Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shehk couldn't help but laugh. This stranger, Freya was it?, was highly entertaining. If nothing else, there was a certain confidence that she couldn't help but like. More like a 'been there, done that' confidence, rather than a 'I DUH KING OF EVERYTHING' confidence. That much she was certain on. "Me? Well, if it's something beside red meat, you might have pegged me wrong." she replied. "Gotta watch what I eat, less I get sick unfortunately."

Wasn't that the most a**-backward diet ever - Only red meat. None of those silly salads or other 'health' foods that would have probably decimated her system and made her sick for a week. Alas, being in the eating competition would have probably put her out of commission in a seriously bad sense. Unless Red's people wanted her puking all over their floors.

Ew.

"Then again, I've never tested my limits with that either, so it'd definitely be an experiment for another day." she added, taking another bite of her spookie. At least the situation seemed to be under control and she wouldn't need to be putting up a notice of 'NO INVADING THE PERSONAL SPACE OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL' rule up next to the 'hands where we can see them' and 'no throwing food'.

She'd flip the first person who wasted food.

Oh Roch, you shouldn't trust Xiu's catching skills enough to throw your phone at her! Fortunately, for once (though it was a bit of a struggle), Xiu managed to grab the object before letting it smash into the ground. Emitting a sigh of relief, she glanced down at the screen, her surprised gaze immediately going back to Roch as he spoke. "Y-you want me to call your...?" She supposed that it did make sense. If something were to happen, Austin would know how to fix it better than anyone else.

Just...hopefully nothing did happen.

"I um...I understand." She nodded once, and then she was distracted by a sudden greeting. Immediately recognizing the voice, Xiu turned around and smiled at Mitsu, her tail giving a little swish. "Mitsu, hi! ...Smoothie?" She held out her smoothie in case the ghoul wanted a sip. It was pretty good, really!

Oh, thank Jack. She was so less menacing when she wasn't in her face. Sighing with relief the ghoul reached out to take her hand and give it a shake. She called her friend right off the bat. Hel called everyone friend, too. Did..they have any sort of connection? Maybe it was a valkyrie thing. This ghoul had a strange accent as well. It was kind of hard to understand. "It's..it's nice to meet you! I'm Junko! Wow, you sound just like her calling me 'friend' and stuff!" She smiled, looking rather excited about this 'extra special' thing. Extra special? What did extra special mean? Ohohoh! Did she get to fly?

...This ghoul had the attention span of a gnat. Junko blinked and watched her turn on Roch, trying desperately to decipher her accent while she spoke to him. Wow, she was really confident! Or was it cocky? Either way she was..interesting. Junko giggled as she spoke to Roch's stomach. Haha! How cute! She gave Shehk a smile to let her know everything was okay, having seen the ghoul bristle beside her. She then reached over for a set of tongs and another paper plate, humming cheerfully as she plucked up two sugar-coated brains and walked out from behind the stand to offer the plate to Seiji. "A reward~. You look tired, ねえ. Are you going to be alright?" She was pouting but she was concerned for him. Usually he handled using so much energy so well. He never got tired, and when he did it was only enough to just be extra snuggly and sweet. He looked ready to pass out where he sat! She cupped his cheek with one hand and placed the plate down in front of him on the table with the other, stroking his cheek bone with her thumb in a gentle, soothing motion. "You rest up, okay?" Junko leaned in to press a light kiss against his forehead. "You can stay here as long as you want."

She saw someone else at the signup sheet and looked to see who it was. Eeeeeeee! Mitsu! "Hi Mitsu! Hiiii~!" Oh..oh dear. She didn't know there was chocolate in the contest. Craaaaap...

Shehk grinned widely.

"Alright, I'm gonna go give the Warrior a run at it. Worse case scenario I flash everybody and only half of them are disappointed for it." The pricolici laughed - in truth, she wouldn't be flashing anybody. After all, the uniforms were totally not-flash-people prepped because of kicks and s**t.

Shehk was wearing the best thing ever to go running through that obstacle course in. Ha ha! Well...she had to go try it first, but none the less, she saluted her co-conspiration-of-concessions.

"I shall return shortly, dragă~" She bid, before jogging off to take her run at the track. She'd be back, honest!

She waved to the ghoul, her fingers brushing through Seiji's hair until they found the hair tie that kept his hair back. Oh hello. You are the enemy and you need to go. Yes. She gave it a gentle tug as she tried to slip one of her fingers through it like a ring, giggling as he told her he knew how she felt after prom. "Yes, well I don't have the stamina of a ghost." She reminded him with a soft smile, freeing her hand from his hair whether she pulled the tie out of his hair or not. "Enjoy your brains, okay? I'll be over there if you need anything." Leaning down to give him another kiss Junko on top of his head...as he ate the second brain.

Yes. Now was a good time to leave. Junko was still smiling as she pat his head and walked away to stand behind the counter again. Mitsu had liked Xiu's smoothie. She smiled and side-stepped behind Shehk, filling the blender again with a happy little hum. Had to do this as sneakily as possible, oh yes. She looked up from what she was doing as Shehk addressed her. Huh? "Dragă?" She butchered the accent and pronunciation but she couldn't really be blamed for that. She didn't know the word! She'd never heard it before! But Shehk was already gone by then...leaving her to attend to the booth all by herself. In theory taking turns had been okay...but in actuality? Watching the booth made her nervous. All by herself. Oh jack could she handle this? A sudden slap to her face from Her told her yes. She had to.

Sigh...

She turned the blender on, trying to keep it to a pulsed motion as if doing that would make it less obvious what she was doing. It took longer but eventually it was to the consistency she wanted. Junko then quietly snuck around until she was beside Mitsu, looking to her left...then her right...and then finally taking Mitsu's hand, putting the smoothie cup in it and hurrying away without a word.

Junko was a freakin' ninja, man! The Mistress groaned at the stupidity of Her ghoul, using some of Junko's hair to press it against the back of her head. This was Her way of facepalming. Meanwhile Junko stood innocently behind the counter, her hands behind her back and a smile on her face. Ha! She did good.

Shun couldn't help but feel a hint of amusement as he saw Mitsu's tail began to wag after she tried some of the smoothie. Quietly eating his pizza, he looked back to her and nodded.

"Ah.. I kind of feel like i could have done better," he said. Sure, he did complete the challenging course, and even enjoyed himself as he did so. However, there were areas where he had struggled, so he knew he still had room for improvement. There was always room.

"I don't suppose you'll be trying it, will you?" he asked. He knew the girl wasn't really fond of heights.. and some of the platforms were a fair distance up.

Seeing Shehk return, looking rather drenched, the Reaper raised an eyebrow. From the sounds of things, the course had bested her.

Freya instantly liked the funky looking reaper who didn't seem to have a problem with her challenge, or her touch. What an easy-going personality. He was a keeper! She would have tried to steal his attention away from the pretty little ghoul who had his eye, but Junko kept trying to nudge that little bit of information at Freya. It was becoming hard to ignore.

Freya turned to smile big and toothy at Junko, and laughed just a bit. "That sounds so interesting. I'm lookings forward to your contest!" Her conversation steering was becoming a little more obvious. "When does it starts again?"

A hooded figure signed up and Freya snickered deviously. "A new contender," She whistled appreciatively.

Junko wandered back behind the stand to tend to her duties as vice-president and Seiji went back to his smoothie, nursing it slowly after another wide yawn. Clawed fingers smoothing through his hair the brush back any dark strands that might have escaped the hair band the ghoul had been toying with. He was honesty surprised it was still tied back after she'd slipped a finger within the elastic, but he was happy for it. He'd take it down once he crawled into bed, but it was nice having it out of his face while he was out and about, specially this tired. One less thing for him to have to mess about with on such low energy.

A rather wet Shehk returned from attempting the course and Seiji couldn't help but smile, though he did try to hide it behind his fingers. He hadn't actually stuck around to watch many of the other students attempt the course so he'd missed seeing anyone take a dip, probably would have been funny, but he just hadn't had the energy. He agreed with her suggestion though that Junko should take a try at the course. "Shehk's right you know, you should try it. It'll be good for you." She had expressed a desire for him to believe in her more, well here you go.

A hooded figure approached the stand and Seiji's attention was drawn to.. him, as the voice emitting from the robe hinted. Someone that knew Junko, he had to assume, so of course the ghost was keen to watch every move he made. So the boil was protective, so what? It was his right as the boilfriend. Seemed harmless enough though, or at least more interested in the food then the ghoul making it, so broad shoulders relaxed once again.

Christof had wandered over too, but the hunchback seemed content to linger further back from the group. Once again Seiji was left staring flatly at the boil and silently labeling him strange. Nice, but very strange.
