As Scarentine's was just around the corner, Lizzy thought that it would be the perfect time to get Junko and her little online business set up; besides, she didn't want their reading of the 'How to set up an online blog for Dummies' book to go to waste! They spent good money and time on that stupid book! of course, Pepin came along and solved all their problems but still! It was time to put whatever they had learnt to use!
With the website set up and ready for business, Lizzy was getting a little... Impatient to get things going; they already had a few dresses up on sale, just in time for Scarentines! However, since Junko had been busy with helping the SC get their grand party ready, it didn't give them a lot of chance to do some publicity... Which was why Lizzy decided to take matters into her own hands.
With Junko's permission of course, since they were soulmates and all.
A week before Scarentines, some flyers could be seen around school - mainly pinned on the school bulletin boards - advertising an online blog shop, started up by two students, Lizzy and Junko, called 'Silk Webs'...Flyer YOU! HEY, YOU!
Are you bored of the same old dresses, suits and accessories you can find at the Maul? Are you sick of turning up in class or school-held events in a similar dress as that other ghoul? Are you tired of having your ghoulfriend complain that you're not putting enough effort into your dressing?
LOOK NO FURTHER.
Go to www.silkwebs.weblog.com today!
We promise to not disappoint! Come on down to Room 254 in the Demon Dorms now, to get a chance to win one of our special, promotional Minipet for yourself! The only other way to get it would be to buy items worth 40 seeds or more off our shop!
Promotion lasts till the 9th of this month, or while stocks last! <3 Lizzy & Junko

TL;DR : What you need to know before you post!
-> You saw the flyer above somewhere in school and was attracted to the promise of freebies! -> You find yourself at Lizzy's room; her door is open, just for the week, and a section of her bedroom had been blocked with... A giant spider web?! Better not touch it... -> You're looking to win/get that thing above! -> ICly, Lizzy (or Junko, if around) would explain the rules of the game: put your hand inside the bowl and grab a ping-pong ball. If the ball is purple, you win! If white, sorry! D: -> However, EVERYONE who dropped by would go into a raffle for 3 chances to win 1 Aromatic Mushroom!
-> The area closer to the door has Lizzy (and sometimes Junko would be there too!) seated behind a table with... --> A stack of name cards --> A giant glass bowl - that looks like your typical goldfish bowl - filled with shredded paper --> A laptop, with their blog shop website open -> In front of the table are two stools, for the shorter students to stand on
OOCly... -> Roll 1d12; get a 1, 6, 12 to win! -> Post minipet sn if you won!
-> You can try a total of 4 times! Please label your number of times in your post to keep count!

Riley was a busy woman, what with going crazy and all. She made the time to stop by and see how the little game two of her favorite people were playing, however. She patted Junko and Lizzy on the heads, before pulling out a ball. It was white, and that was severely disappointing - not because it wasn't a winner, but because she truly did prefer purple.
What a surprise.
She gave the ghouls another pat on the head, wished them luck on their little game, and slid off to go do All The Things.

New clothing? Michi loved going to the maul and buying all sorts of new outfits, but after seeing the flyer she had to admit that they were all selling the same things over and over. The red skinned ghoul loved to check out anything to do with fashion (and spending her mother's money) so she hopped and skipped right on over!!
Her bright blue gaze darted from the spider web to Lizzy seated behind a table. What was this exactly? She stepped forward with a smile painted on her lips, and looked down at the table to see what was going on. It didn't take her long to snatch a ball out of the bowl only to see that it was white. Oh well, interesting things were going on. Even if she was unlikely to read the blog (as she hated reading) but if there were pretty pictures later on, she just might actually have to try to read some of it. Maybe.

For many students, Scarentines was a time to stress over what to wear, who to bring, and what they should get the person or persons they were going to spend time with. For Merope, it was a matter of deciding which gender to attend the event as or to even go altogether. He was comfortable being himself, and yet the ghouls once again had colorful dresses. Did he still have his suit from prom? He wasn't too sure, and figured it was better to be safe than sorry.
He gave a short nod towards Lizzy upon entering her room, waiting his turn before reaching into the bowl and pulling out a white ball. Darn. He shrugged and put the ball back, turning his attention to the laptop on the table. He began to browse what was available on their website, considering.

Perusing the demon dorms halls, Ev held in her hand a slip of paper, and her trusty moths surrounding her. The demoness had found one of the many leaflets outside her door upon leaving for classes that morning. It was quite easy for her interest to have been drawn, as her family were quite the fashionable types. She herself wasn't too caught up in it, but didn't mind the idea of having another skirt handy. Curiosity, more than anything, is what made her take the venture to the room. Besides... there was a chance for a lovely little critter! As a nature demon, she simply couldn't pass that up!
It was a bit of a walk, but she didn't mind. She even saw a few others going the same way. Upon arriving at the room, she gave a polite smile and curtsy to the fellow demoness there, and an idle peek into the room, "Good afternoon~". Her attention was swiftly placed to the bowl containing the numbered spheres. This must be what was being advertised. A hand lifted to carefully reach in and pull one out for herself..
looking upon it, she saw that she was just onnneee off. Grinning a little, she chuckled to herself, and placed the ball back in, "Ah well. It was worth it~" and moved on to take a gaze at what was on display as well.

Taryn had never celebrated Scarentine's in any way outside grade school cards, and even that had been depressing. Here was the chance to really stand out on Scarentine's Day... and freebies were nice too.
The ghoul knew of Junko at least, so was less nervous about arriving. She patiently waited her turn at the bowl behind others who she didn't recognize, and the one purple ghoul from movie night. Hm. The chimera rubbed her elbows before dipping her hand in the bowl and picked up a white ball. Oh well! She stepped away, to the side of the room, and decided to observe a bit before approaching Junko or Lizzy.

Mrrrr. Upon seeing the flyer, Mort had checked the site out on his PreC, musing over its layout, prices, options . . . and cute cover girls. Yeah. Yeah, he'd go. If only because he might be able to find something closer to his price range; the closest the zomboil had to a tux was a t-shirt colored like it.
So in went the shuffling boil, who took a while to get up the hill to the demon dorms and find Lizzy's room. Several people had already gathered, including a face he sorta knew (Merope), a face he didn't know (Eve), and a couple he actually did. "Taryn, Michi, how is?" Mort greeted them with a smile, nodding to the hostesses as he stuck his hand in the cup and grasped only a white ball.

Yin did not stalk zomboils. But when he saw Mort in the distance he remembered that he had not seen him in a while, and figured it would be nice to let him know that he had somehow managed to survive being in a house full of zombies. He entered in time to see the zomboil stick his hand into a bowl and pull out a small ball. He had no idea why one would do that, but it seemed like the thing to do. "Greetings Mort," he murmured as he passed him, hoping to catch his attention. Yin then nervously approached the table and fished around for a ball of his own. Purple. That was...nice? He looked around, wondering if he was supposed to put the ball back in or hold onto it. Quote: rofl nice going Yin. sn = ramenli

Levi knew of an occasion called Scarentines. Having not celebrated it herself previously, she overheard her peers discussing it in the halls more recently. Apparently there was a dance last year? It was like a sort of prom then? Immediately the ghoul thought of what remained of her tattered and torn prom dress. A wrath demon and scissors had taken to it rather crudely and there was no hope for repair in such a condition. With a rather heavy heart, Levi knew who she'd have to confront regarding dressing for such occasions. The same someone who went shopping with her for prom and altered the dress she wore; Lizzy, the one she was worried about telling in the first place. Such a costly garment in the first place, Lizzy had taken so much care and work to her prom dress that it was a real shame to tell her it had been destroyed. All the demoness' work down the drain with a few snips. Dangit, West. He'd get his soon enough. Around a group of congregating ghouls by the bulletin boards, Levi took notice of an advertisement that had the group of giggling students discussing scarentines. It was for an online dress shop? It was headed by Lizzy and Junko... at the prompt to visit Lizzy's room, the tatzel sighed heavily, deciding perhaps this was as good a time as any to discuss it if she was already in the process of making dresses for the celebration. At her dorm, Levi noticed a few other students had come to visit for the promotion advertised. With intention of talking to Lizzy alone, Levi actually bit her lower lip nervously at seeing others there. For once since prom, she felt uncomfortable in a group. Perhaps she'd have to talk o Lizzy another time. Now that she was here, it was at least suitable for her to play the game. Aye, Lizzy! Smiling at the pink-haired demoness at the entrance (was she nervous? she may have appeared a bit nervous...), Levi got a white ball from the game and turned to leave. Instead, she felt like she was stuck; unable to leave without mentioning at least a hint to Lizzy that she needed to talk. At the same time, neither could Levi discuss this outright in front of the others. So, returning to face Lizzy, Levi took a deep breath before leaning in close and offering a whisper to the other ghoul. Somethin' I need ta' tell ya... I'll be 'on HIM later ta'night. Think ya'll can talk then? It would be fitting for them to talk over the interweb as Levi could also view their new website this way. Online shopping; maybe it was easier than shopping in person. Okay, not likely. Most of what she wore was made by ghouls back home. The tatzel had yet to even experience shopping at a maul. Her first venture outside of obtaining garments aside from what her neighbors had was with Lizzy. Prom was more than just a dress up for her. Going to that boutique was an experience. It was obvious in her mind that doing such shopping was pretty typical for those who had silver to spare. She wouldn't define her family as being paupers but- neither would they be able to provide a wardrobe of outfits that were bought from designer shops. The last thing Levi purchased with her silver was that prom dress. What she had been sent now from home would be put towards the essentials- bloomers. Bloomers were another thing to look into, but the tatzel ghoul figured she was already looking to the demoness too often for things regarding special occasions. Levi didn't want to bother Lizzy with matters of her daily attire as well. That would have to be a separate venture for a later date. Somehow, Levi would find a venue by which she could obtain some longer lasting bloomers. Those bad from back home were comfy and all, but with the way the tatzel wore them and fought- ...they didn't last long. Tears and rips were easily created so the process of shipping more from home would take longer, Levi thought, than simply finding some place nearby that she could purchase some. She'd need the for Scarentines too. Like at prom, the ghoul never wore a dress without bloomers. If she was wearing one this time around somehow, she'd need them. But this was not for Lizzy to concern herself with. It had Levi worried enough to mention the situation regarding the dress that West had handled to the demoness. Asking for places she knew of where to shop would be pushing it; especially if the ghoul reacted negatively. It would be within her right to be so; the tatzel would prepare herself for the worst mentally and hope for the best. She knew Lizzy would deny any hurt even if she was so even by the smallest measure; the ghoul was just such a pleasantly petite thing that rarely seemed to stop smiling. Dragain Not for a win, but Levi + Lizzy on HIM. ((also apologies for any possible grammatical/spelling errors there might be XD typed late. Shall edit them in the morning <3 ))

The little zombie had been intrigued about the advertisement, if only because she was curious. Frankly Scaretine's Day simply didn't matter to Hamika. Never not once in the four years since she'd come back into the world of the walking she'd never once had a date for it. Perhaps being at school now would change that, but she highly doubted it.
The fact she was a zombie put people off, really. She walked into the room, keeping her emotions very much to herself. She picked a ball, lamenting silently that it was white, and moved around the room, looking at things. She knew no one in the room and simply slipped between them as her small stature would allow. She glanced around the room as people talked to each other and let out a small sigh. And kept her eyes above their knees. No one wanted a little zombie munching on them, now did they?
Hamika stole one of the stools and sat on it, pulling out a small notebook and began to jot down things about the room and the game, making notes. Better to have them in case she would need them later.

Israfel was curious. Mostly since hey, dresses? Pretty things? Clothes with lace and frill and shinies? Junko and Lizzy were very pretty ghouls with very good taste. And very odd ships. Israfel had been trying to figure out if Junko was still with the one boil and if Lizzy was with the one boil who was with the other ghoul or is was actually a big love circle and really it was all very confusing.
Lizzy weaved very tangled shipping webs.
Arriving at her room, his ear wings flicked around.
"Lizzzzy?" he questioned her. "Are you making pretty dresses?"

musicaloner7 LIZZY IS A SPIDER, MOTHS BEWARE! [HOLY CRAP. Did I quote everyone? I tried to address everyone, but really... It's mostly Lizzy going OuO at your character.]
She recognized Riley - who received a fond smile before she left the room to probably do some president-y things - as well as Merope, Levi, and Israfel but there were so many new faces!
Honestly, she wasn't sure whether to feel nervous or excited, seeing how they had been warned how some 'new faces' might actually end up being a hunter in a golem. However, since there was no way to tell, Lizzy decided that she would be friendly... Without actually disclosing anything. To everyone who approached, she flashed a smile, holding out a name card. When there happened to be a small group gathering around, she decided to flail her arms around as a way to get their attention.
Nice going, Lizzy.
"Hello, everyone! I don't think I've ever seen most of you before, but I'm Lizzy! If you don't mind, could you write your name down here for a raffle happening at the end of this promotion? Uh, my partner, Junko, isn't here right now, but you might know her as the Student Council Vice-president!" She sounded really proud as she said that, her smile widening ever so slightly as she thought about her dear friend and soulmate. A clipboard was taken from under the table, and she started to write down the names of those she knew, before passing it on, "Thanks for coming! I really, really appreciate the support! If you have any questions, feel free to ask! And if you see something that you like... Well, the Scarentine Party is just around the corner and we actually did already made several dresses and suits." Too bad they were made with measurements from the average person - mainly with their friends as the models - so anyone taller, shorter, bigger, or smaller might not fit.
She then stared at Merope with a slight frown, "You look... Different." One thing - the last time they met, he was a she. Of course, she was a he before he was a she... But he's a he again now.
Noticing a ghoul who almost appeared to be too young to be a student sitting by herself, the demoness couldn't resist staring, if only to try to catch her attention to give her a smile; honestly, Lizzy was just attracted to small, cute things... And she happened to be a small, cute zombie.
Her attention then went to the moths, and she was between feeling horrified - please don't let those be the cloth eating kind! - and intrigued; for some reason, she just couldn't stop staring at the ghoul that the moths came with, although she did stop being creepy long enough to blush and offer her a small, embarrassed smile.
Thankfully, her attention soon went over to Israfel, and the boil... Ghoul... Uh. And the Israfel got a quick OMJ-I-HAD-NOT-SEEN-YOU-IN-FOREVER hug from her. Nodding excitedly, she grinned, "I ammm! And dapper suits too! Ohhh, you should see what Junko and I had done!" She was mighty proud of those designs, and if Israfel liked them too, then... Well, she would be one very happy spider indeed.
At Levi's whisper, she just nodded, although she was curious about what the ghoul might need to tell her... And she was being so secretive too!
"Oh, yay! Here!" Lizzy went all sparkly eyed at the boil who managed to get a purple ball, holding out what looked like an egg, feathery at the bottom but covered in lace at the top; she was beginning to think that winning was some sort of an impossible feat... And that maybe she should have put in more purple balls, "How may I address you, by the way?"Raffle list Please write down your name! Riley Merope Levi Israfel

Taryn stepped forward then and wrote her name on the raffle list, giving the pink-haired ghoul a little smile. So this was Lizzy... very nice. The ghoul wondered absently just what species she was. She went first to the open computer and peered at the blog, trying to get some idea of what was going on. ...clothes? They were selling clothes? Oh my, were they--
"You made these?" she asked the pink-haired ghoul, sounding deeply impressed. Was there anything Junko didn't do? She glanced one more at the prices and then finally turned to Lizzy in earnest. "That's amazing. I have no fashion sense-- I think I'd rather buy from you than a chain store!" Apparently the thought of looking pretty for Scarentine's excited the chimera.Dragain & OOC, is there any way to get a vague listing of what's up? Taryn will totally buy from them. 8| <3

"Well, we did!" She smiled, blushing at the compliment as she looked at the name on the raffle list, "Thank you... Taryn? Oh, but fashion sense is very much about knowing what suits you! Once you get the hang of it, shopping becomes so much more enjoyable and so much less stressing! Ohhhh, are you looking for anything in particular? Maybe I can help you with it!"Rabid Ice Weasel For female clothing, think along the lines of more... Lolita-ish stuff, or dresses with lace, ribbons, like stuff from here~ There are also simple dresses, like sun dresses/etc for people who prefer it simple! Eight and I are working to set up a Tumblr so people can get an idea of the things they do sell! <33 Raffle list [OOC: Feel free to add your own name so nobody is missed! <3]
Please write down your name! Riley Merope Levi Israfel Taryn
