As the student body disappears off to class Damyn transformed back into a cat before wandering to the Clawditorium.
The ghostly white feline slipped through the doors and silently approached the stage to watch rehearsal.

Arillena was rerunning lines in her head and spinning her mental 'character wheel' as she awaited her cue.

If a glass of water had happened to be within arm reach, Rory would have grabbed it, doused over his/Glen's head, and melted into a puddle of goo to avoid the burning embarrassment he was feeling right now. As Mr. Rotter started handing out the written portion of the Dead Languages hexam, Rory dared to turn just enough to steal a glance at his Glen-possessed body.
He shouldn't have tried to be so sneaky about it....everymonster in the class was openly staring at him - except Marceline.
Glen gave him a large stage-wink and Rory slunked down even further in his chair.
"Eyes on your own paper. That means you, Eyera." Mr. Rotter warned the students as he walked by one whose head was nothing but a giant eyeball on a stalk.
A test slid in front of Rory, and then in front of Chase. Rory picked it up.
Did he sign his own name, or Glen's, or what....
Well, no one was going to be able to tell who did what test, Rory decided. He signed his own name.
htrowdulB mirroR
Rory did his best on the test, considering he had to read everything frontwards instead of backwards like he was used to, since he didn't want to raise anyone's suspicions by pulling out a mirror to help him translate the questions. He was distracted, though, trying to think of a way to at least communicate, however covertly, to Marceline how sorry he was for GlenRoryRoryGlen's outburst.
Was there any way he could get her alone long enough to say something - and what would he say without giving away that he and Glen had switched bodies?!!

After mourning meditation and noshing on a bagel with scream cheese, it was time to get ready for the first day of school! Well...not the official day of registration into an academic setting but still, first day! Essi grabbed her small cloth pouch and slipped it over her neck. It her portable vast space where she kept her books, pens, and new icoffin her guardians, the rock trolls, had given her. Essi is not easily nervous, but she figured this was a side effect to her new life and adjustments. As she made her way to Mr. Geode's shiny, silver Castallac she waved farewell to her "sisters" and "mother" and off to Monster High she went. "Dance in the mo--oops!" Essi had gotten carried away in her singing as she noticed Mr. Geode nodding off. "My apologies!" Hopefully Muse-Ick class could teach her to control it better. Soon she arrived and was Uuh-mazed at the sight of these different creatures co-existing in the same environment! She had much to learn here.... "Boo-bye!" She gave her guardian a hug and started toward the school entrance.

Marceline buried her face into her bony hands... With all that had happened, she was surprised Rory even wanted her to sit with him at all, much less so much he'd make a big scene out of it! Which, on that note, seemed really out of character for him... but love makes monsters do crazy things, she dismissed, as she noticed Meowlody and Purrsephone giggling over Meowlody's iCoffin and certainly felt unwanted there... She leaned down and began to gather up her books to move to another spot. "No, no! Meooowr, where do you think you're going?" Meowlody grabbed Marceline's coat tail and yanked her back down into her seat. "You're purrfectly fine to sit here, with us." Purrsephone trilled. "I'm not gonna let y'cheat off my hexam." Marceline said coldly, triggering a surprised mewl out of the twins. "Is that what you really think of us?!" Meowlody batted her eyes and pouted. "Well, you two and Toralei do have a bit of a rep'tation..." "And so do you, if you believe everything you read on The Ghostly Gossip..." Purrsephone smirked as Marceline cringed... she had a good point. "Speaking of, we've been keeping up on your plight and we feel you, ghoul... We know what it's like to be in your shoes." "We were wondering if you wanted to sit with us at lurch today! Maybe you could... um, I don't know... teach us how you make your hair look... like that." "I mean, unless you want to sit with your hex-boofriend, that's cool I guess..." Marceline opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped as Mr. Rotter placed exam sheets in front of the three ghouls "I trust this conversation can wait until after hexams, ladies?" Rotter's lip curled. "Y-yessir." Marceline grabbed her pen and signed her name at the top of her paper, but not before giving an affirmative nod to the werecat twins, silently indicating that she would sit with them later. "You have 30 minutes to complete your hexam.... BEGIN."

Estrella Espacio "Boo-bye!" She gave her guardian a hug and started toward the school entrance. "Hexcuse me, are you..." Frankie Stein paused to look at a piece of paper in her left hand. She had been lingering just inside the front door of Monster High, waiting for some brand-boo students to arrve. "Estrella Espacio?"Frankie looked the new ghoul up and down. Really, could there be any doubt as to who she was? Shimmering like stars in an inky midnight sky? Frankie put on her most welcoming grin. "Hiiiiiii! I'm Frankie, Frankie Stein. I'm part of the Boo Students Gore-ientation committee! I'm the only one on the committee who has study howl for first feariod, so I'm the one who's greeting students for a tour of the school." Frankie gushed and held out her hand to shake. "Welcome to Monster High!"

As Essi arrived at the entrance, a green ghoul with many strange markings greeted her. She shook the ghoul's hand as that was the proper response she read about. Perhaps she'll figure out what kind of monster she is later on. "Greetings, yes I am Estrella! But if you don't mind, please call me Essi. Simplicity is best yes?" She smiled her best smile.

"Well...sure, Essi! Why don't we step over he-" Frankie started to pull her hand away, but unfortunately Estrella hadn't loosened her grip yet, and Frankie's hand POP-ed right off. Frankie blushed. "Oops. Sorry about that. Here, I'll take that back."Frankie popped her hand back on and continued talking. "I'm just beyond thrilled that we're going to get some brand-boo students touring the school today! It'll give you a chance to see what the school is like before diving in on the first day of the new scaremester. I've been the new ghoul before, and let me tell you, if you're not prepared, things can get...awkward."Frankie took a look at the piece of paper in her less-easily-detatched hand."It looks like there may be two more students touring the school today, but I haven't seen them yet. Sooo, maybe I'll start the tour spiel with you, and get them up to speed when they arrive?"She reached into her purse and pulled out a folded map."Here's a map to the schoolgrounds. Be scareful if you find any doors that aren't marked on there. Sometimes I think the entrances to the catacombs under the school rearrange themselves? And it's REALLY easy to get lost down there if you take a wrong turn.
Also? The ghouls bat-rooms on the first and second floor are out of order....something about the mirrors all being broken or malfunctioning or something. So the ghouls have sort of...annexed the boos bat-room on the second floor."

As she set herself to let go off miss Stein's hand, it detached itself from the ghoul's body! How freaky! But Frankie merely took her hand back, Essi assumed this must be how she functions and just nodded. Detachable limbs... 'Maybe she's a changeling?...' Essi though to herself. "Oh does being new come with much difficulty miss Stein?" " Might I ask what I must be prepared for, I'm still adjusting to your customs." As Frankie gave her the map, going over it....and once more, the map was memorized. But since it given to her, she slipped it into her pouch. "I'm sorry but...Catacombs? Bat...oh wait no I understand that word..."

Just as Astrid was turning around the corner, she bumps into this green ghoul with monochrome hair who seemed to know what she was doing, all except watching where she was going . "... Hey!" She snaps, "watch where you're going, stranger!" Astrids horn glows an angry red as she furiously flutters her sparkly spacial wings. The monsters behind her gawk. Tilting her head to her side, Astrid finds yet another stranger, only with fantastic cosmic style! She smiles for a bit before returning to her hot-headed attitude. "what're you looking at??" She grunts, brows crossed at the strangers in her way.

"Oh miss Stein, watch..." Too late reply to a near circumstance. A Ghoul with sunny, pastel like hair/body bumped into Essi's new comrade. Another changeling? This one had celestial like wings...maybe she was also a new student!? Frankie did say there were more then just Essi. As she was about to offer a greeting however, she sensed tension and frustration from this monster.

Astrid Fantasy "what're you looking at??" She grunts, brows crossed at the strangers in her way. "Oops!" Being bumped into by another new ghoul caused Frankie to lose a foot. The foot hopped around a bit as Frankie leaned on Estrella to keep her balance. "I knew I should have double-stitched that ankle last night!"Still hopping, Frankie looked at her paper."Are you one of the brand-boo students? The tour will be starting soon. As soon as I...." Frankie knelt down and plucked her foot off the ground. "Reattach this. It's supposed to be a walking tour, not a hopping tour, after all!"Even a somewhat rude monster like Astrid wasn't going to dampen Frankie's ghoul spirit. She pulled out a needle and thread and leaned against the closest locker to whipstitch her foot back on."Our first tour stop is going to be the grimnasium!"

Gryff rolled his eye throughout Chop Class as one by one, the students brought up their ridiculous projects. So far there were 5 kinds of spice rack, 3 coffin organizers and too many boxes to count. This project's theme of "WOOD: the absolutely non-mechanical substance" was proving to be a real drag, although Mr Hyde Ra hasn't lost a finger for over 6 weeks.
Gyff watched the clock. At some point he'd probably be called up to bring his project to the head of the class, where is would amaze everyone into silence for being deeply and profoundly better than anything they had done. The project was currently sitting in a box under his seat, and no he's not telling you what it is yet. You think YOU deserve to know?
"So, tchyah, I made this box that can hold four shoes at once..." began Chase Q, as he was asked to present his work.
Gryff groaned and sunk even lower into his seat. It was going to be a long class.

Damyn Faolan Arillena was rerunning lines in her head and spinning her mental 'character wheel' as she awaited her cue. As the final sequence of the play started - the battle between the villainous Heath Burns and Toralei Stripe versus the virtuous Gil Webber and Arillena FaeDathanna for the fate of the captured monsters enslaved at Circus Sinistaria, Draconia had to quietly wipe away a tear.
The re-hearse-al couldn't have gone better. Yes, Heath forgot a couple lines, but when he stumbled he recovered quickly. And yes, Toralei's iCoffin went off in the middle of the second act, but she managed to improvise it as being a part of a spell her witch-character was casting.
As the final lines were recited and Gil and Arillena's characters walked off together into the sunset, claw-in-claw, Draconia rose up from her seat in the front row and applauded."Bravo! Bravissimo!" She clapped as everymonster in the play, including the stagehands, stepped out and took a bow to the empty clawditorium. "You all did fang-TAS-tic!"Costumes were shed and set pieces were moved back to their starting points. Draconia climbed up on the stage and shook the hands of her four lead actors."If our performance this afternoon goes that well, it's just about all I can hope for!"

As Frankie leaned on her to repair another limb, Essi turned to the other ghoul. "Salutations! I am called Essi! And you are?" Yes, she already heard Miss Stein mention Astrid's name but it's more polite to let one introduce their selves first. "Kindly lead the way Miss Stein?" "The grimnasium, hmm....that's where the casketball activity goes on?"....

Astrid puts her hands to her hips in great attitude as she blows her hair away from her face, but to no avail as it just lands right back over her eye. "... Astrid. Astrid Fantasy." She introduces, "I'm an alicorn, horse of the rings of space-time." She returns her gaze back towards Frankie, "So you're the one who's going to show me the loops? I had expected you to be more..." She gives her the once-over. "... Collected." Astrid smiles half-heartedly at her own joke. By her attitude, she obviously indicates a past where either all people were below her, she was used to bad people, or both. Either way, there was no sign of changing her attitude any time soon.
