Viveka had no idea why he'd come to the festival. There were crowds everywhere and he hated crowds. It was like being put in a tiny box that moved around at random and you kept having to apologize to the moving parts if you bumped into them. It wasn't a good place for him to be if you asked him, but... Something about getting free stuff just dragged him forward. He had nothing back at his dorm, except for the things he borrowed from his roommate. He really wanted to get some things of his own.
"Poor Flitterat, all cooped up in that stocking." He muttered, giving the animal's nose a pat. "It must be so hot in there. I'll get you out of there as soon as I get back to my dorm."
Gracious Nine, this festival was a mob scene! Thomas could barely wrap his head around the amount of people that were darting this way and that, espescially the children. Who was watching all these little runts? What if they tried to steal things or got into fights? Did people expect someone like him to step in if things got rough? Certainly not, he was a proper man! He didn't get involved with things like that!
He shook his head as another three kids raced past him like they were on some sort of energy increasing spell and trudged onward to the drink stand. Hopefully they had something worth drinking here, or else he'd be very cross.
"Hm, not bad, but my maid could do better." He scoffed, taking another sip of his cider and glancing to the people in the booth. "Want me to ask if she could give you a lesson or two as a reasonable price? I'm sure they'd be delighted to help you improve."
Theodora had been at the festival from the very beginning, hoarding all sorts of things in the stocking she'd picked. However, these things weren't for herself, but rather for the children who couldn't make it to the festival. She knew that there were plenty of people who wanted to come but weren't able to, and that it would be a nice surprise to find some mementos in the morning. She'd leave them skillfully by doors, in mail boxes, and on desks, then hide so she could see their reactions! It would be such a wonderful surprise!
"Ah! Where did you come from?" She squeaked, flailing toward the Cockatriel that had perched on her head. "My horns aren't food, you odd creature! Come off of there this instant!"
Duma rushed back to the festival after taking his break and jumped back to the booth he had been manning. There was something very important he needed to tend to, concerning a little girl at the festival he was looking to adopt, but the girl herself was missing in action! Where had she run off to? Surely someone had been watching her? How else was she supposed to get to the meeting tonight?
He shuffled his things around and quickly closed the drapes on his booth, before noticing Theodora walking by. Wasn't she that cutie from the cafe a few weeks ago? He grinned.
"Thea! I'm so glad to see you!" He called, waving toward her. "I need your help! How good are you at finding kids?"
Items:
Just pretend there are things here LOL (Duma is looking for Autumn who is with a caretaker and is totally safe. However, he doesn't know this, the poor derp)
Hailey had dragged poor Malachi to just about every game close by that she could find. He took it like a champ, but she could tell he was getting a little flustered. While taking her turn at a ring toss game, she pondered how she could make this stuff up to him... the dragging him around to everything he'd rather not do thing. It wasn't until she saw a nearby stand that she had an idea! Without bothering to finish the game she had started, Hailey darted off to do what she wanted!... per the usual.
Malachi, for a lack of a better word, was now feeling a bit frustrated. He really wanted to make Hailey happy, but it was hard when he was being pulled all over the place to things he really wasn't having fun with. Though one could question if he was bad at the games because he wasn't having fun, or wasn't having fun because he was bad at the games. And yet, before he knew it, Hailey had run off again.... "Why does she always do that?" he asked himself with a sigh.
It didn't take Hailey long to get back to Malachi... not that the short amount of time she was away matter much. Looking down, she pulled her arms from behind her back and offered him a potted plant. "Sorry you're not having fun with the games... but I'm really happy you're playing..." she said, offering a smile with the plant.

It wasn't long after that Dodger had found himself feeling alone again. It's not that he wanted to ditch his new friend, but the fact that he was set to run all over the place for things made it hard to stick around someone else right now. He pulled out his phone, pondering sending Eileen a text, but then again... she was part of the reason he was out and about right now! The chance to, well, semi-gift shop! But when he heard some yelping nearby, he couldn't help looking around for the sound. Then he came across a cute little Fennekit! He scooped it up and smirked. "Oh man... I can only imagine how Kabosu would feel if I brought you home..." but then again, his puppy would probably love the extra company! "Okay! Well we sure can't leave you out here by your lonesome now can we?~" he said, cuddling the Fennekit.

Bobbi braved a few more games after winning the first one back to the festivities. It was pretty exciting since the Litch was actually doing surprisingly well for xemself! Why, xe even managed to win a potted plant and another one of the grey tabby plushies! But, as everyone knows, the lucky streak has to end at some point, and oh did it. Xe actually managed to hit the Nightmare running the dart game in the leg. Granted, they were using the plastic darts, but the fact that it could have done some actual damage if they were the real deal was enough to make Bobbi put the darts down and step back. After taking a good few steps back, Bobbi turned around and quick-stepped it out of there. When xe and Marshmallow were a good bit away, Bobbi couldn't help the giggles that were coming out. "Oops!" xe said as xe laughed and pet xyr fluffbug.
Smirking, quite proud of himself and the fact that he managed to convert Ryker's line of thinking from college kid foods -- so what if they were! -- to food that, y'know, was actually edible! "'Was' for certain~ Can't let my new roomie live on that junk anymore.
The failed game was pretty fun, especially getting to be overly dramatic, but Matty was still somewhat a poor loser. He stuck his tongue out, fussing with the beads around his wrist. "Well, I'm apparently not so hot at these things. You should just win them for me~"
But as luck would have it, quite the adorable distraction found its way to the boys. Now he couldn't quite tell if the Grimm's question was genuine or teasing just yet, but as that cute little puff was in Ryker's arms and all shades of happy, there wasn't a snowball's chance anyone could say no! "The more the merrier, I say! I have a couple of 'em that are gonna be following me to your place." He made face baby talk faces as he petted and fluffed the little fennekit. "Hewwo precious lil thing. Yes you are. Oh yes you are! Your daddies are gonna spoil you! Oh yes we are~" and he grabbed up a little purple plush like the one he had given Ryker earlier, having it touch noses with the pup as he played with it.
The demon spent who knows how much longer as he sat there and read the new book. It was far too interesting to put down. But when his butt began to protest that it had been wet and cold for far too long, he got up and brushed his free hand across his backside. "Oh dang..." he grumbled. Why hadn't he gone back to a bench? Oh... right... because that would have meant reading a romance novel in front of the general populace. Ugh! Tucking his book away, Exodus slipped his jacket off and tied it around his waist. Yes he was wearing black pants, but that didn't mean it couldn't be noticed that he had wet butt. He decided to wander back to a book booth and pick through the selections again. He might as well take advantage of free and cheap books while he had the chance!
Rex Strutted into the main hall, Hands on his hips taking in his surroundings, why weren't their nightmares fawning over his excellence he was new and deserved a little attention! Okay so maybe they'd been there for a few days... or so, and Perhaps he was a little fashionably late to the event, but they should be no less impressed by his presence!
He hurumphed and spied a Table of free 'Goodies', Free was most definitely his favourite price!
Which Stocking to choose, he liked the look of the black one, but the Orange 'Jingle' one really called out to him!
He looked at the trinkets on the table beside the stockings, he really fancied a game of indoor snowballs, but turthly he was a little too shy to approach someone and ask them to play with him!
Maybe a bag of spearming and Peppermint candies would be a good start!

Arcadia giggled and grabbed a red boa off the pile, she was feeling P.darn festive in itt!
Also she was trying to cut down on the clutter in her room, but that Kidden plushie, for real was calling to her!
Gwen frowned "Not a choice? Well since we just met I won't push you to tell me what you mean, but you can if you like" Gwen said her tone serious as usual. Gwen didn't mind the freshlings uncertain answer to her offer of friendship, Gwen was only able to make the offer because she was thrilled and excited about making discovers. Any other time Gwen would rather be hiding behind a science book than doing anything social. "It's alright you can take your time, I'm not good at social situations either, I prefer facts and science over emotional things." Gwen mused on how she wanted to respond to Anara finally giving her, her name. Then she decided on "I am glad to have met you Anara." Gwen nodded "I hope I can give you more plushies and have to help me learn more about mutants." Gwen said with a nod. Gwen smiled "I can buy you one now, or perhaps win one for you??"
