Gaston, the stallion he was, came in being carried by three or four servants, a new habit he had picked up on by advice of his dearest brother! Thankfully, Jade, that sad little maid, had managed to get out of carrying her employer because she was needed for a much more important job! She had been with Gaston for much longer than all his other employees and, thus, was trusted enough to handle the bigger duties! Such as wheeling in the tree that Florence VIII laid flatly ontop of, his tail falling limp below him and dangling in the wind idly. He was normally pretty active early in the morning, but Jade had been smart enough to spike the animal's food with cough syrup, thus making the creature sleep for a good many more hours than usual! Just because she really didn't want to deal with a freaking lemur. Once they were all inside the field and towards the center, the stages for the different animals, the stands, the few early NPCs, and, of course, Gaston's throne all set up around them, the man ordered himself to be lowered into his chair, which his servants did eagerly. The traveler's tree had been set down beside him, where the young Florence slept peacefully.
~~~
What? Mao pass off the chance to show the world just how magnificent his cat was?! Never! So, of course, Mao had come to the festival! Though, he already knew Newt was a magnificent feline that was smarter than several more people ever could hope to be and didn't really need some silly contest to prove, this was more to only beat Zhi and her dumb leeches. He hadn't seen the girl much since she had moved from the shed and he was a bit bitter over the fact that she hadn't come scurrying back crying about how the world was a hard place and begging to help him on his farm again.. Yes, this would be bonding time for the both of them! Which would always mean in the Xiqui family that they would stare at each other challengingly and compete in the hopes of mocking one another later. Zhi had come in next to the doctor with a small bowl, containing her favorite leech, while Mao had Newt pacing beside him. It would appear to be loyalty that made the cat stay, buut, really, Newt was just miffed that he had been taken from his new bed and was aiming to drive the man insane by mewling nonstop. It was only working on Zhi, however, so Mao didn't seem to mind it much.
~~~
Junior came alone.. as would be expected. He didn't really have many people to hang around with and, well, Kade was busy being depressed or angry, Theresa was a little too lazy to come with him, and Jacob had been acting really funny all week! Junior was pretty sure it was because he was mad at him for letting him get out during the Tomato Festival.. Oh, well, at least Zap was with him! Even if the rock was pretty angry that he had been left at the park awhile back. No matter how many times Junior had tried to apologize, the stone did nothing but berate him about how dumb and useless he was.. It made the boy slump with every step, but at least he was trying to make it up to Zap. He would help him win the contest and.. and then the rock would be happy! Yes, it was perfect! Junior knew Zap was a good pet! The best around! So this would be easy! Even if that man had a monkey.. and that girl had a.. cool fish thing.. and that man had a cat.. His face fell with every new animal he saw, holding the rock closer to his chest self consciously.
~~~
Catrina had come in.. Oh, for heaven's sake, did anyone not expect this? She was here to enter herself! She had thrown hints at her brothers all week by doing tricks around the house, cuddling with them, and just overall being the best pet ever, but, nooo, Neil wanted to enter his dumb old mouse and Robert looked like he was planning on doing his stupid small dog! What made any of those better than Catrina?! She was the best cat around and here they were choosing other stupid animals over her! It was enough to irritate the cat! So much so that she had stormed off to the festival ahead of them just so she could enter herself and then beat their stupid 'better' pets! ..And after they had made her lose the Tomato Festival.. She sulked by herself in a patch of tall grass, her arms folded over eachother while her legs stuck out straight ahead of her. Only her ears and some of her eyes could be seen outside of the patch, which made her hiding almost perfect! Then she would swoop out when the contest started and show them all up! ..Jerks.
~~~
Ah, maybe this arrival wasn't as expected as the rest? Benedek came walking in with a paper bag draped over one, folded arm, as per usual. But, instead of just candy inside of it, there was something even better~ A supreme pet that would surely let him win the contest and whatever prize it may be! He had gotten the ingenious idea while rolling on the sidewalk outside of the government offices, when a poster advertising the upcoming festival smacked him in the face. Yes, it was faaate that he enter this with his favorite pet! He laughed not-so-quietly at himself with a pat to the paper sack, dripping with some sticky, reddish liquid. ..Yeah, that kind of sticky, reddish fluid.

Finally! The Animal Festival! This was a festival perfect for the Park family! It seemed that their collection of unusual pets would finally pay off~ Too bad Daniel wasn't in town anymore, he was really looking forward to entering Ultraman, his sugar glider. But internet was more important to him than winning, so he had left, and his siblings' sympathy didn't last long. Alex led the Park family back, a slight frown on his face. He was judging, apparently, something that he wasn't particularly thrilled to be doing. Just because he cooked animals didn't mean that he knew animals at all! But he had been picked, too late to change, and he might as well grin and bear it. Err... frown and bear it. That was a much more comfortable setting for him.
River hurried after him, holding onto Jaeja tightly. The little fox, every once in a while, would attempt to make a run for it, and possibly eat Elliot's pet. Even though the fox's leash was on, River still didn't trust the adorable thing, so she carried her. At some point, Jaeja had ended up with the front half of her body on River's shoulder, and looked quite content to have such a nice view.
Elliot was last, with Bokonon in his harness, hopping quickly next to her. He had been nervous for a good while, since he had never been out of the house before, and Jaeja ALWAYS made him nervous. But during the long walk to the festival, he had gained confidence, and leapt over the ground in long strides. It felt good to stretch his legs~
Natalia and Rory had been excited for this festival as well! At least, Nat was. Sure, she was disappointed that you could only enter one pet per person, and there were only the two of them, but it worked out for the best. Yossarian, the adorable dork he was, had rolled in something poisonous and had a bit~ of a skin rash. No big deal, it would heal up fast, but it meant that he wasn't at his full beauty! Natalia strode into the festival, her hand tightly holding onto the leash of Zipper. He was the most well behaved of the three, but he was still a huge dog! And Natalia wasn't that big!
Behind her, Rory struggled to contain Piero. Why couldn't he have gotten Zipper? That dog was nice and polite! Rory didn't like dogs to begin with, but he could have handled a dog who had good manners. Piero was strong, and not lady-like at all! (Sort of like Nat?) The black Great Dane strained at the leash, and it took Rory all he had to not let the rough fabric slip from his grasp. He didn't want to be here at all! But Natalia had bullied him into coming, and also to enter one of her dogs. Natalia and her goddamn dogs.

Like for almost every festival on the island, Gladice was there. But why was an old woman without a cat at an animal festival? Why, it was easy! She had to judge the chickens! Well, poultry, avian, bird, those things with feathers. She wasn't particularly trilled about it, but eh, it was a good outing. At least she didn't have to taste anything weird. She just had to say if the bird looked pretty or not, which should be relatively easy. Walking next to her was her Grandson... no, not Keith, that one was still at the Clinic in an almost vegetative states. He was only responding to a huge ammout of pain, usuallly by twitching, or one in a while make a sudden movement before changing position and then returning to his wall-starting state for ovr five hours.
So, no, it wasn't Keith that was walking next to her, but her other grandson, Yoakim. The boy had returned to the island when he had heard that his brother and his wife's sistr had both been admited to the clinic. They weren't sure just how long they were going to stay, but it was going to be at least a season, that much was sure. Yoakim didn't have an animal either, but he had to get out of the house and, he figured that this would be a nice family outing... Well, he wasn't sure if Ellie was going to come, since there were still a lot to clean in the house, but he needed to get out, and Wilhelm was starting to get restless, so he had choose to go to the festival with the boy. Father-son bonding time! Or son drolling on father. Same difference.
Walking next to them was yet another member of the LeBlanc family. Was it Alanis? No, the girl wasn't there today. It was the other Leblanc member. Everyone's favouite LeBlanc, who never really went with her husband name since she preferred her own maiden name of Cunningham. Yup, It was Judith! And she wasn't there only to look around. No, she was here to win! Does she have an animal, you ask? Of course she does! It usually lived in the basement of the school, preying on the poor people Judith sent there thought the trap in her office. Walking next to her was the black panther, Florence Zero. Everyone should fear them both.
===========
Catrina had been right when she had believed that her brothers would have entered their respective pets, for her they were, Neil and Robert! Like usually, Robert had his dog Branky inside his coat. The pooch was just really too stupid to walk by itself, but Robert didn't care. He was still cute and knew the smell of misteries. As for Neil, he would of course enter his mouse. This time, however, instead of being on his hat like usually, Mister BoJangle was riding next to Neil on his mini Scooter! Ah, it really was a genius mouse!
==========
Also there was Freja. She had debated for a while to know which one of her friends to enter the festival. Had first, she had asked Charlotte, since they were the bestest friends, but the Queen Spider had more important business to attend too. Then, she had asked Arthur the Rat! Surely a famous explorer like him would win the contest! But the rat was nowhere to be found. She had then thought about Boris the Bullfrog, but had rejected the idea right away. He was too grumpy. The only other one she could ask was Gunther the octopus. Well, ask was a big word. She had just dragged his thank to the town square. Thankfully, it was right across her shop where Gunter was always trying to commit suicide resting. The octopus didn't seem very pleased about that, but eh, cephalopod didn't have a choice!
===========
Another one who didn't have a choice were Reinbach's pets! Oh, of course, being Gaston's brother, the man had pets of his own. Thankfully, he didn't share his brother's love of exotic animals. No, he just preferred very beautiful one. Another difference from Gaston was that the man was actually taking care of his animals and giving them everything they wanted! Just look at them! Napoleon the white horse and Lac Virginite the peacock were obviously well fed! Awh, such luck had their animals to be pets of someone as wonderful and caring as Scolteheim Rienbach the Third!

♥ • • Celeste xoxooxoxo
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ As soon as they reached the feild, the satchel at her side began moving, almost as if the poor thing was having a stroke. In reality, it was just Azriel, bumping and nosing about in an attempt to get Celeste's attention. He so did not want to be in that satchel anymore. What did she think he was? A cat for heaven's sake? No way. He was a ferret and he needed room to spread his legs and run... or uhm hop as it would be in his case.
Laughing at his antics, Celeste gingerly opened the bag and lifted the furball out of her bag. She brought his nose close to hers for a quick kiss, which Axriel of course wiped off with quick little paws and said, "Now I know this festival is for you, but stay cloase okay? I don't need you going off and getting eaten." And with that she set him on the ground, knowing he was smart enough not to wander to far from her sight.

Gemma, however, had no pet. She came to the festival merely as an spectator, nothing else. Also, she rationalized, that way there was no way she could lose! Score! Not to mention all the cute pets she'd get to see, and-- did that b***h seriously just bring the panther? Oh yes, Judith. She had not left a good impression on the Gem, who remembered the Treasure Hunting festival with only bitter feelings. Ah, but alas, Crimson's team won... so, that was cause for celebration, right? She had tried to go congratulate him, but it was getting late and Matthew would have been angry. So, she had to leave. And since that festival, Gemma hadn't seen Crimson at all! Thankfully, that meant he didn't know of the Tomato Festival fiasco; where she lost so easily. Nor would he know of her new tattoo, either. So much new things to talk about!
Maybe he'd be surprised to find Gemma had gotten a new tattoo? She hoped he wouldn't pull a Matt, who was so very angry his face had turned as red as a tomato when she came home! No worries, Crimson was a gentleman~ And he was bound to come to this festival, if only because he loves animals so much! Honestly, how could a vet miss out on an animal-related festival? He HAD to be there, in case some poor defenseless animal got hurt. Of course, it wouldn't hurt if someone shot that panther with a tranquilizer gun. And with that, she moved a ways to the side. Musing on how awesome it would be if the panther had eaten Mao that day. After a few more minutes of that, she simply went along to mingle with nameless NPCs who would think her an idiot.

Crimson entered the festival grounds with Rally's leash wrapped around his hand. The animal festival was a great time to show off his new puppy. Well, sure she was a year old, but that was still kind of a puppy. Regardless, it also gave him someone to pet and talk to while he was standing alone at the festivals that he couldn't seem to stay away from. He rubbed her head at that moment and allowed her to lick his fingers while they walked through the field. The place was really beautiful, it had a gorgeous view and was rather roomy. Crimson glanced around from the view to the people that were standing around, trying to weigh the competition. He was feeling rather competitive maybe a nice talk with someone would calm his rage. He glanced from the pets to the owners and spotted Celeste. He smiled and tugged gently on Rally to bring her from her sitting position. "G'day, love." He nodded to Celeste, quickly taking his gaze down to Rally, "Sit, Rally." He rubbed down the back of her head in praise as she sat onto the grass.
_______________________________________
Xeiro was holding Beatrice's hand gently, leading her into the field. He felt terrible about not being able to buy her a pet, so the Animal Festival was the next best thing. She didn't even have the slightest clue where they were at this point. She just knew that they were going on some sort of an adventure. He loved the moments when he could surprise her like this and get to spend time with his little sister. He was never more grateful for businesses being closed during festivals. "Here we are, Beez. The animal festival." He looked down to her with a smile and ruffled her hair with his free hand.
_______________________________________
Beatrice continued walking alongside her brother, she hated being kept in suspense. But, once he told her where she was, she was glad she hadn't known before. That was just soooo exciting! Her big brother on one hand and Alphonse on the other at the animal festival?! Could this day get any better?! She looked around with pure excitement coursing through her. There were so many completely adorable animals! So much that she would need to investigate. "Look at all the animals, Xy!!!" She tugged on his arm and continued looking around the field with a huge smile.
_______________________________________
Raiden held his cigarette delicately between his lips, walking next to Zell. The weather was rather good for a festival such as this, and great for Lucy to get out with the Niami siblings. He looked around for anyone he knew, honestly hoping to see Dante. That was the only reason he decided to come with his sister to this festival. He had witnessed a couple times now how he melted at the sight of furry little critters, surely he'd be here. He tried to forget all about it, though, and continued walking in silence savoring his cigarette. He was more of a bodyguard than anything else at these festivals. He looked down to Lucy who was prancing happily through the field between them and smiled. He was even more glad to get her out of the house at that moment, especially if she were to win.
_______________________________________
Zelynity smiled at Lucy, she looked even more happy once she was in the field that came up to her chest. Zell was glad to get to come to another festival, one that she would even get to participate in this time around! She looked over to Raiden, he seemed as though he were looking for someone. She shrugged it off, "Do you think we have a chance, Raid?" She gave Lucy another smile, as she attempted to make small talk with her brother. She finally found a spot that he thought was suitable for waiting and took a seat on the ground to scratch behind Lucy's ears.

Noelle stammered, pulling her sheep friend on a leash. They were required unfortunately. She'd read it off of the handily translated flyer sent to anyone with animals. The event organizers didn't want runaway pets, apparently. She could see where they were coming from though. The owner of a runaway would probably blame whoever chose to make the event, and chaos would ensue. Yep. Noelle stood, confused, in the middle of all the animals and the crowd that brought them here. Maybe it was a bad idea to come here alone... Well, that was a stupid idea though, who else would she come with? Or rather, who would come with her?
Noelle wiggled her toes in her ballet flats. She wanted to take them off. Feel the grass. But... she needed to make a good impression. She idled around, petting Wander's soft fur. She smiled at the feel of it. He'd just taken a bath, as one of the areas the animals were being judged on were cleanliness.

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
After a quick wander around the feild, hopping ferret in tow, to look at all of the other animals that had been toted out for the festival, Celeste came to a stop a little apart from the others. Azi was just as happy to sniff around in this large feild as he had been back at their room at the inn. Though he did notice that their were less hiding places out here, and considerably less things to steal. He would have to be extra sneaking if he were going to leave this place with a souvenir.
Celeste was watching Azriel, a bemused look on her face as he rooted around the ground. Hearing a very familiar australian accent Celeste felt the warm smile tilt her lips even before she brought her bright eyes up to meet his. "Hello to you too~" She said, truely happy to see him. She liked her boss a lot and rarely saw him outside of work. It was always nice when she did. Seeing the beautiful afghan at his side Celeste "Ooooo"-ed in admiration and automatically dropped into a crouch, slowly offering her hand to Rally, to let the dog sniff her before she tried to pet her. Looking up at Crimson she smiled again. "I didn't know you had a pet! She...he?" Rally could be a guy name and she wasn't about to go searching for the answer. "is beautiful." Dropping her gaze back to the dog she spoke to her too. "Hello there." And then, without even looking his way, her eyes bright with amusement as she looked at Rally, "Don't even think about it Azi..."
The ferret looked up and back over his furry little shoulder, then put his face back to the ground as if he were ignoring her. His rooting did bring him back in her direction though.

Reinbach had been ready to go see his brother in order to ask him why he was bringing such cruelty on his, obviously underfed, lemur, when somethign else cough his attention! Something else than his dearest brother Gaston? Yes! And for something like that to happen, it had to be a thing of beauty! A beauty close to those of the Gods! (that is, Gaston's family). Leaving Napoleon and Lac Virginite behind, since... well, one would only need to look at them to understand why they weren't the kind of animals to follow their masters around, he made his way toward Crimson. Who cared if he was busy talking to some peasants girls! "Ah! Such beauty! Truly Grandiose! Ah! Look at those hair! Look at those nails! What a fancy gown! What fancy hair! Superb! Magnificiant! Splendicimo! C'est magnifique!" He then proceeded to applaud! Yes! Reinbach was applauding someone! Ah! Such beauty! He would need to make a statue in it's honour!

Mao fell into a stunned silence after Judith approached and spoke to him, the cat at his feet quieting for a.. somewhat similar reason. If the cat was wearing pants, he'd likely be shitting them at that very moment as he stared up into a gaping, slobbery cavern of a mouth. Ah, but he had his dignity! Dignity enough to hiss and dig his claws into Mao's leg, dragging himself up at a surprising speed to continue his spitting at the panther on Mao's face. Nothing like a set of claws and fur to get a man out of his stupor! The Chinese man had instantly smacked the cat off of his shoulder, Newt tumbling over and down.. down.. down, until his claws had caught a hold on the lower part of Mao's shirt. There, the cat simply.. hung off of him in a tense mess of irritation. Mao finally allowed a small wince. He would need to.. disinfect that later and probably kill a cat. For now, he put his attention onto the fan girl inside that more excitable part of his mind, squealing and flailing her schoolgirl arms in pure joy. Yes, Mao's adoration for the woman was akin to a fan girl. Anyone surprised? Didn't think so.
“Newt is among the purest of Abyssinian cats,” He started as a hand reached behind him to grab the cat off of his back by the skin of his neck. He brought the curled, hanging cat to his front so the animal could stare down at the predator carefully, prepared to dart off should Mr. Panther decide to attack. “I don't think you can even hope to compare him to the genetic defect that is Florence. Looking at him is as disgraceful as looking at some albino stricken creature.” If he had been four, he would have stuck his tongue out at the woman. ...Then again, even a four year old wouldn't do that to Judith... “I'm sure you would be happy to know I live only to displease others – I wouldn't do it to make someone else happy.” ..That was probably honest there. Oh, the fun~ He dropped Newt to the ground, who proved the always lands on their feet myth correct once again before ducking behind Mao's legs. As if that would protect him from some hungry panther.

Mao was about to say a hundred and one things to get Judith to slap him again in response to her. He still wished she would do it one more time~ No one ever slapped him and, as creepy as it would sound, he loved it when someone did! If only Mei had enough of a backbone to do it.. The woman was Chinese, pretty, and easy to deceive, but, alas, with her being as docile as a mouse, it was hard to see her in any other way outside of a dumb, foolish woman. Not like his Judith! But, instead of having the woman attack, or at least assault, him, he was pushed to the ground by a very large, frightening cat, sending Newt to scurry with a glance back at Mao in a self-satisfied way. Yep, the cat had happily abandoned him to surely be eaten by the panther! Mao would have glared at the dumb cat if it wasn't for the deafening yowl ringing throw his ears dizzying him into simply staring in wide-eyed fascination, too stunned to speak, even if he could hear Zhi somewhere snickering at his predicament.
~~~
The redhead, after watching amazing animal after animal stroll into the festival, was torn between going home and disappointing Zap or staying and.. disappointing Zap by losing with him. It would all be his fault too – he knew it! All he ever did was make people lose or fail or.. or just do bad things that he knew he caused because.. how else would they happen? He frowned and stared at the ground quietly, Zap asking him over and over again why they weren't walking around the festival, but Junior didn't have the heart to say it.. He would explain it later or let the rock figure it out himself – Then he saw her. Redhair, tall, and nice – that one woman! His friend from the last festival! His lips quirked up in a very small, awkward smile as he hurried over to where the woman stood, with her own.. rat.. thing. He didn't know what it was, but it looked cool too.. Probably was going to beat him three times over, but that wasn't important. Right now what was important was hovering behind her quietly and watching her, happy that he wasn't alone and was with his friend~ He would have said hi, but she seemed busy with a few other people, so.. He simply stood there, content to be at least near someone he kinda knew.

Crimson gave a welcoming grin back to Celeste and couldn't hold back the chuckle that came as she oo-ed Rally. He ran his fingers through his hair, allowing the two to become acquainted. "Ay, she be a girl." He gave a nod and stroked the top of her head gently. "and I didn't have one before, lassie." He chuckled again. "I thought the animal festival would be the best time as any to buy a dog, oy?" He rose his voice to make it appear as though he were wanting some reassurance on the purchase. His attention was drawn from Celeste to Reinbach who had approached during conversation. He quickly ran his fingers through his hair once more, "Ay, thank you, mate." He gave the man a rather large smile, completely oblivious to the fact that he may or may not be talking about his dog.

What one could consider a sadistic smile briefly crossed her face once she saw it was Mao, taking in his stunned expression to the slightest detail. She stored the mental picture for some other time. Oh yes, she could very well use this against Mao in some future event. She would have to thank Judith, if only for this small indulgence. Gemma wasn't really sure if she was hateful enough to actually want Mao to get killed, but she certainly didn't want him to come out unscathed! Crossing her arms, she stayed idly by the sidelines and watched. Letting Crimson indulge the other people he was speaking to, for now. Let her enjoy the show a little.
