Frei didn't seem to get the point of such simple games, she nudged Fin forwards to do it for her.

Fin wasn't too interested in the games themselves either. So he waited around a little longer to see if one thing caught her eye more than the rest.

Yep. But of course it was the biggest prize there. A giant stuffed bright green jaguar.

Fin looked a little intimidated. Of course she wanted the best. But he sucked it up and gave it a try. And then another. But then he dug around in his pocket and his face fell. It looked like he had used up all his money.

Frei handed him a wad of money, looking like it was pocket change.

Fin glanced at it, suddenly feeling even smaller. After a long moment he took the wad and glanced through it. It was just about as much money as his entire life savings. His mood still seemed low, but he tried for the jaguar a few more times. He wasn't half bad, but he wasn't good enough for the grand prize. Fin gave up when he won one of the smaller prizes.

Frei tilted her head at the smaller prize before, thankfully, she hugged it and seemed content enough. She didn't take back to the rest of the money as she looked at another game.

Fin sighed inwardly as he followed Frei's eyes. He tried to hide his mood the best he could, trying to soak in as much fun as he could to turn the day around.

Frei was actually eying the skateboards, which were the grand prize in this one. No one was winning them though, this one was a skill game. There was a ladder, suspended over an inflatable cushion. The end of each ladder was attached to only one rope making balancing near impossible.

Fin watched someone try the game, but he didn't suggest either of them try it out.

After watching few people try and fail, Frei stepped right up, handed the man three dollars and then stared at the ladder.

Fin stood back as he held her stuft animal for Frei, not sure if he wanted to watch this or not.

Then, without further hesitation, Frei stepped forwards. Her first step was a little wobbly, she didn't crouch or try to crawl up the ladder. It looked like she was planning on walking up it. But after the first step she seemed to find her balance and she slowly walked up the entire thing. When she was at the top she grabbed the sky blue skateboard that matched Fin's eyes and then proceeded to walk back down the ladder.

Fin wasn't too surprised, but he was still amazed. Frei lived on a completely different plane of existence.

Frei walked right up to Fin and held out the skateboard.

Fin blinked at it, confused. After a pause he pointed at himself, trying to make sure she didn't just want him to hold it.
