From the waiting area, Petro stood ramrod straight, listening curiously at the goings on happening on the stage as well as the random yelling from the audience. If he was having second thoughts about what he'd signed up for, it wasn't visible on his face. The only trace of emotion was mild surprise about the information being revealed of each volunteer. He remembered Yuzhi from the raid but didn't realize she was a horseman.
This fact made him a little less welcoming at the prospect of interacting with her, but that was neither here nor there. Brown eyes somehow ended up noticing an unconscious figure in the backstage and it took a few strides for the tikbalang to be standing over the boil. He looked around for a gnome, trying to draw their attention, but eventually admitting it was a futile gesture.
So he knelt down, lightly shaking Shik by the shoulder, "Hey, do y' need to go see Nurse Cricket?"

Shaheen's disturbance in the force senses were tingling...or something. More then likely she was just getting impatient and fidgety and wanted to make sure that Shik was behaving himself...and by behaving what she really meant was remaining comatose. She was sure things were fine as she didn't hear any growling, swearing, or objects being thrown around but one could never be too sure.
And so she was just suddenly backstage, not caring if anybody told her she wasn't allowed to be back there, striding towards the knocked out Shik and the student who was trying to revive him.
"HEY!" She shouted at him, glaring, her gold eyes flashing angrily. "Don't disturb the sleeping bear!" Her voice quieted into a whispered hiss as she knelt down beside Shik, reaching out to prod at the lump on his head to see if there was any reaction, any sign that he might soon awaken.
Then for seemingly no reason whatsoever she summoned her dagger, the light glinting off of it's razor sharp edges dangerously. She gave the student a warning look, before slicing downwards with one smooth and deft movement, cutting through Shiks bandages and revealing his toned musculature beneath, which of course, she then had to take a moment to admire. Just a moment though, because really, she didn't care about him, and he definitely wasn't attractive.

Terra blinked. "I did not know he had a lady friend," she said as she heard the bid. "I will not interrupt in your relationship!" She wasn't sure what she would have done with him, anyway. Probably made him go shopping with her or something.
Ah well, maybe next bid!

Frost just stared at the two ghouls before Terra thought- He and-
A light cough, and he shook his head. "My relationship with Gene is not of that nature. It is simple friendship, nothing... more." He looked at Gene, clearly confused as if he had missed some kind of memo.
Goodness! That was quite the start! Junko blinked, watching the small bidding war that went on between a few of the students. Well then.
"Ah! Time's up! Frost in the Storm goes to Miss Gene, with Miss Yuzhi going to Lizzy!" Junko cheered and clapped, bouncing on her toes and ushering the two volunteers off the stage. A pair of gnomes led them to their new...ah..'masters'?
Junko stopped Yaya before she could leave, smiling warmly at her friend. "Stick around, okay? We're going to see to it everyone goes to a good home." Like they were selling minipets. Way to go, Junko.
OOC

"But she is so adamant--" Terra said, looking confused. "I... see?" She had no clue. Ah well, maybe she could bid on someone that would fulfill one of her scavenger hunt requirements!
She smiled slightly, already looking forward to who was up for auction next. Frost really would have to convince her better later.
"What? No I'm ready - what do you mean it's already started, are they - oh, they're already on stage - why do I hear myself in the speaker sys-"
"AND now, for our next group of auctionees. First we have the dashing Aymet. Aymet hails from the Wild West, where he wrangles small midgets for a living. He's got the upper body strength of a small elephant, and he can juggle live rabid animals. Bidding for Aymet begins at 1 silver seed.
Next is Xiu Ying. Xiu is a fiesty firecracker, who eats her weight in cherries (pits included) every hour just to keep that shiny white hair glossy and looking pink even though it isn't. Xiu can also summon the spirit of Jack Skellington on command. Bidding for Xiu will begin at 1 silver seed.
We also have Billy Goat up for auction. Billy is a proud member of the tribe of Kalac'ki, a group of people dedicated to worshipping silly putty as a god. He can see a thousand meters in any direction, and he is very skilled with his hands. Bidding will begin at 1 silver seed.
Our second horsemen up for auction is Kiwi. Kiwi tastes like limes, and has a tendency to destroy any fruit that is brought in her vicinity with laser beams that shoot from her belly button. Bidding for Kiwi starts at 1 silver seed.
Lastly, our third horsemen is Mmur. Mmur is made completely of yogurt, shaped like a very attractive young boil. He's recently written several published works of fiction entitled "Be the You That is Me Being You." They are currently up for sale on ScreeBay. Bidding for Mmur begins at 1 silver seed."

Mmur listened intently as the next set of students and members of the Lost Clans were announced. He couldn't have said why he had signed up for this. Normally he was fiercely against any restrictions on his freedom, but this was all for fun, right? Surely these students didn't have the mental capacity to...
His eyes widened as he truly registered what the purple ghoul was saying.
Everyone sounded so interesting! Even himself! He had no idea he had done all of those things! And he was attractive! From his place on stage, he raised a hand and said, "Hello! I would like to bid on... everyone!"
He pulled five seeds out of... somewhere and tossed them off of the stage.
"What do you mean that horseman is a boil? Don't be ridiculous, she's obviously - why do I hear myself again? Will someone take this Jack-forsaken mic off my body before I crush it-"
The speaker system squealed, and all was silent.

Xiu wanted to know who it was who wrote up that description for her. Surely not Junko?! With an embarrassed little groan, the baku buried her face in her hands, her ears drooping with every point given.
At least the point about being able to summon the spirit of Jack Skellington was kind of impressively flattering...if not a complete and utter lie. Almost desperately, she glanced up and shot Junko a wide-eyed, pitiful stare. Was it too late to back out? That being said, who would possibly bid on--
--...
Xiu stared blankly at the horseman at the end of the lineup.

What great introdu--er...wait...
...Well, Riley was making up stuff anyway.
"..Ah, Mmur." Junko whispered, stepping closer to the horseman. "Why are you bidding on yourself?"

Kiwi nearly ran back offstage to pommel Riley when he realized how she had introduced him. Not one of those things were true, and he was, in fact, a he. These Halloween scarelings and their ways. He wondered suddenly what had possessed him to even follow through with this. It had seemed like fun at the time-
And then Mmur's voice summoned his attention, as the "slave in question" bid on all of them. A grin curved across his lips. Way to stick it to the scarelings! At least he could still rely on his clan to save him.
But another part of him wondered if perhaps Mmur too, was going insane.

"I... I sound really impressive," the horseman whispered back, glowing eyes wide. "Everyone does!" He didn't get many seeds to just spend willy-nilly like this. It might have caused him to act a bit rashly. Or insanely, as Kiwi would put it. He returned his fellow soldier's grin before turning back to the ghoul with the lovely hair. "If I win, we can all sip tea together and talk about our accomplishments!"
Mmur nodded. Clearly he didn't know about the whole "only winning one" thing.
