Shun didn't really have anything to say or think about Professor Blue, not knowing who the guy was. It didn't seem like the professor was all that competent going off of what Roch said. However, the Reaper couldn't help but frown at the mention of a Host club. Really?
"There's a host club?" he sighed while shaking his head. Then again it wasn't as if he would ever become a host or be a patron of one so he supposed it didn't affect him all that much.
Glancing over at Mitsu, he shrugged and finally answered her, "I guess."

"Snacks?" Xiu repeated, looking at Mitsu. Her gaze drifted towards the snacks next and she perked up, peering over at them with interest. Well, if there was anything sweet...
However, she was distracted by Demi's arrival, followed by Bul's. The former got a bright smile and a wave, while the latter earned himself a slightly more nervous--but still friendly--wave. "Hello, Demi! Hello...u-um..." Uh. Did she know the redhead's name? She wasn't entirely sure if they had ever been formally introduced.
She listened quietly to Roch, tilting her head in confusion as she spoke. Turning to Shun and Mitsu, she lowered her voice. "What's a 'host club'?" She had never heard of that club before, never mind what it was a club for.

Demi didn't have an opinion about professor Blue, considering he didn't meet the person yet. The idea of learning an instrument that he wasn't keen on trying, just didn't sit well with him. He wasn't one to normally question an instructors method but he wouldn't want to witness this method first hand.
The talk of the Host club did ring a few bells to the hound. "Isn't that lightning Dragon Aksaja the main proprietor to that club?" he asked, recalling the few Groanspring questions the dragon sent his way awhile back. It wasn't exactly his bag, but there was nothing wrong with providing some mood music for them.
However the look on Xiu's face was much more interesting than Roch's fingers flying around on his fretboard. He gave the Baku a happy wave back before dragging his beanbag chair closer to the group.
Witnessing Xiu stutter on the half beast's name, he decided to step in and help her out, and hinder his bud while he was at it. "Call him B.O. Xiu." he barked up eagerly to the ghoul.

"I take it he didn't give you a ceramic potato," Roch drawled. "And sit you down, take a brief moment to explain wind instruments then expect you to play some five notes and call it a day?" he went on. "When I was a kid it wasn't a finished class until my fingers were bleeding."
He seemed to think that little fact meant nothing (he was a guitarist, they had to develop callouses, fact of life) because he changed to the host subject.
"I have no jackin' clue what a host club is, but I do know it's hard to run a party and play the music at the same time. We need guys to make sure the snack food doesn't run out, to deal with any fights that might break out, and hell, I don't know, put up some casino games or something to the side. Kinda like prom. But smaller. That's what these guys claim to be able to do as far as I can tell. We should take advantage of it."

It was odd that no one had even thought to question where the vice president of said club was. Then again, she didn't exactly add much in terms of leadership, so maybe it wasn't all that important that she was missing. Besides, it seemed like Roch had it underway. Well sort of.
Our lovely fire demoness was late for two reasons though. Reason one being that she had overslept, due to not setting her alarm. Reason two being that she didn't set her alarm because she didn't want to go to the meeting. She was feeling a tad under the weather still (much better thanks to Malodore, but still sick-ish) and wasn't in the mood to ... lead. Although, knowing Danny, it would be mostly eating food and talking out of turn, not leading.
Either way, once she did wake up, she felt sort of bad about skipping the meeting and decided to dash down the hallways to their faithful little club room (which had been swankily decorated no less!). She ran into a boil on the way there, making her even more late, since she had to stop and pick up his books.
Finally she reached the doorway and came skidding to a halt like something out of a cartoon. Afterwards, she barreled into the classroom and hit Roch like a bag of bricks, knocking him over.
After getting over the initial daze from running into him, Danny sat up and looked around. "Where did Roch go?" she asked everyone. Looking down she realized she was sitting on his stomach. With a big innocent smile she said, "Uhh ... oopsies?" Yeah, that was definitely going to fly well.

Happily Mitsu headed to the snack table to grab a couple of cookies for her, Xiu, and Shun when she noticed the other two enter the room. Demi she had met before...kinda. She had seen him in class and at the fitness booth. The other much taller boil she had seen only once really outside of Prom and while he wasn't currently glowing....that's all she could remember. His name was eluding her at the moment so for the time being she labeled him as the glowbug from sex-ed class. Yes, Mr. Glowbug.
Bringing the cookies back to her small group Mitsu tried to think over questions to ask though she was just as confused about the host club. "I..I don't know what a host club is either." She shook her head. "They had a booth at open house didn't they?" She asked softly. Mitsu hadn't wandered in that direction but she was certain she had seen it. The letters had been rather fancy looking.
"What sort of styles do you think we'll practice first..." Somewhere along the line of braving up and asking her question Danny had come crashing into the room. A little confused by this turn of events Mitsu turned to her two friends in a questioning manner.

Ren was quite pleased to have learned that he had made it into the music club; after all, it was giving him a chance to sing, and singing was one of Ren's favorite things to do.
Besides sleep, bother the rest of the quartet, and pester Jove, that was. But other than that, he found that he rather enjoyed spending time singing.
Just not in Professor Blue's classroom.
Hands slipped into his pockets, Ren pushed open the door to the classroom, already filled with a few of the other students. Unfortunately for Ren, he didn't really see the two students on the floor and managed to trip over both of them, landing with a fwoomp half on top of Roch and Danny and getting a mouthful of feathers in the process.
He glanced back, lifting a brow. "Not particularly the best place to have a lie down, is it?" Ren asked them, quirking his head.

"B.O.?" Knitting her brows, Xiu tilted her head and looked at Demi uncertainly, before allowing her gaze to drift towards Bul. Was... was that his name? Or no, perhaps it was just a nickname? Either way, deciding that she could trust the canine boil, the Baku smiled up at the redhead and gave a small, friendly wave of her tail. "N-nice to meet you...B.O.?"
Oh, Xiu.
She turned to smile at Mitsu when the other ghoul brought over some cookies. Chirping a quiet thank you, she picked one up and nibbled at it thoughtfully. "Did they have a booth?" She must have missed it then! What a pity. The Open House had been her first unofficial day here at Amityville, so she was preoccupied with a lot of other stuff at the time.
When Roch mentioned snacks, Xiu immediately held up her hand, albeit rather timidly. "Does that mean the music club has to help with all of those things? ...I don't mind contributing some snacks, at least. I do like to bake." And if she was up for it, she would love to get Mitsu to help too. She had done a wonderful job last time! ...A...a wonderful job for one of her first attempts!
The smile on her face immediately wiped off of her face when, without warning, the vice president suddenly rushed in and bowled right into her friend. With a yelp, Xiu stood up, both her ears and tail drooping as she stared at the pair, her gaze drifting down towards the reaper who was currently being sat on. "A-are you okay...?" Her hands flew up to cover her mouth when Ren strode in next, tripping over the pair on the ground and landing on top of them.
...O-oh dear. Hurrying forward, she grabbed the gryphon's hand and tried to heave him up despite her size.

"Can't... breathe," Roch muttered after spitting out a few feathers, having been dogpiled. "Where's--oh," he said, seeing Riff fluttering in the air. At least she had avoided getting hurt. "Giddoff, would you?" he demanded, shoving at the nearest person on top of him. "I'm not a chair! Or a bed!"
And he was almost positive one of his ribs was bruised now, he thought with disgust. How could a ghoul weigh that much and still be so skinny?

Shun glanced up as a few others walked on in, including the persistent flame demon that insisted that he played the last time he saw her. Shaking his head as she collided right into Roch, he turned towards Xiu and Mitsu.
"Typically host clubs offer companionship or something like that. If you're a host, you generally serve people of the opposite gender, serving drinks and just spending time with your patrons in general," he murmured, "I suppose it could be different here but eh."
Leaning back in his beanbag chair a bit, he took the snack that the wolf girl had brought, slowly eating away at it. The room was filling up pretty quickly, it seemed.

Xiu and Demi both recieved an unpleasant look from the half beast, crossing his arms and uttering only something as pretentious to say as 'first years.'
Bul was unaware that not only was he nicknamed B.O. but also Glowbug. He would've likely taken the latter but neither were absolutely that horrible. The monster DID stink.. a lot. It was a endearing trait in some ways and in other certainly not.
Roch's argument about Blue proved valid but the only response Bul could come up with was "tough luck." Leaning back against the wall to hide his more abrasive mood and admire his fellow clubmates, he listened to the talk on host club. "Interesting.. a host club I mean. I picture a room full of delicate things and dressing up nice.." both of which earned a loud
THUMP!
from Bul's bandage wrapped tail on the floor.

Danny rolled off of Roch, bringing Ren off with her most likely. She looked at Roch and gave a mischievous smile as if to say "haha, you were squished." Her mouth decided to say something a bit nicer (at least to her it was nicer), "I think you're more of a table Roch. Or a guitar stand. Ooh no you would be a snack table with a guitarstand on it!" She clapped and swung her feet back and forth.
Instead of standing up and brushing herself off like a normal person, Danny decided to roll all the way over to a beanbag chair and throw herself in it. Once situated, she said, "Oh, and sorry Ren. I dunno why Roch was on the ground." Placing the blame on another person for shits and giggles? Awyeah.
Finally Danny straightened herself out and flopped herself across the beanbag chair so that she was laying with her head in her hands and her legs were swinging back and forth. She honestly looked like a little kid coloring in a coloring book. Her tail had been wrapped around her leg defensively, but not it was flinging back and forth through the air as well, keeping time to some inaudible tune like a metronome.
Situated, she said, "So what were you all up to?" She gave a derpy Danny smile to the room to acknowledge them all. Then her eyes landed on Shun. Oh Jack.
"SHUNNNNNNNN," she squealed, "I just knew you were gonna join the music club I knew it I knew it! Where's your guitar I wanna hear you play!" Though she was still laying in the beanbag chair she might as well have been running around the room for all the excitement she was packing in.

It was a good thing that Moure knew people who had Groanspring accounts, otherwise the Runner probably would've never found out about the FMC Results. (People could call him paranoid, but if he had a Groanspring, his 'mother' would FIND him on it. As such, Moure did not have an account for the sole reason of trying to avoid contact with her.) Moure knew he'd need to go check and see if he'd gotten the position of the Errand Boy, although he was pretty sure that he was the only person who had tried out for that position anyway.
In any case, Moure wasn't the first student to arrive, not by a long shot. The Runner read the paper, which stated that everyone had gotten in (Moure was pretty sure that's what it said, although Roch's handwriting was a little...lacking in the legibility department), before entering. Moure noticed a few students he knew, like Bul and Shun, along with the canine boil who'd thrown Danny some food at the auditions (and dropped a bone by Moure then too). He gave the two he knew by name a nod. After that, Moure looked around, wondering where both Danny and Roch were. And then he noticed the pile on the floor. Yup. The leadership were definitely present, and the Runner also noticed a certain gryphon, Ren, that he hadn't seen since the Open House. Which reminded Moure that he still needed to ask Ren about joining the Scario Kart Club.
In any case, Moure avoided stepping on any of fallen student's limbs as he moved out of the doorway. One ghoul, one with long light hair, was attempting to pull Ren up all by herself, and Moure's instinct to assist immediately kicked in. But then Danny rolled out of the pile. As such, Moure stepped over and offered out a hand to both Roch and Ren. He didn't know if either would need the help up (Or even take the help in Roch's case), but it was always good to offer to help, right?

Hearing the loud thuds, Shun glanced to the side at Bul, uncertain what the tail thumps were supposed to mean.
"Something like that," he shrugged in response to how the lizard student imagined things. While he hadn't personally gone to a host club, he's seen some images and kind of glanced into one out of curiosity. It wasn't his sort of thing for sure.
Hearing his name being squealed out, the Reaper froze and twitched slightly before narrowing his eyes over at Danny.
"Does it look like I brought it?" he huffed, "And I didn't join. I was brought along to check the results of the girls."
Shaking his head, his attention briefly shifted to the newest entrant of the room. It was the running zombie he had... literally run into once. Moure was the name, if he recalled correctly. Seeing the nod, he went on and returned the gesture.

"Oh. Hello, Xiu," Ren said, smiling pleasantly up at the ghoul from his place on the floor, as if being flopped in a pile on top of two other people was a perfectly normal occurrence. He spat out a feather, his wings flapping automatically. "How are yo - oomph!"
Roch had pushed irritatedly at his side to get him off the same time that Danny had decided to, er...roll off, and Ren found himself dragged with her, accidentally pulling both Xiu and Moure, who had come up behind her to help, down to the floor with him.
"Ouch - "
Ren's tail twisted out from beneath him as he attempted to right himself. Pushing himself up on his hands, he used his wings to lever the rest of him vertical, and then finally managed to get to his feet, hauling Xiu and Moure back up as well.
"Sorry, guys," he said to them, somewhat sheepishly, with a glance over at Danny that was half amusement, half exasperation. "Well, at least I made quite an entrance, right?"
Shaking his head, Ren gave a lighthearted laugh, and then slung an arm around both Moure and Xiu, ambling towards the nearest set of chairs. "How are you guys, anyway? Xiu, you look lovely today; did you have fun at prom with Vaithy poo? He better have acted like a gentleman. And Moure, it's been a while, man. What's up with you lately? Played any Scario Kart recently?"
