She didn't seem to be interested in brushing, and he wondered if he could get his brush back. Frowning, he scooted over, picking the brush from her lap and positioning himself beside her. He peeled one bandaid and plucked it on her cheek, and then smiled at the fat unicorn. "Here. Put a few on him. He's a bit scrapped up." He said, wanting her to have something to do.
He then started to un-braid her hair and comb it, knowing that always made him feel better. "No problem about that. It's what herds do for each other, and we have to stick together after all. Wouldn't have gotten this far without you and your ...uh...stick thingy." Yup. No clue what it was. It was just neat and useful for stopping gears. "Thanks for that by the way."

Freya let the comb slip from her fingers then Calder took it back, with no argument. The band-aids replaced them, and she looked down at them even as Calder placed one on her cheek. She reached two fingers up and touched her cheek, before pursing her lips and getting to work at placing band-aids all over Herryk's cuts.
"Herds?" She murmured, letting out a brief chuckle. "Yehr sweet, Calder." She ripped one of the little papers idly. "But I'm sure yeh would have founds something else or gotten through without me. Yeh guys are smart. Real smart. Sorry for bringing yeh down."
Her hands brushed through Herryk's hair, staring into the darkness of his locks in deep, troubled thought.

((Danny entering from Group 4 Room 1~))
Danny busted through the door like something straight out of Duke Nukem. She needed warm and she needed it NOW. Unforunately for her, it seemed the house was a constant temperature throughout. Maybe she wasn't actually cold, maybe she jut wasn't warm due to the lack of fire in the room. After all, that first room had pretty much been the dream room. Then some stupid breeze had come and put it out.
Stupid house. Stupid stupid house.
Looking around the hub, it seemed as though quite a few of her friends were already situated there. "Kelpie Calder!" she said excitedly. Well, it was more of a shout, but let's face it- talking for Danny was pretty much shouting.
She noticed Calder was a bit preoccupied with getting his hair combed by some ghoul, but that never stopped her anyways. She immediately rushed over to where he was sitting, with a ghoul Danny had never seen before. Or maybe she had seen the ghoul and just forgot. Did it matter?
Danny didn't even wait for some sort of response before she delved into her epic tail. Excitedly she said, "Isn't this house weird? There was a fiery room and it was really nice but then the stupid house put out the fire when we solved suh-duck-oh. Well I didn't solve it, Roch did, or at least I think he did, but it doesn't matter 'cause we did and now we're here." Her eyes were big and wide as she took a breath and asked, "What happened to you guys?"

Herryk rustled around a little, nuzzling into Freya's lap. It seemed that he'd moved from a fully unconscious phase to something more like a sleeping state.
A sleeping state where he... said things.
"Oh Freya," he growled playfully, "Herryk will give you all the lobsters." A few snore-grunts rumbled up from his chest before he fell silent once again, a small frown knitting his brow.

((Entering from Group 4, room 1!))
Roch stepped through the door, going around Danny without a thought and tugging his bag off of his back. He dug around in the bag for a long moment, then grunted, pulling out a ratty looking half towel and wiping his face off. Then he proceeded to take his vest off and wipe his chest and arms off as well. "Freakin' hot room," he muttered, tossing the towel back into his bag and looking around.
Huh. "Sup? What happened to the big guy?" he asked Freya curiously. He wasn't about to put the vest back on just yet. The less clothing the better!

"Really? I didn't see anything else. Now I'm sure we would just be sitting there staring at gears and poor Barth's thorns would be all torn to bits doing all the work on their own, and trust me, I'm sure even Barth's thorns don't like doing all the labor. Nope! We needed you." He combed, flicking the brush to emphasis his point. "And trust me, ghoulie, I am not smart. You need to stick around and help me out. I can't take care of that boil there all on my own. I have my own boils to tend to." He said, jabbing the point of his brush at Herryk before resuming his hair styling.
It was then that more students came tumbling in and Calder turned to see Danny. She went into her own epic tail to which she seemed dying to tell, and he smiled at her. "We got thrown into a swamp room that was very lovely but it went a tad to my head. It shot up geysers and I just don't like being tossed about. The air is no place for a kelpie. After that, we went to a gear room that we had to break to get through or else we would have been crushed. Barth and Freya here helped us out a lot. Terrible colors for the gears though but pretty flowers painted on it. I think the floor was alive to be honest but it didn't eat us. Any~who, after that their were these ....these.....metal things that talked and told us to pick a door but it just threw those things.." Calder waved up above where boos seemed to be a constant. "...and we had to fight them. Herryk here is just a tad tired." Calder rambled just as easily as Danny did, and resumed combing Freya's hair as if he were in a beauty salon.

The combination of Calder grooming her hair, Herryk sleep-mumbling about giving her lobsters, and Calder's adamant reassurances had Freya blushing red as an apple. She bit her lip, and took a deep breath, before a very tiny smile inched its way across her lips. She couldn't help it, Calder was very persuasive. Or pushy. And Herryk was .. mmm.
She didn't have much to say, but she turned to look at Calder, and a grin broke out as she bit her tongue between her teeth cheekily. "Yeh has boils to take care of, hah? Yeh looked so dashing carrying Barth back there." Her grin widened, and she bent her head to brush the top of it against his affectionately.
She liked Calder. He was kind of like a sister, the way they snapped from fighting to being affectionate in the blink of an eye. It was comfortable.
"Roch!" Freya's blush had almost faded when Roch walked in, and she gestured swiftly with her hand to try and get him to sit beside her. "He gots into bad fights with one of those ghostiess. He'll be okay, he's very strong." Her hand brushed across Herryk's chest as she said it. Yup. Very strong. "How about yeh, yehr all right then?"

Danny smiled and nodded appropriately throughout Calder's entire story. Well not the entire time, there was a clear frown on her face when Calder mentioned "swamps" and "geysers." She didn't know what a geyser was, but swamps, as he had told her, were wet places. Anything in a wet place was not a good thing.
Calder sure was making Freya's hair all nice and soft. Danny wanted to pet it almost as much as she wanted to pet puppy's ears. Come to think of it, she hadn't pet Calder's ears either. So many ears to pet QQ.
"That's sounds gross. My room was much better," Danny nodded, confirming this fact. Swamp < Fire room ANY day.
Herryk was tired? Danny knew she had seen Herryk somewhere. Somewhere. Oh well, didn't matter. Wait was it bruteball? No. DIDN'T MATTER. "Awww. Napping sounds kind of nice, but I would want a fireplace for that." Danny's eyes sparkled when she thought of fireplaces. Mmmm fireplaces.

"Napping does sound nice," Barth agreed, finally coming in from their door. "...This room, again?"
He was missing the shag carpeting already.

It was apparent by the growl that rumbled up from Herryk's chest that he was very much aware of Freya's touch, though it was obvious he was not as coherent as Freya probably would have liked. The next words out of his mouth gave proof to that.
"No," Herryk made a noise that sounded very much like a giggle, "Freya can be on top this time."
A few chuckles, a devilish grin, and then more snores. Totally oblivious.

Roch grunted, now pulling out a bottle of water and making a face. "In a second Freya. Any ice demons in here?" he asked, looking around. Then he stopped, a strange frown on his face and he looked around even harder. His hand came up, touching his chest. "Does anyone hear a bass playin?" he asked with a hint of confusion.
His hearing, while that of a reaper, was still extremely good. But he didn't HEAR anything. He just felt it. And he KNEW the feeling of a deep bass. It was slow, almost non existent, but he felt it.
"Jack it," he decided after a second of hearing nothing. "Probably one of the rooms." He uncapped his hot bottle of water and took a gulp before heading over to the others and dropping down next to Freya.

Lattice wanted to stay because after the others left the tension left with them and then Freya and Herryk arrived! She wanted to stay and chat with them and showoff her new friend but then Edel spoke up and made a very good point. Not wishing to leave a comrade behind she looked toward Lizzy, "Let us go then."
She quietly shuffled off after Edel pausing only a moment as if to linger before she left.
..She'd talk to them another time!

((Entering from Group 3 room))
Christof had taken his time lurking behind the group as they left their room. He was feeling awkward, out of place, and a bit useless. No one had even seen him defeat that boo in one punch! A waste of a good punch, really. Barth was being tended to by Calder. The First years still tending to themselves. He felt... useless.
As they milled about catching up with the other groups and doing their business, he hovered about the edges of the room, fidgeting with his belongings to try to mend his shattered shovel, but only grew frustrated and stashed the broken pieces away again.
No more to it.
With a sigh, he shifted towards Barth and Calder quietly, his face sullen.

There was a brief smile beaming up at Barth and Christof when they arrived, but it dropped as soon as Herryk mumbled something.. less subtle than lobsters. She squeaked, and her hands released his hair and dropped to cover his mouth, while laughing nervously.
"Ahah, what's that Roch? Bass? Nah, I don't hears anything!" Her nervous laughter followed her answer, but it died off as soon as Christof trudged closer, and her nervous smile melted to something more genuine.
"Christof! Yeh has a punch of a God!" She made a punching action with her fist, coupled with a silly sound effect, but her hand immediately fell back down to cover Herryk's mouth. "One day, yeh teaches me how to hit that hard, ja?"

Lizzy simply allowed herself to be tugged out of the room by Edel, giving the room's newest arrivals a quick glance before slipping out the door; Vieve was nowhere to be seen, and it worried her as much as she was sure it was worrying the rest of her group.
[Exiting~]
