Before she hexcused herself, Draconia had retrieved the aforementioned porcelain box from Layla's things and brought it back in for the makeover before she left to continue the standard creepover socializing.
Layla opened it, while she answered Hellene, "I would enjoy that. I admit I mossstly learned by obssserving, but I would be willing to try."She smiled as she finished pinning Hellene's hair in an elaborate style that gave the illusion of added length while showcasing Hellene's cheekbones. She exchanged a smile with Marceline before she opened the box and pulled out a single jewel from the many. She held it up before Hellene and Maceline's curious eyes."They are called Bindisss. They are a traditional decorative jewel in my land. They sssometimesss have meaning behind them, but recently they have been usssed for fashionable purposesss asss well. I brought one for everybloody."She placed the one back down into the jewelry box before pulling out another in a dazzling blue color."Perfect." She smiled as she used a makeup adhesive, just a small drop, on Hellene's forehead before attaching the Bindi to her. Layla then leaned back and with her hands on Hellene's shoulders, she turned the harpy ghoul around to see herself in the mirror.
Layla glanced back over to Marceline and asked, "What do you think?"

Jewels had finished with the display of food, and looked up as Draconia returned. She had a questioning expression on her face, wondering if the crisis was over and regular creepover fun was about to resume.
She frowned at Atomica's loud voice.
"Wait.. Face smashing?" Had she heard that right? "Oh goodness Sally. " Catching sight of the poor hapless ghoul in her upside down dress she tried not to laugh. "That is certainly a... unique look."

Atomica Servo "That's because it's upside-down." Looking down at the dress, Sally suddenly understood why the dress fit a bit weird. But... even upside down, it seemed odd. Certainly not her style the way it was. Sally tilted her head when Atomica suddenly pulled her out to show the others "Face smashing...?"She stood, looking around the room at the other ghouls left. She drooped her shoulders a bit in defeat and looked around. This must be what embarrassment feels like, she thought. Certainly not something she wanted to feel again.

Draconia looked at Sally in the odd, upside-down dress. Without hesitation, Draconia cried out,
"Sally! You look SMASHING!" She applauded her claws together. "Lady Grgr couldn't pull that ensemble off any better!"
Draconia raised an eyebrow and stroked her chin.
"I know what it needs. Wait here!" With that, Draconia flew upstairs, into her shoe closet and pulled out hexactly the right pair....
"Seven-inch platform open-toe glowing neon pink gogo boots!" Draconia held up the flashing shoes with aplomb. Yes, it was a bit silly. But who cared? "Sally, you must try them on!"

Sally looked down at the dress again as Draconia squealed with excitement. She just couldn't see it, it was just an odd look. She tilted her head, maybe it wasn't as bad as she had thought. Still, she just didn't understand. Draconia St George "I know what it needs. Wait here!" Sally looked up as she scurried off and tilted her head. What it needs? Her curiosity peaked its head. When Draconia returned with these bright pink platform boots, she quickly straightened up. She was right, something about them was perfect! "Oh my! They are perfect!" She took the boots and pulled them on, modeling them with the dress. Her invisible smile grew so much bigger, along with her confidence.

"Ohmygoththose boots!" Jewels clapped her hands together approvingly. The whole ensemble was so mad, so utterly unique but it just worked. Sally was perhaps the only ghoul who could pull off such an ambitious style of course, being faceless had advantages obviously.
"Sally you look... positively fault-less! " She looked to Automica, shining brightly beside her dress model.
"I'm envious, you sew so fast!"
Although they still needed a correct way up dress for Marceline. But given the previous drama, she didn't want to bring up the prospect of sewing another dress right now.

"Cassie!" Atomica turned to face her friend, the plastic robot, Cassandra. "LOOK at this ensemble. Isn't it uhhh-mazing?"
She grabbed Sally and spun her around so that the little doll ghoul could see. The upside-down, super-frilly dress. The neon, light-up gogo boots. Tentacles and sleeves all over.
Atomica gave Cassie an expectant smile.
"Beast thing everrrr, right?!"

Sally was never very good center stage, but there surrounded by the friendly faced ghouls, she was loving the lime light.
She turned quickly as Atomica spun her again. She tilted her head, looking at the little doll ghoul and held up a hand in greeting "Hello." A new face died her excitement back just a little, at least bringing her back to the ground. She tilted her head, looking at the girl.

Ascreama was eyeing up the food display when her name was called. She span around quickly, and garbled guiltily "I was going to wait until other monsters started eating too, I promise!" She blushed as she realised she was not in fact in trouble, and Draconia complimented her plush-sleeping-bag-onesie-jacket. "Oh my glubness, fang you!" She fluffed out the proofs and frills, burying her head nervously in the roomy neck. "It was imported from Japain! Well, originally we imported two because there were only small sizes available so Meme sewed those two together so it's roomy and comfy and-" she was painfully aware of rambling and cut it short to "Thank you..", grateful for Atomica announcing her re-entry to the room.
Sally was paraded and twirled in front of them in the dress shiny ghoul's handiwork, and Ascreama clapped giddily. "Eee, that's gore-geous, I bet you could pull off any style!"
She pulled out her moanbile phone out to snap some pictures of the killer outfit for her scrap book but for some reason, as soon as Sally was in shot the screen would crackle and fizz with static ripples. "Hm, interesting." She wondered what could be causing such massive interference as another monster joined the party.

Marceline cocked her head to the side to see around Layla into the mirror. The blue jewel sparkled on Hellene's forehead, nicely complimenting the gold eyeliner and the deep violet lipstick. She swished a lock of her green hair out of her face, only to have it fall into her eyes again; her hair would forever be a losing battle.
She rose from the sitting area, taking a seat in front of the mirror, and took a closer look. "Well, y'look much better now that y'haven't got all that ma-scar-a bleedin' down your cheeks." She smiled. "But something still seems missing! Let me see here..." With that, she dumped out her makeup bag, tubes and bottles clattering on the countertop. Thumbing through the items, she grabbed a small pen that when uncapped looked like a felt-tip marker. "The gold is nice an' all, but with your eyes, I think a bold upper line would really make them pop! ... if I may?" She began delicately sketching a line across Hellene's lids. "It's nice to actually use these ol' things... I don't wear much makeup but Maman insists on getting me all this die-signer stuff..."

Atomica's internal modem whirred as she received hexts from Gryff about the boo's creepover. It sounded like a total bro-fest. Even worse, it seemed like the bro had infected Gryff's phone as now he was just texting strings of the word 'bro' over and over again. Atomica rolled her LED eyes."Oh my GHOUL, you ghouls, I am getting an update from the boos creepover, and it is just a huge disaster. It's probably the worst creepover ever to creep over. You know what that means?" Atomica looked at all the monsterous faces staring back at her."IT MEANS WE WIN!!! BEAST CREEPOVER EVAR!!!!"At least...that was what it meant to Atomica. Everything was a competition, after all. And Atomica loved winning. She held up her fingers and activated a mini laser-lightshow display. "Acclaawse" by Lady Grgr started playing over her PA system."Celebrate, ghouls! A WINNER IS YOU!"

Hellene gasped with delight at the bindi and when everyone was done adjusting the last hair and errant lash, she flew up and did an elaborate twirl.
"Ohmigoth this is the beeeeeassst!"
She hugged Marceline and Layla tightly.
"You ghouls are such treasures, thank you so much! I don't know how to thank you except by offering my services in return because I'll tell you want I may not have as elaborate hair pinning coiffure techniques but I can do glitter eyeshadow like nobody else can! I just need to go get my back, I think it's still on top of the Arrght History shelf."
Hellene opened the door to the bathroom and was nearly blasted back from the frame by a wave of sound. There were rainbow lasers everywhere, reflecting little twinkles off the gold-embossed spines of Wocky's fancy leather books.
"DANCE PARTY!"

Sally looked around the room as the ghouls were dancing and celebrating some victory. She tilted her head as Atomica let off an light show. She stayed further away so as to not disrupt the music or the lights. She tilted her head as she looked around.
Everyghoul looks happy now, she thought. She smiled to herself and swayed to the music, not really sure how to dance.
