Tyrfing attended the carnival with the rest of his family, intending only on signing up for the fighting tournament, but being drawn toward the games nontheless. All around him wolves were throwing things, it was chaotic and loud and full of new smells and Tyrfing found himself all for it. He stepped up toward the table as the attendant beckoned him forward, gazing at each ring where it lay ready for him to grab. They all seemed identical, so he went with his gut and grasped one at random. From above him his hummingbird darted back and forth above the rings. Finding a suitable area to throw towards, Fin pulled back his head and let the ring loose, watching as it soared toward the pegs and hoping the Gods would allow him a solid win today.

Bismuth navigated through the crowds of the festival, eyes mostly downcast as he tried not to draw too much attention to himself. He hadn't initially planned on going, but then the paired races had been announced and that was just too good of an opportunity to pass up for him and Snowflake. And so here he was, looking around at all the fun games and happy wolves. He stopped near a red and white booth with some wooden rings, gaze brightening as he examined the craftsmanship from afar. Perhaps it would be fun to have a go? Bismuth stepped forward when the booth was free, looking momentarily at the coydog as he picked up one of the rings in his mouth. He gazed at the pegs, feeling the weight of the ring in his jaws, before deftly throwing it with a flick of his head, hoping to get something good that he could maybe gift to his friend.

Hage expertly weaved around and underneath the rest of the wolves at the festival, easily moving around to avoid being stepped on. His small frame was a hinderance but also a gift depending on the circumstances, and in this case it was a bit of both. His pale eyes were squinted as he looked over all the booths, his interest piqued when one of the coydogs called out for someone to test their luck at a game of skill. He had skill. Surely this would be easy enough. His short legs brought him over to the red and white booth, scoffing softly at the coydog as he picked up the wooden ring in his mouth, grunting softly as he set himself up for a good throw. He was so short he could barely see over the edge of the booth, but with a great heave Hage chucked the ring out towards the pegs, feeling confidant he'd claim a prize.

She stuck to the edges of the walkways, making sure to put off an air of indifference in the hopes to not have anyone try and speak with her, and if they even dared she'd pretend to not know the common tongue. Iðunn was simply here to cheer on her cousins who had decided to participate in the tournament and races, but also figured while she was here she could play a game and snatch a gift. Depending on what she got perhaps she could give it to one of her family members. They would appreciate it more than what she usually gave them. Her long legs brought her to a red and white booth with a bunch of wooden rings and pegs. Eyebrows raising, familiar with the concept of the game, she snatched up a ring in her maw without so much as a second glance at the coydog. Taking a moment to eye the pegs, deciding the one she wanted to hit, Iðunn whipped her head around to chuck the ring with a surprising amount of force, her eyes narrowed in concentration.

The coydog shakes her head regretfully, giving you a sympathetic look. ”Too bad, sugar. Keep practicing and y’all come back and try again next year.” With a sigh of disappointment she turns back to watching the other players.

Laith slinked around, happy that he was finally somewhat free of Hattori's watchful gaze and able to take part in the festival, but still very annoyed that he was being followed around by the big cat. The monstrous-sized pink woman was also chaperoning him here, and no matter what he tried he just couldn't shake both of them for some much-needed alone time. It was frustrating, but he was here, so he figured he might as well do something fun. He made his way to a random booth, looking at the coydog as it called out to attract wolves to play. Tossing a ring around a peg? That was a child's game, so easy. Laith picked up a wooden ring, feeling the weight in his mouth as he turned to the side before flicking it out towards the pegs. Surely he'd land on one, this couldn't be too hard after all.

Legacy Ancora

It had taken much coaxing to get her to come to the carnival, but in the end, her mother and several of the other Nomads had convinced her it would be good for her to let go of her heartache. It was so hard to look around and not think that she should have been here with her father… both her fathers, and her siblings. But she was here with her cousins and packmates that had also decided to come; she suspected a lot of them had come because of the tourney that was mentioned. A game caught her eye and she drew in a breath, pulling her features into a smile even if she didn’t feel it as she padded forward and watched the games and participants. A ring toss? Finally, Legacy committed and moved forward as the next wolf finished and left, flipping a ring over the top of her black-toed paw and flinging it toward the intended peg.

It had taken far longer than he would have liked to cross Auster to attend the festival, but he supposed it was a consequence of his own choosing. In the long run he didn't think it'd prove to be too much of an issue, as affairs like this did not happen all too often. And good thing too, as Hattori couldn't say he was all too fond of big crowds like this. Too many eyes, too much going on.

Keen to distract himself, Hattori approached one of the many booths and did his best to ignore the grating voice of the coydog, who was doing his best to be both loud and obnoxious it seemed. Grabbing a hold of one of the rings, he tossed it forward in the hopes it would slot onto one of the many pegs. Hopefully all of this would be worthwhile, in some form or another.

When mom told her they were going to a carnival, Widow was nervous and excited all the same. With the promise of fun, games, and maybe some friends, Widow set off with her family towards the gully. With her cat riding a top her back and raven coasting above them, she promised to be good before setting off to play a game.

A voice called out and earned her attention and quickly she approached the tent with bottle and rings. After assessing the challenge, Widow was excited. With toes as dexterous as hers, this should be easy! Grasping the ring in her paws, she flicked her wrist as she aimed to ring a bottle and maybe win!

The travel was hard for Magnus given his age and condition, but that didn't stop him from making the trip to the carnival. Most of the Armada wolves passed him, but he didn't care. Once he made it, the aging man stumbled around looking between the games and moving through the crowd. He watched a few others before settling on a ring toss that seemed easy enough.

Hobbling over, Magnus lifted himself to lean against the counter and grabbed a ring. Aiming for the bottles, Magnus flicked a ring across the board and hoped to catch a bottle by the neck. He wasn't hopeful, but maybe if the end of his life had any luck left he'd find it today.

Curiosity got the better of him, Haüyne was not exactly a social wolf but he was willing to risk the crowds to sate his curiosity. He'd perused some of the snacks, even tried a few but now he had his eyes on some of the colorful prizes several of the coydogs were offering, there had been one booth that had boasted a guaranteed prize rate but if the young Destruction was being honest he wasn't interested in hand outs. But this? Now, this looked like it would give him the challenge he wanted! The young man stepped up to the counter, gently gripped a ring in his mouth and with all the grace of a dog with no thumbs doing a ring toss, tossed his head back and launched the ring, hoping for a bullseye.

Kione had been wandering with bright eyes about the festival ground.  His mouth was slightly open in a broad grin, soaking in all the feelings of merriment.  The wild dog lived life to the fullest, fighting with all his power and emotion, and at the same time, he laughed and partied with the same frivolous joy.
 
He had heard others of his pack coming to this and so the wild dog had been quick to join in.  Later he’d be entering a race with one of the pups he hadn’t spent much time with but for now his interest was piqued by this ring toss game.  

“Hey pal, this looks mighty fun.” Kione scooped up a ring, twirling it a moment around his paw before flinging it towards one of the poles

Ever since the two wolves picked him up and took him back to their home on the island, he did everything he could to earn his keep and show his appreciation for their kindness. Though he wasn't quite expecting to be taken to a carnival of all things, he would by lying if he'd said that he wasn't excited. He'd never seen something before and after further explanation was eager to play a game. Although all of it came crashing to a halt when they arrived and he caught sight of the crowd. Swallowing the lump that had formed in his throat, he followed the partners around until they paused near a game that held his interest.

Tossing rings at bottles seemed silly, but as he saw others winning prizes he became curious himself and wondered if he too could win something. After looking for approval from his masters, he hesitantly grabbed a ring and tossed it into the playing field.

Abaven was an interesting place and he was finding himself quite at home there, soaking up any knowledge he could get his paws on from the professors. He was eager to make Theory proud to have accepted him into the pack after Solo had kept him secret for so long, even without punishment! Though there was little stopping the yearling once he heard of a carnival down in the south. Making the trip with other abaven members, Raure mostly kept to himself and wondered what it would be like. Supposedly there would be fun and games, so he didn't hesitate. Once at the carnival, Raure spent time wandering from booth to booth and weighing the odds between each game. He'd never seen anything like them before, but with many crowded are one specific booth, Raure paused to watch. After some moments and it was his turn, he gripped a ring loosely and tossed it towards the bottles. It seemed like others were walking away with some good prizes, so he figuratively crossed he toes that he'd have the same luck. "speech"

Cerberus had never left the pack lands of Fenmyre saved for that one time he and Dalila had patrolled the neighboring land of Cedar Falls. Outwardly he didn't show much excitement or emotion. But inside he was beaming. He was used to being around his family though that he didn't really know how to interact with all these strangers. He certainly wasn't a very boisterous pup.

Hearing the woman speak of her game, he stopped to look at her heavily scarred face and instantly wondered what could have happened to her. He didn't question out loud of course, but instead moved forward for the game thinking that maybe he could catch something she spoke to someone else. Without staring at her features, he focused on the task at hand and tossed a ring toward the peg with his paw.

The small donkey works his way through the crowd of wolves, skirting closer to his herd mates anytime a wolf got too close. Taiga is an imposing presence and many stop to stare at the huge cave lioness as they pass. Still, the festive atmosphere is infectious and, when the group walks by a booth with a coydog barking about a ring toss, Oscar pulls up short. Game you say? Turning to the reindeer, the grumpy ass smirks, challenging, “Oi Kyren. Bet ya can’t hit the broad side of a barn with those rings.” Flaring his nostrils and puffing out his chest, Oscar turns to prance over to the booth. Nugget sits comfortably on his butt, little talons gripping the donkey’s long fuzz and glancing around at all the colorful things. Oscar steps up, taking a ring in his flat teeth. Lowering his head, Oscar then flicks it back up quickly, tossing the ring toward the pegs. He watches its arching path through the air, quietly hopping he hits something.

Relm had been in a weird state of her life, maybe it was the changes in her body as she grew older. It was probably a strange time for most wolves her age. She never looked too far into it, it wasn't like she was around others enough to really navigate her feelings.

Except for today.

Walking through the carnival, she avoided most everyone she became close to. She was clearly not looking for any sort of social contact. She came across the ring toss, looking at the heavily scarred woman and just feeling the urge to play her game out of... pity? Maybe? She didn't know, she didn't care. She quickly grabbed the ring and tossed it. She'd hurry away after she won or lost.

Chade walked about the festival, eyes wide with wonder at the sight.  Lots of the pack was here, somewhere, and he assumed also enjoying themselves.  Still, in this new area surrounded by a lot of strangers, Chade could think of no one he wanted to be with more than his brother.  

After a bit, he nodded towards the ring toss, “bet we can both ace this.”  Chade had surely changed lately.  At this festival around strangers, he wasn’t feeling wary but instead had a streak of competitiveness to him.

Slipping one of the rings in his paw, Chade swung his paw out, flinging the ring in an arc to go up a bit before down towards the pegs.  At least, that was how he imagined the throw would go.

Ricin sticks close to Chade’s side as the brothers walk through the carnival. Wolves are laughing, shouting in happiness as they win prizes or groaning loudly is disappointment at losing. The noises cause the lighter boy to feel restless, the urge to run tickling the back of his mind. Chade points out a booth with a coydog hyping up their game, something about tossing a ring over some pegs. The darker pup steers them toward it and Ricin follows, wanting to see what this game is all about. The lighter boy gets distracted by some colorful balloons and suddenly the coydog is directing him to step up to the line. Eyebrows shoot up but he does as instructed, picking up a wooden ring with his teeth to carefully lob it the pegs. Ricin only stays to see if he has won something before scampering off to rejoin Chade.

Who the heck heard of a reindeer showing up at a festival for predators?  Well, this reindeer had come with an incredibly large and scary cat that should intimidate anyone thinking of a reindeer dinner.  As it was Kyren was well over 5ft heigh with his own saber fangs to defend himself.  He was still admittedly a bit wary in the current surrounding, still, he approached the ring toss he’d seen Taiga at and helped himself to a ring, picking it up with his teeth.

A Raven rested on his velvety antlers, looking down at the ring curiously.  “Don’t miss, miss.“ the raven’s gravelly voice spoke up.

He’d been extra snarky to Oscar lately, maybe he could win him a nice prize.  Twisted his head about Kyren threw the ring, hoping this would actually work.

Something exciting was going on, Cy could feel it. There was a pep in her step as she made her way towards the tent, long legs carrying her easily through the tall grass. This was where she'd met Oki the first time... Fern Gulley. Nah, she wouldn't get all weird and nostalgic about it. Hell, it hadn't even been that long ago. No, she was here (apparently) to play-- and to win. With an easy, near lazy grin playing on her face, she strode up to the pile of rings. She lifted one easily. Lighter than she expected, okay, she'd need to account for that. With a bit of effort, she chucked the ring at the pegs that sprang from the ground. Would it land? Cy could hope!
