Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oh. Oh. Now that last comment had just hit poor Elaphe in the core of his destroyed masculinity. He had totally been handling himself just fine with his minipets; really, everything had gone according to plan!... except maybe the dragging thing, and the losing his bracelet, and the turning into his natural form unexpectedly and slobber drenching and being dangled shamefully in front of this weird purple tentacled whatevershewas student for its (her?) apparent curiosity.

If it was possible to fluster through sticky fur, he did right then, snout crinkling up in a clearly affronted looking frown. "I-I was just fine!" he spat defensively, little hackles bristling-- ... or at least, they would've been if his fur wasn't plastered down with slobber. Still, the bristling was short lived as humiliation deflated his sail and left him just frowning the usual way. "I'm in control of my animals!..."

Yeah, right. And he was also a fellow animal significantly tinier than them.

If only his claws hadn't been STUCK in that damned leash, he could've let HIMSELF down instead of dangled at her mercy!

Oh no, wait-- what was that thing the kind-of-dead smelling girl was offering Donner's companion-- and why was Nosi eating it so happily?! The Reigndeer seemed horrified, all of a sudden compelled to zip over and smell Shehk's fingers, then look PLEADINGLY at Nosi (who just bleated blithely and titled her head 45 degrees) as if he expected something bad to happen.

How could she eat that thing?! What had it been? What would it do to her? Was it food? Was it poison? WHAT IF IT DID SOMETHING BAD TO HER?

(To someone NOT in the little minipet's head, it would've looked like he was just standing there and quivering and panicking inexplicably.)

Alessa had a really bad habit of adopting anything that even slightly resembled a rabbit. She couldn't help it, really, she felt an odd kinship with them and well...you take care of your kin right? It hadn't been so bad at first but lately...well, her room had been turned into an odd pirate's nest. She probably should have thought twice about adopting all those lepuses...Jack was probably the worst. At least some of the others tended to listen to her. Some of them. Today had been especially bad, as she'd walked in and found the room in shambles and pieces of trinkets everywhere. She was used to their hoarding by now but...today she'd just had enough. They could at least be clean hoarders.

"Outside!" She snapped at the few she could find. She only managed to grab Richard, her pirate lepus, and Carl, her lepus guide. They others had been clever enough to scramble into the closet and hide at the hint of her displeasure. Taking the two rabbit like creatures in her arms she headed out of the dorm and onto the grounds. The farther she walked, the more her anger dissipated and finally she was able to sigh and let them both down. "How about we go for a walk? Okay? Stretch your legs so you won't be so...troublesome." Maybe.

They seemed to agree, or at least Richard did and Carl followed anyone with half a brain since he didn't seem to have one. So they hopped on ahead, Alessa following slowly behind standing tall above them. Suddenly they stopped at a corner and she was able to catch up to them. "What's going...Oh." She paused when she saw the sight they did. It seemed to be minipet chaos outside. Was there...an event she'd missed? Oh boy.

Sayuri was more than okay with being shoved off, standing to the side and watching the thing roll side to side, clearly unable to get up. Hey! That was pretty funny! Sayuri tested her luck stupidly, pawing at its tummy when it rolled her way to push it in the other direction and then promptly leaping over it to paw it in the other direction. And then she walked around to sniff curiously at its head, giving it a curious lick. Blegh! Sayuri snuffed unhappily in its face, shaking her head and backing off. Do Not Want!

Shehk had a point. Why did he have pets bigger than him? How strange! Junko put her hands on her knees and leaned in a little closer to peer at the tiny creature who apparently seemed to be a student. How curious! "I think he might be almost the same size as my foxes." She tilted her head a bit, not trying to be rude by any means just making an observation.

"Pathetic." She finally chimed in with a bored yawn. Junko pouted but tried not to give Her the time of day. Kuro squeak-barked with happiness as he was pounced, wriggling with the dog and chewing on her leg with his little teeth. Omnomnom, submit and admit defeat! "Ugh, Junko. Can we leave? This is so stupid." Junko continued to ignore Her.

"Oh? That's interesting." She looked to Julian and then the tiny student again, standing straight. She smiled at Riley's answer, seeing how now Sayuri seemed to have the upper hand. That was good. "He's a very, uh, energetic little guy?" Junko looked up when she heard a new voice. Hmmm...she was familiar...but Junko couldn't quite pin it. Damn! That was going to drive her crazy. Sayuri spotted the lepuses and just stared, her eyes near perfect circles and her tail swishing so quickly with excitement it was basically a blur of purple.

Bunnies! Bunniesbunniesbunniesbunniesbunniesbunnies!

Sin hadn't planned on walking her Unmentionables, infact she disliked going out with Pantaloons and Ladyluv. Usually her pets favorite form of exercise was panty snatching, and that never bode well for Sin. Pantaloons darted out first with a pair of Sin's lacy black panties on his head. He flew right out of the demon dorms and into the minipet and owner fray. His mate, Ladyluv followed him with a contented sounding chirping noise. Sin came running after them, her black dress hastily thrown on...and probably without underthings.

"Pantaloons get back here this second!" She leapt off the stairs trying to grab the little unmentionables tail before it could get any further. She might have managed if Pantaloons hadn't spotted Riley first. He had a weakness for skirts and dresses...and finding out what was under them. With a loud 'Riiii!' screech he darted at Riley's legs and quickly tried to climb up under her dress.

"NO!" Sin snarled and stalked out her cheeks flushing, though if it was anger or embarassment was anyone's guess.

Meanwhile Ladyluv hovered in the air with an amused grin and then looked around as if noticing all the other pets out. She quickly snatched the boxers of her head and flew down closer for an inspection.

Altair grinned, looping the end of the leather lead around his hand, winking at Shekh as she looked at him like that, laughing, watching her rub her ears, and shrugs, arching an eyebrow at her. "Really? You expect me to believe that when Nukpana is always at your side? I would have expected more out of that perv..." he smirked, murmuring the last bit under his breath, clearly needling the absent skinwalker.

Aquila sniffed up at Precious, at Shekh's foot and up her leg, glancing up at her with red eyes before he lost interest, looking over at Riley's Kirinni with more attention, tilting his head.

"Glad to hear you've enough class to know better than to let him near you," Altair told her, amused, giving her a playful nod of acknowledgement, as his golden eyes unabashedly acknowledge all of her.

Oh. Well if you're sure. Riley was not about to argue with the little monster who'd just tried to bite her finger, so she let him down just as he'd said he wanted. Good luck. She murmured, though she kept an eye on him as if waiting for him to go flying off as soon as she let him go.

Cam did not appreciate it's tummy being pawed as it attempted to right itself. It did, however, appreciate when the little purple morsel came closer to it's face. HELLO DINNER! His tentacles wiggled violently, trying to capture the pygmy fox by whatever means necessary. CURSE YOU TINY BODY, CURSE YOU!!! It was further enraged at being poked by a beak. WHAT WAS THIS TYRANNY!!! It's tiny arms tried desperately to shoo the bird away, to no avail. ICKY TASTING BIRD THING GO AWAY. It resolved to try and eat it regardless of it's taste, if it kept bothering it like so!

Yes, it agreed with Shehk. I suppose- WHAT IN JACK'S NAME? Riley shrieked, a high-pitched tone that was accidentally sent to every single brain in the vicinity, minipet and owner alike. Something had just CRAWLED up her DRESS. She tried patting it down, too embarrassed to actually reach under her dress to pull it out, but unable to just let the damn thing wiggle around in there. So frantic patting to try and dissuade it would have to do.

Sin cringed as she heard Riley and glared down at the other ghouls dress. Damn that little troublemaker it was really causing her problems now. What had gotten into them, they always stole her underthings, but lately they had been rampant in their attempts to collect from others as well. "Riley? Riley I'm so sorry! Just...just grab him by his tail!"

Pantaloons felt the first thump and then quickly ducked between her legs tugging at Riley's tights and climbing up higher to avoid being whapped. He grinned and clung to her thigh chittering excitedly and reaching up his little claws to try and snatch at her waistband and steal his prize.

Ladyluv landed near the Lepus males and struck a little pose. She batted her lashed and purred with a little roll of her shoulders. She gave the boxers a little wave as if they were a hanky and not men's underthings. Then she moved closer to Richard clearly feeling flirtatious.

Julian's wings ruffled again when even more students showed up, especially the horned boil. He rubbed the harbinger's feathers the wrong way for some reason. Maybe it was because of the suggestions he was making to Shehk. He'd seen them in ChristmasTown, and from what he had seen, the Nuk guy they were talking about had seemed genuinely concerned for Shehk when things were getting bad.

But that was quickly taken out of his focus when something flew under Riley's skirt. His eyes grew very wide as Sin came running up, her cheeks flushed. He gave her a sympathetic look, unable to do anything to help the situation.

"Hi Sin," was all he managed to say, giving her a small wave, clutching his head with his other hand after Riley's shriek. And he thought Belladonna's screams were bad...

Maggie, meanwhile, was busy playing with the fox. Oh it was so much fun! She needed to get out more, Radar and Boo never liked to play. Until Pantaloons showed up and caused even more chaos. The mutt gave the fox a huffing bark and shook him off lightly enough to not hurt him and ran over to Riley to bark at her skirt. Well, more importantly to bark at the Unmentionable IN her skirt, but to an outside viewer would see a Hazzmutt barking at the purple student.

Julian glanced back at the student caught in his natural form, his feathers ruffling at the accusing tone.
"I wasn't sure if you left it or were a shapeshifter or something. I'm good at finding things, I figured if you lost it I could try and help," he replied, his brow furrowed a bit. He shouldn't have taken offense, he knew that. He got touchy when stuck in his natural form, too. But, well... No, he really couldn't figure a reason to be ruffled at Elaphe's aggressive attitude.
