Deloris frowned, shaking her head, "nothing is wrong. Everything is o-"
"Deloris, PLEASE. You can't possibly keep being so nice to these people who have totally DEFIED our cult-" he began, crossing his arms.
"They haven't defied anything, I swear!" she tried, but it was too late. She stepped over a little, not liking the expression on the Selkie and the normie's faces.

"Culture?" Ivar quirked an eyebrow.
Meri growled a little, visibly tensing.
"Love? Love?" Ivar tried to pull her back but Meri wasn't having any of it. She stormed right up to Doran, her face in his face as she flew into a torrent of irrate Norwegian, periodically punctuating a point by poking the Selkie man in the chest.

"I have no idea what you're saying... And I'm quite frankly glad that I don't," he said calmly, taking a step back.
Deloris, now standing beside Ivar, had her jaw half open at the scene. "Well now he's done it.." she mumbled.

Ivar winced, he DID understand everything his wife was saying and it wasn't pleasant.
"She'll exhaust herself eventually...." He sounded hopeful more than certain.
But Meri didn't stop. She stomped after Doran as he tried to get away. "Ignorant, stupid." She snapped, continuing for another few minutes before giving the man one final sharp prod in the chest and storming back into the arms of her husband, who put his arms around her and let her snuggle close.
"Perhaps now we understand why things didn't work out between our children." He mused.
Meri nodded. "Vile nasty monsters."
Mister D'eath seemed unsure how to handle the scene. At first he'd tried polite coughing, which became a hacking coughing fit. When that failed, he tried "um.. excuse me? Pardon me?" but that didn't work either.
Oscar was trying hard to restrain his wife who was absolutely overjoyed by the scene and he'd had to drag her back to stop her yelling "fight fight fight" with the argument of "What are you? Ten!? We'll get kicked out!"
"I don't care! This is the beast parent creature conference yet!"
"If you CANNOT control your behaviour, security will be forced to escort you OUT" Mister D'eath had evidently found his voice at last. Two large gargoyles loomed behind him.
Ivar looked up at the teacher and nodded.
"My apologies. Some monsters are clearly not as... enlightened as others." He cast a glare to the Taylor couple.

Once Mothias had left the creepateria, he started to walk down the halls, though he still had no clue where he was supposed to be going. Just then, his phone buzzed with a hext.
From: Mottie-Poo Dad, hope your at the school. Meet creatures for Home Ick, Mad Science, and Phys Dead See u later Mott
Mothias smiled, happy his son's good timing has paid off once again. He glanced at his map, turning it this way and that to get a better look.
"Lets see... This way? My, this is a big campus." he looked around as he walked past classrooms, all except where he needed to be. With a shrug, he walked on, "I'll find one sooner or later." he smiled.

Dashner Hawke "I'm doctor McHeastie, and yes I'm Dashner's mother. He's told me quite a lot about Marceline, too! I may her when they came to Fangland this last summer." "Yes, she told us all about meeting you in Fangland." Brigitte nodded as The Baron continued to stroke the stray whiskers on his chin. "So tel' me, Docta'. He hummed. "How did y'end up with a monsta' son like Dashna' when you's a... Normie-type?" "Samedi! How rude!" Brigitte swatted her dearly departed husband with her daughter's syllabus packet, then adjusted her pince-nez and cleared her throat. "I'm sorry about him, he can just be so... well, I'm sure you must know how mansters can be... If it's a touchy subject, y'don't have to go into it, really..."

The normie fiddled with her fingers, looking up at the two monsters again. Scratching the back of her head, she closed her eyes briefly in thought. "Dashner really doesn't like me to talk about it... As long as you make sure word doesn't get to him that I told you, I guess it'll be fine.
"While it is a touchy subject, I have never really shared it before. Falconnie thinks it'd make an interesting book, possibly a best seller," She shrugged, lowering her voice slightly and looking around.
"So it started while I was still in normie college to be a scientist. Mister McHeastie and I decided to get married after I graduated High School and we did. Then we were blessed with twins. Yes, Dashner and Falconnie were human, nomie children at birth..."
She sighed slightly, as if struggling to continue, "I was told... At their birth... That they didn't make it. They convinced me that Dashner and Falconnie were dead. So I went on for 16 years thinking so. I became a scientist and life was just kind of normal, I tried pushing it all to the back of my mind, you know?
"Then I was at an old abandoned lab. It's the one your daughter and Dashner went to. I had no idea he was alive until that day, but I could tell it was him by his face. While I was happy to know he was alive, I was angry that he had been given to a lab to be tested on and be turned into... that.
"What they did to him, it's still a mystery to me. The lab he was originally in was busted by England... Fangland... Police and evacuated. But I believe that they somehow injected the genes of a bird into him, and preformed experiments to see how it effected him to be half and half like that." She finished, drinking some water from her bottle.

The last stop of the day, for Dr. Merha and his wife, was the Mad Science Laboratory. Mr. Hackington was seated at his desk, his sausage-like fingers tented in front of him as the pair stalked in.
Mr. Hackington and Dr. Merha looked like polar opposites they truly were, seated across from each other. Hackington was a bloated, pale and stained creature with crooked yellow teeth and a leathery masked hood over his face. Dr. Merha was a willowy, frazzled dark-complexioned normie man with greying hair sticking out at odd angles as he fidgeted with a notepad and pencil.
The two men locked eyes. Mr. Hack gave the pair a wide, rotten yellow smile.
"Mr. Merha." Hack began. Homer ground his teeth together.
"It's DOCTOR Merha, MISTER Hackington." He corrected. "So nice to see you again. It's been since, what? Doctor Boolittle's symposium last year? During the discussion forum? I seem to recall you were on the losing end of the debate about switching from real newt eyes to a more sustainable synthetic alternative."
"Yes, I believe so." Mr. Hack replied, his broad smile fading into a sneer. "You kept asking the good doc's assistant Mr. Trotter embarrassing questions about his daughter."
"They weren't embarrassing, I simply wanted to know if she was bipedal or quadripedal, considering her mixed lineage-"
Abyssa cleared her throat. Homer cut himself off and nodded at his wife.
"Of course, of course. We're here to discuss Kai. I certainly hope he's doing well in his studies, even though I believe that the curriculum you've created leaves out several important areas of study essential to the development of a well-balanced scientific education, you mutated manatee...."
"Eh? Wot?" Mr. Hack wheezed as he leaned forward and cupped an ear. "Wot was that?"
"Nothing! Nothing at all. Please proceed with the conference." Dr. Merha raised up his notebook and and crooked his pencil, indicating his readiness to take notes. Hack raised an eyebrow underneath his leather mask. Dr. Merha looked at him expectantly.
Mr. Hack shuffled his papers and picked one up.
"Malakai Merha, or 'Kai' as he prefers to be called, is doing acceptable in Mad Science this screamester. It's a turnaround from last year when he nearly failed, and would have if I hadn't insisted he engage in fear tutoring with Ms. Frankie Stein. It was almost as if he'd had some sort of mental block against good old-fashioned lab work, hm, wonder where THAT came from." Mr. Hack gave Dr. Merha the hairy eyeball. Dr. Merha's eyes narrowed.
"My son is an artist, not a scientist, it's true, but I can assure you, Mr. Hackington, that I do everything possible at home to provide him with a welcoming scientific environment to study and hexperiment if he so wishes. In fact, one of your star students, Melody Nocturna, often utilizes my laboratory for her projects. Not to mention the grimternship Glen da West does with me."
"Yes, I was hoping that would be a real boom, er, boon to you, Merha." Hack sneered a grin again. "But we're not here to talk about da West or Nocturna. We're talking about Kai. And right now, he's getting a solid 'C' in class. In fact, he's come to serve as something of an 'early warning' system for the entire class he's in. If something's bubbling up to explode, his tail seems to know before anyone else and starts rattling. The students know just in time to take cover before something goes kablam!"
"Oh? Well, that's good! My son's developing his scientific instincts!" Dr. Merha smiled and scribbled down some notes. "Fangtastic!"
"Eh, it's fine, if you're into all of that fancy 'forewarning' and 'not seeing students covered in ash and slime.' Thankfully, he's not in my last feariod class. THAT's the one with all the great explosions." Mr. Hack cracked his knuckles and cackled. Abyssa put an arm around her husband.
"A 'C' is an okay grade, but surely he could do better, right sweetie? Is he still being tutored?" She asked, interrupting Mr. Hack mid-cackle. He cut himself off and coughed several times.
"He may be able to get caught up in our next unit. It's a study of undersea science."
"Oh! Marine Dieology! That's great news! I'll be able to work with Kai on his homework, then. It will be a great way for the two of us to bond." Abyssa smiled, her tentacles waving happily.
"Indeed. Underwater, no one can hear you scream....unless they've installed microphones." Mr. Hack grinned and started cackling again. Abyssa gave her husband a confused look. He shrugged.
"Well, thank you for your time, Mr. Hack. Will you be attending Doctor Moreau's conference next month in the Boohamas?"
"During finals week? And miss seeing all the students suffer? Hah! Haha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Mr. Hack dissolved into another coughing/laughing fit, so the two parents decided to hexcuse themselves.

Despite some hitches along the way, Parent/Creature Conferences Day Two ended without any major incidents. Several of the parents met up again at the end of the day and promised to stay in touch. As the sun prepared to dip below the horizon, though, not a single parent or gore-dian remained, all eager to either catch flights or head home and start preparing for Fangsgiving.
The Headless Headmistress sighed. There would be no relaxation for her or Nitemare; tomorrow they would be assisting with an on-campus Fangsgiving feast for student bodies that were remaining in the doomitories over the howliday.
Somehow, though, her bones didn't feel weary at all.

Fangsgiving Morning...
It was Fangsgiving morning. Many students were off campus, visiting family that lived locally. Unfortunately for some, their parents lived abroad. For others... They just didn't want to be with their parents. But this was okay! Ms. Kindergruber arranged a Fangsgiving celebration on the school campus for monsters who were on campus during the Howliday.
The day previous, Falconnie had dragged her twin brother, Dashner, to sign up to help retrieve things for the celebration. He had left early that morning. Just as he had left, Falconnie walked down to the kitchen to see what she could help with. And she didn't come empty handed- she came with a warm batch of her 'Famous' booberry muffins- the ones Dashner couldn't get enough of. She entered the kitchen and set down her pan as Ms. Kinderguber greeted her.
"Good morning Falconnie, happy Fangsgiving! I'm happy you volunteered to help," she smiled, handing the winged ghoul a pile of plates with spoons, forks, and knives on top. Falconnie's task was to set the tables.
"Thank you," Falconnie gave a shy smile back. It was the first time somebody had wished her happy Fangsgiving all day. Nobody talked to her much... More like she avoided possibly long conversations with monsters. She held the stack and walked to the Creepiteria.
This did not look like the normal cafè.. All the tables had been moved out and Fangsgiving decor was all around the room, with a pretty long wooden table in the middle. The table was covered with a white cloth. Kinderguber went to check on a few boos who were cooking the food.
She slowly set the table, placing the plates and silverware where it was supposed to be. She smiled to herself when she was done. At last, Kindergruber gave her approval and handed her the key to unlock the front doors it the Creepiteria. She walked to the door and pushed the key in, unlocking the door and opening it. It was now open for students to come in and socialize.
"Good job, Falconnie. You can go get changed for the celebration now." With that, Falconnie gave her a smile and walked out, going up to change into her dress.

Ronan and Willow entered the creepateria with several other students.
Ronan looked around, impressed. The voulenfears really had transformed the place, and there was Falconnie bustling around putting the final touches to things. Ronan waved, he didn't know his dorm mate's sister very well unfortunately, for some reason brother and sister didn't seem to associate with one another much. Ronan wondered why, sibling dynamics werent' something he had any experience of.
"The place looks fangtastic Falconnie" He told her. "Happy Fangsgiving!"

Willow had followed Ronan in, preferring not to enter alone. The room did look amazing, catching sight of a ghoul putting final touches around. Though, now she would prefer hanging on the sidelines..

Melody stepped in with a smile, carrying her bag with both hands as she entered the Creepiteria. The place did look lovely and she wanted to compliment Falconnie on her decorating skills, she'd have to remind herself later.
"Ronan!" she called as she waved in his direction.

Demona walked in with Damon and Cassie on damons back. "Why did you have to bring her?"
Damon looked at his sister. "Her rents wanted me to...also she can have 3 fangsgivings and i'm invited to all of them." he said in a singsong voice
"You're going to get fat.."
"And if i do then i would get fat knowing about all the wonderful food i ate."
Cassandra laughed. "you two are funny."
"yes i still hate you."
"and i still hate you."
"But as long as im here you two will be on your best behavior do you understand?
"yes..." the ghouls said in unison

"Melody, Happy fangsgiving!" Ronan smiled broadly and waved back. Glad Melody was apparently not still harbouring a grudge. He made a note to not mention anything about her attire today, just in case.
It was starting to get crowded, hexcited monsters congregating in small groups to gossip and bid one another festive wishes.
He noticed Demona, Cassie and a normie boo walk in. Some monsters were already staring at the small group warily, clearly many monsters still weren't entirely comfortable around normies.
"Happy fangsgiving" Ronan wished them as he walked past.
