt against her forehead. She had really pretty blue eyes. He'd really only seen brown eyes in his life, almost never knowing there could be another color until he came to Gaia. "Yer makin' me wanna kiss ya agin'..." His words were really not meant for her... well they weren't for the physical world at all... They just slipped out, replacing the Huicholan's distracted expression into a frown. "Uhh... Oh yeah, I am! I dun get ou' much soooo thi' is quite a..." s**t what was the word? "sensary overload... So... about this Lab a.... friend recommended thi' festival, but I've never heard of Lab 305. Wha' is it?"

Jae smiled at the man, he seemed a little goofy, but nice.
"I don't know! All I know is that I get an adorable little plushie!!" she giggled.
Excited, she rushed over to towards the pink-haired receptionist.
"Miss! I did it! I took the right picture this time, too!" she called out, barely able to contain her excitement.
She power-walked over to the receptionist and her companion, panting excitedly, her cheeks flushed with an innocent pink.

Chloe blushed, looking down at the ground. The kissing booth was for a good cause, it was for the Lab. She was about to fumble out a reply to that comment when he talked to something she could answer much more easily. "Lab[305] is a .. w-well.. a lab. Dr. Kyou takes Fel Essences and the souls that potential guardians gather and combine them to make a Raeven." She pointed over toward where Roux floated, looking bored and annoyed. "L-Like Roux." She blinked, looking up as the familiar woman headed over, another polaroid in hand. She took it, and gave a happy smile, nodding. "Oh! Y-Yes, this is correct alright.. A-Ahm.. hm..." She looked up at We`rika, looked back at the girl, We`rika, the girl. "H-Hold on a... a m-moment." She broke away from the two and jogged back over to her booth, pausing to lean down and grab the small Kalec plushie. Her head gave a loud thunk against the top of the booth as she once again stood up too fast without being careful. She winced and straightened, holding the back of her head with one hand, the plush in the other. She jogged back over, still holding her head, and held out the soft plush. "H-Here you are." ((Please save the image to your own computer and host it on your own. Thank you and Congratulations!))

Excitedly, Jae Eun gingerly accepted the plushie.
"Thank you so much!" she cried, happiness written quite plainly all over her face.
Bowing excitedly to show her appreciation, she bubbled with energy.
"Sorry for interrupting you two! I'll be on my way now!!" she giggled.
Well! This had turned out to be a rather exciting event for her! Leaving the lab, she realized she had completely forgotten to ask about Dr. Kyou, or what exactly she held a plushie of in her hands....but Jae Eun's mind wandered, as she finally noticed the rather angry vibrating of her hand phone.
Of course, it was her brother.

We`rika just kind of... nodded a lot. He didn't understand about every second word, but... He was trying his best to look like he did. He was probably failing miserably what with the blank stare he was giving her. "Ooo... Ohkay..." He smiled feebly. The ******** was a potential? Or a Fel Essence for that matter?!
Following Chloe's gesture, he saw another spirit sorta... floating with a nice pissy aura about him. They had a lot in common thus far. He needed to ask about these spirits... later. With sixteen years of experience contacting spirits and s**t, he never heard of any able to traverse through the physical realm. Unless they possessed another. Maybe that's what... He had to hold off on that tangent. Chloe was talking to him.
"H-Hold on a... a m-moment."
Again? He looked over to see another girl seeking Chloe's attention. They were everywhere tonight. Gah! just count to thirty. That was getting old as well. And tiresome, Jesus! He never knew anger could be so draining. Maybe he should start going to his anger management meetings again. "... Okay..." He said as cheerfully as he could.

Aphismet watched the woman dash away with the picture, heading straight for Chloe. Aph's gaze lingered on the pink-haired receptionist for a moment, cheeks reddening, until he cleared his throat and looked down at his dice again. He gave them a shake and threw them into the pan.
Stop thinking, Stop thinking, he was thinking to himself, the litany somehow working to push all other thoughts out of his head for the moment. He focused on the dice instead.
Rivener found Vyn bent down with the Gwee, behind his counter. He blinked in startlement. "What the hell?!" He muttered, frowning. "Vyn, get up, everyone who cares to look can see down your shirt." Turning a venomous glare to all the people that had been leaning over the booth to get a glimpse, Riv advanced to block their view.
Muttering, the crowd dispersed.
"Stupid humans," he swore under his breath. "And you," he said, turning to Eiry, "Stay nearby where I can keep an eye on you." With that, Riv turned back to his "business", offering the world a honey-sweet, bedroomy smile, inticing them to buy flowers.
