Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lacie swiftly turned around at the sound of the familiar voice or voices. There was a shocked look, and then a muffled giggle emerged from behind her hand at the swag glasses from AJ's second partner. Her other hand was seized lightly by AJ; she felt the light brush of AJ's kiss over her hand, not refusing the polite yet slightly intimate greeting. She was admiring how attractive they looked in their respective clothes. AJ's 'head' and quirky personality also grew on her. It wasn't hard to get used to AJ and his fellow head.

She wasn't offended at all by the head's honest remarks. If anything, she took it as an assumption that he did like her. "I'll be back to my normal sparkliness before you know it." She reassured them.

"Dancing sounds fun!" Pulling on the corner of his shirt sleeve, she led him onto the dance floor. Perhaps it was the drink, or relaxed air, or AJ's easy demeanor that gave Lacie a little bit more courage to take the initiative during this time.

Stepping lightly in a coordinated fashion to the current music, she resumed their conversation. It was nice of him to consider her heels, most men Lacie knew didn't even consider a female's footwear. But AJ had no cause to be worried on Lacie's account, as she was quite used to it. "So you dressed as a girl?" An amused light entered her eyes, unable to envision AJ in a dress but she would certainly have liked to see it. "I wonder what sort of prom is that?" Lacie shouldnt have been surprised since their school was known for doing strange things. It wasn't a bad thing, but rather made a lot of things fun. "Dressing up in a dress, heels, and even as a jester; You're quited the varied boil."

Mathias enthusiastically returned her kiss and, well, it was good. The claws at the small of her back felt intimate, a little too intimate, and a shiver raced down her spine. For the first time since entering the dance, Hollandaise began to warm up just a little and she kind of wanted to continue the kiss if only for that. But she did not lose herself in the first kiss, nor the second, though she could have easily (Mathias was so nice, after all, and Hollandaise needed nice). Instead, the warder watched Deszeld out of the corner of her eye. She watched, and so she saw when the ghoul whispered something to Aisha and left, head held stiffly high.

Hollandaise had won, after a fashion. And it should feel like victory, but it didn't. It only felt stale and cold and wrong. On a sigh, she broke the kiss with Mathias and smiled distractedly down at him even as something inside her twisted a bit, anger maybe, or guilt. Mathias' gaze was utterly besotted, his cheeks pink and glowing. But the boil did not deserve to be used like that. "Thank you," she creaked out, and dropped a final kiss on his forehead. She made no move to back away, not yet, and indulged herself once more, running her fingers briefly through his hair. She leaned her head on his shoulder and tried to remmeber how to breathe.

"Alright," she said finally, disentangling his arms from around her waist and moving away. Not far, just far enough to think more clearly. "I, ah... can explain." Hollandaise suddenly became aware of various eyes, of the fact they had kissed in public. A self-conscious flush tinged the tips of her ears. "Come." She grabbed his hand, her intent simply to leave the dance, shake him out of his strange infatuation, and apologize.

Hand on Junko's shoulders, he was watching as she fussed over Peder. He was adorable, and she looked perfectly at ease with the child in her arms. The gost bent, laid a kiss on her head between the pinned loops of hair, murmuring sweet words against her scalp, before Freya and Kettil's sudden departure had him lifting his head.

"What..." Eyes wide, he stared after them. "What just happened?"

Of course his fiance was a clever ghoul, and she knew hot fix things. Hands lifted as she hurried off, seeking out Hel, and he waited for her, a wide, goofy grin on his face as he watched his ghoul drop the babe with his aunt.

"Nicely done," he'd muse as she returned to him, arms wrapping around her for a kiss. "Now." Another kiss. "I believe we were dancing." Another. Then he straightened, took her hand, and pulled her into a graceful twirl.

Rosy did her best to reassure Spinar as best as she could just with a simpke kiss before pulling back "I promise, I'm not going anywhere...unless its back to your room. So if you want to skip dancing, and head back..." she chuckles as she slips back into the building. Pulling her hand free, she twirls for a brief second before moving out to the dance floor.

Floating off the ground, she glance at all those dancing before her red eyes turn back to Spinar. She smiles as she waits for him to join her. Part of her wondering what brought on his statement, but she tossed it aside for now. She wasn't going to worry about it, as this was a night of fun.

Swaying to the music, she holds her hand out.

Rosy grin grew as Spinar dropped the fedora onto her head. Slipping her arms up amd around his neck, she pulls herself closer to him as she chuckles "You know....I'm starting to think I look good in about anything that is yours." She chuckles as she runs her fingers through his hair "I may have to just have to let you take me shopping." She teases him as they dance, her head rest on his shirt as she close her eyes for a moment.

"So you are not at all curious as to what the second half of my gift to you is?" She peeks up at him, tilting her head.

Smirking he chose to stay silent for the moment, knowing when to bite his tongue of course. But, just couldn't help himself after a moment, "you should, I can promise you a good time." Teasing his hands coiled around the ghoul as they swayed to the music. There was still a good amount of creeple out on the dancefloor but as Rosy mentioned her second gift again he couldn't help but wonder if she wanted to leave.

Tilting his head a smirk was given, before he rolled his eyes. "Of course I'm not, why in Halloween would I be curious about a gift?" Shaking his head he shrugged simply and gave the ghoul a turn in their dance before bringing her back. "I was being considerate, I do, do this from time to time, you know for creeple I like.." He chuckled low, for her ears only, then continued, "I assumed you'd like to dance before we talked about the end of the night." Considering the way he had taken her gift, it was to be the end of their night, which he had no problem with, though he did want her to enjoy the dance before hand.


Let it not be said that he didn't try to keep himself behaved, but really Jory asked for it. Regardless of if he hadn't really asked for it verbally, the smile and lips at his throat were enough of a request for Zaire. As the other looked puzzled, the monster only delighted more as it came to the other and he blushed, looking absolutely delectable. A slow grin spread his lips, hands pulling away from under the blues ones that trapped him.

Resolve snapped and Zaire was dipping to pick his date up bridal style almost, it was a better choice he reasoned than throwing Jory over his shoulder. Plus it left the other room to protest before he did in fact pick him up to cart him out of the dance, uncaring of anyone that seen them or had a problem with it.

"Make sure..my candy...doesn't drop out..." Zaire smiled down just as adoringly, meaning of course his totally full pockets of candy. When did that happen, well, awhile back but it was ok, they could feed eachother candy all night. For days...

Helki really didn't want to be here at the party at all. A party was meant to be a joyous occasion enjoyed in the company of friends and loved ones - both of which he had none over here at the academy at the moment. That plus he couldn't find it within himself to be jolly or take an interest in his studies ever since he happened to chance upon Zaire and his boilfriend Jory over at the Maul.

But the wolf boil had dragged himself here anyway, dressed in something decent and lingering near the table that had the food and drinks as he tried to soak in the atmosphere in the hope that it would lighten his sombre mood some. He wasn't in the mood for something to eat or drink at the moment but as soon as he was, he would just take what he needed then return to his room to retire for the rest of the night. Hopefully without running into Zaire and/or Jory.

Hopefully.

For a good long moment the demon was puzzled, continuing the dance though to keep from appearing exactly how he was. A questioning look was cast to the ghoul's head on his shoulder. When the music started to fade slowly Spinar was ready, but mostly his curiosity and confusion had gotten the better of him just as the song ended.

Without a word, he pulled back from Rosy then took her hand up to kiss the back of. A motion towards the door then teasing raise of brow and he was pulling the ghostly ghoul to the exit. Social events came and went, they would just have to be sure to come early next time he reasoned as they exited the dance and headed towards Rosy's dorm.
