Welcome to Gaia! ::

Roux flexed his fingers lightly, curling them into loose fists at his sides as their lips met. There was no real meaning behind this action, Rivener enjoyed doing it, Chloe had asked him to do it for the event.. but she'd assumed he knew what kisses were for when she had. To the icey Frei it was just an action that meant a compliment somehow.. and when Rivener pressed their lips together Roux felt a tiny inkling of pleasure.

He pressed back against Rivener's lips, not knowing to pull away to end it or deepen it further. He did, however, open his mouth slightly to breath, his exhale washing over Rivener's lips, the only amount of physical warmth the Ice Frei would ever be able to give.

Chloe startled a little as We`rika placed his hand on her shoulder, looking down at the counter. Not many seemed to be present but.. there weren't too many people interested in the Kissing Booths right now.. she could take over at the refreshments if anyone else came by and needed something.

As it was she shyly ducked beneath the counter, falling on her rear as she tried to prevent knocking her head on it. With a sigh she stood up, brushing the snow from her back and turning to face We`rika with a timid smile. "U-Uhm! S-Sure! And.. i-it's alright.. th-this one will be on me."

She looked around.. quite a bit lost. She wasn't really sure where everything was supposed to be.. and the other Raevens all seemed to either be not present or on the far end of the stand near the flowers.

"Wh-What about.. a steamed sweet potato.." She spotted the tin-foil covered items, pointing to them so We`rika could see.

((If there are refreshments workers active then please don't worry or feel like I'm taking over your job.. I'm just filling in for now until you get back or say you want to continue.))

When Rivener and the big Gwee had crowded the stand, Lorenzo had become quite uncomfortable. He didn't want to share Vyn's attention, and he didn't really want to be around all the floating bodies that seemed to be unhappy all the time. The deciding factor came in the form of an over-excited boy; Zoe chittered adoringly at Vyn before taking flight.

He almost immediately hit the ground once he hit the open air. It was...it was SNOWING? Lorenzo released a pitiful cry, looking for Alex.

Alexandria heard the cry, and recognized it immediately; her eyes opened and she turned to where she had seen Vyn and Zoe. She saw the female Raevan, plus Rivener and a green Raevan...she even saw the half-eaten mint on the counter, but no Zoe. A little worried, she started to walk towards the booth.

A little closer, Alex heard the cry again, and looked down. Sure enough, the little Gwee was trying to stand in the snow, looking horribly depressed. "Lorenzo, you silly little Gwee," she cooed to him, kneeling down to scoop him up into her arms. He uttered another sad chirp, blinking his massive eyes at her. "We'll get out of the cold," she assured him, cradling him so that he was resting inside the folds of her jacket, just above her Vyn plushie. "Just don't take off on me, okay?"

Alex gave a quick glance around, then cast her eyes to the sky. It'd been such a nice evening, and eventful to boot! Even Lorenzo had enjoyed himself; if anything, that made her happy she had come. She decided she'd stop to get a hot chocolate to go, and be on her way to the apartment.

Aphismet smiled at the girl's eagerness. He enjoyed seeing her like this, it seemed more natural. If the two didn't have such a scary situation, Aph was sure Lillian would be a very fun and happy-go-lucky big sister. Too bad she had to grow up so fast... It was almost like what Isi had to go through, he thought. How many people are going through similar things right now, I wonder?

Aphismet laughed. "Yes, we have a few sleds. No need to worry! And I'm sure a snowball fight or two would do us all some good." The man couldn't help but smirk at the idea of the child chuking snowballs in that cupcake outfit.

"Do you have a phone number?" he asked, taking out a pen and notepad from his coat. Mostly it was used to jot down recipe ideas, since they could crop up at any time. Who knew he might one day use it to collect phone numbers? He blushed only lightly, reminding himself that he was not asking for a Girl's Number, he was asking for the number to a pair of new friends. This was enough to soften the flush of his cheeks for now.

"Of course we do, silly." Lillian replied with added laughter. Though she couldn't help but blush even more. This wasn't from embarrassment but just those words!'Lil! Say something else! Give him the darn phone number already! He's just a friend who is setting up a playdate for his family and yours! Wake up and get your mind out him asking you out!' Her thoughts cried.

"It's four, eight, two, two, zero, seven, nine. Don't mind our answering machine though...just ignore it and leave a message if we don't pick up." Lillian told him. She hoped she'd be able to get to the phone before THAT went off.

Tyson giggled thinking of their answering machine message. Lillian didn't want to do it, but she allowed it either way."But it is a good one! You said you liked it when we did it and it's still there Lil!"

Aphismet was now very curious to hear what that answering machine would say. He jotted down the number and wrote their name next to it: "Lillian and Tyson." He smiled.

"I'm really curious to hear that machine, now," he admitted, grinning at Tyson. "What does it say?" he asked, hoping the tyke would spill the beans.




Rivener was keeping his eyes half-closed, enjoying the moment very much. His smile widened a little bit when Roux didn't flinch at his touch, or try to pull away. Quite the opposite, the other was leaning into his hand. Riv lifted the other hand, placing the icy version of Roux carefully on the seat first, and softly ran his fingers on the other's hair, admiring the shiny silver strands. "So perfect," he whispered, knowing that Roux enjoyed compliments. He brushed the other's lips with his own briefly before whispering more words he knew the other would like to hear: "So beautiful, precious Roux."

Rivener sighed also, mirroring the other's, a knowing smile on his lips as he watched Roux's cheeks slowly flush. Roux himself might not know what this was, but Rivener knew! He wouldn't tell, though; Roux had to find out on his own, to make it really true.

Leaning forward slowly, feeling playful and wondering where the line was now, Rivener brushed his lips along the other's lips, to his cheek, to his neck, to his ear. He listened and watched closely to see where Roux would let him go, enjoying this puzzle. And of course, Riv kept whispering things that would smooth over any feathers he ruffled by crossing that line he was trying to find.

"So beautiful, Roux. Skin is so soft! Hair smells nice... My most favorite person..."
