Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Limbo -> Beach Bar!))

Curious at the silence suddenly placed between them, Namini looked up and then followed Josh's gaze outward, falling upon her brother yet again. Beginning to open her mouth to murmur a thoughtful response, hopefully to calm whatever anger had been stirred in Josh, she turned to see that the boy was already diving for his second turn. Deciding he'd be fine without her and that it might release the confusing tension between them, Namini found herself waving goodbye and wandering towards the beach bar. Making sure not to forget her hoodie, she scanned the nearly deserted area for anyone interesting looking, perhaps another lovely Raevan, or Eiry!! Alas, the will-o-wisp was nowhere to been but, what luck! His guardian was here, and apparently lonely. Doing her best to sneak up to the younger teen, Namini finally placed playful hands over his eyes and laughed sweetly, wondering if he would remember her voice, "I haven't seen you in such a long time, Isi! Can you guess who it is?"

Hopefully the boy wouldn't scold her for her rude childishness like David usually did.

((Limbo – Round 3))

Ebony was quite pleased with how she was doing so far in the event, though she did feel a little pang of apathy towards Namini when she was the first to be eliminated. ‘Poor girl…’ And she had to bite her lip from laughing when some blue and silver Raevan took his first turn and practically launched himself into the pole rather than ease under it. Though she empathized with the others, she couldn’t be bothered by their plights for this was a competition after all and she was in it to win it.

The woman took a few deep breaths before walking up to the stick again. She frowned when she’d noticed David off to the sidelines waving and grinning at her. She snubbed him then, closing her eyes and turning her nose upwards before making her way under the pole. Hopefully he hadn’t thrown her off her streak. And if he had…well she would deal with him later.

"You took place in the paintball game? How did your team do?" Zave looked interested a little bit. Forgetting that the line was getting shorter as they talked. He was asleep during the entire match after all.

Studying the line of the shoulders as Lucia bent back, Zave started to draw pictures in his mind. "Oh... I see... I didn't even realize I was twisted like that. I was in such a hurry to catch up, and couldn't find the limbo line. Thank goodness it was just the first round and I couldn't be eliminated for that."

Zave breathed a sigh of relief. "So I'm supposed to bend like this...?" Zave leaned back, but mostly from where an abdomen would be... causing his ribbon to just up at a dangerously high level. He had better get this under control... his second turn was closing in quickly.

Damien waited in line, looking around. There wasn't much to do while in line, but since he felt like doing something, he leaned back under the pole as his turn came, and went under the pole.

After sliding through his turn, he looked around, looking for some kind of company that he might be able to join. Spotting a really pretty blonde haired raevan (Melisande), he walked over, rather nervous that he was about to talk to another one of the beautiful creatures. After all, its not like they all had the same personality; one of them may could just not like talking to humans, and he didn't want to avoid that possibility.
Approaching the aforementioned beauty, he spoke innocently, "hi, you look really pretty! And you're good at Limbo-ing; have you done it before?"

Zayne looked around before spotting one of the watchers who had called out to his Raevan before (Dr. Tsu), putting the dishes of eaten food to their designated places, he scooted over and sat beside the doctor, following his gaze to the Raevans that were participating in the Limbo event. "It's pretty interesting to see the Raevans participating in such event. "

Niksia shrugged thoughtfully at the man, he wasn't acting too weird so she was at least mostly happy to let him stand with her. She could be strange about people sometimes but repeated attendance to events that pushed her boundaries had helped. For his sake the sun had made her less nervous than usual and the redhead gestured vaguely with her gloved hands, ditching her sandals at her feet.

'I stumbled on it by accident and I've been trying to attend events ever since. So mostly I come to watch other people, it's easier for me than some things.'

A faint smile crossed her face at his attempt to make her feel more comfortable. What must she look like to other people? The amusement the thought caused appeared in her voice as she responded.

'Not why you came but where from? Don't tell me everyone here has an interesting background. I just get that feeling sometimes... Oh, I think it's my turn to limbo! Darn it.'

Sand kicked up under her feet as Niksia made her way to the lowered bar, feeling a bit better about the contest now. She suspected that didn't bode well for her results, but slid under the bar just the same...

((Oooooo!))

How painful it was to be right sometimes. Niksia caught a bare foot in an overly loose patch of sand and tried too hard to stop herself falling on her backside. As she stumbled briefly in correction and nearly got it together again her shoulder bumped the bar heavily and she landed facing the wrong way, the victim of an ill attempted turn on the way. The bar managed to shudder as it landed behind her, making an impressive dent in the sand.

At least it had been mildly artistic, but her choice of skirt reminded her why she hadn't wanted to land like that in the first place. After setting the bar back in its place she gave a little bow, arms folded across her chest, the red haired woman fled back to the relative safety of the sidelines again.

'And that's what happens when you rush.'

((Limbo))

Daring move on his part, venturing into shark infested waters. She folded her arms over her chest and gave a chilling look towards the man. The glowing glint from earlier no longer shone instead a shroud of dark clouds masked her eyes. Ebony couldn’t tell whether this was a compliment or rather a statement attesting to David’s narcissistic nature. Perhaps it was both.

She couldn’t leave to avoid the male otherwise forfeiting the event, and Ebony Shade did not back down from an already accepted challenge. Yet she could simply ignore David, though that also came with problems as she could tell that a man like this was not easily ignored. Thus she sighed and addressed the other, albeit rudely, her voice coming in smooth, crisp British tones. “I make my own luck. So I’d thank you to keep yours to yourself. And in case your memory is lacked, I told you that flattery won’t get you anywhere.” That last part was a lie of course. Ebony always responded well to flattery because she too was something of a narcissus.

Altair heaved yet another massive inner sigh of relief. The question he was somewhat scared of answering had been tossed out of the window completely. Grinning widely about that fact, he went on to talk about where he was from, a much easier-to-talk about subject. "That sounds really cool," he said, keeping the smile on his face. "I've got an...interesting family history. In a sense. I was born and raised in England, and so I've got a pretty thick accent and I speak like a Brit, with slang a such. My dad's dead, long story, but I live in a flat directly above my mum. She's kind of off her rocker, so I take care of her," he said with a laugh. "Love her dearly, though," he added, shuffling ahead as the line moved.

"Oh, my turn, now, is it?" he asked himself as Niksia was eliminated, looking over at her and mouthing 'sorry.' Approaching and doing another good-lcuk stretch, he strutted below the pole, taking his time after noticing how Niksia's fall was due to rushing.

The Chinese man felt his cheeks begin to ache as his smile continued to push aggressively against them. Finally, he was back in the game. Carefully taking in her sudden, silent embarrassment David chuckled loudly, finally releasing Ebony from his analyzing gaze and shifted his eyes towards the other limbo-ing females. There was an absolutely angelic looking blonde with a slight bump at the end of her dissolved torso, perhaps she had been in another event?, and then there was the seductive catgirl from earlier. Watching the second's behaviour, though she was merely helping out another Frei with limbo-ing techniques, David decided...he really didn't care whether he corrupted their innocent shells or not. But perhaps verbalizing his dirty mind was a bit much for such a family-friendly event. Trailing behind Ebony at the back of the line, he playfully touched the ends of her hair and drew them close to his lips, whispering, "You've got a dirty mind, Ebony. It's not like I was going to say how amazing your bust is or anything. I was simply going to say that your hair also compliments your body. It clashes well with the sun kissed color of your skin. Or is that still an indecent thought?"

David let the few violet strands slip from his fingertips as he took a step back, as if admiring his work. He could tell the woman was quite flattered, though she would probably never admit it.
