Welcome to Gaia! ::

To be honest, Eisheth was a bit disappointed Heidla didn't show any sign of happiness. The alchemist wasn't a big fan of the death priestesses, but at least she hoped she had a chance to melt the ice inside Heidla's heart, - at least a bit!

Instead, the priestess demonstratively addressed some silly ghoul; the alchemist hasn't seen her around, so she was probably a guest from another school. All right, she thought, let's play the game...

"Snooping around, enjoying the festivities?", she approached Miyako with a curiosity in her voice.

Miyako jumped when she was touched on the shoulder by someone. She quickly turned around to see Heidla standing behind her. "I..Im.. looking for someone dead.." She answered her. Unsure of what else to say. She was really nervous, this was the first person to actualy try to speak to her.

The bakeneko jumped once again, when she heard a random voice speak to her. "I..n-not snooping..? T-trying to find these.." she pointed to her list as she tried responding to Eisheth. The feline was feeling much more nervous, now that there were two people talking to her.

Alexander had danced his way back over to the group, again. He was scowling, and reached up to run fingers through his hair, having a glance around the gym as in his distraction it seemed like it was starting to fill up. "Horsemen." He simply stated, pointing to the death, famine, and war horsemen standing not far away. He needed the signature of a war horseman, but that one looked particularly grumpy, and he somehow doubted the large winged man would take very kindly to a student asking for his autograph.

But Alex was feeling bold, especially after being attacked twice by a landshark and managing to dodge it both times.

"HEY, WAR GUY!" He shouted over, not just daring to look at Shik, but to speak to him as well.

"WANNA SIGN MY SCAVENGER HUNT PAPER?" He was somewhat aware that he was likely sealing himself to a very unfortunate fate, but he was honestly also sick of being treated like dirt by most of the horsemen, especially considering how much he and his friends had been helping them.

And he was standing with the famine woman who as far as he knew was dating one of his best friends, as weird as that still was for him to think about, so he kind of hoped she might protect him......

Xiu had stood by quietly this whole time, seeming a little distracted (probably from all the land shark attacks). Her expression was distant as she stared off into space, but when she heard a certain someone yell at one of the horseman, her head immediately snapped around to face the zomboil.

"Wha--Alex! You shouldn't just--is that the horseman you just yelled at?"

The last part came out as a meek whisper as she actually turned and got a good look at the War horseman. At once, her ears drooped, and she carefully shuffled herself so that she was standing in front of Mayaa and Shar, the end of her tail puffed out in alarm.

Why, Alex, why would you do that.

Alexander just shrugged, and offered Xiu a reassuring smile. "It's fine. Seriously I'm pretty sure theyre not going to attack me. I mean, we're in the middle of the...." Oh right, gym. Hrmmmm......Ya okay maybe he hadn't thought this through.

Oh well, he'd gone this far, and he really needed that signature!

"PRETTY SURE HE'S ALL BARK AND NO BUTE ANYWAYS~" He said that more then loud enough for the man to hear, and then the zombie mocked hurt feelings at the stench comment, a hand clutching dramatically to his chest.

"Oh man, it hurts so much!" He frowned and then rolled his eye, giving a head shake.

"Bunch of jerks. What if I offered to spar you for it? If I win, I get the signature. If you win....well, I'm guessing I'll be dead, so you win?"

Blame it on the al-al-al-al-al-al-cohol!

Meanwhile, a certain blonde horsewoman with golden eyes and a very smirky face was lurking in the rafters high above. She had made a very hasty departure once shik was set free, but that by no means meant she was about to miss out on any fun.

She was struggling very hard not to laugh, just at the moment.

The man was cackling wildly as he zoomed across the gym, his sleeves streaming behind him like ribbons. Before he could get far, however, a sudden chill ran up his back. Slowly, he turned to look behind him, staring at Shik like a deer caught in headlights.

Σ(⊙n⊙; )

Uh oh.

Nopenopenopenope. Arms held up over his head, the horseman proceeded to sprint as far from the War horseman as he could get.

Zhi wasn't the only one getting a weird vibe of being watched. Shik just /knew/ the harpy herself was somewhere in this gods forsaken place, stalking him as usual. The problem was if, but /when/ she would strike.

Still he had to hand it to the zomboil for being daring enough to use his own bones. Giving the barest of nods, the horseman raced after Zhiqiang with a beat of his wings. "Get over here!"
