Idk, depends on how loud Raez said it
Offline
Loudly enough for her to hear, then. He's not really a whispery guy, unless it's for dramatic effect.
Offline
Then yep. Her face definitely soured. Though her resting face already seems angry, and she's always kinda grumpy so I guess it doesn't make to much of a difference.

"Nah, nah. Let's go to the first rollercoaster already! Why are we delaying the fun!"
Dilanne placed her hands on her hips and grinned, staring directly at Aurora as if telling her to liven up.
Offline
Aurora looks over to Dilanne before giving a "Hm." before turning back and continuing walking to towards their destination?
((A brief timeskip? Or do you guys want to have some dialogue or for me to describe the park a bit?))
Offline
(Yeah, let's just...have more dialogue to make sure Aurora is at her absolute worst mood when they finally get to the roller coaster xDDDDD)
(Tbh more descriptions would be nice, though I'm not sure if that goes with the timeskip or non-timeskip option...? Any one is fine with me tbh, I'm just inclined towards descriptions from you lol)
Offline
((I can't tell if the first sentence is sarcasm or not xD. I don't mind either option, but idk I don't think Aurora is a big talker lol.))
((Yes description please, descriptions always good :D and it can go with timeskip or normal walk Ig.))

((Oop soory for no posting))
Well, as they walked towards their next destination, they were primarily following a well-paved, smooth concrete path, to the side of the path now and then were some small, pushable cart stands, selling common theme park snacks, like kettle corn and cotton candy. Occasionally they crossed by an amphitheater or a ride that they had decided to bypass or explore later, with the Exteriors walls of the amphitheaters shielding the set of the play painted to be the same colors associated with water. The rides that they passed were the same, however, sometimes they have different colors to be in line more with their theme (Like one ride based on water rescue being bright orange).
As they continued on their path, it would be easy to notice there were plants dotted to the very sides of the path, usually being bushes.
However, of course, this would've been a good description if the place was still in commission.
Now, the concrete pathway is cracked and has missing pieces, creating potholes here and there. The stands would have shattered glass, a missing or flattened tire. If there was any food within the cart or hanging off from it in bags, like cotton candy or kettle corn, it would certainly not be good anymore. The paint or coating on the surrounding attractions has peeled away and dulled as well. Once-vibrant blues turning into old and flakey light blue-ish greys. Sea greens turning into a duller version of themselves. The rides that they could see seemed worn and dysfunctional, of course.
As they started to near their destination, The Sail of the Swordfish, they could clearly see it up in the sky. It was a large rollercoaster, no kidding Probably around 150 feet/46 meters tall. They could probably see it not that long after they started to walk in its direction. It won't be long until they get there.

(Same lol, sorry, I had the tab open at one point and then my computer crashed, so I forgot that I didn't respond.)
On their way to the ride, for some reason, Raez decides to start pushing one of the stands. There's not much on it, to be honest--and maybe that's the point. It would be dangerous for it to have glass or something on it. But it seemed to once be a stand that sold meat of some kind, because that meaty smell wafts off of it once in a while. Anyways, the stand by itself actually seems quite heavy despite its smaller size in comparison to many other stands, but it's not like Raez isn't used to manual labor. He pushes it along cheerily and without much effort, smiling whenever it hits a dip or bump in the road.
Offline
While walking, Aurora turned back on her heels to face Raez while walking backward, "Why?" She simply asked, raising her arms in question.
Offline
Raez clearly makes an effort to slow down so that he doesn't accidentally run over her toes or something. In the meantime, however, he maintains his kinda stupid smile. "Why what?" he asks cluelessly.
Offline
"Why are you pushing that cart around?" She motions to the stand, "It smells too."
Offline
"Right. 'Cause it smells nice," he explains.
Offline
"No. As in it stinks."
Offline
"Ah, that's not nice," Raez laments. Yes, laments. "Consider: This gorgeous cart came out today, put on its makeup for once, dressed up nicely, all in hopes that someone would notice it. And now..." He takes a hand off the cart momentarily to gesture vaguely. "This! Someone says that 'it stinks'! Or, alternatively, it was just here, wishing to live its best life in this now desolate wasteland. I am though a stranger but bringing it along for a stroll, and another stranger comments rudely upon its scent!"
Offline
"What? If nobody tells the cart it stinks, then It will just go around smelling wherever it goes!" Aurora points out.

(Hey Time, sorry, but can you check the post for typos? I feel like you might've made one because that post is reading real weirdly to me atm, and I don't want to respond incorrectly)

"I'll be a second rude stranger here!" Dilanne said too cheerfully. "That cart's actually quite ugly, not just stinkyyyy. Poor thing. It needs a bath and some makeup."
Offline
Raez just gives Dilanne a look that's simultaneously pointed and disappointed.
Offline
"What? I'm just saying the truth. Right, Aurora?"
Offline
"Her affirmation doesn't make it the truth, especially considering how you two are, in fact, very biased against carts," Raez sighs.
Offline
"How can you tell that we're biased? You could be the one biased towards carts."
Offline
"Hmm, well, for you personally, your attitude is a pretty good indicator of it." Raez is now taking a more realistic approach. "There's not really much reason to denigrate the cart at all, yet you do it anyways. This course of action is paralleled by former ones, observed in the very near past, of course. Furthermore, if there is a reason, then there would be more suitable actions to merit discussion. As for my side, well, there's--as in was--not much reason for me to perceive it one way or another, so why would I harbor biases? Really, dismissing how I have no say in your personal opinions, this cart has no unpleasant smell to it and its condition is very well within logic. It's a nice cart," he concludes, his slightly more stern expression signaling that he doesn't really want to hear more bashing of the cart.
Really, though, the cart doesn't smell bad at all. The meaty smell isn't a rotten one. It's just normal.

Aurora looked like she was starting to daydream after a few moments Raez started talking.
Offline
"Seems like someone's not just a rude stranger," Raez says with a smile.
Offline
"Huh? Wha?" Aurora snaps out of her daydream and looks back to Raez
