Did she like the bottles? Well, that was a loaded question as how Olivia found anything fascinating. The ghoul nodded with vigor at his question, even as they moved to a new area of the game area. "They were pretty," and shiny and different. She didn't have a bottle like any of the ones on display.
Nor did she have anything as impressive as the contraption before her. Olivia watched, eyes wide and aglow as Andrew grabbed himself a mallet and hit a certain spot on the machine thing. The gnome might not have been impressed, but she was. And she wanted to try. Which she did.
She seemed to really like the bottles. He would keep an eye out.
Instead of letting go he tapped at the machine again. Well that didn't help. but Olivia seemed to like the idea of glass more than stuffed animals anyway (she hadn't commented on those).
Ithi was so excited about the games she could hardly contain her excitement. She was almost skipping as she headed toward the little vampire ducks first, reaching carefully toward one...
...and she won! After her luck earlier she wasn't sure how this was going to go, but there it was, she had won two tickets! She nearly squealed with delight.
She hadn't because she didn't seem them just yet since the towering structure was the first thing to catch her eyes. And then mallets. And hitting. The gnome not so much, even as it taunted and tried to bring down their morale.
Olivia gave the thing one more shot before Andrew asked his question. "What else do they have?" She didn't know.
After her luck with the ducks she rushed to the ring toss. It took her a few tried to understand the rules, but before long she was poised, her tongue pinched between her teeth and ready to throw...
...each failed toss made her hiss lightly, but at least she managed to get two! The single ticket was pocketed quickly before she moved on, ring toss was decidedly not her favorite.

“Well, ducks…” which were on water. “That water shooting game.” He frowned more. That looked more dangerous. “Oh we could just go pop balloons.” He just realized how much he’d prefer to play that game.
Finally! She'd found the source of the loud "DING!" that would occasionally ring out through the night. At first it had startled her, but now she was very curious about it. After watching a few people try it, she smiled at the gnome and asked if she could have a turn. She crinkled her nose at the bored and uninterested response and took up the mallet to give it the best swing she could....
Ithi's lip trembled a little as they threw popcorn at her, but she wasn't going to lose heart! She could do this! She was sure of it! Squaring her shoulders and taking a deep breath she lifted the mallet once more...
...SHE DID IT!! She lept in the air with a hoot of joy, nearly dropping the mallet on her foot as she did. It was nigh impossible to hide the self-satisfied smirk as the gnome let her choose from the multitude of stuffed animals on the table. Most of them were cheaply made, but looked new enough except for a small, stuffed rabbit tucked into the back behind a lot of the other stuffed animals. One ear was flopped over, the boning that would have kept it straight up having long since broken, and it had a single black button eye left. A large mismatched patch was on its back and side, but the large puffball tail looked good as new. With a tender smile she picked up the small bunny toy and held it close and headed off to the next game.
The water shooting game, she could see the problem there - though hadn't she mentioned to him that as he would with fire, she would protect him from water? Olivia didn't really know the extent of the game, however. "Balloons are fine," that sounded like the game at scarentines.
And low and behold, it was! Just with a few differences. Knowing the game already, Olivia cued herself up at the intermediate section of the game and tried her luck. "Can we see the ducks later?" Because she didn't know that entailed water. But it was a different type of game she was unfamiliar with. Why were ducks needed? Was it a race? Did they throw them?
Given her luck with the ring toss, Ithi wasn't so sure that the balloon pop would work any better but she had to give it a try. After all, you can't win if you don't play, right?
...well that didn't go well at all! She had missed every single throw! She sighed sadly and shifted her weight from foot to foot before deciding to give it another try. It's not like it would hurt her to try again...
...well at least she'd gotten one of them! The gnome handed her a ticket and she scurried along her way. It seemed like the water gun race would have to wait till another time, most people seemed paired up and it didn't seem like something you could play alone. With a gentle pat to her bunny she headed back toward the actual dance to find something to nibble on. It had been an adventurous day and she was starting to feel quite hungry!
Thankfully, the ducks didn't show as much animosity towards Tomoko as they did to him. "A-ah!" His eyes widened as she suddenly shoved the duck in his face. "It's okay, no harm done, right?"
He tentatively dipped his hand down again for another try, and this time, actually managed to seize a hold of a duck. Grinning, Erebus faced his duck in the direction of Tomoko's. "I think they'd much rather talk to each other than to us, really."

Kettil wandered in carrying Freya on his back. The first stop he made was at the game with the duckies, gently he set Freya down onto her feet, "Games!"
He then reached out and plucked a duck and ignored the complaints as he peered at the number he got, "Yeah! Won something." He put the indignant duck down after.
