The girl made her way through the stalls, glancing quickly over each one before... THERE. One had caught her eye. Grinning, she slipped around the crowd of people over to the displays of winged-horses.
Oh, weren't they beautiful?
And just far enough away too. As a child, she hadn't liked horses much. She thought they were big and menacing looking things, and they tended to attract flies. Not to mention that the one time her mother tried to take her horseback riding the horse bucked her off its back and threw her to the ground, breaking her right arm in the process. But as she got older, she found that she did like to watch them from afar. And then the wings added a certain amount of desirability as well... most likely because they reminded her of butterflies. Though butterfly wings were much more beautiful and incredibly delicate. Still...
Ariel gave a sigh as she watched over the gate. They were nice, but she wouldn't care to get any closer than this.
Animals. Stan liked animals. And the petting zoo kind of made his trip to the fesitival not a complete waste of time. Although the place was a little too crowded for his liking..
He wandered about for a while, admiring the various magical creatures on display before he spotted the winged-horses. Oh..wow. They looked so magestic. He stood near the gate and stared at them in awe.
"They're beautiful, aren't they?" He remarked softly to the girl standing next to him.
... And, look. They could feed the creatures too!
