Who: Killua Zoldyck and ANYONE! When: throughout August Where: Aefenglom city and the Wilde around it What: full moon, quests, shenanigans, etc. Warnings: undead-creature-related gore; awkward full moon teenage ust......
Right? That's what I thought of too! It sounds so stupid!
[ Considering the content of the festival, the answer itself when it arrives from the too-enthusiastic stranger isn't surprising-- but the way he says it and the assumption are.
Killua's eyes go wide, cheeks heating up bright pink. ]
Wh-what?! We're not together, you creep!
[ Killua shouts after him too, at the same time as Rikku thankfully also protests. ]
[ Don't worry, Rikku-- he's not any more keen on the idea. For gay reasons. No offense.
Killua takes one of the drinks from her, looking at it dubiously as well. He lifts it to his face for a sniff. ]
Eh, I doubt it could hurt me regardless. [ So for him, specifically, the question of whether or not it's 'safe' holds little meaning. And yet, for some reason... ] But aren't we both underage?
I guess it doesn't smell like alcohol... Smells sweet.
[ Not that his nose is as good as Gon's or anything. ]

[ Technically not untrue. It's just come from intensive training and building up resistances to various poisons and drugs since he was a toddler. But no need to put a downer on the festivities by bringing up his family life. ]
Uuh... [ Killua stares at her, unconvinced. ]
I mean, if you wanna drink it, I won't stop you... But maybe you shouldn't?
[She stares into the beverage for a few minutes longer, then promptly dumps it out. Killua's right--accepting drinks from strange men who creepily refer to friends as boyfriends is a bad idea.]
I wanna see if they're giving out any free samples or anything. Especially desserts.
[ That's more his speed. Killua makes a face, dumping his drink too while he decides on their next mission to go find something sweet to snack on.
Thankfully, there are some more minor-friendly drinks around too.
They explore the festival together a bit, avoiding most of the partying (at least Killua avoids it as much as he can) and finding their own fun among less inebriated citizens for a bit. ]

...gross!
[ He means the random guy. Not Rikku. Probably. ]

[She looks down into the drink the stranger pushed into her hand dubiously.]
What do you think he gave us? Do you think it's even safe for us to drink?
[Or legal, for that matter.]

Depending on how one wants to interpret her FFX-2 behavior, she's kind of gay herself.]It can't hurt you? You must have a really strong stomach.
[Prooooobably not the correct takeaway, but it's the thought that registers with her.]
Although I don't think "underage" matters much here. Or at least during the party.
[She stares harder into her cup, as if doing so could reveal the drink's secrets.]
How brave are you feeling?

How about we find a less weird party to join?
