Her big blue-grey eyes couldn't seem to look far enough ahead, couldn't seem to take in enough of their surroundings as they went. So many pretty bright lights and changing colors everywhere. And she had the very best view from way up on Uncle Legend's back. She was a happy little camper, indeed.
Loosely hugging Legend's neck as not to choke him like she had tried to when he'd first picked her up, the four-year-old beamed when Legend began to run, her clasped hands tightening a little bit. Shifting to the side to see over his head and see Orlando, she kicked her flipflop clad feet in excitement. "Uncle Ornando!" Hayley squealed, happily trying to lean over and reach for him as she announced, "Auntie Kat and Uncle 'Eggen took me to the carnaval!" Had he really just told her to hurry up? Katie stared after Legend, eyebrows raising. Hadn't she told him earlier that they needed to come? Yes, yes in fact she had. He was the one who thought it wouldn't be necessary. And here they were, weaving their way through large crowds of people while trying to locate the ferris wheel - which was easier seen from afar than it was found, - as well as find the soon-to-be Seventh year Gryffindor boy- young man. Thankfully, Orlando was rather tall too, and Legend was leading the way anyway.
Deciding it best to ignore that comment and simply follow after Legend, Katie quickened her pace and kept close behind the pair, not allowing herself to be seperated. Finally, Legend came to a stop and greeted their friend before she had even spotted him. A small smile formed on her lips at the sight of her too-tall best friend, "Hey Lando," Katie greeted, moving from Legend's side to hug the boy. Though it was a little unnecessary since it hadn't been more than a few days or so since they'd last seen each other, Lando still got a hug. "What have I told you about this growing thing? I thought we agreed you'd stop that," she added rather seriously, though amusement shown on her face.
Stepping back as she released him, Katie let her gaze wander up and over to the ride for a moment, not even bothering to try to find the top of it before looking from Legend to Lando and back again. "That thing is a monster, you know that right? Better hope Hayley doesn't have a fear of heights." Katie wasn't sure if the child did. It wouldn't have been such a surprise, but Savannah had never mentioned it to her. And well, if she didn't have one already.. Hearing another close voice, Katie turned her attention to the carnie woman that had addressed them. Another glance was stolen at the two young men before she answered, "Four, actually." Or.. three and a half, however she wanted to look at it.
Making a quick headcount of the group of youngsters, Jean nodded. "Go 'head, lads an' ladies," She spoke, wondering whether or not her carny attire scared the youngest of the bunch. Maybe. Jean was used to people being scared of her, anyway, whether or not she was on the job. Gesturing with her wand, she pointed at the nearest empty basket.
Looking at others, some of them seemed to be dawdling around by themselves. "Step up, folks, step up!" Didn't these people want to make friends? Jean knew she wouldn't mind going on a ride in a group of strangers, but maybe it was different for customers with clique-centered mindsets and whatever else went through their heads.
