 Please, have a seat.In this corner there is a cluster of little tables, numbered 1 through 3, each covered by a blood red tablecloth.
At the center, a well shaded lamp dimly glows just enough light to read the small card on the table with sample questions in case you run out of things to say.
The music is quiet, the lighting is low, and the setting is perfect for a few rare moments in time to get to know another person. This roleplay thread is for three matched pairs to come and spend a few minutes talking. You have fifteen minutes of IC time (that is 36 hours OOC time) to ask a few questions, so make them count. If you can't think of any, feel free to use the questions provided on the table. And remember, you only get a few minutes - don't waste it on questions like 'what is your favorite color'! This is your chance to find a connection between students; find something in common, or share something you've never told anyone before. Make it count!Please note: These three tables can hear each other! If you want to keep something private, make sure you're whispering.

Roch dropped down on table one, his plate placed in front of him, which he started munching on as he lounged in his chair, looking at the other tables. He wasn't really sure what was going on, just that he was expected to sit with some guy named King. He hoped the guy could sing, or play some sort of instrument to make him worthy of the name.
Sausage on a stick was surprisingly tasty.
Well, he thought, at least he was sitting with a guy. He wouldn't have to worry about strange heart beats or anything like that...

Taryn couldn't bear to abandon her cupcakes, and so brought them to the table with... what was his name? Sparrow. She sat down and crossed her legs politely, smiling and offering her hand.
"It's nice to meet you," she said, and tilted her head. Alright, how did they do this, exactly? "Let's see~ ...music. What do you listen to?" The chimera smiled broadly and rested her chin on the back of her hand.

Chuppi was very happy to have had the chair pulled out for her, seeing as it allowed her to get a better idea of how tall it was, and the little monster looked it up and down before she properly waddled over and attempted to climb up on it. The dress she wore made things difficult, though not impossible, and she managed to get seated. She did have to sit sideways because of her quills, but that wasn't a problem - she and chairs with backs had never gotten along anyway.
"Um...please have seating?" Just what were they supposed to talk about? Chuppi was confused but games were always fun, right?

Yin nodded and moved over to the chair opposite her after waiting for her to take her seat. He was about to sit down when he looked over and saw that Roch had a plate of food. "Are we supposed to have refreshments Lady Temes? I could go get you something if you desire it?"
He was not precisely hungry, but if the ghoul wanted something he could get it for her. He was in such a good mood for no apparent reason and it was his choice to do something for the ghoul. So much different than how he used to leave.

"Thank you for the offer, but shall pass? Am..." Well, she didn't want to say she was trying to watch her figure right off the bat, but at the very least she wanted to try something else in terms of being polite. "Am not quite hungry at the moment, ate before coming." A lie, but then again she really didn't need to eat - FEAR was what kept everyone going but for the monster eating was like....well, a relief. A security blanket of sorts that always made her feel better. "U, so....I think we are to be asking one another questions? Or just...general talking?"
What was she supposed to ask about other than the basic things? Was this some kind of just.....well, no she actually had no idea. It was a harsh, sad thought for her to try and figure it out. Maybe he would ask something first and she could consider going from there? One of the whole 'I turn the question back onto you' bit? But how would she get him asking her things?! Ahhh, so hard to think - mostly because she wasn't the type of monster to get all personal on things. . . but she could if she needed to?
"Um....so Yin....you, where are you from? I remember we spoke before, but you never mentioned it." Good! Ice breaker, go!

He nodded and sat down when she told him she did not want anything to eat. "I understand, I ate before coming because I wanted to ensure that Princess Eva was fed before taking her to meet the other pets." He probably should not have mentioned the rabo, for it brought to mind the fact that she was out there with all of those other tasty minipets and who knew if she was getting along with them? What if she was upset? What if she was already ready to go home and was just waiting on him to come and pick her up?
Lady Temes talking drew him back to the present. "Oh I am from a Clan that lives quite far from here, in a part of Halloween that is almost always warm." He did not really wish to talk about his home or the clan, not when he was having a fairly good evening (was Princess Eva mad at him for leaving her all by herself?). "What about you? Where are you from?And what is your family like?" There, that should be enough to keep the ghoul talking for quite a while. And keep the focus decidedly off of him.

King, for lack of a better understanding, paced around a few of the tables wary. This was a game of sorts? He was a bit confused but better to try than ignore it. There was food and drinks to be had but- hard to say and tell just what was going to happen, hence, his pacing. Finally he sighed going to the table, Boxing at the boil already seated. "Greetings, I am Frost in the Storm, else wise known as King." Sitting, his tail flicked at the table cloth. "So this is part of the Scarentines customs?" Looking to Yin he bowed his head in greeting. "I do not suppose that I was to bring a gift was I?"

Roch went still for a moment, his sense soul going off loudly in the back of his head, but his eyes supplying other things. Such as a tail. This guy was some sort of dog type ghost, which made him a little like Jove, right? Well, it was simple enough for the punk boil to accept his own reasoning, so he calmed himself enough to give the boil an easy smile. "Nah, no gifts. And honestly this is my first scarentines at Amity, so I don't really know what the tradition is here," he admitted, looking around. "But I'm thinking you're pretty new?" he said curiously. "I mean, I admit I haven't met everyone in the school yet, but I think I'd remember you." Then he realized. "My name's Roch. Roch Scythe. I'm a second year reaper."

Before she sat down Sparrow had already slipped ahead of her to pull out her chair. The ghoul already had a cupcake in one of her hand; and he couldn't let her pull out her own chair, not while it was Scarentine's, after all.
Smiling, he accepted her hand as he sat down, sweeping the tails of his coat beneath him to settle comfortably where he was.
"Ah, music?" he said, after he had given her fingers a light squeeze and now leaned back in his chair, one leg crossed lightly over the other as he surveyed the ghoul in front of him with a slightly curious expression. "Ah, I find I like...soft things. Classical, you know. What about you? What sort of music do you find appealing?"
[ OMG sorry it took me so long OTLLLL

Taryn graciously accepted her pulled-out chair and... then was taken entirely off-guard and froze. Her eyes wide, she barely even heard Sparrow's response. He'd just... he'd just touched her hand. That was.
Um.
Well.
"Oh! Oh, um... I mean. Classical, yes..." Clearly Sparrow had done something terrible. Where had all of her words gone?! The ghoul blushed darker red and moved to brush hair that wasn't there behind her ear. "I mean... yes, I enjoy classical music. I dabble, though, I mean... jazz, rock, I'll listen to almost anything. Nothing... screamy." That kind of went without saying.

"Mi familia is really, really large - I have lost count of how many now?" Chuppi looked down at her hands and folded a few fingers, like she was doing some sort of mental math. She was perfectly capable of counting without them but it was actually helping her keep track of who she named. "We're born in litters and I was the small runt of my litter - there had been two litters before me? Since then Mama has had two more, which gives me maybe...six younger siblings? Small litters of usually only three at a time, you know." Well, it wasn't like Chupacabra genealogy was widely known so she probably shouldn't speak like it was common place knowledge.
What else? He'd asked where she was from and she could answer that without too much trouble. Basic questions always got easy answers. "We are from outside of Halloween, near I suppose? Not from Human World like some think we can be, but have heard of relatives being there." Her mother may have mentioned a random crazed uncle before, but that was about it. "Am liking it here in Amityville though, very kind people most of time. Not having to always hunt for food helps though like the sport." The thrill of the hunt was not to be passed over, ever. "Umm......more...questions I suppose? Would you like to ask me one next, to start?"
Secretly she was thinking PLEASE DO NOT LET ME DO ALL THE TALKING.

"That is good to hear, I am afraid I do not have any to offer except for a few silver seeds. Well, and my clothes, but I am told that keeping them on in public is preferred." Nodding at Roch's question. "I recently enrolled. And they say when one is not meant to be known, the less they are known, the better they might become. Tis one saying among mine, though I find it flawed. But well met Roch. Your last name is of an item, does your clan go by the name of one's weapons? I am curious with the names here, they are much unlike how mine are." Looking at the other couple at the tables, his ear flicked picking up snipping of the conversations. "So what is the meaning of these festivities? Is this a ritual that heralds other events?"
