Penelope was a little clutzy, having ended up tripping and landing on her face as soon as she exited the van. Well, she wasn't really trying to make a good impression in the first place -- just an honest one, so she really wasn't worried about how she looked.
Disengaging herself from the ground, she gave a grin to the rest of her group and dusted herself off, then moved to stand beside Chikako, a bit intrigued by the creatures she saw.

A sizable amount of the crates had been offloaded for the lovely inhabitants of the Fantasy Fields before the first group of visitors arrived. As excited as a few of her brood were to greet them, Jessica felt herself tense up a little. This was her first time dealing with non co-workers while on the premises and she oh so didn't want anything to go wrong.
And already, a few of the critters had forgone the food in favor of the guests unloading out of the other car. That meant they hadn't exactly taken their pellets and sedatives and that... well meant. Oh dear. At least they were all flocking too close together even though the sphinx desperately wanted attention. The ebony haired woman flipped through a few pages in her notebook to see if that behavior had been noted, to find a small mention but nothing elaborated. Goodness. Sigh. Urg.
"Hello," Jessie smiled and greeted the newcomers, nervous as hell. "Welcome to Fantasy Fields, you ... j-just came on t-time for feeding time, hehe.. heh..."

HI PHOENIX CAR!

Brief Character Profile: Fresh out of school, and training even, Jessie is still wide eyed with wonder at everything in the park (so many creatures!). She's still green with her duties, still learning the ropes a little here and there but takes things very seriously since she does not want to mess up anything.

As soon as he had walked a few feet from the car, Barry had to duck as the attention seeking sphinx had landed on their vehicle, then hopped off it. With a outward sigh he took off his hat to scratch his head. Obviously the sphinx would want some reward for it's performance, but he wasn't about to give it any considering the thing could have smashed up their car, and he'd have to put up with Richard shouting in his face. Man if there was a guy he'd ever want to punch, it would be him.
"Excellent performance, good show!" He praised the sphinx instead, even going so far as to clap. Weather the animal would understand him or not was another thing, but sometimes he had to wonder at just how smart they could be. But he would have to focus on Cleo doing her attention seeking away from the expensive car.
At first glance he could see the crates of food still around, as well as another handler around. What was her name again? Ah, Jessica. He knew she was relatively knew to the handling business, so he tried to take it easy on her. Though from the sounds of it, the animals here were just being fed.
He gave the newbie a friendly wave. "G'day Jess! You doing alright there?"
He then turned around to locate the rest of the group, and found two of them with their resident winged wolf, obviously trying to nose around for food. Barry felt confident though that Eytan wasn't nearly as hyper active as 'fluffy' was, though as with any large canine you still had to be careful.
"It alright mates, he's just looking for a extra grub." He walked up to the two to reassure them, noting that the wolf already had two large slabs of meat. "Oy oy, why you still snooping around for food, you already got some!" This he said to Eytan, his tone a little strict, but still light hearted enough. He then approached the large wolf as he fished around for his store of pellets. "If you're a good boy and finish these, I might give you some more. Thats right, move over here..." He then tried to get Eytan to move his head away with his hands, and towards what he already had not wanting to risk the wolf biting the others.

The Pegasus has gone straight for her box, knocking her hoof against it until it had been opened for her. After a few minutes of eating though she stopped, hearing the approach of the other vehicle.
She backed away nervously as the strangers emerged, and half-hid behind her feed crate instead of continuing to eat, peeking out to observe. Other plainscreatures did not seem to have her reserve, but she wasn't sure.
She shook her head suddenly, making her mane toss about and glitter in the sun. With a decisive snort she inched from behind the crate and cautiously approached the group, nostrils flared nervously.
And then there was yet another human (Penelope) who joined the one he was currently nosing (Chikako), and so Eytan wasted no time in pushing his snout towards her as well, sniffing curiously as he tried to determine if they had anything of interest in their pockets. Never knew what one could find stashed in those pockets or bags even. He did perk up a little when he heard Barry call out to him, his attention drawn away for the entirety of 10 seconds until he saw the pellets in his outstretched hand.
<< Eww... those pellets again? I can smell their contents smeared all over these meat pieces ya know? If ya ain't got anything else, buzz off and stop ruining my show... >> Giving a soft snort at Barry's hand that was in his way, he very purposefully nudged it aside with his snout, intent on spilling the pellets as he opted to switch up his approach, looking at each of them in turn with wide pleading eyes as he stretched out his wings.

Cleo spun around in place happily before moving up to the man who'd praised her and gave him a rub against his side. <>
Deciding she needed to spread the love, she padded over to two people Eytan was trying to beg from to greet them. She guessed that they didn't react simply because they'd missed her performance. These looked like female people, and female people tend to like cute. And so, Cleo tucked her wings, flopped onto the ground, and rolled around on her back before looking up at the pair with gleaming golden eyes.

Amitiel turned her head as another SUV pulled up. She cocked her head to the side in confusion as humans not in uniform stepped out. 'Must be the guests,' she thought to herself. Having finished eating she stood and decided since no one was screaming to go say hello. She paused as she recognized the other handler. She didn't like him very much, he acted as if they won't intelligent. <> she said icily. It really was a pity humans were unable to hear them, maybe then she and the other creatures would be taken seriously. With one final glare she went about ignoring the male handler.
<> she said with a sweeping bow, spreading her wings for balance. Standing back up she sighed at Cleo's behavior. Maybe there was a reason the humans didn't take them seriously.
Apparently Eytan had decided at the worst possible time to become a gourmet food lover, causing the handler to drop the pellets all over the place. He was of course not pleased with the wolfs disobedience, a slight frown appearing on his face. "Now don't be like that..." He said as the wolf went back to begging the others. It didn't look like he'd be willing to eat the pellets, so he'd have to try a different tact. "All right, I've give you something else..."
As he spoke, his hand went behind his back to grab some raw mince meat, but also a few more pellets which he pressed into the food to hide it, then pulled his hand out from behind his back. "How about now?"
Out of the corner of his eye he could see Cleo was performing again, A much more suitable act then before. He'd seen to a treat in a moment, but for now he had to watch both the wolf, and the lunar Gryphon approaching. Barry defiantly looked surprised at Amitiel as he bowed, clearly not expecting it to do something like that.
Quickly he used his other hand to grab both pellets and a handful of mince meat, and hiding said pellets in the meat, he threw a handful to both the gryphon and the sphinx. "Amazing performance form the both of ya!"
In dealing with the current ones, he nearly missed the approach of the pegasus. He could tell it was skittish (since most wild horses were, and it was well...a horse. With wings). Though his hands were a little full trying to handle the other three.
For now, he kept a watchful eye on the pegasus, not too concerned with it's approach. For now at least.
Amitiel bristled at the male handler's words. << Performance? I am no pet performing tricks! >> She turned her nose up at the meat. Really thinking she'd fall for such a trick. Just to make sure her point got across she turned around and went back to the female handler. She gently nuged into a poket and took a pellet from Jessie. She ate it then rubbed against the nervous human.
Rin was there, she was very much there. Watching. Possibly scowling, and standing by the SUV to keep watch of it. Because some guests wanted rest possibly. And Barry was handling the critters.
These weren't as big and didn't need her getting in the way really. Not like the dragons. Still. She was watching, and security was ready to play bad cop should it need to. Thankfully, she didn't so far.
Everyone
General note that, she's paying attention but going to let Barry handle it since it looks like it's... fine for now. She's just there to keep people safe.
Eyes widening with awe, Penelope stifled a giggle as she found some leftover pellets in her bag, passing them out. Idly, she thought about handing out animal cookies, but squashed the notion. Because that wasn't ironic at all. Nope.
And then she saw the gryphon roll around. Like a cat. Like an adorable fluffy cat. Awwww! Reaching down, the redhead ruffled Cleo's stomach, scratching that one spot cats loved right on the front of their chest.
She was enamoured with the winged wolf, though, and found her gaze turning back to him, her other hand outstretching to give him pats too. If he wanted them!!

Cleo twitched momentarily at the hand that was placed on her chest, but relaxed when the hand started scratching the spot. The sphinx gave a long stretch as her eyes drooped in contentment. <> If she could purr, she would definitely be doing so now.
Jessie visibly shook, as if being physically pulled from lala land. She blinked owlishly for a moment as she processed what the other handler was asking of her. Oh. Right. The wave was returned, a little belated followed by a small 'I'm fine,' before she turned her attention back to her work. (She was also a little sheepish in reply, since she couldn't for the life of her remember Barry's name).
There was at least a small amount of comfort along side her, in the form of a gryphon. Not the usual like some domesticated animal in a normal life style, but Jessie found the affection she was receiving to be most warming and she returned the gesture in kind as she gently ran her fingers through the soft feathers atop Amitiel's head. "Thank you," uh, "Snowbelle." 'Cause she was white and arctic looking and all. Jessie had no idea what had transpired between her and the male handler.
At least the others seemed to be doing well with the guests, some getting their own forms of affection and treats - hopefully pellets, because they needed to get their pellets. Oh, a pegasus had joined them. Had she opened the box for his food? She couldn't remember.

And yet the creatures here seemed friendlier? They were more curious, at the very least, and Chikako did raise an eyebrow as the sphinx did a few flips in the air, scribbling down more notes.
...Which were duly interrupted by something nudging her knee, and the blonde blinked down at the wolf... with wings. Er, well... what should she do now? Chikako wasn't really much of an animal person, even if they had a family dog. All she could do was fixate her attention on the handler instead. "Feeding time, huh? Does it," She gestured down at the winged wolf, "want me to feed it or something?" The wolf certainly seemed more interested in getting her attention than Barry's attempt to distract it.
The sphinx was doing more flips again and earned a smile as Chikako watched Penelope reward it with pats. Following Penelope's lead, she slowly stooped down and reached out a hand to pat the wolf on his head.
Guest Name: Chikako Fukui Guest Profession: Investor Physical Description: Chikako has blond, wavy hair, coupled with blue eyes (though actually just colored contacts). She stands at a height of 169cm, although she generally seems taller as she usually wears heels, along with a dress and a blazer. Brief Character Profile: Chikako is the eldest (and only) daughter of the Fukui family, who runs a chain of hotels. Her two younger brothers have no interest in the family business, and thus, she gave up her studies in law to pursue business instead. As her father is considering to invest in the theme park business, Chikako has been sent to Wonder Park to analyze if it would be worth investing. She is, of course, aware that this is a test to prove her capabilities, but is willing to take up the challenge.
Whelp, it look like Barry had just been snubbed by a lunar gryphon. But at least it was playing nice with Jessie, whom looked less nervous. It was...a mixed blessing. But the gryphon had eaten the pellet. One less problem for him to worry about
Now he turned his attention to Cleo and Penelope. Again, more mixed feelings. Since Penelope had begun to pet the sphinx without his say-so, but the sphinx seemed to be enjoying the attention, so it was alright. For now at least.
Barry then heard Chikako's question, and watched as she too went to pat the wolf. "Yup, Eytan here just wants some extra snacks. He's quite docile though, much more approachable." Though he would be more docile if he would just eat the bloody pellets.
Maybe he could still convince the winged wolf to eat his food...
"Come on, some nice juicy meat..." He nudged Eytan with his outstretched hand, still holding the mince meat away from Chikako and Penelope.
