Oblivious, that was the word she wanted to use for him, he was completely oblivious. Reika chuckled as Dante suddenly came up in front of her demanding an explanation. She stood silent for a moment, looking at him, as though she truely was thinking about what to say.
"You know what, I think I'll leave you to your own devices. You think about it for a while, maybe it will come to you someday," Reika stepped around him to head for the rides, though she wasn't fond of actually going on the rides alone, she needed to get some distance from him. She walked as though she was intent on the Ferris Wheel, in truth she didn't know what ride to go on. Then she saw Nero only a little ways ahead of her, she quickly glanced back. Dante had been lost in the crowd behind her as she walked.
"Hey, it's been a while," Reika called out to the young man as she caught up to him, "Are you here with someone, you don't seem the type to come to a carnival alone." She smiled at Nero, only wanting his company, and conversation.

Faces, so many faces frozen forever in wax, carved and melted into expressions that held no thought. "A tisket, a tasket..." She skipped through the eerie dark halls with flickering lights as the night grew colder, " a green and yellow basket..." Her voice echoed through the carnival, sweet yet entirely haunting.
"I wrote a letter to my friend and on the way I lost it," she passed several broken wax figures who seemed to watch her passing in the twilight. Their limbs stuck out in odd directions like dismembered mannequins. "I lost it, I lost it, and on the way I lost it..." her childlike voice trilled like bells through the air like a dreamed facade that would only give way to a nitemare at any moment.
"I wrote a letter to my friend and on the way I lost it." The last note hung in the air as she stopped and stood before a group of wax figures that were dressed as people from the seventeen hundreds. Her attire matched theirs so she joined the frozen tea party. Her precious doll safely in her arms. She began talking out her game with them. The hostess was missing an arm and half her wax face was melted. She poured her imaginary tea and took a sip, humming happily her macabre tune.
(Feel free to ignore this post, this is just what she's doing in the run down part of the carnival)

Carl was in trouble. He had made the unfortunate choice of stealing a police bait car. As soon as the engine shut itself off, he jumped out and started to leg it. But the cops were already after him, he needed to lose them fast. So when he saw the carnival he was pretty damn happy. He could lose them pretty damn fast there and even if he didn’t, they wouldn’t dare shoot at him there, what with all the innocent mothers and kids, it was perfect. He ran to the fence on one side and hopped it. He made a mental note to pay the full admission price when his heat had died down a bit, but now the line at the entrance would just slow him down and get him caught.
He was wearing a green hoody and a black ball cap. He figured that since he was here, he might as well have some fun. He saw the Farris Wheel and a pang of home sickness hit him, it looked just like the on one the board walk at Santa Maria Beach back in Los Santos. He used to love to ride that thing as a kid. He walked over to the line and waited at the back.

Hearing a familar voice call out behind him, Nero turned around to see Reika coming up to him from behind. He was caught a little off-guard, since he hadn't expected to see Reika come her dressed in such normal clothes. She had let her hair down, both literally and figuratively, and was even wearing perfume. It really worked for her.
"Hey there Reika, glad to see a friendly face."
He smirks a little a Reika's remark, something that would normally have earned her a cutting remark from his unparalleled wit. Tonight, however, he was just glad to have some company.
"Heh, normally I'd only go to a place like this with my girlfriend, but Kyrie's busy with the politics surrounding the Order right now. Back home we only have religious celebrations, so this is my first time at a carnival just for the fun of it."
Nero's eyes light up as he gets an idea.
"Hey, now that I think about it..."
Nero holds his arm out for Reika, a big smile on his face.
"How would you like to be my date tonight? You'd make much better company than any of these random bimbos."

He felt her come up behind him, though he would have to call her Kitsuki while they were here, her presense was unmistakable to him. He turned to look at her as she started her rambling. Without a word he took her wrist to interupt her and began pulling her toward the ride she had initially suggested.
The line had really not been very long, but it was too long for Vergil. With the girl always at his side, his mind wandered for once. Not soon enough they were boarding the ride, in a car to themselves. There was constant lurching as the other cars were loaded and unloaded. Wary that she may fear or fall by the movement he pulled her close to his side.
Finally the motion was smooth and Vergil slid over to make a little distance. However as they neared the peak of the ride he unconciously moved toward the side to see the view past the mechanics of the ride. His awareness came rushing back when his hip colided with hers. He glanced down at the girl. She was always at his side, whether as his sword or as the girl she was now. The one thing he wouldn't have to share, like the title of being his father's son, thankfully he knew nothing of her curiousity of Nero.
His thoughts migrated to his brother, had he been in the position he would have taken physical advantage of the girl's affections from the first meeting. He struck his forehead with his palm to try to clear his mind of the image, but he only succeeded in putting his own image in the place of Dante's. No, she was his sword, his weapon and possesion. He shut his eyes tightly replacing the girl with the sword in his mind.
He fought with his mind for the duration of the ride, avoiding any eye contact with the girl. He pulled her off the ride in a hurry and stepped into the shadows where he turned finally to her, still blushing, though it would be unseen in the darkness.
"Torture," he whispered before regaining his composure and clearing his throat, "Where else did you want to go?" his voice and face again the dark calm he tried to keep it as.

Smiling at the other Hunter she playfully punched at his arm,
"You have a girlfriend? I'm rather surprised!" She paused to look at him, chin in hand, considering his offer. "
I would love to spend the evening with you," Reika chuckled lightly before taking his arm and motioning him to lead the way, "and thank you, glad to know someone enjoys my company." She took the joke in stride as she walked with him. She only glanced back once, wondering if Dante would still be pouting. If he were watching she didn't know, there were too many people.

Nero rubbed his arm with mock-hurt when Reika playfully decided to hit him in the arm. Still, Nero just couldn’t keep the good cheer from his voice and expression… it was always better to be with friends. He laughed easily at her jest.
“No kidding, I’m still surprised myself sometimes. She’s WAY too good for me, you know.”
She took his arm, and they walked together off into the carnival, looking for fun… or trouble. Whichever came their way. He noticed her looking back into the crowd, and he was curious, wondering what might be so interesting back there.
“You waiting on someone?”
Before she could answer, though, Nero realized that they had stopped right in front of the line for the roller coaster. He quickly added a swift, second question.
“When you answer, do you want to ride the roller coaster too? Or you have another idea for fun here?”

Syrissin bid the girl good night and silently wandered the fair. It had been a close call atthe shooting gallery. He was unarmed and the crowd was probably telling everyone how a demon stopped a dishonest booth operator. Syrissin sighed. He was supposed to be a villian wasn't he? A descendent of a Lilith and Cerberus. A terror to the human world but here he was, walking calmly and stopping a petty criminal. Irony seemed to be his only companion. He was opening a hell gate,contemplating going to his aunt Shiva the ice wolf for power.... And he scolded a hunter for going after his family when he himself will do the same thing.
Syrissin shook his long raven locks out of his eyes. Problems seemed to arise whereever he went. Syrissin went to the feeding area and spotted a girl being harassed by some guys. Without thinking, whether or not Dante or anyone else that could possibly want him dead, he stepped forward and stood menacing behind one of the men.
'I believe she asked you to stop,' Syrissin put all the ice he could into the tone and gave a glare that would've made Vergil-sama proud, his eyes almost erupting with red light. Syrissin walked away as the idiots ran off, not even allowing the girl to give him a thank you before he sat down in a chair and stared at the sky.

Kitty wandered in the direction of the fair, lured by the sounds of happiness and the smells of the food. As she set eyes on the fair for the first time, her eyes got a starlit look to them. There were celebrations similar to this one where she was from, but none this... extravagant. Usually, people kept celebrations and fun to themselves.
She passed through the front gate, not having brought anything other than her two kukris, which she kept well concealed. She was taking a day off of formal hunting for once... or rather, taking a break from carrying her usual payload of two swords, two smaller blades, and two rather large revolvers with her everywhere.
She took a map from the ticketmaster, and immediately began trying to figure out what to do first. Where should she go? What should she do? Was there some sort of ritual way to go about what to do first? She'd never actually been to a fair before, so she watched some of the people behind her to see what they did.
Satisfactorily concluding after about ten minutes of watching that there was no such ritual, she continued trying to decipher on her map where she should go.
...After another five minutes of looking at the map, she decided she would close her eyes and blindly pick somewhere, since she couldn't make up her mind. If her finger landed on a ride, she would go and ride whatever one was closest to where she picked. If it landed at a food kiosk, she would try whatever they had to offer. If it was a game, she would try that. She closed her eyes, traced her hand in invisible circles above the map three times, and then tapped a spot on it.
She'd chosen a ride; the Troika. Though she had no idea what the name meant, she traveled in that direction, oblivious to the odd stares she was getting from people. The whispers, however, caught her attention as she passed by, and although she tried to ignore them, she couldn't help but glance in the direction that they were coming from.
"Did you see that?"
"See what?"
"That girl over there!"
"...Yeah, what about her?"
"She's got stripes! Isn't that the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen?"
"...Not really."
"What? What do you mean?"
"...You haven't lived here for very long, have you?"
"Crap, she's looking this way! Do you think she heard me?"
"I don't know."
Kitty let out a small sigh, slightly disappointed. No matter where she went, her stupid stripes always got her unwanted attention. She looked down at her arm, where they glittered their golden hue, individually nearly invisible, but altogether they made an unmistakable pattern.
As she reached her destination, however, her mood lightened considerably. She stepped in line for the Troika, and as soon as she saw the three rings of seven cars spin, raise and lower in their usual spiral patterns, she couldn't wait for her turn to ride. The demeanor of an eager young child returned to her instantly, and when it was her turn to board, she raced aboard the Troika, claiming red car #3 as her own.
