Madiquel might be sharp, but she was also spectacularly distracted by everything going on around them; the music! The dancing! The crowds of people swirling around them everywhere. The scents of food and the cool touch of water as she gratefully swallowed the rest of what was in her glass, and refilled it while A’tay seemed to be lost in thought. Getting lost in thought herself, Madiquel was busy watching the current song end, putting her glass down so that she could join in the excited applause, when she heard A’tay mumble something.
“What?” She asked, turning to follow his gaze, and bursting into peals of giggles when Shadow appeared, the little firelizard darting past her to show A’tay his prize. She continued giggling, even as bright eyes flickered, looking for Clover, who was (of course) zipping along in Shadow’s wake. Madiquel giggled more, reaching up to entice her little firelizard onto her arm, watching as Cover flopped around her neck and pouted at her, even as she got the vague sense that Shadow had promised her some of his prize, which was most likely stolen. Madiquel continued giggling, encouraging Clover to go and fight for her share if that was what she wanted.
The little green firelizard gave a shriek of joy, and launched herself off Madiquel and tumbled into Shadow, squealing and projecting emotions that told Madiquel pretty clearly that Clover wanted her share. Now. With very little in the way of manners. Giggling, and looking with wide eyes at A’tay, Madiquel bit her bottom lip, eyes wide at the low scale trouble she’d just caused, her hands pressed against her mouth as she struggled not to laugh, though naughty little giggles struggled free occasionally. “Oh my!” she spluttered, still giving soft little cackling like giggles, “Sorry!” she snorted, the sound bubbling into laughter, punctuated with some more little snorts of amusement.
It took a couple of moments before Madiquel could speak, and she looked with apologetic, wide eyes up at A’tay. “Sorry!” she burst into another little splattering of giggles. “Lets dance, before someone realises they’re ours!” Her nose crinkled up as she laughed mischievously, snorting some more, and she tugged on A’tay’s hand to lead him back into the swarm of dancers. Random little ‘tee hee hees’ bubbling forth as they went.
