Quin was honestly stunned at the answer he was given...otherworldly beings from beyond the sky! It was amazing to think about, he has yet to even begin exploring the world, and yet, there's so much more out there that he was just completely stunned. He supposed that the Saiyan's human looks must be rather convenient for them. Though the info on Saiyan pregnancy was rather...unneccesary. Quin felt awkward when talk about that particular subject began. He looked at Skylar and Adara sweatdropping upon noticing that Adara had apparently blanked out during the conversation. It seems the green haired man has a rather tragic past. None of his business though all things considered, at least Tadeo actually has the option of actually going to the afterlife...anytime he's tried to suicide he just respawns perfectly okay where he dies at. Ah, the fate of an undead is a harsh one...it's even worse as he can still remember the pain from his first death not that he actually remembers most of the details from it.
When Adara asked where the sign up is for the contest... "so thou art one of my rivals in tis competition, tis will be interesting no?" he looked at Tadeo as if asking the same question as Adara about the location of the sign up for the competition is.
Meanwhile at the sign-up booth was a large 7' 5" figure in Samurai looking armor, the Man had a Katana in a sheath and was currently writing the name of the cosplay and his own name in the sign-up paper before handing it to the receptionist. Once the Receptionist was satisfied he let the man through.

"War never changes. Only the instruments of war and the people who play in it."
"What is my true name? What Destiny awaits one such as I out here, outside of Lordroth?" Quin
"You can tear me down all you want, I will Never give you the satisfaction of my Death! I am ASPARA! FEEL MY FLAMES AND BURN!" Aspara
"I need time to think." Sonnelion
"Orkses neva lose if we run we'll jus' come back fer more! If we die it don' count!" Barrigan
Skylar's mouth was drawn in a very straight line as Tadeo mentioned certain things about sayain women that she certainly didn't know about and certainly didn't NEED to know about and she sweatdropped along with Quin when Adara mentioned how she'd completely blanked out. But, she did manage to smile when Adara eventually asked for directions. See, before Skylar practically had x-ray vision with her Dragon Sight technique... HOWEVER, Sky realized not long after her escape from the underground lab she awoke in that she'd apparently lost that ability... which was kind of sad because she'd love to have it at that particular moment to see through the crowds. Of course she was fine with following Tadeo and Christel which she assumed were leading them to the sign up booth but she would have definitely appreciated being able to tell where it was herself. That's when the crowds were all ay once perfectly spaced out enough for Sky to see their destination for a second before it became a jumbled mess.
Ahead of the now large party about half a dozen meters was a brightly colored booth next to a set of metal stairs that led up to the giant stage Skylar assumed that the contest would be presented from and where she heard the announcer from earlier. Many people seemed to be in a line leading from backstage a few even standing on the top of the stairs from the lack of appearent room. They of course were all in mostly well made costumes... though if she squinted Skylar swore she saw a guy in a inflatable t-rex.
A crowd gathered in front of the stage. Skylar had a feeling that Christle wasn't going to enter as she wasn't in costume anyhow so when she heard her and Tadeo's conversation die down (assuming here she also answers Adara's question) Sky tapped her shoulder asking,
"So hey, like you're not entering right? So once we drop off my pals at the booth do you wanna go find a good spot to watch them all from Christel? Your name IS Christel right?" Seemingly pretty much completely ignoring Tadeo, his name and his tragic anecdote.

Tadeo saw the stand up ahead. His shoulders sulked as he continued onward, Christel close behind. She saw him sulk and giggled, jabbing him in the rib. "Hey, if ya do this for me, I'll treat you to something later today, or this week. How's that sound?" "Really, whatever you do, I don't think the embarrassment from this will ever die down. You want me to show my face to them." "They'll barely remember it once you go Super, though. They'll be too busy wondering how you did that with your hair and eyes, and the 'graphics' of Ki flowing around you." "I doubt it'll get me first, though, so don't get your hopes up."
Christel heard one of the girls calling out behind her. It was the girl dressed as a vampire. She turned her head and smiled. "Yeah, we're heading there right now. Just follow us." Not realizing the wolf girl was right behind them, Christel and Tadeo jumped, afraid she might've heard them. However, she questioned Christel, but didn't bring it up, nor did anything on her face suggest she heard it. The couple relaxed a bit and exchanged relieved glances. "Um, yeah, that's my name. And no, I'm not competing in the contest, just Tadeo here, so I'd be happy to come along with you." A little time passed, and Tadeo realized something again, turned around and had to ask the wolf girl. "Wait, so why are you in costume if you're not competing in this contest?" Christel felt as if she needed to object, but very quickly realized it was actually a good question. She kept walking forward, listening in on them if they continued to talk.
Soon, Tadeo and Christel and the others would reach the booth. Getting to the front, Christel would sign Tadeo up, gesturing to him when the man there asked who'd be competing. He examined him, and nodded, letting Christel fill out the rest of the paper work. Tadeo had his arms crossed and hung back while Christel did that, looking around to see everyone else's costumes. There were lots of people there, surprisingly, competing. Tadeo still didn't get it, however. Why would someone actually try and compete in these things? What's the point? What's to gain out of this?
"I swear, I'm gonna eat your entire race." - Tadeo
"Tycho is no longer Tycho. Tycho is now little girl. Yes!" - Majin Tycho
"Stupid scouter, coming off my face like that! Where the fuck is it!? There it fucking is! Hah!" - Sarai
Ada Bitch Power Level: 2,000 (Unable to be sensed) Current NPCs/Minions: N/A Current Effects: Unkillable, Elementalist, and Untouchable Word Count: N/A Character Count: N/A Text Colors: Ada Bitch
Already signed up at the anime convention to be within the costume contest was a young woman, barely past her teens, standing off to the side of the booth, watching the line go by with their various costumes, before something familiar caught her senses. A man walking up to the booth dressed as the acclaimed 'Great' Saiyaman and his apparent friend, whom would sign for him. This certain person caught he woman's eyes, who would waltz over behind the couple silently, remembering how she was unable to be noticed unless looked at, she would rush to the side of the man with a smirk on her face, bending over to look over at him from the side, getting a good look at his face. Or, at least, would have if it weren't for the positioning, before she would fall over onto the ground
"Owwwww" She would say, getting up slowly and dusting off her low white and ice blue dress. It was fluffy and outdated, something you would see on someone in a victorian ball room, though with a short cut skirt with fluff. The chest piece was low cut, looking more like a pulled down dress shirt, covering her bust, but exposing the large black tattoo pulsating on her torso. Her short white hair being fixed before turning around to try and be face to face with the man, hands to her hips, looking up at him due to the obvious height difference, her short standing making her look barely older than a kid. "Hi there, you actually look pretty good in your costume. Not many people call pull of the whole 'Great Saiyaman' look. Though, to be entirely fair, almost every one of them has never seen a saiyan in their life. Though judging from what I can sense from you, you have seen a saiyan or two in your life?" Ada would question, looking him up and down with curiosity. No matter how much someone tries to hide it, when you are a warrior, you look like one. Every soldier has the body and feeling to expose who they truly are.
"Oh my, I completely forgot. I must introduce myself" She stopped, completely forgetting that she must tell the person who she was. She placed a hand to her tattoo, and another to the side, bowing to the man, before rising up and speaking with a much different and more royal voice.
"I am Ada Bitch, Princess of Babylon. Funny enough, that is who I am 'dressing up' as. Hehehe" She would giggle at the end, obviously knowing she didn't look much like the famous demon Edgy, besides the features that followed in the family, like her white hair and deep blue-gold eyes. When she transformed, it would be more apparent to the nerds out there. but she could definitely try her hardest. Any nerd who watches the news would know the 'beautiful' demon party's leader, which made her costume even more fun to use.
Adara listened once more and sighed in relief when the female with tadeo said there were heading to were you signed up. "Alight let's go" With that, adara followed them, a little nervous and excited at the same time. She let tadeo be signed up before then filling in the stuff as well, once she was down she looked to Quin and Skylar. "Well im done and ready. Wish me luck hey?" She smiled a little, she still wasn't quite used to talking to strangers but hey, they seemed nice.
Quin noticed Ada as they approached the stand. So apparently a Princess was around...tis be interesting. He assumes that 'Babylon' is a kingdom of sorts. He decided to let Skylar and Tadeo's spouse 'hang out' as it were. He looked to Adara "Hath confidence in thyself my new friend, for luck is surely at our side tis day." he stated with a short chuckle. He looked at Ada and approached her. "I am Sir Quin of Astora, tis day shalt be most interesting hmm?" he asked and introduced himself still sticking to the fictional country he came up with. He is after all from Lordroth in reality so, this would surely work for interesting fictional stories yes?
After the introduction, they finally make it to the stand. A man with black hair looked at them and saw their costumes. "And here I thought the Samurai cosplay I saw just moments ago was amazing, Man, it looks like its gonna be a tough competition this year for him, not to mention just amazing." He commented looking at their costumes with stars in his eyes, though he did ogle the females of the group a little bit much...yeah that should say enough about this guy's character, luckily he restrains himself to just looking, he was also wearing sunglasses. He shook himself from that phase and passed them papers. "Simply sign what you're cosplaying as, and you are good to go Ladies and Gents..." He also gave them the writing utensils. "Just be sure to give the Pens back okay, don't want to lose more like we did last year..." the man was mumbling about annoying teenagers.
Meanwhile in the backstage sitting in a chair was the same Samurai as before, he could sense the unusually high power levels entering, but he shrugged it off as just some high-level martial artists deciding to have fun and enjoy life like he's doing.

Skylar blinked at Tadeo's question. Plenty of people came that weren't going to enter, but it's not as if she were really in constume. In her honest opinion if ANYONE of their party actually deserved to win, it'd be Adara because she was the only one out of them that actually came dressed as an anime character and planned in advance to come to the convention even if she wasn't originally going to enter.
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... it's not a costume." She said with a wink then walked ahead to Adara and Quin who were currently signing up for the contest. She glared at the attendant at the booth when he started to look a little TOO fondly at the women dressed up. Sky swore, all older men were perverts weren't they? Then she realized something... Quim was like a thousand years old...did that mean he was- her train of thought stopped there as Quin wished Adara good luck. Skylar gave her a pat on the back.
"Hey, even if you don't get first prize be proud at the fact that you tried ya know? I for one am rooting for ya! You're costume is far more original than all those idiots dressed as Hercule Satan! Good luck!" Sky smiled waving Quin and Adara off though she did stop Quin briefly to say, "Please win something, it doesn't have to be first place but I want foooooooood. Good luck!"
Suddenly Skylar heard a girl talking to Christel and Tadeo... or more like just specifically to the green haired saiyan. She looked around for a second... where did that girl come from? It was almost as if she popped into existence right there and then. Sky didn't know why but she felt a chill down her spine when the girl called herself the princess of Babylon. Skylar didn't know what it was but like any animal in the presence of a supernatural being, she got antsy and her ears tipped forward threatningly. She gulped and walked over.
"Hey," she said shaken, "So um... Christel wanna go sit down, everyone's in line now and the contest is going to start soon. Don't wanna miss any of the action."
In all honesty, she just wanted to have a reason to get away from Ada. And, while Tadeo could probably protect himself, she wasn't so sure about Christel. This girl was something else... she couldn't even be sensed... it was... unusual, to say the least. She made eye contact with Ada then walked away-hopefully with Christel in tow.

After hearing the wolf girl say that her appearance wasn't a costume, albeit, she did so very quietly and winked at him after saying so, skipping off so giddily and such, Tadeo sighed in relief. He chuckled and spoke to no one in particular. "Oh, that's a relief. I almost thought you were...wait a minute. What'd you say?" After Tadeo's pause, he realized what the wolf girl said, and he looked up to her skipping away in confusion. Keeping all that in mind, Tadeo continued onward, walking right next to Christel. They'd reach the concession stand, and Christel would walk up to sign Tadeo up for it.
After signing her significant other up for the contest, Christel backed up and stood next to Tadeo, watching the others sign up and go up. She waved to the vampire girl as she walked away to the contest, and she waved with a smile on her face. Tadeo didn't do anything. He was contemplating how long it would take to end his own life if he wanted to. I mean, I could charge up a Lucero to the max and lower my Ki. Nah, that'd give Christel too much time to react. I could use a Firestorm and just suicide with that, but that'll catch too many innocents in the blast radius. Ooo! I can fly straight to space and let myself stay there 'til I die. It's gonna take a while to get up there though. Unless... "Don't you dare try and use a gate to get outta here." "Get outta my head." "Nope, it's fun in there." "There's a sexual innuendo in there somewhere." "Find it and I'll sleep without my underwear for a week." "A month." "Deal." Smirking Tadeo laughed in triumphant joy.
Suddenly, while Tadeo laughed, he felt a thump come from right next to him, and heard a thud as something, or someone, hit the ground. He heard a small voice afterwards, which only confirmed his suspicion. He looked down next to him and saw some kinda girl. She was dressed in outrageous frills and an outstanding ball room dress. She looked sophisticated, despite her clumsy entry into Tadeo's view. Which reminded the Saiyan of something: how'd she get there and how long was she there for. As she stood up, Tadeo looked around to see where she came from. The scary part about it, was that she didn't have a power reading; or at least, the green haired Saiyan couldn't get a read on her power. It was weird, and Christel noticed the same. Every human had a power reading, even if it was as small as 1 or 0.5. However, this girl here had none. Tadeo kept on guard with this girl. She could be as strong or stronger than him and he wouldn't notice it.
To his surprise, the girl mentioned something about Tadeo seeing a few Saiyans in his life. This triggered Tadeo, and he knew she wasn't just an ordinary human (might not even be a human in the first place) if she knew what Saiyans were. Sizing her up as she did him, the Saiyan watched her give her introduction. Studiously, Tadeo looked her over, noticing her tattoo on her chest. Have I seen that somewhere before? Crouching down to Ada's level, Tadeo kept his helmet on, but kept repeating her name all over and over again in his head. Ada Bitch. Ada Bitch. Ada Bitch? "Something about you reminds me of someone I know." Her appearance, indeed, strung a few chords in Tadeo's memory. He'd met many outrageous people in the past, it would be no wonder if he forgot one or two of them. Looking at her face with his hand on his chin, Tadeo raised his head up, almost like a dog lifted his head and ears. He whispered a name, softly enough for Christel not to hear it, but just loud enough for Ada. "Edgy. Edgy Bitch?"
Christel was interrupted by the wolf girl. She'd asked her if they could go away from the place, despite Tadeo being so familiar with this girl. She sensed something was up, since Tadeo somehow recognized her, but it must've been all right. Christel shrugged it off and nodded for the wolf girl. "Um, sure. I don't mind. By the way, what's you're name?" As Christel and the wolf girl walked away, their aim to find seats, Christel looked back to Tadeo to say farewell, for now. "See ya, Tadeo. Good luck, and don't make me disappointed!" Of course, Tadeo had to retort. "Always about you being disappointed and never if I'm disappointed, huh?"
"I swear, I'm gonna eat your entire race." - Tadeo
"Tycho is no longer Tycho. Tycho is now little girl. Yes!" - Majin Tycho
"Stupid scouter, coming off my face like that! Where the fuck is it!? There it fucking is! Hah!" - Sarai
When the wolf girl become visibly frightened, Ada focusing on the ears, she quickly knew that the ears were not faux. She must be some sort of beastman, or something of the like. She could sense the supernatural feel coming from Ada, she knew this from the cats and dogs she passed by that all hissed and ran from her, there was no doubt about it. Finally, someone recognized her in her fullest!
She would look towards Quin, listening to his announcement of his home country, and curtsied her skirt towards him. She had never heard of his land, intrigued on how kingdoms still existed among the humans. "It is interesting indeed. And it is nice to meet you Sir Quin of Astora. I can tell from your accent you are not from here, am I right? Possibly not even this time. I am quite young myself, but I remember hearing your dialect in a genetic memory. You are a treasure of time itself I see." She commented, before looking at Tadeo.
Edgy! Ah, poor poor Edgy. So you know her don't you." Ada said, thinking of Edgy with a deep and hate filled passion. She disliked her so much, for so many reasons, but he did not ask that. He simply mentioned her name. He deserved an answer, that was for sure. So she decided she would provide. "Yeah, the last name sort of implies relations. That would be true, because I am her daughter, and she my mother. Since she is a Queen, I am technically a princess. Even if She hates me so much. But the feeling is vice versa!"
She would giggle, offering to walk with Tadeo. "Other than the name, you probably recognized the hair and tattoo. My mother also was a blonde, though mine is much lighter due to Marie Antoinette Syndrome sadly, and this marking on my chest is my mother's form of a joke. It is a talisman, a sort of binding of an ancient creature into my chest. She thought that the best way to deal with me was to brand me with a mark that hides my true self. I am half-demon after all, so it only makes sense that my supernatural presence should be visible." Ada went on and on, before noticing she went off topic.
"Ah, but anyway, I am actually planning to present myself as my mother when she was a mere princess. She wore a dress similar to what I will present on stage. Do you wish to see beforehand? I promise it isn't to revealing. I wouldn't want to anger your significant other." She stated the last bit, trying her hardest not to sound like she was mocking Christal. She was interested in how her mother interacted with other people. including this built man here. If she knew him, then she must know him too.
Adara listened to everyone, most of all Sklar who was giving her words of encouragement, she kinda a blushed a little before she made it do. "Heh. Well um, thanks. I'll do my best. Well, good thing i know my character well."Adara then went to go where she was ment to before saying one final thing, "Oh and by the way, If i'm a dog, your dog food" Adara then winced and giggled a little knowing it was a quote from her character before looking to Quin. "Come on you, lets go"
