"Why do you keep calling me that?" He turned to her.

((It's 03:00 here, I should probably go to bed))

Matt

I laughed. Oh, we're definitely going to have to visit every attraction now. I had taken her hand and led her over to the vendor. I bought one, berry flavored. It was an exceptional size considering what I paid for. I held it out for her to try a bite. "Back where I come from we had festivals like this all the time! Every event you'd imagine! Massive banquets. It was good stuff." I waited for her to try the candy.

Anthony

"Oh stop it you..." I blushed a little. "You feeling hungry? I could treat you to some dinner after this."

Celes nodded. Her stomach started growling as she started to cover her stomach with her hands.”Shush you’re not part of this.” She said to her stomach.

Corrine picked a piece of the cotton candy off and tried it, “I was pretty isolated as a child so we didn’t go to these types of things, that’s why I was so excited when I heard there was a festival happening.” She picked off another piece of cotton candy, “This is good.”

Matt

"Poor thing. I grew up as a freebird.While it was great, I must admit, I wish I had someone to tell me what to do and where to go instead of figuring it all out myself." This berry cotton candy was truly delicious. I had a couple more bites. "Back where I came from, we didn't have all these cool games, we had a lot more simple things." I had another bite. "So why were you kept isolated? Powers?"

Anthony

"Tell your stomach to take it easy, we still have a few minutes left until this thing is fixed." I laughed.

“I don’t actually know, I never asked. I had a good handle on my powers around the age of 9 or 10.” She went silent, thinking about her parents.

Matt

"I-uh..." I noticed she had gone silent. I had thought through all the possibilities of why she had gone quiet. Was it something I had said? Surely not. I felt as though the best course of action was to take a seat and give her a moment to sort it out. I took her hand and gently pulled her over to a nearby bench. "You ok? Do you want to talk?" I had already taken a seat.

Corrine suddenly looked up at Matt, she had forgetton where she was after she had become lost in her thoughts. “Oh, no I’m fine, I just started thinking about why my parents kept our family locked away.” She looked out at the festival and then turned to Matt again. “There’s supposed to be a dance soon.”

Matt

"...that's horrible." I said. I couldn't imagine how hard it must've been to grow up, unlike any other kid. I had it hard, sure, but it's the psychological stuff of not having outside interactions that made me worried. She had looked dazed and confused, and it must've been hard for her. I'm sure we'll both learn to cope with our troubled pasts someday in the future, but today was a day of fun and celebration. I gave her a hug and whispered: "I'm here for you if you need me."

"This dance will be fun. You'll get to see how crazy my dance moves are. I was the life of the party!" I said in a cheery tone, trying to get her mind off of things.

Corrine laughed, rolling her eyes at Matt, “I’m sure you were.” She leaned in and returned his hug, sighing in content. She rested her head against his chest, and whispered back a silent “Thank you.”

‘Walking over to a place nearby where the dance is and sit at a table seeing two people pretty close by says’ “hey you two im wondering if I could talk to the both of you” ‘says this to Corrine and Matt’

Matt

I had nodded ever so subtly at her thanks. It confirmed she was going through something. If she wants to talk, she will. I won't force anything. "No really, I was! I may not have been good at dancing, but I still rocked the house." I had a huge grin on my face.

Corrine laughed, and then heard somebody speaking to them. She turned and looked at the man who had approached them, smiling slightly. “How can we help?” She asked.

Oh I wasn’t expecting you guys to notice me since the two of you were busy talking to each other but that’s off of what I was going to say.....ok well I’m Asteroth how are you madam?

Corrine smiled and stuck out her hand for Asteroth to shake, “I’m Corrine Vierra, and I’m doing fine. Do you go to the academy?” She asked, as she looked him up and down. He looked young enough to be a student.

Matt

I looked at the man, Asteroth was such a peculiar name to have. I had a friendly smile on my face, but on the inside, something was off.

Im going to be there as a new student. “Shakes Corrine’s hand lightly and smiles a devilish grin revealing sharp teeth”
