-Charlotte-

"Okay, I honestly think you should be wearing this Delilah," I told her as she adjusted the sash on my outfit.

She snorted and glanced down at her light pink nearly see through robe. "Too much clothing for me. I used to walk around naked but Atlas forced me to stop." She stood up and took a step back before walking around me slowly.

A grin soon appeared on her face. "That ceremonial robe just makes you look cuter. Now, do you want the bangles on your tail?"

"Delilah, Charlotte isn't a doll for you to play with just because you like the way she looks. I highly doubt that she'd want that stuff on her," Ivo told her as he passed through the door without opening.

Delilah looked at him with wide eyes before a nervous sounding laugh escaped her mouth. "I don't think of Charlotte like that. Also, I thought I told you to wait outside with Atlas," she sighed as she crossed her arms.

Ivo shrugged. "I was going to but he's finishing up his tribal paint make up for this festival. Besides, I already know what Charlotte looks like."

I felt heat creep across my face as I looked away from Ivo. "Y-you don't just go around telling people that," I mumbled.

The door opened up as Atlas entered the room. His blonde hair was tied back, above his eyes looked like something similar to purple eyeshadow. Just like me, he was wearing a ceremonial robe for the festival except his was a light red compared to my light blue one. At the top of his wings were small gold hoop piercings.

He was holding a bouquet of lilies in his arms. "Wow, you look really good in that," he said as he grinned at me.

I smiled back at him. "Thanks, you look pretty good yourself. Although those piercings look like they'd be uncomfortable."

"They kinda are but since it's for the Equilux festival it's worth it, besides I'm not the only chimera dressed like this. Especially the male villagers they tend to get more extravagant and colorful with their piercings and robes," he informed me as he readjusted the flowers.

"Anyway, I need to go do something before I meet up with you and Ivo in the village. It shouldn't take more than ten minutes though," Atlas said as Delilah walked back over to him.

"Alright, I'll just find some way to enjoy myself while I wait," I sighed.

When we left the house Atlas headed in the opposite direction of the festival in the middle of town, instead he began walking towards the neighboring forest.

"Let me guess you're going to go start stuffing your face?" Ivo guessed as a slight smirk spread on his face.

"You are a giant bastard," I grumbled.

As I was wading my way through the giant crowds, I could see what Atlas had meant by other Chimeras went all out with their robes and jewelry. All around us were chimeras having fun and drinking various liquids everything from alcohol to juice. Some were dressed in extravagant colorful costumes with jewelry on their tails, horns or wings. The men were wearing dark or colorful makeup either around or above their eyes.
