Some of the older students may have remembered this from the previous year. A little canine student, arguably one of the smallest wisps on campus, leaving the ghost dorms with a big red wagon in tow. "Radio Flayer" it said on the side. He trundled the red wagon down the crypt steps, and through the old graveyard, heading towards the woods. It was springtime, he could smell it, and with spring came warmer temperatures and enough moisture to hasten the natural progression of rot and decay. Sure the best mushrooms would be found later in the season, but they had a good few warm days, and Jove was excited to get out and grab some of the delicate spring stalks before the wildlife got to them. The wagon made plenty of noise as it rattled across the yard, and with a spring in his step, Jove seemed happier than ever. Quote: Feel free to join in if your character knows Jove, or is curious about him or his wagon, or for any reason really! There will be some dice-related flavour text once they get to the woods, and possibly even... prizes. :3

Jove made it barely down the lane when a bone arm suddenly wrapped around his neck, another hand of flesh knuckled his hair ruffling it all up. "Hey lil fluff, what's with the wagon?" She released the Foxfire wisp before moving to walk backwards following Jove down the lane.
"You look better considering our last meeting."

Jove shrugged off the arm, fighting the rough embrace even though he knew who it was. He fought everyone who tried to ruffle his hair like that. But the pup was in good spirits, and wagged his tail from the moment Sammy appeared. He even grinned, sort of. It was more like he was baring his teeth, showing off the sharp little points peeking through his gums where they had been knocked out not so long ago. They were growing back just fine, and aside from the irritations of teething he was none the worse for their battle.

Sammy grinned at the look he gave her, it was the same kind of grin he gave her just after she had clocked said teeth out of his mouth. He was a resilient little ghost that was for sure. Reaching over she gave his cheek a good pinch.
"Yeah yeah, I see you got some teeth back smug little fuzz ball. So what's with the wagon anyway?"

Eldrid was actually driven towards the other canine's location by the music he was playing, having never expected a quiet walk would result in music playing so close to where he was. What he also didn't expect to see was the little senior student he had been in the movie class.
Giving him a little wave, he took a few steps closer, point the whole thing out. "Are you looking for trade, or searcing for new things?" He queried. He was used to sights like this - a natural feeling came over him - he'd definitively be helpful, either way.

Jove flailed, letting go of the wagon handle to shove Sammy's pinching hands away from his face. None of that, he wasn't for pinching! Maybe they could fight again later, and he could pinch her back, but today he had bigger plans! His ears perked as another student came over, and while he didn't recognize this one at first, it came to him after a moment. This boil had been with them on the field trip to watch the movie in the human world! The one that... sort of gave him really weird nightmares. But he wasn't going to let that little tidbit of information slip! He didn't reply to either of them in words, he just wagged his tail lots. How could he express his love of mushrooms in mere words when he just wanted to vibrate to pieces with happiness and excitement?

"LITTLE BROTHERRRRRRRR!!"
The obvious had arrived. Ren flung his arms joyfully around his little brother's shoulders and squeezed happily, ruffling his pale fluffy hair.
"HI LITTLE BROTHER HI!"
-------------------
Xavier, on the other hand, had no idea how he'd gotten here and was shuffling behind Eldrid like a creepy shadow without saying a word.

Helmut wanted to be everywhere. Today was her second day of school, and she had only gotten to see - gasp - one third of the whole place...because clearly her room and the path from it to the cafeteria totally counted as one-third of the whole school. Maybe it was a good thing she was in school; her math was terrible. Day Two had started with a heaping helping of cafeteria food, followed by an attempt to go to class (which was thwarted when she couldn't find said class, but instead sat in on something completely different), a brief excitement nap in her room, another trip to the cafeteria...and now she was outside.
The little Wendigo was sitting in the grass, clawed feet sprawled wide, surveying the area over gnawing on a gobbles bone. There were so many places to start, and so many places to go...but which to choose?! The obvious choice became apparent; the little group that was forming around the blue boil dragging a cart. First she sniffed the air, seeing if maybe she could get some idea about them from the distance; when that didn't bring anything interesting to her attention she scrambled to her feet and hesitantly made her way over. Her steps were slow and shuffling, her body turned at something of an angle as though she were approaching an alpha.
"Hhhe~-" Whatever greeting she was trying to say was cut off as her gaze focused on the one boil's energetically waving tail. It was almost hypnotic, and her eyes clearly darted with every attempt she made to keep up.

Absolutely no words were really needed between the two canines - he could tell right away that;
a. he was recognized!
b. the older pup was excited about what they were going to do!
So, due to emotional transfer, Eldrid couldn't help but start wagging his own tail a little, giving the boil a great smile and thumbs up, perking contently. "Got it, bro. I'm here to help if you want." He answered, figuring he was going to enjoy himself, one way or another.
As he wagged his tail, he lightly felt a kind of interference with the way it was going, and after a few moments, he turned around and caught sight of the familiar raum, ears flicking upwards, perking with his whole body.
"Xavier! Welcome! We're going on some kind of adventure with this little canine, I'm sure we'll have some kind of fun!" He was excite, and now he had a feathery shadow, what a good day!

Ruth had decided to ditch the skates while she was at school, at least while she wasn't completely certain of which areas wouldn't ruin the wheels and vice versa. She wasn't supposed to be drawing attention to herself, after all. But that didn't mean her attention wasn't allowed to be drawn in by anything, and right now, there seemed to be a group forming. And whenever groups formed, Ruth wouldn't be able to keep herself from giving things a look-see.
This is just a look-see, she told herself as she approached a fuzzy-looking ghoul trying to introduce herself to the rest of those present. When she was standing directly behind the wendigo-ghoul, the reaper began mentally reminding herself: Don't outright point out your presence. Let them realize you're there. And above all: Smile~
So she stood there, in the fringes, hands folded behind her back, the bill of her cap hiding almost half of her face, and revealing only a smile that may or may not suggest she was up to no good.

Unfortunately for Ruth - or perhaps perfectly, for Ruth - Helmut didn't even notice there was someone behind her. The little wendigo was somewhat preoccupied with trying to muster the courage to talk to these clearly-older-than-her folk, and didn't think to look behind her. It wasn't until she noticed a very obvious heat-source nearby did she even turn her head, trying to get a good look at the boil...but instead caught the glimpse of someone just in her peripherals.
Her immediate reaction was to jump and twist to get a better look at the smiling creeper. She stared for a moment, completely unsettled; was this stranger staring at her, or at the group? Where was she looking? It was hard to tell with that hat in the way, but Helmut was pretty sure she was being stared at. The ghoul let out a low whine of distress, bringing her little claws up to grab the skull on her head and pull it down in an attempt to hide out of shyness, but still finding herself staring at the creepy Reaper from under the brim of the eye socket.
Then she looked down, staring at her half-socked feet, and after a thought took a side step, pointing at the spot she just was as if to say 'Sorry, was this yours?'.

Any agent worth their shadow would deny that there was something immensely satisfying at getting a big reaction to their presence. Of course, since Ruth didn't quite qualify on being an agent worth her shadow, she allowed the existing smile on her face to grow wider in response to the little ghoul in front of her. The blond ghoul tilted her head, saying nothing and doing little else even when the spot was offered up to her.
Her lips pursed in thought, as if considering what she was going to do next. Then, she simply leaned forward, a hand reaching out as if to pat the wendigo's antler but stopping just short of actually brushing her fingers. And she simply held that pose, as if frozen.

So that...wasn't her spot? Helmut stared at the ghoul as the smile got wider and as she finally started moving, but immediately drooped a bit when she just...froze. What was wrong? Did something happen? ...Did she accidentally freeze her to death?! WAS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?! Helmut shifted from foot to foot uncomfortably, and took a half step back as if the distance might help, ducking her head to put some space between Uncle Carl's antlers and the stranger's frozen fingers.
"Hello?" She whispered, trying to draw any sort of voice from the stranger. Anything but the silent staring!

At the whisper from the ghoul, Ruth pulled her hand back and straightened up, letting the same hand rest against a hip while the other wiggled her fingers as if in greeting. All the while flashing a grin that was much too much teeth and gums. The wiggling didn't quite stop inasmuch as it shifted to a different gesture, one involving pointing to the wendigo and to the spot the shorter ghoul had been occupying from the beginning.
What exactly Ruth wanted, well, she obviously wasn't going to come outright and say it. But it was looking less and less like it had to do with why this group was even forming in the first place.xEnoh Love I am having too much fun here heart

Well...waving was a good sign, right? Helmut mimicked the ghoul, wiggling her little claws in a wave. When the spot was pointed to she looked down at it, and then back up at the blonde in the hat. What did she want? Did she want her back in that spot?! Oh Jack she was so confused! But if that's what those gestures meant...
Hesitantly she shifted, side stepping back to the spot she had vacated only moments before, her gaze on the stranger as if waiting for some sort of approval or disapproval.
