[axwielding]

This is an odd event, are chocolates and cake often given to us each year at this time? I wonder if the castle feels lonely, so that's why it gives us presents.

action:
[After her post, you'll be able to find Presea collecting. Collecting what? Well, anything animal-like that she can find. If she knows that you have an animal, she may attempt to 'borrow' it from you. After she wanders around the castle and town gathering, she'll sit down in front of the castle with all of them. Cats, mice, stuffed animals, and anything else she found are all besides her. Some with leashes so that they won't run away or get lost.]

Lonely?

[That's an idea he'd never even considered.]

You really think that's what the castle's trying to do? Be our friend?

written;

[axwielding]

It is a possibility. Would you not be lonely?

[fantasies]

I... don't know. I guess I never thought about it. Can castles even get lonely?

[axwielding]

The castle is alive. It is not a normal castle.

[fantasies]

Well, yeah, I know that. But... lonely? Even if it did get lonely, wouldn't it want to be friends with other castles?

[axwielding]

Perhaps there are no others. It is surrounded by this town and then the Dead Zone. It must feel empty inside.

[fantasies]

[He's quiet for a long, long moment.]

... Wow. I always though it was just... I don't know. Evil magic.

[Action]

[therealrisette]

[Rise happens to be wandering the castle as well, with a very large red dog on a sturdy leather leash. A leash which also happened to be a very pretty shade of pink.

She's just helping out someone on a loss and minding her own business. But said person on a loss also happens to be an animal. And they're about to cross paths with Presea. Whatever shall happen now?]

[solowingpixy]

[That particular dog she's escorting is a rather cranky looking one too. Probably because of the fact that -the leash is pink-. He was really missing that chain that used to be on him. If you pull anything crazy, Rise, he'll have to get you back for it later.]

[axwielding]

[Risa and the dog happen to catch Presea's eye as they walk by. The furry red animal on the leash more then Risa. After a moment of watching them, she slips on over holding the mouse that she recently found.]

He's cute.

[therealrisette]

[Huh?]

Oh! You think so?

[Rise smiles. Maybe she's just a dog person. Or... animal person? What's with the mouse? ... Is that even a pet mouse?!]

Uh... well, I'm kinda just... looking out for him, y'know...

[Awkward... she's not sure what to say between the "dog" actually being someone on a loss, and her being a little wary of the small creature the other girl is holding.]

I'd uh, be careful around him. He's kinda grumpy.

[solowingpixy]

[He's only grumpy because the castle turned him into a dog and stuck him with a girl that has him on a -pink- leash. He raises a paw and bats at the collar around his neck; did she really have to go and replace the spiked one with one that's pink with rhinestones too?

He'll look at Rise and then at Presea, his right ear twitching. Was he in his big hellhound looking form just called 'cute'?]

[axwielding]

[Thankfully the mouse within her hand seems to be nibbling quite calmly at an item in her hand. Presea tilts her head slightly at Rise.]

Is he yours? [At the mention of him being slightly grumpy, she frowns. Now that she mentioned it, something did seem to be bothering him. However, a different question comes to her mind as well.]

Are his paw pads soft?

No, the castle just wants more chaos. Sometimes eating the stuff is worth it, sometimes it isn't.

written;

[axwielding]

It always wants chaos? Is that all it wants?

written;

[ofhope]

Who knows what it really wants... But that's certainly what it produces.

Re: written;

[axwielding]

Some seem to be living here happily though.

written;

[ofhope]

Those who have given up, or settled. But when you're here long enough, I suppose, finding some acceptance is necessary without going insane. [ says the crazy guy. ]

written;

[axwielding]

I see. Then those who have been here for years have had no choice then acceptance.

action;

[whathedoves]

[Animal-like, did you say?

Well, Yuuya is always an animal, whether or not he's wearing a sharp jacket and tie to help with the brisk weather (as he currently is).

Although he's unaffected by any holiday sweets in particular, Yuuya is still getting into the spirit of the holiday, as it were, spreading his particular brand of Sexy and Luxurious cheer by being simultaneously friendly and inappropriate.

He really has no idea the grave danger he may be placing himself in when he approaches Presea the collector and her hapless quarry.]

You've certainly assembled quite the group of friends, mon amie.

Don't look now, but some of them appear to be stuffed.

[axwielding]

[The sight of Yuuya catches Presea's attention almost immediately caught her attention. The sight of the clothes on it causes her to brighten her usual demeanor slightly.]

Thank you, but these were all I could find. [She does however pull a bag of seeds that she'd been using to gather animals earlier out of her pocket.] Are you hungry?

[whathedoves]

You should know something about young men: We are always hungry. It help feeds our growth spurts and boundless energy!

Are you offering to treat, miss?

[axwielding]

[She blinks before smiling slightly.]

Yes, I am. Have as much as you want. [Holding open the bag now.]

[whathedoves]

Er. [Well, he'd hate to just stuff his face in there ... Or even reach a wing in uninvited.]

I know it's a lot to ask, but do you happen to a bowl? Maybe a cup? I can get down and dirty with the best of them, you know, but I should probably exhibit some table manners while we're in public.

[axwielding]

[There's a small tilt, oh that made sense. He was a speaking bird after all, he had to have more manners then the rest.]

Yes, I'll poor some out. [She'll take a partly carved bowl out of her pocket. It isn't finished, but it's enough of a bowl to be used.]

Is this okay?
