Ashton Griffone || Central Point || Public Party || Friday Evening
After a bit of walking, it didn't take long for Ashton to come upon a interesting sight to say the least. A street covered in lights, crowds cheerfully jumbling about around some booths. The sounds of loud music and the steps of dancing people echoing her ears. It would seem there was some sort of holiday festival happening. Great! Perhaps she could get a bite to eat, maybe even meet a friend or two? The towering scar face blonde wandered through the festive street, amethyst eyes glancing around. The bright orbs lighting up like a Christmas tree as the excited firefighter gazed around before sniffing the air. Catching the scent of cookies, Ashton gave a bright smile and made a bee line toward the direction. Long legs carrying her smoothly and her towering figure causing others to nervously step out of her way.
Stopping in front of a stall, a older man was handing out holiday cookies shaped in all sorts of festive items. Christmas trees, ornaments, gingerbread men, and little snowman. Eyes shimmering as she starred at them, she turned her gaze to the man and waved her right hand eagerly in a greeting.
Giving a soft yawn, the older man looked up before jumping a little at the excitable bundle of huge joy that was made up of Ashton. One would have to be surprised to see a towering beanstalk with a heavily scarred face smiling like the Cheshire cat.
"Ah, Ashton? Is that you? You startled me boy! Aren't you fresh out of that little accident that happened a week ago? Should you really just be going about running in such festivities?" The older man said in a gruff tone, but overall seemed to have a good heart about it.
Ashton gave a wide smile, raising her left arm and putting it behind her head, hand slightly ruffling the dirty blonde hair as she just gave a cheeky grin.
Rolling his eyes, the older man gave a smile and pulled out a bag of assorted cookies and held it out to her. "Well I suppose the city's best firefighter has to have some fun. Hardly get it I bet. Here, on me pal as thanks for getting my stupid drunken bastard of a son out of that tree." he said gruffly but gave a chortled laugh.
Returning the smile, the tall firefighter took the bag and gave a little bow of appreciation. Holding her free arm above her head and waved wildly in farewell as she kept walking. Before eagerly opening the little back and starting to happily much on cookies. Starting with the top of a Christmas tree, which caused Ashton's face to visibly bright at the taste of delicious sugar cookies. Indeed, she did love her sweets.
