Pet Raffle

Postby Elektra » 05/14/2011 11:38 AM

M'kay.  I realize that my shop has a LOT of pets in it, and really, I don't think any of them will ever be bought, but I also don't want them to stay there.  So I decided that I'll have a raffle.  Now, I'm not going to have a fancy machine or anything do it for me, I'm just going to put all the names in a bowl/hat/etc and draw for each pet.  I'll determine whether or not I want for someone to be put back into the hat or kept out depending on what they've already received pet wise, so, for example, if you got a Kuhna and another pet, I might be reluctant to enter you again, at least if there are a lot of people who are in this raffle.  Anywho, just choose a number between 1-50, and I'll draw in two weeks from the day this was posted.  Below this post will be a new one that will have all the pets that are being raffled off, so that you all can see what you're entering for.  If that didn't make any sense, sorry...  xD;  And if you don't mind, at the end of your entry post, please put quacking quail to show that you read the post here.


Now, for your entry post, it doesn't have to be long, but you do have to roleplay your post, and in it must be your bolded/italicized/underlined entry number.

My, the little electric dragon was having a busy day. The little raffle wasn't exactly far from the Seasonal Specialties shop, which it had just visited, but nonetheless its wings were very tired. It landed with a thump and slithered up to the ballot box. The amphiptere grabbed a pen in the tiny claws at the crest of its wings, and scribbled a small 42 on a slip of paper. It placed the pen back where it belonged and dropped the tiny slip of paper into the bowl. Smiling, the dragon slithered into the shade of a nearby tree to wait for the results.

(I can't say I've ever heard a quacking quail before. Perhaps it's just a duck in a quail suit? xD)



But there will come a time
You'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart
But dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see
What you find there
With grace in your heart
And flowers in your hair



"Tomorrow will be a good day."

Most people moved out of the way as they saw the strange colored hair girl walk through. Not that she was terrifying or threatening. But because of the fierce looking Panzer that followed behind her. It's low growls and scary snarls forced everyone out of the way.
The weirdest thing was each time the girl would look to the Panzer, it would suddenly loose the fierceness and would act like a little kitten. Forcing many of the people around them to lean their heads to one side in confusion.
The girl finally made it to her target destination, stopping at a little raffle post. She smiled sweetly as she leaned in and read the rules.
"Hi hi! I would love to enter! Well, me and Fluffy here!" She said loudly, to excited to quiet herself.
She leaned down and picked up the large cat, who at the moment she leaned down had turned into the sweetest little fuzz ball ever. He purred lightly and mewed softly when the girl had held him out to the one holding the event to see. When she placed him back down and looked away, the Panzer arched it's back and started to growl at the people around them again.
"Can I enter with the number 3?" She asked as she scribbled the number on a piece of paper and placing it in the bowl.
She smiled widely and sat down next to the stand, waiting to see who would be the winner. Fluffy curling up around her back, his head resting in her lap.

Kama was certainly nervous.  She had a large family and was the most shy out of all of them, so why they sent her on this errand she didn't know.  True, she was much more mature, but she was also much younger than the rest.  Nevertheless, she didn't want to be embarrassed in front of her family if she returned without completing this simple task.  
She quickly found the place she needed to be and placed a note on the counter.  "Um... it says... 'I would like to enter this raffle with the number 13.'  and um... my mother signed it in case... I was too young to enter on my own."  she smiled politely.  
Kama always smiled when she was nervous, even if someone was yelling at her.

(Quacking quail?  You are an odd one, indeed.  :3)


I think back to the time when my search first began,
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there.

I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere!

Didn't understand why I was sent here. There were plenty others back home that could have gone in my stead. It was no wonder Nina wasn't sent over, but still. I guess it really didn't matter in the end, though. I glanced around, seeing all the people around me. There weren't many people yet, but for something like this, there was no doubt that they would all start flocking soon enough.

I slowly padded over to the table with a bowl on it, taking a slip of paper and scribbling down the number 17. It was my lucky number, I thought, so it would probably bring me good luck, right? I looked over at the lady behind the table telling her, "Thank you for doing this." I quickly dropped the piece of paper into the bowl and sat down, watching everybody else.

{{A quacking quail... Is it a quail that quacks or something? Didn't know those existed. XDDD}}


A beautiful moon shines above again tonight,
And it sheds light happily over the world.
As for me, I'm just worthless, good for nothing,
Dreaming at daybreak, creeping at dawn.

Still I'll scream into the sky, hoping that somebody will find me.
I want to run, but there's no way out--
No bright future in sight.
But I still fly up like a butterfly, hoping that you'll find me.
A crescent moon, ugly children of the stars, flying with broken wings...!

Ooh, a raffle, a raffle! She adored these things. On more than one occasion she had wondered if she might have a teensy gambling problem, but she'd always dismissed those ideas. She just enjoyed a bit of harmless betting. It might even result in her making a new friend and that was always fun. Plus, it was free. Kabuto couldn't object to that right?

"Number...48 please." She smiled, having a little trouble making up her mind. For once she hadn't picked Kabuto's lucky number. She had a feeling about this one though, and since her sister was apparently so psychic she was hoping that she'd finally developed some kind of ability. Or maybe she was just kidding herself. Probably the latter

Typhoon had simply been minding her own business when she saw a crowd gathered nearby. Curious, she headed on over, and after some asking around, she found out that it was a raffle of some sorts. It wouldn't hurt to give it a shot, would it? Typhoon took out a small notepad she had been carrying in her pants pocket and went up to the raffle.

"Hi!" she greeted, handing over her slip of paper. "I'd like number 22, please!"

(Quails are cute. Quacking quails are probably cuter.)

Masurao

Although having a true human form, the brute made his way up to the contest area in his Lucain form. He preferred it when out and about away from his usual areas. Why, Masurao could not tell you, but that's just the way it was. He was here to try and take home a friend for Chishio. It was a nice gesture. She did a lot of good for others, why not do something for her? She deserved it. Masurao stopped, looking at what seemed to be a good area to give it a try. He was sure that Chishio would be happy with whomever he was able to bring back to the cave. It was worth a shot. Approaching the person that seemed to be in charge, Masurao spoke up. "Excuse me. But, I'd like to enter the raffle. Lucky number 7, eh?" Masurao gave a friendly wink, and dropped his piece of paper into the bowl. With a nod of his head, he turned and walked off. Now, all he had to do was wait.

A little Piyo fluttered through the crowd. A brightly colored giftbox was tied to hs back with ribbon in the fashion of a bookbag.  His head turned left and right, before he spotted the ign at the booth. A raffle! How fun!. He hurried over, his tiny wings waving excitedly. "!Hola!" he said, looking up at the person there. He flapped onto the counter, tearing a piece of wrapping paper off of his box and grabbing one of the pencils lying around (thankfully they were the short kind). "!Quiero que entrar! Numero 14, por favor." He put his number with the rest. "!Muchos gracias!" With that he hopped off the counter, and went to get ice cream. Yipo noticed the production of the girl with her Panzer. How odd. But then, you saw many odd things. One of these days he'd probably even find a quacking quail.

Claw saw a sign for a raffle. He was getting bored of walking aimlessly down the street, so he decided to check it out. He saw the list of prizes and immediately wanted to enter. "I would like to enter with the number...Um... 34, please.", he said in a gruff voice. He sat by the road and waited for the end of the raffle. "Hope I win somethin'! What in Evelon is a quacking quail?"

The Campbell family were entertaining themselves arguing, Heather Ruggenhall had never felt quite comfortable arguing along with them, whether she had an opinion or not. Miss Ruggenhall being the lover of Mavis Campbell, known to those around her as Mossy, or occasionally Mossy May if everyone was feeling particularly silly. Wrapped up in a second hand fur coat that was threadbare, moulting and smelling of perfume she'd never be able to afford, Heather roamed the streets. Occasionally she'd stop to glance in the window of a shop or business, she felt free in the half-light dusk gave. Not yet had the more unsavoury folk crawled from their dens and rat holes, instead the late shoppers were heading home the sound of their far away chatter reminded Heather of chickens. Nothing to say, and yet they always spoke.

"We must hurry, Macie, you never know what kind of folk scurry about this part of town. Especially after dark, filthy as rats they all are, too!"

Heather smiled to herself, continuing down the street. She would turn back soon, as soon as the light dimmed a little more. She knew the streets like the back of her hand, traversing them in semi-darkness wasn't a problem for her. As she turned the corner she caught sight of something that sparked her interest; a raffle? What an odd place for a raffle to be!

The young woman approached the stall, brushing a strand of dirty blonde hair behind her ear. "Evening, I'd like to pick the number 24, if that's allright."

(Quacking Quails? Quails don't quack, they meep. :3 )


We’re all hysterical & going nowhere together.

C’mon rapture. Let’s go bedazzling.

It was not often that one saw an irritated Lecchi, especially one who didn't have to do any walking. Nevertheless, anyone in the general vicinity of this contest thing was treated to the sight of Ullesker looking very stormy indeed, as he sprawled grumbling across Nenor's back. The Anala apparently tolerated the lizard's griping, although every once in a while the great plume of her tail would flick up across Ullesker, theoretically to make them more visible and less likely to be tripped over.

"Do we really need to be doing this? I don't see why I should have to get up off my nice warm rock just so we can make the house more crowded. Haven't we got enough people who don't pull their weight already?" Ullesker dug his claws into Nenor's fur as she turned a sharp corner. "Hey, watch it!"

"Would you rether I not carry you et all?" Nenor replied pleasantly. "Efter all, it wes you who wes esked to find the reffle. I only kem elong because you said you would stop complening if I did. End look, you're complening anyway."

"Yeah, yeah. Didn't someone important say you should stick to what you're good at?"

"Perheps it would be worthwhile to become good et something else, Lesk. Then people would be willing to be eround you."

It took them only a short time to locate the raffle but considerably longer to actually reach it, since there were more people around than they had anticipated. Eventually they made their way to the stall. Nenor rose onto her hind legs, bracing herself against the stall and forcing her passenger to scramble desperately for a clawhold. "Hello. We hev come to enter your reffle, and esk thet you put the number for--"

"Stop that nonsense," Ullesker snarled, climbing up to lean on her head. "You're as backward as a quacking quail sometimes." He turned to snap at the owner of the stall. "Listen up, because I won't say this again. We're here in representation of an entity at this address--" He rattled off the location of the house. "--and we respectfully ask that you give us the number 43, and if you try to give us anything else we'll send Taggart after you! Got it? Good!" He turned and scampered down his companion's back, disappearing into the crowd. His passage was marked by the flinching of people with suddenly bleeding ankles.

Nenor sighed and said, "I must epologize for my friend. He hesn't hed a very good day. Now if you will excuse me, I must find him so he doesn't mek more trouble." She turned and trotted off after Ullesker at a fairly leisurely pace. He never went very far.

(That...came out a lot longer than I meant it to. Um. Quacking quail. Again. Yeah.)

Wow, oh, wow. It was rare for someone to stumble into such a rare event, much less one with such lovely prizes. While she might admit that there were a few things she wouldn't care for, that Lucain and a few of the kuhnas had certainly caught Azura's eye. Even from far away, she could see that stunner. Man, if she could win that lovely thing, she would be the happiest girl alive. After all, seeing something as beautiful as that boy up for auction was about as rare as... well... a quacking quail. Anyway, she supposed it was as rare as such a thing. She hadn't actually seen such a creature before and had no clue if she ever would anyway.

Well, enough drooling over him. There was a game to be played, and she was always up for games. She had a horrible habit of getting into every raffle and contest in the lands. She somehow had a knack for finding them; not so much of a knack for winning them. Maybe that was why she was staring at the 'cain so intently. Maybe she thought that staring would bring her all the closer to winning something great from this game.

Ah, there she went again, thinking about what she would do if she actually won this contest's grand prize. She always did that with these sorts of things. Still, she had to pick a number and... Oh, bother, her favorites were already gone. "I suppose I'll pick number 18, if you don't mind," she said with a smile. She was hoping Lady Luck would be on her side, but would be content no matter the results. That was part of the fun of these things, right?
