Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I'm relatively familiar with the Maul, Al. I mean, it is the only one really close to the school so it is the only one I've ever been to. I just...I'm not as big of a Maul girl as I might look.." no matter how well dressed she was.

Shehk's ears again twitched when another voice joined the conversation, turning her head to look at their newest joining 'member' of sorts. She offered him a sociable nod. "The more the merrier, or so they say." Sometimes it wasn't. Like uninvited hunter company. Uurrrgghhh. She didn't actually make that sound, however. It seemed that unintentionally the new-comer was introduced as well.

"So we have Richard." she pointed to the newcomer, "Al," to the Faun, "Mar," to Mar, then to herself "and Shehk. Just to get some light introductions out of the way. They are painfully hard to Segue into sometimes when everybody already knows everybody else."

The tail wagging stopped the moment Neil caught sight of a certain ghouls white hair. His red eyes stared a hole through her before he remembered to blink. No, he did not hate Anna. But he was confused almost completely by her. He stuck his hands deep in his jackets pockets and hunched a bit.

"Will you ghouls excuse me just a second I'll.... be right back.." He gave them both a promising nod before wandering Anna's way. He stopped when he was safely with in not being able to be hit with a bucket range and cleared his throat with a cough instead of saying something.

Ri had just bounced onto her toes, about to gush about him being a student and her current favorite music being Johnny Danger's new CD and then.... Neil just walked away. The monster ghoul equipped a bit of a pout but at least he'd excused himself.

"Who do you think she is?" She whispered to Siobhan, leaning in on the ghoul closely. "She's pretty.. I guess. Maybe.." She muttered sourly. "I wonder if they are friends. He didn't look happy or anything.."

She clung on the banshee and gossiped like they were the oldest of friends.

He looked absolutely /elated/ at this.

"Oh thank Jack. I was starting to think I came all the way here and was going to have to leave with my tail between my legs." He confessed with a relieved sigh. SOME knowledge of the place was better than absolutely none - wich is about where his knowledge of the place ranked.

He cast a look towards Rick. Griiiining from ear to ear as he took the bait. Hook, line, and sinker, "I love books! I'm so so very fond of learning new things."

"Do... do you know where tha'd be?" He looked back to the ghoul hopefully.

"Or... stationary? Like. Pens. Ink. Paper. Stuff like that? Not that I like to write..." He added with a thoughtful look. Scratching behind a horn thoughtfully.

Overall, he was nervous. Very much out of his element. He was used to quiet forests not crammed shops.

Anna seemed less then thrilled to see him and even asked him if he intended to push a tree over her head. He huffed a bit at that.

"I'd had already done that if I was planning something like that idi-..."He held his tongue a moment not letting the word idiot escape him. This was a ghoul, not a boil. It took a small moment for Neil to really think what he was going to say.

"Were going to the music store and... if you want you can come with us." He looked over his shoulder to Ri-Ri and Siobhan. "CAUSE you look kind of ... pathetic and lost here by your self and. Um.." This was stupid. Why had he come over here any ways again? Neil was getting frustrated trying to figure that part out. He looked down at his converse and the back to Anna's face.

"You don't got a bucket ... do you?"

Anna was taken aback; she gave Neil a searching look. What did he mean by inviting her along? Did he have some kind of plan or something? Some kind of plan to be mean and make her look stupid? He'd said sorry last time, but...

"I am not pathetic, I am not lost, and no, I don't have a bucket! But I bet I could get one here if I needed one," she added. Then she peered cautiously behind Neil to the others he'd mentioned. Hm, she didn't know them at all... maybe it was his gang?! He seemed like the kind to have a gang.

But they could hardly hurt her in the music store, right? "I'll come, if you promise you're not going to be nasty," she said, finally.

Al squealed with giddy delight. Finally. He thought. He was nearing his goal. Not only that, but he was sure to have fun looking at books as well.

Turning his head towards Richard he smiled huge at him, "Yes! I can't wait!"

He really couldn't. His mind rapidly drumming over all the newer books on dragons, lizards, snakes, and all the other delightfully scaly creepy crawlies that he may get to read, buy, and hopefully get home in one piece. He followed after the ghouls closely hoping to get there even faster by sdoing so.

It never once occured to him that Rick might have been possibly being deceitful. He's already proven himself a hard read. Never a good sign... alas though. Al was stupid and all he had on his mind was the prospect of books and friendship.

The Ghoul, or rather Lattice finally introdueced herself, it had taken a moment, but he couldn't blame her, she had been worried over her friend who was once freaking over the rats, and now? Now she seemed to be talking to the little imp and gushing over her phone.

But that wasn't his concern, instead he focused on introducing himself and his cat. Sharpie took this moment to leap on to False's extended arm and run up his arm and to his shoulder where he sat up proper and tall.

"My name is False miss Lattice." Said the reaper with a bow, the small cat perked up higher bowing his own head, "And I am Sharpie." Both stood up again nodding towards Freya, and TG as well in greeting.

False offered a smile "It's nice to meet you all. Especially you."

As if to confirm this Sharpie was suddenly on the ground again nuzzling at Lattice's ankles. "....The cat agrees it seems."
