"My mamas helped me with that when I lived at home," Chaya agreed, "but if I need things here I forget sometimes that there's other colors." She tilted her head a little. "I wonder what that's like sometimes. If it's like other creeple not being able to smell all the smells."

"I haven't thought that far at all." Cormick answered, "Got any good ideas on running a school Charlotte?"

Oh. This was good. She could help him fail. Or try, anyway. Lottie hummed as she thought, twirling her punch in hand. "A great master ought to think of such things himself, but I suppose I can lend my mind to the equation."Don't snort.. don't laugh. You can do this, Lottie!"How about starting a campaign? Put up posters to advertise yourself as supreme overlord? Maybe some of the weaker minds will be more easily swayed by... propaganda."

"I like yelling at you, but that doesn't mean I steal," Piper pouted, giving Kettil a cross look. Then that look transferred to Lock because way to stick around there, dance partner. So brave. Well whatever, when she got super famous and stuff she'd pay her cousin back and everything would be just fine and dandy!
Although come to think of it, she hadn't heard from those undead ghouls in a while . . . Nah, she'd worry about that later. Right now it was bother more people time. "Bee-tee-dub, Lock asked me to the dance, so be nice," she added, giving Kettil even more looks. "Unless he runs away. Then you can totally chase him for me~ We were gonna get food, if you and--Freya--" Piper had to remember to call her by her actual name instead of something else, "wanna come with."
And, looking at the table proper, there were even more people to bother! Socializing! Yeah! She cupped her mouth and called cheerily, "B-Reeeeeen, I seeeeee youuuuuu~♪" With some other chick she didn't know. Huh. Well, it was nice to see the quiet guy chatting and stuff, though he could've come and found them . . . With all the yelling and all . . .
She tried to tug at Lock's hand again to get them going over there, although even if it failed Piper was gonna get her some food damn it.

"Well us great minds must stay together, amirite." He watched her carefully sipping from his cup. Somewhere he wondered how such a ghoul, especially of non demon race would know anything about dominating the world.
but he had to give her credit, it wasn't all food mush up in the brain. Her body must've kept that safe from the constant eating.
"A Campaign?" Cormick's ear twitched and he set his cup down, rubbing his chin with a very serious grin. "Supreme overlord is a bit much, but I could take the next emperor of the school. Propaganda you say?" where was a notebook when you needed it.
"Ah but those tougher ones, they'd start a rebellion, must qualm that before it even begins. Perhaps a bit of trickery here and there...." Gold eyes flashed with mischief.

Lottie's mind was already a whirling of devious plots. Maybe she could set him up to have a grand speech in front of hundreds, but not before feeding him a tainted cake, making him sick on stage. Ah... yes. Lovely.
"Creeple aren't as stupid as they look. It would take a fair bit of trickery, or dare I say, charisma to quell them."

Wading among the horde of creeple in the hall, Gene finally found herself a little off to the side of the snack table, scanning anyone who came by for potential friendship material. Danny and Xiu had graduated, and though she still saw the Baku regularly, the ghost needed a school friend.
Gene spyed a pink-headed Reaper chatting up a Demon, and decided to try these two out for size. She floated to the twosome nonchalantly, disposing of her empty coffee cup in a waste bucket.
"Oh, hello there. What's all this about emperors and supreme overlords?" She asked with a smile, hand on her hip. "I hope you're not talking about Arel."

Cormick rubbed his chin more. "Fair enough, this will take time of course, and probably a formal request to my parents but...It's not like I hadn't already planned on this."
His face mottled into a sneer at the ghost ghoul, "No one was talking to you Wisp, and who the jack is Arel..." Better yet, should he care?

Gene's features, usually pleasant and bordering on motherly (or at least a favourite aunt), contorted to a nearly gargoyle scowl. Wisp? "I'm a Doppleganger, thank you very much." She brushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear, scowl returning to a haughty look of contempt as her other hand went to her hip. "It'd be good for you to learn to respect your elders, snot.
Mission: Find some friends was not succeeding thus far.

Lottie grinned widely as Gene approached, secretly pinching Cormick's side hard between her thumb and forefinger. "Now, now Cormick! We catch more bees with honey." She leaned in to whisper, "Win them over, then bend their minds. Manipulation is key.""Sorry about that, fellow student!" Lottie returned to her peppy self. "My name is Lo---Charlotte Von Schnickerdoodle. This here is the infamous Cormick Mcallister, of the great Puca clans. Surely you know of him?" Her tone, once again, dripped with taunting sarcasm. Playing into this boil's ego was hilariously fun. She gave gene a wink.

There was a dramatic change in Cormick's appearance and tone at Lottie's pinch. The sneer turned into a polite smile and he poured a glass of punch, holding it out to the ghost ghoul.
"Forgive my manners, I'm not used to being eavesdropped on and thus reacted badly." He smiled...sorta of. "Ah Doppleganger, much more...wispier then wisp I am sure."
"Unfortunately, My station of the Mcallister clan hinders my manners." He added at least. "Been at the school for long Doppleganger?"

Gene took the punch, but didn't drink any of it. Her face remained a stone, glance switching to Charlotte and Cormick. "My name is Genevieve. A Doppleganger is a species of Ghosts, who you seem to know nothing about." She scoffed, shaking her head at the ignorance of the boil. "You're not going to get off that easily, Snot. And yes, I have been here long - this is my third year, in fact." And she was eons above you, Mcallister.
"It's nice to meet you, Charlotte. It's a shame you're wasting your time with this ignorant Demon."

Amrita tried to understand what Amphi was explaining to her, she really was. It took some thought but she thought she had a grasp on it, and then the trouble came when she tried to ponder what to call that. It was hard to put a label on something that was so different, but there had to be something, right? "So like...friends with benefits?" She offered carefully, her voice low to keep the conversation between the two of them as they danced.

Being the new kid in the ... dorms ... was exciting!
It would probably be more exciting if he actually knew more people, though, which is what brought one Ignatius to the New Year's party. It sounded like there would be a lot of people gathering there, so maybe he could find some people who were as new as he was ... or as excited as he was. That worked too.
Because excited was definitely a word for how Ignatius was bouncing on the tips of his toes, glancing from side to side as he processed what was taking place around him. There were games, pillows, music--he felt like dancing, to be honest, but perhaps that shouldn't be the first place he went--a tree--whatever that thing was for, was that symbolic or something?--and some food. Food sounded good.
And there was a whole bunch of people over there!
At the same time, maybe he didn't want to get lost in the crowd. That wouldn't work very effectively... still, he wanted some food, so he ran over and snatched something before settling back and attempting to scan over those there.
Hm... Who to approach?

Damn, she almost didn't think that would work on him. But it did. Lottie felt herself get smug to the fact she might have this boil's tail wrapped round her pinky. Unfortunately, Gene wasn't playing along. Drat! Maybe Cormick was right about the upperclassmen. Lottie pouted a bit, her cheek puffing out. "Ignorant Demon or not, best company I've had all night." She admitted, Cormick being the only one to approach her that night. Maybe he'd take that like a compliment, though. "Though he does have a point. He told me earlier that uppclassmen have a High and Mighty attitude! Are..." She squinted at Gene, "..are you in league with the Fat Chested Hel?"She swatted Cormick's arm, "We don't like Hel. She's as empty headed as her boobs are massive!"
