Welcome to Gaia! ::

Alex hadn't really come here for snack. He had actually wandered up for something else. Still, he was polite enough to stay and have a couple of bites of some sweet treat that he honestly couldn't really enjoy because it wasn't brains or raw meat but....well, this just seemed like the right thing to do.

Once he was finished with that little snack, he asked the host of the booth for a cup of tea. Green tea if they had it. Once he had that he very carefully and quietly slipped away, not once taking a sip out of the cup he held in his hand, and left a few silver seeds behind to make up for the fact that otherwise he would pretty much just be stealing.

Ohhh my! She repressed her newfound case of the shakes-and-squees as he came in closer. He was just so... so... gorgeous!
Oh, right! something to say?
She took on a coquettish stance, reacting to his charm with charm of her own.
"Just visiting the festival for now. I hope to be a student someday, especially now that I know what it has to offer"
She giggled.
"So what of candied meats, then? Meats cured with sugar?"
Those existed, right? She had found a 'A halloweeners first 1001 uses for sugar', which was a delightful book about sugar.

"Oh, ah..."
Acerium unconciously matched his tilt of the head with one of her own.
"I wouldn't know. I've never tried them. I don't eat much meat, actually."
She smiled.
"It does sound interesting doesn't it?"

Yay, you won a token! 8D

Propriety and posture were completely forgotten in these moments, blue fabric flapping helplessly about as pattering paws launched the boil forward in a desperate, nigh-on airborne motion. "Aksajaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!" There was a rather noisy trill of glee, the only warning as hands wrapped themselves solidly around the lightning dragon, the host of this little booth, a booth that Thanatos, in his absolute elation, had quite forgotten about.

He'd been scanning booths for the past half-hour, seeing a few distantly remembered faces, but not the ones that had brought the pup here. It had seemed a tedious trek, poking his nose around, and being careful not to trip anyone else up in their merriment. Not that he was afraid of them or anything, no sirree indeedlie no! Than was definitely not intimidated by anyone else here, boil or ghoul alike!

Chest heaving with exertion as he tilted flushed features upwards, grinning widely, his good eye blinked rapidly for a moment before fixating on his older friend. "'Saja! Than came to visit, yes? Good?" He said it in such a way that an outside observer might wonder if this tongue was his first language, but those with a bit of a more familiar relationship with the Fae-hound, would know it was just his own peculiarity. "'Saja has not being quicklike to send fast-letters." He murmured, tail tapping out a quick tempo against the ground. Though their correspondence hadn't been frequent, Thanatos greatly looked forward to the dragon's replies. Home was...lonely, his family's very existence a tad less than cohesive.

Butting his head jovially against Aksaja's hand, he laughed softly, relief and joy intermingled. It didn't seem as though the dragon was mad at him, that having been the pup's chief fear concerning the lack of communication from the other boil, well that and that something terrible had happened to his friend. Which he was veryveryveryvery sure did NOT happen! And would NEVER happen! Because Aksaja was AMAZING and that would ensure that he was tougher than the terriblest of things. ^___________^ Yes. Naturally.

"Busy is all right, Than has been not-busy busy." There was a bit of huffing at that, ears drooping and nose wrinkling in the remembrance of long days of tedium. Couldn't get into school? Well study more had been the solution, one that the Fae-hound was not at all fond of, but was he one to argue with his sire? No. Never that. Than was most certainly not going to ever ever ever argue with Father. Not a peep. >:

"Butbut yes! Than has been okieslike other than the busybored." He hummed, still somewhat entangled with his friend. "And yesly! Than is here and be trying to get in. Made officiallies. Not person with only paper. Is a saaaaaad paper." He mourned, waving his guest pass at the tanned boil. The paper meant that he was temporary, and he'd have to leave with this affair was over. A shame he likely wouldn't have the time to see much more. Visits were like that. Hmph! If only it didn't take so long to convince Mum that trips to Amityville were not-scary and definitely not eatey-clawy-bitey as she seemed to think they were. Definitely not clawey-biteyness here. See? Only Aksaja!

At least this time he wasn't going into any Spooky-Houses. No. Nope. Not goin' back in there.

It was a rather belated realization that he was being dragged about by the other, that instant where the toes of his paws were almost lifted from the ground, that Thanatos realized he should probably take a step. Still somewhat adhered to the dragon, he padded along at his side, a hand on the other boil's arm in a friendly gesture, the idea of personal space on that had never fully occurred to the Fae-hound.

"Teaaaaaaaaaa!~" There was another energetic trill at that, his good eye coming alight as he realized what that meant. Beaming at his friend, he then placed a hand upon the table, looking to it, the chair, and then Aksaja again, before the most flustered of looks replaced the wide puppyish grin. "Ah! Can Than help? Does Aksaja need help? Or should Than be sitting? Ploppings?" And ears swiveling towards his host, his tail thumped once, twice, an irregular pattern, and then went to rest obediently against the leg of the nearest chair. He was all attention right now, trying to be absolutely-positutely the least of leastest burdens that he could manage! :3!

Guess the number? She loved these kind of games! X3 Natalia studies the jar of candy for a bit before trying to guess a number. She looked one more time before finally coming to an answer.

"Maybe there's 100 in there?"

She really didn't know...
