Viveka tilted his head as Valerian spoke. So, his daddy was nice and his big sister was a super big bully? He really didn't like the sound of that... But it was nice to know that he wasn't alone against the bullies. His roommate, though he had a family, had to deal with being pushed around like he was. It was kind of comforting and it almost made him smile.
"... I understand." He said, reaching out to touch Valerian's shoulder. "We both have big bullies in our lives... I think we should stick together and get bigger than the bullies, okay? That way they can't hurt us anymore."
He paused, noticing Sascha and Dahlia coming up toward them from the games, and sighed. Oh boy, the bully was back and she had someone to back her up! He looked to Valerian.
"I guess that's your daddy, huh?" He asked, pursing his lips. "... He looks tired."
Finally, after what seemed like eons according to Thomas, the other two workers returned from their break. They were chatting to each other and barely greeted him, but commented on how he was smiling instead of sporting that frown he had been wearing when they left him. Apparently his smile suited him better than his frown. He didn't really know how to respond to that. It was a very weird compliment, at least in his book.
"Okay, now that you're back, can you help me with these orders?" He asked, pointing to the cups. "Ten people want extra whipped cream on their hot chocolates and I only have two hands."
Theodora continued to hold onto Duma as they approached the entrance to the festival and tried not to cling too hard. She really didn't want him to go anywhere, which she knew was selfish of her. He had to find out where this little girl had run off to and she knew that she couldn't involve herself in this important matter. Still, she still felt disappointed and wished they had met up earlier in the festival. They could've walked together, talked more, maybe even won a few prizes for each other... It would've been so nice.
"... Does Saturday next week sound good for coffee?" She asked, breaking the silence again. "I don't have any tests coming up, so I'll be free from studying."
Duma noticed how tightly Theodora was holding onto him and couldn't help but smile. She obviously really liked him, which is what he wanted, and didn't wanted to leave his side just yet. However, what was more important to him now was finding Autumn and signing those final papers in the office. He was about to become a dad to a sweet little girl who was a mutant just like him. He didn't want to be a disappointment from the get go.
"Saturday sounds wonderful, Thea. I'll bring my guitar." He replied, giving her a quick nuzzle. "Maybe you'll sing along with me this time? I'd love to know if your voice is as beautiful as you are."
Decran finally caved and moved off to a novelty accessories booth. Who could go to a holiday themed festival and not come back without at least one holiday themed item. He moved through the setup and finally found a pair of reindeer horns that he liked (they were completely blue).
Syra
As Syra stood in line at the cotton candy place, she noticed that they were selling peppermint bark to go. Giving into her sweet tooth and the need/want to have something to munch on back at her dorm, Syra bought herself a package.
Finnley
Finnley moved off to a jewelry booth. After eyeing Jocey’s bracelet for some time, he had finally decided to snag one for himself. He picked out one with red beads and slipped it onto his wrist after paying for it.
Jocey
Jocey followed behind Finnley and decided that she wanted another bracelet. This time she bought a green one, so that it would match the first bracelet that she had bought.
Ishy
Ishy, once the bracelets caught her eye, decided that she would need to buy one to go along with her necklace. She searched until she found one with light blue beads. Admiring it, she smiled and slipped it on and headed off to pay for it. As she was paying for the bracelet, she noticed a purple finnekit plushie sitting out on display and couldn’t help but snatch it up to take home.
Tyas
Tyas moved through the various attractions and finally stopped at a game. Darts. Apparently you had to throw darts at balloons and pop them. She bought herself one go, which included five darts. Her first dart hit a bullseye and she opted to go ahead and take a prize, a bracelet with blue beads that had snowflakes painted on them. She took her other darts and sent them flying, hitting each one. As a prize for getting them all, she was allowed to pick out a plushie as a prize.
Vivian
After Vivian finished off her cider, she decided to stop by a sweets stand and pick up a back of peppermint bark. It was one of her favorite holiday treats and she couldn’t leave the festival without grabbing herself some.
Emine
Emine stopped at another candy booth, intent on finding her papa something else. When she spotted the peanut brittle, she knew she’d found exactly what she was looking for. Her father absolutely loved the stuff.
Noah’s ears twitched as he pushed his hair away from his face. Their first stop at the festival seemed to be a booth that had various enchanted items. His eyes lit up the instant they fell onto the glowing, bulb shaped necklaces. There were so many colors and so many options! He searched through them, unable to make up his mind until he came across a red one. It would show up wonderfully against his green sweater. He grabbed it from its display and took it over to pay for it. He thanked the person running the booth and eagerly slipped the necklace on.

Ryker grinned crookedly when Matty told him he liked that the grimm couldn't resist looking at the goblin's rear end. "Psh, like the kids are gonna know what's going on," he said with a laugh. When he lost the game, he pouted. "How could I have lost? I have awesome aim." His pout was interrupted by a quick yelp when his bum was smacked. Then he laughed and rolled his eyes. "I think you might be right, boo. Cuz obviously mama just didn't give me enough. Well. I got it where it counts," he said with a wink. He was terrible, and completely unrepentant.

Bibiana blinked when he said he got her something. "Oh! You didn't have to do that!" she said with a smile. She was curious to see what he had picked up for her, though. Leaning forward with her hands behind her back, she peered into his stocking as he dug through it. She giggled at some of the things he had picked up for himself as Nico skittered up on top of her head. "Aww, thank you!" she said when he produced a bracelet. "This one was one of my favorites! And now I have two! One for each wrist," she giggled happily. "Thanks, Cyril!" she beamed and hugged him.
Sid grinned as he managed to buy himself yet ANOTHER glowing bulb necklace. If Cora could see him now, she would probably be rolling her eyes. But he knew how she really felt about him. Well. He was pretty sure, anyway. He grinned as he thought about her and looked around. Spotting a game booth with a red fennekit plushie as a prize. He had a pretty good idea that Cora would love it. So, with the thought of winning a plushie for his girl who couldn't attend, Sid played the game successfully and tucked the adorable little plush into his stocking.
The hug startled him almost as much as the abrupt necklace around his neck. A light flush covered his cheeks as he hugged back with a small smile. "I'm glad you like it. . ." Cyril murmured, before letting go of her. Looking around, there weren't that many people around anymore. "There's not very many people around anymore. Did you want to stay or leave?" To his surprise, one of the attendants handed him a bucket of 'snowballs'. They looked relieved when he didn't immediately try to hand it back.

Whoever was giving out plants noticed that his was kinda nibbled on and gave him a new one. Ares looked back and forth between his two plants and his new kidden. He wasn’t sure he had wanted the first one, the second one was going to die a slow death too.

A green bracelet was her first creation, but it was soon joined by a red one. Jeanine was especially pleased with her two new bracelets. The festival was almost over, but she had time to make at least one more, she thought.

Gently grasping the bug, Maeva looked around to see if the owner was nearby. It didn't look like anyone was chasing it, but a nearby stall was giving out familiars as a prize. Carrying the bug, which had cuddled into her as soon as she held it, she went right over to see if it had come from there. Instead of taking the familiar from her, the stall owner congratulated her on her new familiar. He wouldn't hear a thing about taking it back when it was so comfortable with her. He even got her a cute bracelet as a congratulatory prize.
This was it. The festivities were finally coming to a close. Stalls were closing up and people were slowly starting to make their way out. It was actually rather bittersweet, but Miah still found herself smiling as she leaned against Alis gently.
With a sigh, she turned towards the baphomet, offering her a smile.
"Ready to get outta here, Alis?"
New items:
Alis was in a similar state to their roommate, seeming a little honestly sad as the festivities began to come to an end.
"Yeah... Yeah. Let's go ahead and get out of here before traffic gets too bad," they agreed with a nod, motioning the imp along. Alis had always enjoyed the Solstice celebrations, and it was sad that the holiday was almost over.
"Well, my dears, I think it's just about time we go ahead 'n' get outta here, yeah? I don't know about you guys, but I'd rather not be here when everyone decides it's time to go home, and then get stuck in traffic," the demon said with a grin, her arm snaking around Aerilon's waist as they began to walk.
New items:
"Yeah, I agree. The celebrations were great. I just wish the Solstice was longer, you know?" Braelyn said with a sigh, before a smile curled back on her lips, her gaze turning to look up at the other geist beside her.
New items:
Aerilon gave a shrug. "Eh, whatever. I guess I've had a good enough time. But come on, ladies. Let's go ahead and get outta here. I'll give the lot of you a ride if you need it."
"How come some people have antlers? I want antlers! Where can I get antlers?!"
The Fey was almost frantic, wanting to try and collect as many last-minute items as she possibly could. She knew that the Solstice was almost over, but she still had so many things to collect! For nearly ten minutes, Nissa found herself dragging poor Cerys around as she searched for the source of the cute antler headbands until she finally came across them.
"These are soooo cute!" the fey giggled.
New items:
"Yeah, they are,..." Cerys agreed softly, smiling as she looked down at the little plant pot in her hands. "This is cute, too. You'll help me take care of it, right?" She asked, looking up at the Fey who giggled, nodding from agreement.
It seemed like the festivities were almost over,... and Lilianne still had yet to find her 'other half'. The Litch grumbled softly as she patrolled the area, fiddling with the little earrings she had won from a quick game.
Naedia has got to show up at some point... right? Lili thought to herself, eventually letting out a sigh as she found a bench, quickly sitting herself atop the seat.
New items:
What the Litch didn't know was that Naedia had arrived. She had just gotten... distracted. The toys and plushies were absolutely to die for, and the young Nixie had a soft spot for such precious trinkets. As she began to walk through the Academy, she clutched a small Kidden plushie to her chest, smiling wide with delight. At first, she almost didn't notice the Litch, sitting atop a bench in the distance.
Well, so much for getting to the Solstice celebrations on time. Keelan could only sigh softly, his head shaking as he hopped out of the carriage along with a few other Freshlings, slowly walking up towards the academy to try and at least experience some of the holiday.
All in all, one couldn't complain too much.
"Well,... at least we're able to come see some stuff, right?" Keelan asked, looking to the other freshling beside him.
New items:
"Yeah... I guess so..." Eirynn said with a soft yawn, lifting one of their paws up to cover her mouth as she shuddered slightly as a result of the yawn. The young Freshling's rather large, fluffy tail flicked around behind her as she walked along with the group, slowly making her way towards one of the few remaining booths, where she spotted a pair of rather precious plushies.
"Oh... I want it. It's almost as big as me," the young girl said with a blink, a gentle smile curling on her lips as she stepped over.
