Love! Death! War! They all Love a Rabbit!

Monsterphilia's Nightmare! Bell Cranel Enters!

The air around Orario was bustling with the sweet scent of delicacies and variety of food floating in the air. Many tourists and children seeming to run about on the packed roads as carriages rode down. 

Walking about the streets with wonder in his eyes as he couldn't stop moving his head back and forth. Too amazed at everything and anything in sight, Bell wondered if his face would freeze from excitement. With a spring in his step, he was about to hop over several people in glee and excitement, if it wasn't for the sudden pull on the back of his collar to prevent him from doing so. 

"Gah! Come on Pops! Why do you have to hold me back from seeing the festival!" Bell whined as he was dragged back. The grip on his yellow button up shirt tightened as his boot covered feet were dragged and he was forcefully turned towards him. His hat that he bought from one of the stalls recently fell off but rested on his back thanks to the strap it had.

"You can look later! We're supposed to meet with Lady Freya first. She apparently has a surprise for you that needed time. Then and only then, can you go about looking at the festivites of Monsterphilia." Hedin said as he let go of Bell abruptly.

While Bell understood they needed to meet with Freya first, he couldn't help but pout at how Hedin had to be rude and just drop him without warning. Getting up and dusting off his black pants from any dirt and fixing his button up, he placed back his orange hat, donned with red beads and two faces on it and followed him.

"Harsh there don't you think brother? But why spoil the fun on a day like today! I'm sure Lady Freya wouldn't see the harm in us bringing her something back while we're waking to her. Like maybe a mask from one of the booths!" Hogni suggested as he pointed out the vast games and stalls they were walking past by. 

"Oh yeah! Maybe even bring her some sweets like funnel cakes and crepes! She was meeting with some goddess at a cafe right? Sweets go well with a cafe!"

"Right you are my young pupil! And a gift from us would make her day even better! Gifts from her children and Monsterphilia! It'll be a grand ol time and fill her with joy!" Hogni and Bell said as the two danced around Hedin and stopped to pose at him. Pointing their fingers at him while covering part of their faces.

However, they weren't expecting them now to be faced down on the dirt road. Groaning and having several large lumps on their heads, steaming and glowing red as Hedin's hand was clenched tight and smoke coming off from it. His glasses gleaming pure white, and his face shadowed as he looked down at them.

"Quit that! It's fine if you do that duo crap at home, but public it's unberable!" Hedin said as he forced the two idiots up on their feet and started to drag them by their shirts. Ignoring their cries and protest along the way as he took lead in heading towards the designated place.

In said cafe, where Hedin and the others are to meet, sat two goddesses across from one another at the table. Sitting in the outdoor balcony, the shade cooling them and their guest as they sat in moderate silence. Saving the sound of ice melting and moving in the glass.

"So, mind telling me why you brought up this meeting Freya. You aren't the type to suddenly invite people for a simple chat." 

Freya paused for a moment, glass in hand as she pulled it away from her lips before she could take a drink. Playfully pouting at the goddess as she set it down and rested her chin on the back of her hand and leaned forward.

"Oh? Then you must have not heard about me and Phae's little get togethers lately. Believe me we do talk and gossip so much now that time seems to just slip by us. Could it be, that you feel all alone Loki~" Freya said, teasing Loki at being wrong to assume she wouldn't mind having a nice chat with other gods if she felt like it.
