"Thank you, Grizz! I like your mask, too." It does seem to suit him perfectly, and she giggles in an echo to his own laugh when the bells jingle again. Somehow in his company, she's already forgetting about her troubles and having a fun time. Even Caspar seems to lighten up a little, appreciating the way Adia's eyes brighten behind the mask. It's been a while since he's seen her like this outside of Atlantis.

Ice Bear's protest earn an amused snort from Caspar. "I know how you feel," he says, once the polar bear has selected essentially a mask of his own face. "And you're really the younger brother? I wouldn't have guessed it."

Adia's instinct is to head to the food first, as it's easier to avoid small talk while eating, and she likes to look for little portable treats that she can bring back home to her friends. But this is Grizz's first time in the Nexus, and she wants him to enjoy himself, so perhaps entertainment first is the way to go. "Let's go to the puppet show first. On our way, we can see what else the festival has to offer."
