This booth is something more like a bright green and white painted gate than a booth, and features behind the fence posts a little pond about the size and depth of a large kiddy pool. Floating in the little pond are a bunch of seemingly identical wooden ducks. A floppy-eared, hound-like coydog with short brown fur and black brindling mans this booth, and his voice has more than a little resemblance to a hound baying as he drums up customers for his game. "Hellooooo helloooo come play with me! Step up to the pond and hunt a duck to win the prize written on the bottom! Everyone's a winner!"
Post your character here catching one of the wooden ducks to see what prize they win! Event staff will roll once to determine the prize you get and a second time if the prize has multiple options, so don't be surprised if you see more than one roll with your name on it! We will then edit the prize into your post with no need to reply again. Every character can post to the games only ONCE so pick your game wisely!

Attending the festival is just what he needed. Enjoying the sounds and bright colors of the festivities surrounding him, Kuroo beamed with happiness. Letting his tongue loll out the side of his mouth as he pulled his ever annoyed brother along with him, something caught his eye. Turning to see the green and white gate with a baying coydog off to the side attesting to a challenge of catching a wooden duck, he couldn't help himself. Bounding over without a second thought, the painted boy eagerly asked for a chance to try. After waiting patiently for his turn, Kuroo made his way through the gate to peer into the kiddie pool before him. Bobbing on the shallow surface, he took a moment to decide which one would be the perfect duck. There, off to the side, one duck in particular (though they all appeared the same) drifted away from the others. What a perfect chance! Lurching his head forward with mouth open, he dunked his head into the chilly water with mouth closing in on his prize. Pulling back out with a gasp of air and water drizzling down the sides of his face, he smiled around his catch. Quickly taking it back over to the baying coydog, he waited to see what his prize would be. |

Enjoying the festivities as everyone else seemed to be doing, Celeste made her way toward the green and white gate. There were several fun-appearing games to be played, but this one attracted her attention the most. Hunting was one of her favorite hobbies and even if the ducks were made of wood, she thought she'd still have a good time. Adjusting the deerskin cloak around her shoulders so that it wouldn't slip off, she smiled toward the baying coydog as she waited for her turn. Once it was hers, the petite girl with her fur still growing back made her way over to the small pool. Staring down at the small wooden ducks to pick out the best one, she waited a few seconds before plunging in. Front paws dove in as her teeth reached out to grab the closest one. Quickly hopping out as the chilly water prickled her skin, Celeste lifted up her prize and took it over to the coydog to see what she had won. |

Boneset had never seen anything like this before. So many strange but delicious scents were flooding through the air around them accompanied by vivid colors, strange sounds, and even other wolves. To a pup that had grown pretty comfortable into a life of semi-solitude the festival was actually quite overwhelming, if not just downright terrifying, but something about it was also.. exciting? With careful, calculated steps the pup made her way through the grounds. Duckweed had gone off to look at something that caught her eye just moments ago with the promise of meeting back up with her shortly, so she'd decided to find something to fill her time with while she waited. Being just a pup, the games were of course the first thing to catch Boneset's attention. She wandered over to the one with little ducks. Her sister's nickname was Ducky, so naturally this would be the only right choice. She listened to the instructions carefully and watched a couple of other wolves take a shot at it before mustering up the courage to try herself. Bones took a moment to contemplate the ducks before finally deciding. "You." she whispered to the wooden toy before snatching it up in her maw. |

Áskell was starting to feel better. He plunged his mind into studying his mother's clan and their culture. Trying to learn the language was proving particularly taxing but he needed the distraction, the little goals each day to apply himself to. Whenever he felt grief starting to claw up his throat he could look to his list for his next goal and focus on that and sometimes it worked… some times it didn't, but after the grief had lifted he had direction.
Today he'd followed other members of his new pack to a festival. He really didn't know what to think of it and in some ways it was a bit overwhelming. All the same he attempted to enjoy himself, or at least live the day in some neutral state of acceptance. He had stopped near a booth where a coydog called out for participants to join in a little duck hunting game. Waiting his turn he stepped up and dove for the nearest wooden duck.

Duchess wandered carefully through the festival actually trying to avoid most of the wolves. Why was she even here? Maybe she thought she would catch someone's attention. Otherwise it was overwhelming being around so many others. She had enjoyed company but in single waves, nothing like this.
She heard the coydog calling out for his game to play, 'hunting ducks'. It seemed easy enough as she walked through the gates and saw the little wooden figurines floating in the pond. Just taking a couple steps into the water and picking one of the ducks floating by. She flipped it over to examine it, looking to the coydog so see what she had won.

Serenity wasn't used to being so social, but it wasn't difficult being here. She didn't really go out of her way to meet others, but she was easily friendly and likable. She walked around with interest at the carnival, watching as wolves played games at the booths and got to know one another. She wouldn't have minded if someone approached her but she wasn't going to push herself into conversation.
Coming across the coydog with a pond of false ducks, she entered through the gates and looked around at her options. She moved farther into the pool and picked up a random duck she felt looked the luckiest and then headed back to the coydog running the game to hand it off to him with a wag of her tail.

Acacius split off from his family early in the carnival, bouncing across the gulley with typical puppy excitement until he'd found what he was looking for - games. There were a variety of options and he knew he'd only have time for one before the tournaments began. It took a good amount of arguing with his imaginary friend to convince Acacius which game was best for his skill set, but he'd arrived at the duck pond before it was too late which was all that mattered.
All the ducks looked identical, bobbing up and down in the water with no way to tell what prize was within which duck. He consulted with the empty space at his side for a moment, then stepped forward to grasp a duck between his puppy teeth.

Mitros' short life had been jam packed full of adventure so far, and with a carnival in town it was only going to get that much better. He peeled off from his multitude of siblings and went off in search of fun and games, finding himself coming up along a booth with a coydog excitedly gesturing him forward to play. His bright tail wagged happily as he bounded forward toward the pond and the ducks, eyes alight with wonder and curiousity. He was only allowed to choose one?? The choice was hard, and more than once he'd nearly grabbed a duck, but changed his mind at the last second and veered toward a different one. Finally his teeth found purchase in the wood of one that felt 'right', and he held it up excitedly to the attendant to see what she'd say about it.

Asmodeus was in a slump, but had agreed to attend the carnival regardless. Eli was nowhere to be found, his mother and father had fallen into despair, someone had to step up and show their face to the world on behalf of Aerie and Abraxas. A small part of him hoped he'd see Aoife, the wolf who'd quickly gone from stranger to best friend ever during their first festival together. He wanted to tell her about his new quills, about his sister's death, his uncle's absence. His thoughts were wandering and he nearly missed the gesture of the attendant running the duck pond, who'd been encouraging him to come play. Deus' muzzle wrinkled briefly, but he stepped up to the pond regardless. He doubted he was capable of having any real sort of fun, but at least he might win a prize to take home to his depressed mother. Deus reached forward, grabbing the first duck he saw and holding it up to the attendant for her appraisal.

Cen moved quickly through the crowds, dodging out of the way of much taller wolves and keeping her eyes and ears down. It was so loud and busy here and some part of the girl was regretting going to the festival, she was easily overwhelmed and she was often underfoot, forcing her to constantly be aware of if she was under paw or not.
The various voices barking out to pull in wolves to look at their wares or play their games were so loud and yet for some reason this coydog's words reached her and the tiny girl cautiously approached the booth, a guaranteed win sounded nice? She stood as tall as she could on her hindlegs, and made to grab at the nearest duck.

Emile was definitely out of his element, he wasn't used to being around so many wolves and the young man mostly stuck to the less traversed areas of the festival. He pulled his ears back against the barking of the coydogs, they were so loud. He passed a few booths boasting skill-testing games, yeah he wasn't about to do those, not when he had no skills to speak of. His stomach clenched against the strong scent of all the foods and he whined slightly. Finally, though he heard the calling of the floppy-eared coydog and despite himself, he found himself getting drawn in. He watched for a moment then nodded, stepping up and grabbing a duck as it flowed past. "Speech" |

Levi wasn't sure what all the fuss was about, or why anyone thought today of all days was worth celebrating. He didn't like how busy it was, the noise and the hustle and bustle had his ears flicking back as he made his way to the duck pond. He saw strangers plucking little wooden ducks out of the water and without much thought strode close to grab one for himself. He didn't really care that prizes were on the line or he could win something of note. The sight of seeing people do something right in front of him just made Levi want to give it a try, make himself look busy so he didn't have to socialise or hang out with his siblings who were no doubt around here somewhere.
Bending down he picked up a duck by its head and held it between his front teeth. Now what?

It was time for fun! For mieschief! Tien loved to take part in things outside the routine, which turned boring after a few days. But this carnival or whatever was called, brough the perfect distraction and of course she wasnt going to let it go. Eyes of intense blue fixated on the games, but one in particular had caught her attention the most. It included water, and getting all wet and perhaps muddy. "Yes!!!" She muttered, wanting a taste of the good freedom she missed back home. She darted forward, not thinking it twice before lunging herself right over one of the ducks aiming to catch it, not caring if she soaked herself in water, and latter some good mud baths!

Panic brought her grumpy ass into the festival, or a sort of. Loneliness had taken a deep grasp of the female's mind, making her grumpier, distant, focused on things away from her family. All on her eyes had left her behind, her mother, her siblings. That grew on her resentment, a wish to give them the same special treatment, but no, she wouldnt put herself there, she wanted to grow them. But it was as everything in life much easier to just say it than actually doing it. She walked past others, making as if they didnt excist, ghosts, no ones. Her eyes seemed tired from the little sleep, jaws parted with daggers poking in a frown, feeling annoyed. And wanting to discharge it all she would aim to catch a duck.
