Let's Go Flower-viewing! {PLEASE READ FIRST POST!}

"Thank you," Moni said as she reached out and shook Elliona's hand. "I like your name too."
Moni pulls a sugar cube from her pocket and feeds it to her pony. Her little bird seems unaware of what's going on as he is settled down and napping on her head.
"I'm new to this area and not sure about what's going on here. Are you from around here?"

[Midnight Dream]

"Thanks" Elliona said grinning, she then watched as Moni began to feed an animal. Elliona nodded her head. "Yup" Elliona said smiling. "I usually say to people is just sit back, relax, and enjoy the commodities of the festival" Elliona said as she laughed slightly. "Do you really like animals?" Elliona asked politely now noticing the bird on Moni's head.

[Berlin]

Berlin's frown deepened when Ithea insisted on going to talk with another. Well, maybe she was right. He did act subservient a lot. But... isn't that what most people wanted? He shook his head, coming back to reality and followed Ithea, wondering if maybe he should be the one to find someone and not her.

[Cougati]

"Oh Berlin. There you are. You wandered off for a bit. This is Tran. Tran, this is Berlin. There now. We've all been introduced, so we can have a nice chat now."

[monbohn]

"I think I can do that" Moni said, laughing. "I rarely stay in any one place for very long so it's nice sometimes to just sit back, relax, and stay a while to enjoy things."
Moni looked at her surroundings for a moment, wondering if she would find what she was looking for in this place. It seemed like a nice area and the people appeared to be friendly. She turned her attention back to Elliona, as she petted her pony lovingly.
"Oh, I love animals! When I find the place I decide to make my home I plan to have several animals. I can't imagine my life without animals in it."
"So, how long have you lived in the area? Is this festival an annual occurance or is there something special that's being celebrated?"

[Midnight Dream]

"Oh I see" Elliona said, replying to Moni's statement about not staying in one place. "Oh thats cool!" Elliona said smiling. "I love animals, but i'm to lazy to actually take care of one" Elliona mumbled as she gave a nervous laugh. "Well, except for this one pet" Elliona said, as she pulled out a bunny from practically no where. "Meet Mimi, my little bunny" Elliona said laughing.

"I actually haven't lived here that long" Elliona slurred.
"I've been here and there, but i've been here for a week or so since the festival started, so I don't really know all the details" Elliona said laughing slightly.

[Berlin]

Berlin swallowed. Wasn't he supposed to introduce himself? Oh well. That was all in the past now. He reached out a hand for a handshake. "Hello, Tran," he said, making sure not the stare down, but instead make eye contact.

AJ walks through the Lotus trees alone, her companion decided to stay behind and relax. She is trying to get to the festival. Since its her first time here and in the area, she really has no idea where she going. AJ thinks that she might be going in the wrong direction and has left the Lotus trees. Everything is darker and the trees closer together.

She sees someone wandering in the trees but decides not to approach them. They don't seem quite right, human yes but almost like they are not alive. AJ decides to turn around and see if she can retrace her steps but the trees and hopeful find the festival.

[Cougati]

"See?" Ithea grinned. "That wasn't so hard was it?"

[Berlin]

Berlin frowned again, his cheeks tinting red with a blush. "I-it really helps if you don't make comments like that, Ithea," he said just loud enough to not be a whisper. It had been ages since he had learned to not talk back. But she seemed to want that today.

[monbohn]

"Oh, what a cute little bunny!" Moni exclaimed about Elliona's furry little friend that she had seemed to pull out of nowhere.
"I have a tendency to find and keep stray animals that have been injured. I used to tell myself I would only have a couple of animals, but have long ago resigned myself to the fact that I cannot resist an animal that needs help or a home. In fact, this little guy here" she said as she hugged her pony, "has only been with me for a little while. I found him laying beside his mother who had passed on ~ he was hungry and scared and I took him under my wing and he follows me wherever I go. I have yet to choose a name for him as I believe a name will choose him when it's the right one"
I have passed through this area a few times during my travels, as I visit my family a few times a year and they live a little ways north of this area, but have never passed through during a festival like this."

[Cougati]

"You're just too shy." She stuck her tounge out at him. "I'm only trying to help."

[Midnight Dream]

"Thank you" Elliona said, petting the bunnys head.
"Awww" Elliona started, admiring the fact that Moni would help animals in need. "Poor Pony" Elliona mumbled.

"I see" Elliona started. "Well, its great you came at a time like this, who knows when they'll have another festival". Elliona said grinning.

AJ finally wanders back to the Lotus trees and looks around. She notices people walking in a certain direction, the opposite of where she came. Decided go in that direction and see where it leads, hoping that that is where the festival lays. Where she hopes to find some food and drink.

On her way she passes groups of people talking, chatting, and playing. She feels truly alone for the first time. She has always been alone and of her own doing. Yea she got family but she felt like she did not belong so she set out on her own creating a cloak of mystery to her. Now she thinks maybe a friend or two was not a bad idea but can she do, she a shy quiet person. Not someone who goes up to people and joins a conversation.

[Cougati]

Ithea, still smiling, looks around, for someone else to pull into the conversation.

Seeing a lonely looking girl walking towards them, she walks away from Berlin and steps out in fron of her.

"Hi! I'm Ithea, what's your name? You look lonely, so I figures I'd come say hi!"
