" NOT peasant!" She yelled back, suddenly met with the figure of an undead in the way of their fight. "Cause trouble anywhere I want!" Popo snapped up at Sammy. Whoever this lady was, she was just as pompous and acting above her station as that damned Doppleganger had. Must be another third year. Geez! These two were forcing her to use full sentences to explain herself. The nerve! Poppy snickered at the boil's come back, finding it slightly amusing. Yes, quite clever for a street urchin. Popo lit up one of her hands again into hot flames, shooing away the undead. "Shoo! Go now, butt-rot!"

Hamika wondered idly why she bothered even trying to sleep these days.
The undead ghoul wandered after the whisper, bed and dorm room long since left empty. She'd spent an entire lifetime it seemed trapped within the dream of Wonderland, and yet here she was, walking into the unknown. Again. The whisper was definitely enticing, and her curiosity was getting the better of her.
Again.
She rounded the corner and she stared up at the Haunted House. She'd never been to it prior to this, but she'd heard about it. It loomed over her and she glanced to the side as the whisper ushered her on further.
The sand wasn't something she was aware was in the House's grounds though. Definitely not the spires and general look of "this will kill you". She pulled out her notebook and made a note within it.Quote: [ Time and Date Unknown
I have stumbled into the Haunted House and then into a desert with a very old, very dangerous looking.... chasm thing. ]
She noticed the building labeled Agency 666 and the people streaming into it. Well then. She followed the flood of people, business suits and people muttering about coffee, reaping and delivery business. She was handed a list. and unceremoniously told to go do it..
At least she got paid for it.
Hamika rubbed her temples and left the agency to go do her work. Perhaps afterwards she could go back home and sleep.
Ha. As if.Quote: [ Time and Date Unknown, minutes later
I'm being paid to deliver things to reapers and bring coffee around. There's something going on that I have no idea what, but at least its... No, no I can't say its better than the last time.
Wondering if this is a dream or actual reality. I just don't know.
- H ]

"Aa!" Maple's body tensed the moment she realized someone was right there beside her, talking to her. And apparently as apprehensive about this whole thing as she was. It took her a moment to catch her breath and finally glance at the boil who had asked her a question. A.. raum perhaps?
"Um... er." Not like she could totally explain what was going on around them. Though, she had listened as disoriented as she had been being lead around and told about some sort of internship here. In the middle of the odd desert. "I th-think.. we're su-supposed t-to make.. them c-coffee and d-doing .... m-menial labor...." Her brows creased, yes. An internship.kuroopu Maple has no idea why you decided she was the best choice of people to be nervous with, Xavier.

Sammy was standing between them, a solid 5'7 of punk undead with dimly burning eyes because holy-jack it was bright around here. She had planned to break this up because that's what RA's do right? Also it didn't help to have them quarreling in a place spawned by the House. Jack knows what they where doing here.
She'd just gone to say something to Li Shou when Popo spoke first, rot butt.
Slowly she turned away from Li Shou leaning in towards Popo, her dim burning eyes flickering to focus on the ghouls face. "Now... I believe we have a problem...." Before the ghoul could dart away Sammy's hands lashed out lifting her up by the shoulders to hoist her into the air. "I would expect, from a student in my dorm to behave with some decency. After all I'm the Undead in the demon dorm right so I'm the missbehaved one?" She gave the ghoul a little shake, "For the sake of your dorm behave here." She turned to look over her shoulder at Li Shou as if to say you're next!

Li Shou stopped his movements when his 'opponent' was addressed in a much more serious fashion than either of them had been to eachother. There was a brief moment where he considered laughing at her misfortune, but resolved himself to simply stare and cling to his plush cat. Being told what to do by someone he considered lower was not an easy pill to swallow, but it was an improvement over being shaken like a salt shaker. Yes. He was a coward. There was some truth to the saying 'scaredy cat' for him.
His eyes shifted from the sudden assailant to 'pig ghoul', curious to see what she would do next.

Furious didn't begin to describe how Popo felt. Not only was thus curr "disciplining her, she was shaking her around like a toy. How dare she assault her in such a way! This disgusting rotting corpse not only thought she was better than her, she was treating her lower than dirt. Authority figure? Hardly. What kind of demented RA went around abusing their lower classmen like a Shake and Bake?!Popo's eyes lit up in rage. Her entire body lit on fire. She screamed out as loud and shrill as her voice would carry. She would get every adult's attention in the facility. She would not stop until this vile curr left.

Sammy was still glaring doom at Popo as she started to scream, not only did she scream but she burst into flames! Just as quickly as the demon lit up Sammy lit her own flames, the purple fires colder and stalling the burn of heat for a moment to shake the ghoul a few more times.
"Are you out of your jacking insane!?" Sammy dropped the ghoul scowling as she started to slap out small flames on her jacket singing the black material slightly. Thank Jack Siddie was sweet enough to soak the coat in no-burn a week ago given Sammy's nature of picking fights and being set on fire.

Li Shou immediately dropped Mao-Mao in favor of covering his oversized ears, his expression shifting to an immediate cringe. Oh, what a terrible idea.
... What a terrible, genius idea.
At that realization, Li Shou joined in the screaming, and threw in some waterworks for good measure. Crocodile tears were his specialty.

She'd been shaken even more. She'd sue for damages! She'd sue this b***h for all she was worth! Which wasn't much. Poppy was dropped, and she fell right onto her rear. Since Li had also joined in, Popo turned it up even more. They would shriek until this horrible third year went away. She'd join forces with this boil for this one and only purpose. "I NEED AN ADUUUUULLLLLT!!!!!!! THIS LADY HURT ME!!!!!"

Popo and Li Shou's screams did indeed attract attention. Said attention arrived in the form of a torrent of water that splashed down directly on them from the ceiling, leaving them damp and decorated with bits of slimey algae. A demon in a sharp suit lowered his hands as he frowned reproachfully at the pair, the reaper next to him absently scratching the scar that ran across her eye. The demon pinched the bridge of his nose. "Please pretend you didn't see that," he murmured to her. "As for you two..." His hand fell as his green pupils narrowed into slits. "Have you no pride? Cease this nonsense and pull yourselves together!"

Xavier's face fell.
"B-b-but how?" he stammered, twisting his hands. A few feathers fell from his hair and drifted lazily to the ground, twirling along the floor. He shifted from one foot to the other and glanced nervously around the room as though half expecting it to explode at any second."W-w-why us, though."Chirigami CUZ HE'S....yeah.... yeahhhhh....---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Pachua!" said Llyr happily, clearly very pleased to see someone else he knew. He reached out and draped himself over the boil, smiling pleasantly as he squashed him in a hug and then shifted sideways, his fingers still curled around Pachua's wrist.
"What's an intern? Is it what Puppy here said? Are we making coffee?"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- She gave him a Look.
"Shhhh," Alette whispered, putting a sleeve-covered finger to her lips. "Don't say that so loud, Sydney thinks he's a fully fledged boil, okay? I don't want him to find out 'cause maybe if he does I won't be able to climb inside of him anymore."
Her head tilted to one side.
"What are YOU gonna do, then?"

Sammy flexed the fingers in her bone hand ready to bop Popo square on the nose, she even turned to look at Li Shou with the same kind of irritation, "You're both acting like chil-"
The water was unexpected, the smiley algee was not wanted at all. Her eyes flickered dimmer now as she was clearly not happy with being soaked, or dealing with these two crying students.
Shaking her head she scowled at them both, "Do what they told you to do... Jack-damn my boots will be soaked for a week..." scowling at both of them she turned to follow another demon in a suite who gave her a look that said follow me or you'll regret it. But even as she left Sammy made one last gesture to the two.

It wasn't often that Taima gave any kind of thought towards the spiral mark on her chest; it had just been payment, of a sort, for the Clans' aid on some mission to rescue some of her classmates what seemed like an entire lifetime ago. She had not allied herself with the Horsemen, entirely too above their bitter hatred of Hunters to embroil herself in their conflicts, but it hadn't erased their mark. Eventually she forgot about it, chalking it up to just another one of those things that tended to happen at Amityville.
Now, though, it almost itched somewhere far beneath her skin. No amount of scratching soothed it, and the tingling prickle slowly spread, making her need to get up and move, to take flight in the refuge of the sky. Normally, she drifted aimlessly, content to be aloft. Today, her path seemed to have purpose, dictated entirely by the restless energy that originated from the mark.
Taima found herself bemused as she landed in front of the Haunted House. It wasn't a place she ever sought out even at the best of times, but the anxiety that had suffused her subsided as she walked into the fog surrounding it. She didn't walk far, though--she couldn't, as the mist thickened and swirled around her. This wasn't natural, it wasn't hers, and all she could do was try to blow it away with her wings.
That seemed to work a little too well. The fog coalesced into complete opacity and then seemed to fall away, somehow, in pieces. Once it cleared, she could see a deserted wasteland, full of structures and chasms and shallowly-buried conflict that Taima wanted nothing to do with. The strange little building next to the worst of it seemed more interesting for its incongruity, so that's where Taima went.
She was immediately struck with how odd it was that there was a busy office in the middle of seemingly nowhere. She watched, bemused, as creeple bustled around in their suits, all of them so busy shuffling papers from point A to point B. It seemed incredibly dull.
Fortunately, she wasn't left to wander by herself for long. Someone made mention of interns and then she was being led away and babbled at by some jittery demon that kept mentioning how busy they were and the problems they were facing and--oh, she would be getting paid for her time? That interested her. She perused the list the demon had shoved into her hands before disappearing and nodded. Coffee, at least, she could certainly handle.

Suddenly Li Shou wholeheartedly regretted having his mouth open for a good scream.
The torrential downpour left him coughing out water on the floor, taking a big gulp of air as soon as his lungs cleared. Once his primary concerns were alleviated, only then did he dare to look at the demon who had 'quelled' the situation. "Psch. Whatever." He coughed.
Off the undead beast went, and the situation was back to square one, only more damp.
The boil reclaimed his now soaked plush and carefully begun ringing him out, only tending to himself once Mao-Mao wasn't completely drenched. Momentarily he glanced at his pig-faced acquaintance and gave one swift, silent nod. It was the only affirmation he would dare offer.

Popo sneered, huffing indignantly. As if! It was that damned third year who'd gotten in the way and caused them to scream! If she hadn't shaken up the little demoness.... Oooooh she was just so livid! And that rotten self righteous Undead was walking away as if she hadn't just committed a crime! INJUSTICE! The little demon got to her feet, wringing out her hair with a scowl. " Not my fault." She huffed, giving Li a glare. Ugh... fine. She'd take the fall, if only to make this whole mess go away. She gave him a nod. " Fine." She'd get that gross a** undead! She'd get her good! How dare she assume she was here to work! She never asked to be here! It was a set up! INJUSTICE!
