Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dark fingers curled around Vaith's hand and gave a squeeze, then withdrew to execute a rather amazing bro-shake. Sharp teeth baring in wide grin as he and the other boil made their introductions. The moment of bonding lasted only a sad second or two before shattering at the arrival of Lizzy. Oh he liked the ghoul, she was very nice and Junko adored her, but with her came the news of a double date he hadn't yet been informed of, and then the dawning realization that they were not in fact still in Halloween. Nope, this was the human world, and Seiji jadn't been the wiser. Well Jack ******** damnit.

".. Wait, you've been to the human world before?" How.. When? What? He stared at the ghoul for a moment or two in disbelief before rolling dark eyes up to regard the rest of his team. From the looks of it he wasn't the only one that'd never payed the mortal realm a visit.

Mai's confession had the other ghost frowning thoughtfully, though he hitched a smile back on gray lips before responding to her. "You didn't miss anything worth seeing, I assure you." There were few among the student body that would claim to have had a good time on that damn island.

And then something happened so singularly horrifying the jikininki was left wide eyed and embarrassed. What had been a moment of male bonding between the boils was taken and twisted by Lizzy and his ghoulfriend into something ghoulish and silly. The bro-shake, it was ruined. RUINED! He stared on in despair at the two ghouls as they wiggled their fingers at each other, lip twitching, before finally planting his face firmly into his palm.

They had taken something cool, humiliated it, then taken it out back and shot it in the head. The bro-shake was dead. Forever dead. How could you?!

Team Awesome

“Once again, you are too modest!” Hel chuckled, and looked over at Team Mafia as well when the Baku gestured over to them. Oh…she recognized Amrita over there! “No, no, they are lucky to have you as well.” The reaper whole heartedly insisted, “A good army is not always made up of just fighters. There are other roles that need to be filled as well.” Hel blinked when Xiu took her hand, and placed her other one over the ghoul’s as well, returning the squeeze before releasing her. “Understood! You take care as well, Xiu.” She watched the Baku pad off for a moment before her gaze swept around her group once more, and waved a hand at Mitsu regarding her statement. “Acceptable!” In regards to Mot’s statement, the valkyrie looked towards the sky once more, thoughtful before looking over at Riyo.

The ghoul’s background emotions, ranging from pleased to disappointed had not escaped her attention. The valkyrie marched right on over to the ghoul, and slung an arm around her shoulder, pulling her down a bit closer to her level. “You’re rather quiet right now, friend. Care to…let anything spill while we’re waiting?” Here Hel grinned, raising a brow at her.

Team Let's Be Good Friends Awesome

“I just thought maybe there was something you’d…like to get off of your chest, maybe?” Hel questioned. “You seemed…rather pleased earlier for some reason, and then looked terribly disappointed.” The reaper hugged the ghoul closer to her, grinning. When a Brynhildr was frustrated and the source of the problem was out of reach, she often turned to another target to soothe the feeling for now. Riyo was that lucky.

“Ah, but Riyo, my hands are not on you!” Now the ghoul was just being a smart a** as she waggled her fingers at the demoness, still keeping her close with the use of her arm.

Team TBA










Simone had been just about to send Night a text of her own, finding it difficult to maneuver though the throng of students while trying to look over their hands, standing on her tip toes, when she heard him return her call. Oh! So he was closer than she had thought! "Night!" She called brightly as she finally spotted him, squeezing between a couple of students who hadn't noticed her trying to get through them. "Excuse me, please," She said in a tone that was more aggravated than polite, but flashed them a bit of a smile when they looked at her. Without another word to the pair, she sashayed her way over to her boilfriend and the other ghoul.

The demoness chuckled at the blush that Night gave at simply seeing her. Oh, how did she enjoy getting him to do that. She raised her brows slightly and smiled at the introduction to Sarias, her lips pursing ever so slightly. "Hey, there, Sarias. It's a pleasure to meet you," She said as she reached out a hand to casually brush along her forearm. Then looking to Night she grinned as his hand brushed along her hip. "And you're looking quite strapping, yourself." She practically purred as she slid her fingers along the strap about his chest.

"Aren't these outfits the best? I think they're just great." She poked out a hip and raised a hand, fingers spread. "I mean, just listen to this!" The ghoul brought her hand down to smack against her latex covered rear. To her, the resulting sound was most satisfying! She laughed and straightened herself again, her tail swishing behind her almost impishly. "I'm excited to go. How about you," She asked to the two Ghosts. She paused and blinked, looking around. "I take Belladonna and Onibi haven't made the scene yet. Or did they go get those pills that I heard mention of?"

Team I sense bad times a comin Awesome

Hel and Mot's reply gave Mitsu a sense of relief. At least things had eased off for the time being. That was good to know. "Y..yeah it is." Mitsu replied to Mot looking out over the treeline and up at the brightly colored sky. "It's so different. What do you think its like out there?" Despite her nervousness Mitsu did have a curious streak. She wanted to know and learn. What was it like? What were human's like? Would they see one while they were here?

All those questions came to a halt though as that familiar sense of tension filled the air again.



What was happening now?

Team I'll Slap Your s**t Awesome

As Hel's grip grew tighter, Riyo's eyes grew more...

Rabid...

Hel had chosen the wrong ghoul to play semantics with. "Yeah? Your hands aren't on me?" The ghoul's head tilted to the side, red orbs blazing with a low glow. Her slitted pupils now kept a sharp focus on Hel. With gritted teeth, one of the feline's clawed hands balled into a tight fist and wordlessly, aimed to hit the valkyrie square in the face. Riyo was apparently not playing around when she said she didn't want to be touched.

The Trendzetters

Ebenezer blinked a few times, attempting to keep up. He'd been very fortunate, surprisingly, in his choice. The student he'd approached was not only a member of his group, but the other two appeared as well. He stared at them awkwardly for a moment, memorizing their faces so he could recognize them in a crowd. He figured that would be important.

With a sigh, Eben returned the greetings of the other three and listened to their conversation. The debate seemed to focus on their pumpkin pills and who was going to carry them. Knowing that he had extra room in his bag, Eben sighed again before speaking.

"Uh, I suppose I could carry them," he offered, surprised by his own audacity. "Though chances are rather good that if something happens to us, I'll be the first to go." The depressed poet's pessimism was certainly not reassuring. He attempted a smile.

"I do have room in my bag," he added with a non-committal shrug. "Though I think that Isfrafel's idea of dividing them might be a better idea."

The contents of his leather bag consisted mostly of a small writing book, a handful of his best pens, several containers of different colored inks, and basic supplies he wouldn't want to live without, such as soap, a small first-aid kit, and a book of morbid poetry.

Eben forced himself to think of positive things. For one, he had always been curious about the human world. If nothing else, the storied he'd heard were interesting. And it looked as though he'd been somewhat fortunate with his group members. They all looked much braver and more capable than him. He only hoped he wouldn't be too much of a hindrance.

Team Steadfast

With Tess' words, Yuki had offered one of the pills to her, smirking as she scolded her lower half. Surely Legs didn't mean harm. It was good to know that she too was trying to be of help. A moment later, he was dropping the third and final pill into Claire's upturned palm. Well, at least that had been decided.

Yuki nodded to Astra, inwardly feeling a bit awkward for not packing enough. Though, ghouls always did seem to pack a lot so he hadn't entirely believed it to be needed... Jack, he'd seen one with at least five bags before she'd left the classroom in a huff to narrow down her choices. "Thanks, Astra. I appreciate it. Hopefully we won't be too bad off, though..."

Although, all of this talk of weapons and injury was making him think otherwise. "Or is that not something worth believing?"

When Mandy brought up questions regarding Fear and Natural Abilities, Yuki seemed to think hard on the answer for a few moments. "Well... I really haven't been able to work much with anything yet, but someone mentioned that the type of ghost that I am absorbs emotions? Not sure what good that could do, though... Not even sure how it's supposed to work, exactly..."
