Sprinkles smiled thankfully at Bel. He was, admittedly, nervous about trying marijuana for the first time, and listening to her helped relax him. And, while embarrassing, he did like how close she was to him. It had been a while since someone held his arm like this.

Then he smelled the smoke. Sprinkles couldn't resist wrinkling his nose and grimacing. How could anyone just inhale that? Bel didn't seem to mind though, and that was where they looked to be heading. Sprinkles quickly regained his composure and attempted to ignore the smell.

"Thank you. It's natural, and it's much longer too. I keep the longer parts wrapped into a bow so it's easier to manage... While we're on the topic of exchanging compliments, I think you have beautiful eyes. I always found green and blue eyes beautiful. They're very different to me."

"That's amazing and I'm slightly envious actually," Bel admitted as she stopped for a moment as she gently picked up one of Sprinkles tresses and inspected it, running her fingers through the lock, caressing it sort of. It was so soft, she noticed, impressed now. She had suspected that it might be real, many inhabitants of the island had natural hair colours that would have been considered unnatural in the Narrow Reality.

"Thanks," Bel said, flashing Sprinkles a very genuine smile, "They used to just be a light blue, but over time they have become blue-green... I think, channeling Beltane might be the reason, but I'm not sure ..." she admitted with a shrug.

"Come," she said hooking her arm through Sprinkles's again, "Mary Jane has been spotted," she joked as she saw that the guys in question were handing out blunts to people that asked for them.

Letting Sprinkles go for a moment, Bel walked over to the guys, had a short chat, joked about a few things and returned a few minutes later with a rolled up cigarette and a matchbook.

"Lady Jane has been acquired," she told them with a playful wink when she returned. "Wanna go sit somewhere for a bit?" Bel asked them as she gave a polite nod to a demon, who was also getting a joint.

A purr escaped Sprinkles as Bel played with his hair. How long had it been since he was pet? This felt great, but all good things had to come to an end. Bel had stopped, and Sprinkles was forced to realize that his purring may have been weird. If he pretended it never happened, Bell might too.

Now came the time Sprinkles was afraid of: Bel found weed and came back with a cigarette. Her playful attitude towards it made the situation less scary, but Sprinkles felt sure his fears weren't unfounded.

"Sounds good. I saw a private spot when I first came in. You can still hear the music and see the party, it's just not crowded. And, no offense to Lady Jane, I don't want to bother anyone with her smell." Sprinkles gave a playful wink back to Bel, then led her to the spot outside.

Teenagers mingled about in their own small groups, some playing music from their phones to drown out the loud music from the house. It was private enough, with some chairs scattered about that Sprinkles and Bel could sit on. Sprinkles tried to stay in view of the partygoers while going off to sit as far away from them as possible.

Bel had not actually noticed Sprinkles's purr mainly because there was just too much background noise and music around them. Although if she had heard it, she would have been totally okay with it, even finding it endearing.

"No offense taken, Lady Jane is quite stinky," Bel admitted wrinkling her nose. She also was not a huge fan of how it smelled either. Hopefully, it either tasted better or worked better than it smelled.

Following Sprinkles outside, Bel dragged a chair over to where he was sitting and sat down next to him. Then she opened the matchbook and lighted the rolled cigarette the same way that the others around her had.

Taking a puff, Bel inhaled too quickly and started coughing almost immediately, tears filling her eyes as she blinked them back quickly, she then passed the blunt to Sprinkles. "Don't inhale too quickly," she croaked, slightly embarrassed that she had just made a fool of herself.

Sprinkles decided to stay standing up. He was too antsy to stay still. Bel's inexperience at smoking only solidified his stance. Choking looked more painful while sitting.

"I thought you knew how to do this. Aw, man, I was hoping for some pointers." He fidgeted a bit with his sleeves, then took the blunt. Waiting wouldn't do anything. He just needed to go for it.

He took a slow, light inhale, this time trying to be much slower than Bel. Then he let it out. Alright, this wasn't so bad. The smell was still awful, but it wasn't nearly as bad as he thought it might be.

"Looks like I'm a natural, " he said with a laugh. "Too bad I can't say I'm a professional. So... how long does it take for the 'high' to settle in?"

Watching Sprinkles as Bel dabbed the water from her eyes with a kleenex, she grinned when he was able to inhale without choking, actually quite proud of them that they had managed to take a hit like they had.

"A few minutes, maybe five, six," Bel said as she tried taking a hit again, this time inhaling slowlier, the smoke filling her lungs as she then held it for a moment and then breathed it out.

"Oh my..." Bel stated the first effects hitting her within a few seconds as she looked at Sprinkles, handing him back the blunt.

"That doesn't sound too bad." Sprinkles' internal timer began counting down. He wanted to be fully prepared for whatever came at him. "If weed is supposed to make you feel relaxed, why do people use it at parties? I thought people would want to be... you know... active. Are there other effects I'm missing out on?"

He took another puff, then handed it back to Bel. Sprinkles wondered if he was feeling the effects already and hadn't noticed yet. He didn't feel particularly relaxed. Really, he felt stressed. Stressed and tired.

Is this safe? What if I get in trouble? Would I get made fun of if I backed out now?

"Hmm, weed does make you feel relaxed," Bel said as she crossed her legs, starting to notice the slightly different perceptions in reality, "but it's sort like a mental relaxation," she explained as she looked up at Sprinkles and noticed that their hair was seemingly a brighter shade of pink than earlier.

"Weed also enhances and makes things like music seem nicer, or jokes funnier," she mused, "oh, and supposedly, you feel hungrier... " she said as she looked up and thought the stars seemed a bit brighter now.

"I don't feel relaxed. I feel heavy." Sprinkles got himself comfortable on a chair. "And I wish you told me earlier. If I knew we would feel hungry, I would've grabbed a bunch of snacks before coming out here." He leaned back and followed Bel's eyes up to the stars.

"Make sure I don't feel asleep, by the way. I don't want to get too relaxed... But, uh, while we wait, let's chat. You mentioned something about Bel...tane, earlier, right?"

"Snacks, hmm, yes,...maybe we can get something to eat later," Bel agreed as she turned her head slightly as Sprinkles sat down in the chair.

"Don't worry, I won't let you sleep," Bel promised as she held out a hand to Sprinkles as she resumed her star watching, noticing how the stars really twinkled now.

Hearing his question, Bel nodded to herself, "Beltane... Bel," she said, "She's, ah, a Celtic goddess who likes to reincarnates herself, and I was chosen to be her vessel this time round," she explained as she looked over at Sprinkles, feeling very relaxed now.

"I'm the goddess of love, did you know that?" she stated with a goofy smile.

"Bring me your heart and I can bestow on you love." she exclaimed dramatically, waving her hand in a courtly fashion in the air.
