Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tahki had been dragged out of her dorm this morning by an over excited pink haired boil whom she still referred to as 'Amritas friend'. He'd spotted some none sense about super fun time and awesome time and some other dribble not minding that Tahki wasn't overly thrilled to be dragged out in to a social situation.

But of course Charlie had run off to do his own thing leaving the white gryphoness alone in an ever steadily growing crowd of new faces. The one thing she hated the most, large groups of people she didn't know. So Tahki, holding her headphones tightly over her ears, tried her best to find her way out of this epidemic of awkward. Her eyes were shut tight and her music was blasting but still it felt as if all eyes were on her as she tried to find a quiet corner to hide in.

That was when she bumped into a ridiculously wobbly and shaky built thing. It was a booth right? Tahki looked it over for a moment. Scariocart? Her eyes wandered down to find a red headed ghoul with a name tag on her forehead whom she'd seen once or twice and Ren.

"O-oh...." She looked at the stand and then at the duo, "Can I hide here for a while?" Her foot tapped the ground shyly and her head hung a little low in a submissive plea for sanctuary.

Ren cocked an ear towards LW, though he was still examining the booth somewhat suspiciously, indicating that he was, in fact, listening to her even with his back half turned in her direction. "I'm not sure," he said, tapping one finger of his bandaged right hand thoughtfully against his cheek.

His eyes moved to the whiteboard. "At least you made that look less like the train wreck it was before," he added, smirking a bit as he swiveled towards the shewolf again, plastering a mock innocent expression on his face. "Excuse me, LW, would I do that to you?" he asked her, looking melodramatically offended at the insinuation. On his shoulder once more, Rhys gave his owner what could only be deemed as a withering stare before his nose twitched, ears flattening back against his head as footsteps approached their booth.

"TAHKI!" Ren shouted, flinging his arms around the ghoul and hugging her tightly. He was always excited to see the gryphonness; she was just like him, after all. Rhys tumbled off of him with an indignant noise, climbing up to lean against LW's leg. "So glad to see you, darling!"

Stepping back, he gently pushed the ghoul towards LW, beaming. "Do you guys know each other?" he asked, gesturing. "If you don't - Tahki, this is my best friend, LW. LW, this is Tahki."

The Library was starting to get a little too crowded for Edel's liking, or at least she thought it was rude to interrupt the hearty conversations going on already. Sighing wistfully, she made her way out of the maze of shelves and dolefully wandered over to the booths, stopping at the nearest one to read the sign.

Scario Kart.
Edel had no idea what that was -- like how she didn't know the foggiest about groanspring. Racing and video games do sound fun though. Glancing down at the table beneath the huge whiteboard, she spotted stacks of blank stickers and a pile of ....minipets?

Looks like I'm supposed to fill up one of these stickers ... but just to be sure -

Edel leaned towards the table sideways, facing the other three who seemed to be introducing themselves. Perhaps one of them would be able to tell her what to do.

Moure, still trailing a bit at the edge of the introduction area, heard someone coming toward them and turned to see a pretty, icy-looking demoness. She seemed a bit confused as to waht she was supposed to do with the name tags. Eyebrow raising slightly, Moure automatically took a step back toward table. Slowly coming to a stand next to the table, he said, "Do you need some help?"

She seemed a bit confused, and it was in Moure's instinct to help her. "I'm Moure, by the way..." He said, then realized it was probably a tad redundant since he did have a name tag on.

Moure also noticed that another creature, one with what seemed like a bunch of glow-sticks attached to him and a pair of horns, had shown up. This one asked the most...flabbergasting question. What was Scario Kart? Moure managed to stop himself from looking too baffled, and started to offer a question. "Scario Kart? It's a video game in which you race other players..." He didn't want to steal the thunder from the actual club members, but he thought to at least offer some explanation.

“Oh! Uhh-“

Edel hadn’t noticed him before, but a lean patchwork boil who was ahead of her had turned around and offered her some help.

I’m Moure, by the way…

“My name is Edelweiss, Edel for short”

She caught sight of the orange sticker with “Moure” written on it plastered on the boil’s chest. “I see now…” she said, grabbing a marker and writing her name on a fresh sticker carefully.



“..Like this?” she asked cheerily, peeling off the back of the sticker and pasting it in front. She was glad to have met someone kind and friendly.

More people had come to visit the booth – another boil with a pair of horns and luminescent clothing and a shadowy ghoul dressed in dark garb.

Edel overheard Moure’s explanation of what Scario Kart was. Ah, a video game. Edel wondered how much fun she had been missing out on all this while – and how much fun she would have once she entered school.

Oh, so they had to announce their names too after finishing the name tags? Whinn didn't know how things like this worked, so best to follow the crowd, yes?

"U-Um . . . Winona," she mumbled after Moure and this Edelweiss, putting her hand down. Incidentally, she noticed her name was spelled wrong and, with a small squeak, rectified it with a strangely quick motion with the marker.



But then - Jack! Jack Jack Jack, but then people would read her name with an X! So she had to scratch it all out with another small whine, revealing her momentary brain fart to all.



Great start, Whinn. Great start.

Best to deviate away from the glaring stupidity, as Whinn was sure it was. She even tried a little bit louder in speaking. "So . . . u-um. How do you p-play?" Her speech seemed off, as if she had not learned how fully to form her lips around the words, and her eyes were diverted to "Ren" and "LW"'s collective feet.
