He glanced to the smaller signatures behind him and nodded. "I'll be around if anyone needs help." He said, offering his support for any trainees about, and then popped back on his head. He walked past Zink, giving him a candy cane, before walking off into the crowd.
After only taking a few steps away, a small boy walked up to him to tug on his harness and reach up. He knelt down, smiling as the kid reached up to squeeze his plush nose and generally remained in awe at seeing a large stuffed animal walking around. The parents were close by, and he offered the kid the candy cane, and as the child reached, leached a bit of energy. Kids were easy to target, and he knew they had energy to kill. If anything, he gave a gift to the parents by tuckering out the tot early.

It didn't take long for a father to come up, holding a toddler in his arm, and smiling at the giant reindeer. "Can my daughter touch your antler?" He asked, to which Wolframite slowly tilted his head, letting the tot touch the foam horn with the same fascination she might share for a mobile or pretty lights.
As she did, Wolframite lifted his mitten and seeped some energy from the father. At most, the child in his arms would feel a little heavy and he'd have to take a break on a bench somewhere.

Having dealt with the heckler personally, Vespa gave a rather triumphant humph, before grabbing his caroling pamphlet and skimming through to see what song he should sing next. As confident he had suddenly become in his own abilities, he didn't wish to risk pushing the issue or getting too big headed, so it was back to singing.
This time, he'd try to be a little more kinder to other's ears. He didn't want to have a repeat of the last time... who knew how long his luck would last.
"Frosty the Snowman, was a holly jolly soul!"

Azurite waved her partner off as she went her own way, snickering slightly when she fumbled. "With a corn cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made of coal~" She finished automatically as she happened to be within ear shot of the other corrupt's singing.

And once again, fate proved to be a very cruel mistress, as he caught an unwelcoming gaze from a guard and another person tore up his performance. It was disheartening to hear the woman scoff, before shuffling away, and Vespa threw his pamphlet to the ground with disgust.
"Fine. I'll stick with chocolates. None of you have the Christmas spirit!"

As much as Cinnabar liked a free and easy source of energy, this man was starting to wear on her nerves. His prattle was incessant and nauseating to her. She wanted to claw his eyes out... and yet she didn't. He had so much energy... with every step, she pulled some from him and he got more and more tired.
Finally, he stopped to wipe his forehead with the back of his wrist, looking a little pale. He pretended to shrug it off, but Cinnabar could tell that he was starting to feel the effects of the draining. That meant it was time to move on and she thanked God for that. Any longer and she might have actually hurt him.
Separating from him was as easy as a dismissive excuse and dropping her arm from his before she sashayed off with an upright posture and her hands in her coat pockets. Loser... maybe she'd get lucky and he'd get hit by a car on his way home. As for her, it was time to find another target. Maybe this time a pretty girl would work.

Zircon had been to several events like this with her family in the past, but she'd never been much of a fan. Still, weaving in and out of the lanes of booths hit a certain chord of bitter nostalgia in the lieutenant's chest, and it almost made her forget that she was here on business.
The tendrils of chaos beckoned to her all around, though, in the shapes of holiday sweaters and reindeer antlers and...a mascot suit? Zircon's nose scrunched in a mix of disdain and pity. Either way, she was reminded of the fellow officers around her, all on the hunt, and steeled herself to the fact that she was in competition, that she couldn't afford to give a poor performance today.
Time to get to it, then.
Sidling up beside one of the more crowded booths, Zircon feigned interest by peering over the shoulder of one shop-goer. She tried to use the proximity to begin draining energy, but after a few moments she got a wary eye from the clerk that told her to relocate. With a sigh, she slipped away, relegating herself to Ilmenite's tent. She would have to be more subtle.

Since singing carols was simply out of the question, Vespa felt he had little choice but to initiate plan C. Plan B would be to find the woman that scoffed at his poor singing ability and exact revenge on her as well, but he was certain he'd be caught if he tried.
So, off he went to booth 42, grabbing some chocolates and making his way to the floor again. Maybe he couldn't spread the holiday cheer with his singing, but surely he'd get somewhere with chocolate, right?
"Free samples! Best chocolate you've ever tasted!" Vespa called out, keeping his voice cheerful and passing the tray in front of people, snagging energy from the first victim as quickly and efficiently as possible before moving on to the next. Yes, maybe he should just stick with chocolates for now on...

Deciding candy canes were fine and dandy, but not wanting to be shown up by a few trainees, he decided to pick up on all the singing going on and try himself. This was not as easy to do under a plush head, so his singing had more or less turned into loud humming to anyone listening. Regardless, get any plush person to gesture and hum a tune and you were bound to get an audience, and Wolframite managed a gathering of 3 girls who were passing by, smiling at the plush creature and making the General feel a bit more self-conscious than he had been at being just a guy hiding under a reindeer costume.

He was feeling confident, after having snatched a little energy from a passerby that could not resist the lure of chocolate. Perhaps if he played it safe and remained inconspicuous, he'd gather more and more energy as the fair went on. What was the phrase? Slow and steady wins the race? It seemed like a sound strategy, but required patience and tact.
Two things that Vespa was sorely lacking, it seemed.
How far would he get by just laying low and passing out chocolate? He looked around him and could tell that other Negaverse agents were doing better than him, and a thought came to mind. He had to impress. He had to do better than bare minimum if he wanted to gain respect from his peers, and how could he think to do that by meekly handing out sweets? Today, he'd be different. He'd be bold. If he wanted to take something, he'd just take it...
And that was exactly what he was going to do, when the guy that heckled his pathetic singing skills earlier came back for revenge. He barely saw him in the corner of his eyes before he felt his foot hit something, and down he went, tray and chocolate and all. "Ha! Merry Christmas!"
The next thing that Vespa knew, he was being helped up by security, and suddenly being ushered out the door! He wanted to complain, but what could he do? Make a scene and EVERY agent would surely know of his failure... He gave an annoyed huff and gave in with quiet dignity. One day, that heckler would get what was coming to him...

Done with his song and pretty exhausted, he turned and started to walk again, taking it easy and slow and smiling. Energy collecting in the open was rather thrilling, though he would have liked to take a break.
Turning a corner, he reached out, sapping a bit of energy from some passerbys. They didn't seem to mind him just standing there, though he probably looked like a store front decoration.

At some point, a woman window shopping snapped her head to look at him, narrowing her eyes as she touched her brow. She wasn't sure what was going on, but she was getting pretty suspicious.
Waving in what he hoped was a jolly manner, he offered her a candy cane and then turned tail.

Zircon watched the first expulsion with a mixture of surprise and mild amusement. See? Even civilians knew that the senshi didn't belong in their ranks, no matter their intentions. Still, it was better to lay low for a while and smooth things over, and with that in mind she made her way over to Ilmenite's tent, graciously taking a plate of cookies with a nod.
She began to offer them up on the main floor, hoping to grab the slightest bit of energy. However, in the aftermath of Vespa's leave the remaining civilians were on edge, giving her and her cookies sideways glances.
Oh.
Maybe she should try dressing more festively? Perhaps that would work.

Now that she had gotten rid of the dead weight, it was time to find fresher meat. As Cinnabar swayed between people, she kept her eye out for a likely target, making a full circuit of the booths at last. She needed something... a bit of a pallet cleanser after the last one. There were lots of people, but so many of them were couples, and lots of children everywhere...
Shrugging, the dark haired woman finally decided to take advantage of the rug rats everywhere and the sometimes less than attentive parents. Sweeping past one such couple that was more intent on the contents of the booth than the child screaming behind them, she reached out subtly and swept her hands over the dark curls of the five year old, ruffling his hair.
For a blessed moment, the screaming stopped as he felt the drain on his energy and he stared up after her with big blue eyes as she swept away, the thumb on one hand finding its way into his mouth.

Loosing track of the other Corrupt who had been singing, Azurite ended up wandering into a particularly... crowed aisle. This was either a blessing in disguise, or a curse. And there was only one way to find out. Wriggling her way through the crowd, which she suddenly decided she hated- ugh, the white haired girl 'brushed up' against some elderly woman who was trying her best to get through the crowd herself. This however, resulted in the woman taking her purse and smacking Azurite upside the head with it.
Seriously, ow.
Apparently this was a curse. What was it about holidays that brought out the crazy in people?
