Well, not the entire casino, but Trixie was alert enough to pick up on it right away. She piped up, a curious dog, trying to glance over the myriads of people all sitting or rushing in her way. But her all too small size prevented her from seeing absolutely anything beyond clothed towers of differently colored hair. Welp. Maybe she should respond back to let her know she wasn't having much luck either? Estelle would appreciate that, right? So Trixie cupped her mouth and shouted towards the ceiling - "I DON'T SEE HIM!" - although her scream was practically reduced to a squeak thanks to the booming palace drowning out anything that wasn't a machine. But her cries were heard. Hallelujiah, the message got through to Estelle somehow, wherever she was. Like Trixie's voice, her response was muffled compared to everything else too - but it was still there. "WHAAAAAT?" So Trixie squawked back. "I DON'T SEE HIMMMMM!" "......WHAAAAAT?" "I SAAAAAAAID!" Trixie paused to cough. "I DON'T. SEE. HIMMMM!" --- [img]http://i.imgur.com/t9SKBzc.png[/img] [b][u]Los Paraisos: Some randomass parade outside the Ddaear Café[/b][/u] Right so instead of helping Amy out of her dilemma, Moira caved in and plopped a mask on herself as well. Ah. So [i]that's[/i] what they were wearing!? Geez, looking at the massive size of that thing nearly made Amy topple over again just from knowing she was trapped under one too. Of course she buggered off to frighten the panties off of Syed. Luckily whoever made these godsforsaken masks left enough room to see. Although if Amy weren't on the brink of tripping over herself and [i]dying[/i] from a stampede attack, she would've found the whole thing to be hilarious. And with Moira unreliable for help, Syed offered in her place. Awesome. Amy's voice was laced with subtle sarcasm. "Yeah that'd be great if you could—" Then Moira came back and ripped the demon right off Amy's head. She nearly fell over probably the fifth time by now had she not landed on that freak woman who came back and pouted at them. Amy was ever so ready to tell the woman to piss off right on back to the hellhole from which she spawned - but Syed already spoke up for her. Fantastic. She looked to him, her expression unreadable. She appreciated the help but especially now that she could see where she was going, she really didn't need some [i]guy[/i] to go and— Aaaand then the freak came back! With more hats. With fucking hats and fucking pieces of fucking paper. She proffered them to both Amy and Syed before cocking her head - probably winking at them through her demon dragon head - and waltzing back to her groupie. Amy too just looked down at what she received. "I'm not wearing this. This is--OW, WHAT THE FUCK." One hand over her head, Amy whirled around to see a group of three potbellied men wearing white oni masks. They waved around giant wooden panels. The two in the back were humming some freak chant that went along surprisingly well with the rest of the parade's music, while the frontman screamed something along the lines of "Begone, ye impure spirits!" Then the other two chimed in as well, their bodies in shaky movements to keep up with the rhythm of the rest of the parade. "Yeah begone, bro!" "Yeah demon-dragon-sis, begone!" Obviously recreating some outdated demon-expelling process. As much as Amy wanted to comment on how backward it looked, the frontman just whacked her on the head again and kept screaming at her to begone. She withdrew her sword, her palm of death, and readied it to smack the paddle right out of this 'bro's hand. But then more of them started to pop up behind the oni-bastards. What the fuck was this stupid shit. "Gotta pass onto someone else, demon-dragon-chick!" someone from the back called. "Else we gotta batter you senseless! Keep the game going, yo!" "Yeah demon-bro!" Another oni-face popped up behind Syed, smacking the paddle into his palm. "Ye evil spirit gonna run or what, bro?" --- [b][u]Los Paraisos: The Pellagio - Casino[/b][/u] [i]In the meantime...[/i] As Lisette bustled through the palace of sweaty gamblers and deafening noise, a woman stood in her upcoming path, watching her with concern. With the way the girl glanced around worriedly as she pushed her way through the crowds, it was obvious she was either lost or desperately looking for someone. That or trying to figure out what to do with the cute critter that was in her arms - unless that belonged to her? No one ever seemed to follow the rules with this place, since she could've sworn she saw a child much too small to be on her own running around as well. Then again the security guards were too busy gambling away themselves to even bother enforcing anything. The woman, dark skinned and barely clad in ripped jean shorts and a corset-like red top to emphasize her curvaceous figure, stood along the center of the aisle flicking her nails as she waited for Lisette to approach close enough to nearly bump into her. "Hey girlie, lookin' a little lost. Need any help?" [img=http://i.imgur.com/ydiqnn6.png]
