Yea, never had no proms back n' tha ol' tatzel town. Levi found it interesting that she, at least was not the only one new to the experience of prom. She'd thought most of the students here had a pretty good idea of it... a toothy grin went Xiu's way- they had something minor in common, perhaps. Been dancin' all night maself...takin' a lil' break... she sat down at one of the chairs beside Demi. Playfully, she flicked her own tail at the wagging of the hound's, disrupting his pup-like fun or joining it.
Another sigh, but she smiled this time. Yer a handful, boil... He was sulking. But the hound did bring up a good point. Xiu hadn't danced? Seemed like the type that would want to - like Lizzy.
Xiu, ain't danced none? Ya not plannin' ta? She tilted her head at the ghoul.

" Yeah." he said something that included Moure and the music club. " H-He's joining the music club? Really? O-oh well that's good, yes!" " I mean not that it matters you know...Yeah."

"Maybe." Mac answered about his jacket; this jacket was just a formal one, it really didn't mean anything to him. "But only if you ask really, really nicely." He was teasing okay, teasing. She would very likely have his jacket by the end of the night, and all the body heat that came with it; in fact, he was pretty much boiling in it right now. She'd probably enjoy it. She leaned in again and Mac's hand slid from her hip to her lower back, pressing his palm flat against her.
The surprise and blush he expected, and her stare received nothing more than a smile...but it was his turn to blush, even just a little, at her quietly whispered answer. It was apparently what he wanted to hear, because his small smile widened and he drew her slightly closer.
"Okay, then you can have my jacket when we leave." He said aloud with a little chuckle; what he wanted to do was...probably not going to happen. There were too many people here, the dance floor too filled with strangers and Mot. He wasn't too comfortable with the idea, being so in the open right now...but...
He did draw her in for a hug at least, bowing his head once more as though to whisper something else; instead though, he placed a brief and surprisingly chaste kiss to her cheek; it was a lot easier to hide, but it still meant just as much.
Hopefully.

He gave her a strange look, a slight frown on his face. "Claire," he said. "Nah, never mind. Hey, I'm sorry I ditched you there again--but did you have a good prom?" he asked.

" I had a great prom! D-did you? I'm sorry if I wasn't the best date ever but hey, we food-danced pretty well!" she said happily

He wrung his hands together forgetting that they were rather sticky until he found that he couldn't really move them as freely as he had hoped instead he just made more of a mess.
"Well... I am glad you are having a fun time,.... I am not actually very good at the whole errr........ friends thing?" Joachim replied unsure of what to call it, it felt weird to just blurt out the word date at her. He wanted to shove his hands in his pockets like he usually did but remembering how they were sticking together he decided it was better if he didn't.
"Errr... I had fun to... well for the most part I don't count knocking a table over as fun but otherwise it was fun." A train wreck of nervous fun for him yet this was little less intimidating then the open house had been, well almost.

Deacon had quietly watched Cady from a distance, mildly annoyed by the fact that she seemed more eager to seek out another boil rather than come back toward him.
Oh well, he supposed he had given her good enough reason to avoid him.
Though, when the manticore broke away and headed back to the snack table, he headed toward it as well.
Stepping up beside her, while clearly trying to have at least a little respect for her personal space, he reached out to bat at one of the bells upon her hat with a finger.
"You got my vote. Glad to see it counted for something."

A downward twitch from one corner of his mouth was the only answer Johan gave to her inquiry. Enjoying was definitely not among the words Johan would use to describe his feelings for the Prom. However, he could see that Haddiya was in her element here, so he refrained from complaining... too much. "Duty is duty." he replied with a shrug. Haddiya's appraisal of his suit had Johan clutching the forgotten satchel of spookies in front of him defensively. Her initial answer filled him with a modicum of relief, and while his reflexes led him almost to step away from her questing hand, he schooled himself to remain where he was and allow her to straighten his tie. As a thank you. However, his eyes widened comically at her dapper comment, and if he'd been drinking anything at the handsome comment, he most certainly would have done a spit-take. As it was, Johan flushed to the point where he almost had a healthy skin-tone, and was attempting to look anywhere except at Haddiya. Obviously, he wasn't used to receiving compliments from pretty ghouls.

Roch grinned at her, a bright, honest grin that made him look his age. "Dude, it was AWESOME! First the food dancing, then I hung out with Danny for a bit, then me and Demi played meatball catch--did you know he could catch stuff in his mouth? That was really fun! Well, until he ran into a table. But we made a new pal and I got this smoothie--" He held up the cup, showing it to her. "And I love gambling. Seriously. It's jackin' addicting. But the dead monkey kept mooning me--which wasn't always a bad thing, if there was more than one, right?"

Claire didn't know what to say... IT SOUNDED FUN! She beamed at him as he explained his prom and oohed and ahhed at his cup. " M-mooning monkey? HA!" She put her hand right up, preparing for an awesome hi-five

Moure was slightly taken back when Danny pretty much jumped into his arms. As she slid/flew into his arms, Moure couldn't help but spin slightly and then set the ghoul down on her feet. "Yes....?"
Then, the fire demoness explained her reasoning. "Ahh...it makes perfect sense, actually. Although I don't know exactly why you stood on a table, although it was effective in getting me over here." He couldn't help but chuckle a bit from the antics of his 'date'. "I suppose we should dance then? We can dance as long as you like." He gave a head nod, then spoke again. "I hadn't meant to run off for so long....I'm sorry." And that was a real apology. The patchwork was ashamed of himself for running out on an Errand. Surely he could make up for it somehow?
As the songs switched to a slower one, Moure felt Danny pull him onto the dance floor for a waltz. "Would you believe me if I told you this was my first time waltzing before...?" Moure didn't even attempt to lead, but followed her steps as best he could. "Because it really is." And then Danny moved onto a much more confusing topic. Moure gave a slight tilt of his head. "Ahh...that's a really good question, actually. I...I don't know? She said she liked me. So, I asked her if she wanted to talk again later, you know when we could talk and learn more about each other?" Yes, Moure was still kind of oblivious to the fact that he'd asked Claire out on a date. maybe Danny could tell him?
Moure looked up as his hat was kidnapped by his 'date'. As Danny plopped the hat down on her head, Moure resisted laughing. Instead, he gave her a grin. "I guess it probably looks better on you, but hey, it came with this." He gestured down at his suit as he said the 'this' part. He nodded at her though, still grinning a bit. "And thank you for your compliment... Just don't lose my hat, alright?"

"W-what do you mean 'show Levi how it's done'?" She blushed, repeating Demi's words with an awkward laugh. The pink of her blush grew even deeper as she continued. "My dancing is..." Trailing off, the Baku smiled wryly. The lessons she took prior to prom was for ballroom dancing, not...break dancing, or whatever it was Charlie had just attempted. "I'd like to dance to this song, but it's not quite my...style, for the lack of a better word."
"Oh, but I did dance once this evening!" Xiu brightened up, suddenly laughing again, "When Nuk was doing that silly dance of his, Vaith dragged me in. That was a lot of fun, I'll admit" She motioned to her date and shot him a grin. However, after a few moments passed, her face suddenly fell and her voice grew quieter. "It's silly but...I'm kind of disappointed prom is going to end soon." It would be a whole year until the next prom! The very thought made Xiu's tail droop, but she managed to keep a tiny smile on her lips. It wouldn't do to get awkwardly sentimental in front of people she just met!
"Oh well. At least I got to meet some new people, right?" Xiu gestured towards Levi and Demi and her tiny smile grew just a little, "I'm sure I'll see you guys around school."

"Neither am I," Taryn admitted, "I've never done... um. This. I've never been to a dance before. I've never... yenno. Gone with a boil..." It seemed as if she was avoiding the 'd-word' as well, and could she be blamed? Neither she nor her date were the most self-assured of people, and they had indeed acted more as friends than anything else. She definitely wasn't complaining. "I'm glad you had fun! I didn't mind the table, either. You're much more interesting than the other boils."
All of which ignored her, so Joachim got extra points.

He switched hands for his smoothie, wiped it off on his pants, and gave her the high five she wanted. "But wha'd you do? Just dance?" he asked, as if that was probably the boringest way to spend a prom EVER. "Or did you find something more entertaining to do, too?"

"Well I couldn't see you in the crowd of people! And I didn't want to interrupt you and Claire or something by bumping around" Not to mention she didn't want to bump into someone carrying punch, or a water demon or something.
Danny smiled, accepting his apology instantly. "That's okay," she said, placing her head on his chest. He was about the same height as Roch, but she felt more comfortable around him. Not in any romantic way. His chest was just squishier.
No, Danny could not tell him. "Well that's good! Talking uhm ... helps. I guess. I don't really know." Danny thought for a moment, then said, "But at least you know she likes you!" Yeah, liking each other was good right? Right. "Do you like her?" Thinking upon it even further, she said, "I like her."
Keeping her head on his chest, Danny said, "I won't lose it. It's my special present." Yes, present. She had no intention of giving it back. She smiled and just enjoyed getting to dance with Moure, even if it was only one dance. Unconsciously, she was comparing Moure and Roch. Roch was much more ... rigid, edgy, but fun. Moure was more serious, but ... squishy. Comfortable. Cozy. "Come to think of it, did you dance with Claire at all?"
