Welcome to Gaia! ::

SUDDENLY THERE WAS AN ISRAFEL.

(idk sosi I can remove him if he can't be here)

Jericho's gaze nervously drifted towards the others as he saw them come on in. Shehk and Lizzy where here at least, for people who could probably calm him down if something happened. Shifting in place, he soon turned towards Moira as she got things started.

Make some baskets. He could do this.

It wasn't dangerous at all too. Nodding, he made his way towards the piles of fruit. There were no worries of him trying to eat any of these. He hated fruit. If it were a large pile of meat instead, that would be a completely different story. Looking over all the choices, he first grabbed some caramel apples to add to his basket.

From there, he decided to add some booberries, and a starfuit.

This just left one more thing he'd need. Hm. Pumpkins. Yes. That should work. He didn't know if these pumpkins were usable but the horsemen could probably use some to help boost their population... right?

Hearing Shehk, Jericho glanced to her before giving a rather weak chuckle.

"I hope not. I'm.. not a fruit eater though, so I don't really know for sure. I'm guessing it's all... alright though."

People ate these things after all. Then again, there were those who would eat a bag of sugar. Hm. Well. Hopefully the horsemen wouldn't be offended with these offerings. That would be awkward if that happened.

Sheridan had been standing with his arms crossed and his eyes narrowed, an expression on his face that may have made it clear he had absolutely no interest whatsoever in the subject of the class. Snort, welcoming the horsemen, why should they welcome those who had proven themselves far from trustworthy into their midst. Would they have been so welcoming to humans or hunters? Of course they wouldn't have! And yet those they knew so little about, those whose true motives and loyalties were completely hidden had been welcomed with open arms. Well, when (if) the horsemen turned on them, he wouldn't be among those caught off guard.

And yet, for all the grumpiness in his expression, the twitching of his tail betrayed a sense of interest, perhaps one of curious anticipation. The tuft of his tail flicked back and forth, like a cat watching the mouse hole for something to emerge, as if he were waiting to see just what would happen, though if asked what he thought that was he would not have been able to answer.

A brow raised as the 'instructor' entered the room, followed by the parade of gnomes carrying even more fruit. Dear jack, how many baskets did she expect them to make?

Uncrossing his arms, he stepped toward the table, pausing for a moment as he caught sight of Angenora and with a smile walked over to her.

"Hey."

A friendly wave and a hug, he settled at the table beside her, looking over the piles of fruit. He sniffed at the fruit, examining it with curiosity, though he made no attempts, nor did he have the desire to, at tasting it. Not that he was opposed to fruits, he did in fact enjoy them at times, but he wasn't especially interested in trying these at that moment. Now if there had been spookies or cupcakes? That would have been an entirely different matter.

"Think they brought enough fruit?"

It wasn't a serious question, but rather one of good natured sarcasm, it seemed to him there was more than enough fruit here and would have been even if the class had had twice as many participants.

After several moments of further examination, Sheridan at last chose a basket and then began to select his fruit. The starfruit in particular caught his attention, as much in name as in shape, their color he also found intriguing. After that he chose a pineapple and prickly pear, giving no thought to what they might have tasted like, but instead on their appearance, the spinyness seemed fitting to him. Uncertain of what to choose for the fourth item just yet, he resolved to decide that later and began arranging the items he had into the basket.

In the center he placed the large pineapple, while he carefully arranged the prickly pears on either side, one shorter than the other so that the items made three tiers of varying levels. Atop of each of the tiers he placed a piece of cut star fruit, pausing to admire its shape before doing so. The remaining star fruit he place along the base of the pineapple and prickly pears and then stopped to look over the entire piece. Hmm, there was certainly something missing, his fourth item, but what? Perhaps something to fill in the center section. Ah yes, a bunch of grapes will fill that place perfectly. Choosing a rather large bunch of grapes, he placed it in the center of the basket so that it was flanked by the pineapple, prickly pears, and star fruit.

Satisfied, he looked over his basket with a nod, then pushed it toward the center of the table.

So, they had to make fruit baskets yes? Looking at the choices, the wolfos blinked. Stared. Blinked. Stared. Fruit baskets. He'd never put one together before and wasn't really sure what one put in aside from..fruit. Or rather, he wasn't sure if the fruit has some kind of meaning. Did pumpkins symbolize fertility? Booberries, one's frightful appearance? Boafox cherries... for fluffy? He picked a lemon out and sniffed it before setting it back.

The gnomes looked at him like he'd been about to eat it. Really, like he'd eat a lemon. He was more interested in the oranges and starfruits. Oranges could be used to make orange juice so maybe they symbolized a fresh start? Starfruits... to symbolize star.. power? Frost in the Storm shrugged, grabbing them both.

One fruit he'd never seen before. It smelled sweet and had a rather prickly shell and stiff leaves at the top. It was heavy and rather oval. Horsemen would like this? Maybe. He added is lopsidedly to his basket. Maybe it meaned... Din's tit he hadn't any clue but he wad trying. Picking booberries, he tossed those in as well. Why? Why not. Maybe they would be a good snack.

Fruit basket?! She smiled, happily nodding when they were given the instructions to make one; she had never put a fruit basket together before, but it sounded like a lot of fun! Besides, it was thoughtful of Moira to wish to welcome the horsemen into Halloween with the gift of fruit - with their home destroyed, they must be in need of resources, such as food.

Looking over the different fruits, she eventually settled on four fruits with rather distinct flavors - caramel apples, lemons, pineapples, and pumpkin. Once the fruits were chosen, she took her own sweet time to assemble her basket, doing her best to make it presentable.

She hoped that they would be given the opportunity to decorate it... This basket would look so much better with a ribbon or two.
