The entire span of the beach is covered in make-shift stands, anvils, forges, and most importantly competitors and spectators. A loud cheer can be heard as a heavy clan emu raises their hands, a dazzling axe held high in the air. Judges pour in and take notes, marking down some things. "A 7!" Is called out and the crowd calls out mixed cheers and jeers. Over by the start of the beach a man with a clip board is registering crafters for competition, and across the entire spanse lavish foods and drinks can be seen.
Ariella is standing at one of the food stands, smiling to the seller and moving to sit on a hand bench, some meat on a stick, chewing on it and waiting for her prearranged meeting with Bite. She crosses her legs, staring into the crowd, doing some lazy people watching on her day off.
Selena paces along the sand, picking up a drink from a table before setting herself down. The wolf takes some small tools out of her bag and etches small lines into a ring, watching the procession of smiths with interest, though primarily ensuring she doesn't make mistakees on her little piece. The wolf waves across to Ariella as she notices the lioness, though doesn't make a move to pack her tools and relocate herself at this point.
A long shadow is casted from the badger as she looms over the mandrill, "So would you happen to have an opening for a crafter such as myself." She look down at the mandrill with a very predatory grin, "I might not be of these fine folk caliber but I would love to try my hand at a little friendly competition. Oh and if I am allow could you put my name down as Miss Badger? I wouldn't want any unfair Bias." She winked and took off her House Seal and place it into an inside pocket in her apron. "So would you let a random badger join in this fun?" She grinned even more scary than before as she moved inches away from the Mandrill.
Mirana walks down to the beach from the inn, a slight flush to her face. She'd decided not to have any shoes, wanting the feel of the sand on her paws. The gental warmth makes her sigh softly. She walks over to grab a drink herself, leaving some crown behind to pay for it. She looks about for anyone she might know, spotting Selena and Ariella fairly easily. Seeing Selena's tools she deicides to watch from where Ariella is seated for now, "Mind if I take this seat?" She asks, when she gets next to the lioness. Looking over toward the registration mandrill, she notices a badger who looks very much like Kilsa and snickers. "I know who will win, but maybe I'll see if she needs any help in a bit."
Mirana spends 10 Crown for RP reasons.
The mandrill shakes his head. "A miss badger is already.. Oh i'm sorry i've been expecting you, please, come with me." he says as he leads Kilsa over to a male heavy badger bulding with muscles. He stops hammering for a second and raises an eyebrow. "Sir this is not my beloved, I assure you." he says before the mandrill gives him an appologetic look and marks Kilsa down as 'Miss Badger 2' and sets her directly next to where 'Miss Badger' is supposed to be set up. As this all takes place Bite slithers onto the beach and giggles, wearing nothing but her two piece swimsuit. She actively seeks out Ariella as she passes stand after stand of displayed weaponry, and smiles when she finds her, giving her a hug and waving to Mirana and Selena when she reaches the spot. "Sorry i'm late sssweetie I needed to change." she hisses, picking up something from a stand and shoving it in her mouth. In the distance loud clanks can be heard as the next to be judged works furiously, slowly crafting a hammer.
Ariella nods her head towards Mirana, gesturing to the spot next to her. "Please, we need to chat," she says, giving Selena a wave and breaking into a broad grin at her beloved's appearance. She reaches out, wrapping her arms around the snake's waist and pulling her onto her lap, nuzzling at her cheek full of affection. "Not at all, it looks good on you," the lioness compliments, planting a kiss on the taipan's cheek, turning an eye to Mirana, checking for reaction.
Selena chuckles quietly as the taipan arrives, looking up from her work for long enough to wave back. The wolf checks over the ring quickly, putting it and her tools back before walking over to the group proper. "Hello Bite, Mirana, Ariella." She smiles. "...Gonna need to get back to a workshop to finish my little project." She comments with a shrug. "So, what brings all you here?"
Kilsa look at the male Badger and smiles, "Its nice to a Badger behind a forge. I hope to see wonderous works from you and your beloved." She called out as she cracks her knuckles and begins to work. "Everyone is probably going to be forging standard swords or something of that effect. I shall forge something that embodies..." She places a finger on her temple and smiles, "Yes! The heavy clan itself.... My tribute to the clan that accepted me." She grinned and begins her as she starts to heat up the metals around. "Mr. Mandrill am I allow to etch math into my weaponry?" She asked while waiting on the heat.
Mirana waves to Bite as she walks in and takes the seat to Ariella's left. Look at the nuzzles and kiss, she turns away and sighs, suddenly wishing the drinks were like those back at the bar. Her free hand tugs slightly at her dress, till she uses it to wave to Selena, "Hello again, and what project would that be?" She asks, "Oh, just heard about a small event down here, and decided to come watch, though, I might ask if someone needs help..." she looks over to Ariella and Bite again, blinking, "Yes, I think I will..." and she gets up to walk over to Kilsa and the Mandrill, "Excuse me sir, are.... apprentices permitted to assist as well?" She asks looking over to Kilsa.
The mandrill looks up to Kilsa from his chart and nods. "Any skills you have should be implemented." he says before turning to address Mirana. "You may not assist any of the competitors, however you may work on your own entry, what can I put you down for?" he asks as he glances over her dress, almost as though judging her abilities. As Bite is drawn into the lioness's lap she giggles and smilies, leaning back to return the kiss and saying "Well first I was supposed to meet Ariella on the beach, but we found there was a competition going on, so i'm going to find someone to cheer for." she hisses and smiles, looking to the food. The badger laughs and smirks. "I'm sure you'll see how great our works are."
Ariella nuzzles against Bite's chest, her eyes on Mira, looking a little upset. "Mira. Really. Please don't act like this every time me and Bite kiss, I don't think it's healthy," she complains, planting kisses along her girlfriend's neck in spite of her words.
Selena shrugs when Mirana asks. "Nothing too important. I'll have time to finish it later - I just don't want to burn myself on molten glass." She comments. "I want to smooth off the surface of a ring I've made." the wolf explains, procuring the item from her bag - a simple white ring with a knotwork pattern etched into it. Though the pattern itself is colored black. "It's a bit of a hobby, I suppose." the wolf chuckles. "Something to occuy myself with when I'm not busy." She giggles as the lioness kisses Bite again.
