Interesting Conversationalist

The very hungry skinwalker was practically drooling by Shehk's side as the Pricolici scarfed down some of the meat, sitting stick-straight next to her like the good doggy he was (not). She had certainly found herself a treat! Although Jerky was good, the carnivore in him craved the pull of flesh between his teeth, the slight taste of blood on his tongue as he swallowed the pieces mostly whole, tearing and ripping at the carcass... it was all he could do to sit still, glancing between Shehk and the meat, not wanting to take any without her permission. He could not steal from his girlfriend -- anyone else was fair game but he could not take anything from her she didn't want to give.
Except maybe kisses.
Staring at the meat a moment longer when Shehk finally came over with the meat, his tongue lolling out as he gave her a doggy grin, his tail thumping in the snow. It thumped even harder as she dropped the piece of meat clearly for him, and, taking a moment to lean forward and lick her bone-muzzle, he dived in, tearing some of the flesh off and swallowing quickly before picking the whole hind leg in his jaws, growling playfully around it as Shehk grabbed his ear. Leaning on her with his entire weight, he bounded up not a second later, half-prancing in the snow before looking over at Tahki and Shehk, tilting his head as well, clearly curious of the white Gryphon. In fact, he almost dropped the bone of meat, (almost) coming a little closer and circling her once before standing in front of them again.
She seemed alright. And if she was a friend of Sammy's, she was a friend of his. Huffing an agreement, he flicked his tail once in a half-wag, grinning a doggy grin around the bone before setting it in front of the Zombie and Gryphon.
(NUK IS HEADING TO YELLOW DOOR! biggrin )

With a strong heave, Riley pulled herself up using only her arms and good leg, and slid side-straddle onto Jericho. She barely winced, still too stubborn to show any further signs of weakness, and got a strong hold on Jericho's neck. After settling down, she nudged him gently with her forehead and sent out a quiet thought.
I'm on. Thank you for continuing to carry me, Jericho. Let's keep moving.
A soft brush of thought tickled against Israfel's thoughts fondly, surrounding the gentle Thank you that Riley sent to him.
All this niceness. Thankfullness. Perhaps her previous idea of Thanksgiving was coming back to haunt her.
Or maybe it was just the blood loss.
Yes, she was sure that was it.
She tucked her wet, cold feet underneath her, only to hiss as the gashed leg stung in disapproval.

Sammy turned again from the gryphon watching Shehk and Nuk in turn. It seemed like they were both practically in heaven right now. She could see why, licking her lips briefly her eyes scanned the hunks of meat and body trying to pick it out. Yes! A head! She made note of it for in a moment for her own well earned meal. Turning again she noted the building ahead and the many doors. It seemed like that they all had a choice to make once again.
"Hey you two Skullfaced pups, we need to get ready. I think we found the workshop..." Glancing back at Tahki she reached up giving the Gryphon a fluff of her cheek feathers. "You going to join us? You look like you haven't eaten yet so maybe you can tag along after a snack. I think the yellow door looks like a good bet."
Turning away from the gryphon she moved over to the remains of the meal digging out the head. with a swift crack to the side of a wall Sammy popped the skull open and started to chow on the brains inside. It wasn't a perfect meal, it was cold from sitting in the snow and being dead far too long, but it was better then jerky indeed. Slowly she stood glancing at her small troop (it was like a circus of fluffy yet deadly animals!) and started towards the yellow door. "Jericho! Riley! We're going yellow if you guys want to meet up on the other side!"
With the snack done she tossed the head aside and waited for Nuk and Shehk to join her. "Knock knock, we have a FEAR delivery for you Mr. Sandy Claws~" And with that boot met door and Sammy marched into Santa's workshop.
((ROUND 4 FIGHT!!!1! Into the Yellow door!))

Jericho continued to remain still until he felt Riley settling down on his back. Nodding to her, he cast a glance at Israfel and Lucien before starting to move again. The way the houses were set up, the area was very maze-like he noticed.
"Alright, there's a few ways we can go about this maze," he said before presenting some options to his rider, "I could do short spurts of flight over the walls, walk quickly around them... or try to ram through the gingerbread and candy headfirst."
He had a pair of sturdy horns so it could work out. It could potentially be a bit hazardous to Riley however.
For now he was just walking on through the maze normally as it was the easiest on her. Pausing as he heard Sammy shout out at them, he nodded and kept moving.
"We'll keep that in mind!" he yelled back, "Guess that's another decision we'll have to make up ahead."

Hedera-Rose sneaked into the town and promptly stood speechless, her green-and-red color scheme possibly helping her be unnoticed. Everyone was leaving, and she-she didn't know any of those other students!
Her eyes started to water with red, and it was promptly wiped away. JOY meant you didn't cry. She needed to pretend that she belonged here...

Shehk seeemed a little startled by the face-full of doggie-kisses she received, ears sticking straight up in the air after Nuk had gone about digging in to the nice fleshy prize she'd brought over. Hmph! She hadn't..maybe..jflksdf. Okay, she would have fussed over him being a kiss-thief, but she was a little too busy trying to not get knocked over by his weight. Unfortunately, she failed and her little body flumped helplessly into the snow.
Oh! That was a personal challenge!!
The Pricolici was up after a small roll in the snow to coat herself with the stuff before she bounded after Nukpana through the door he had retreated through.
FOR GREAT JUSTICE!!
((Shehk has run away through the yellow door! c: ))

Danger be damned.
Ram it. Riley commanded with a seething hate. She wanted this place trampled to the ground.
Ram it good.

Jerky! Oh Tahki was more then happy to lick the meat offering off the zombies hand. Happily the gryphon swallowed the tasty treat with a gaint gulp. Julian
"Krewwwrrraawwrrrh~" The gryphon happily gave Sammy her thanks the best she could and rubbed her head to the other ghouls. Tahki was a lot more social as a quad then she had ever been in humanoid form. Maybe it was the joy instead of the fear floating about or it could be she was just naturally more comfortable as a quad then a humanoid. What ever it was Tahki was cheerful.
Julian came into the scene and Tahki happily greeted him with a Chirp in agreement what he said was true. Tahki had pretty much said hi. Playfully Tahki nipped at Julians hair for a brief moment before remembering she was socially awkward. An awkward red showed even behind the white feathers on her face. Still she was happy to see Julian.
A pair of empty eye sockets focused in on her though. Tahki felt her self tense for a moment before getting down to sniff the skin walker. The scent was thick with the ghouls scent. Of course though, he'd been a mount not to long ago. Tahki gave him a happy chirp of approval and watched him head for the yellow door.
She'd had followed after him too but CHEEK FLUFFS! The gryphon approved greatly of the affection and purred. Sammy couldn't have been more right though about her needed to eat. This whole trip some how Tahki had gotten around with out eating. Traveling was a tiring thing after all and used up a lot of energy. Resting and eating probably was a good idea for the time being.
So the gryphoness stayed behind and watched Shehk, Nuk, and Shehk go through the yellow door. After her noms she'd join them. But wait, Julian. Tahki turned to him and gave him a head tilt. What did he plan to do?

"Alright. Let's DO THIS."
Time to bring these walls down.
Taking in a deep breath, Jericho prepared himself before lowering his head to start charging straight through the walls that weren't made of brick. He kept his wings tucked in close towards Riley to avoid having one of them clip on a piece of unbroken wall. With his momentum, it wasn't hard to burst through the gingerbread houses, candy walls, and ice. On the plus side it probably also cleared a nice path for any other stragglers in the area.
Chunks of debris flew with each impact. Everything was relatively brittle as well, so his horns were doing a fair job with keeping his head protected as the dragon rammed deeper.

Julian fluffed up a bit when the dog-like creatures came close, what with them being much larger than him. His first instinct was to fly, but they were certainly students and wouldn't attack one of their own. Besides Tahki was there and just as he'd watch out for her, he was pretty sure she would watch out for him. It didn't matter anyways, it looked like neither of them noticed him.
The three of them walked off, heading towards the workshop, his friend didn't move. He looked up at her just as she looked down, tilting her head. She was probably asking what he wanted to do from here. He gave her a little shrug, his mouth opening in a yawn which ended with a little shake of his body, feathers fluffing for a moment before he settled them back down.
He reached out one talon and wrote in the snow. REST BIT THEN FOLLOW? He looked back up at her, head tilting a bit.
Julian's HP :: 12

Nyxtsuki Moon Night stared at Tybalt before hissing. "The fact that it melted in my hand. I haven't seen snow until now." He flipped the dog off before sighing and trying to breathe. He only got super cranky like now because of the idea of water, as well as the fact that he had been slipping and sliding all over for it. Growling he looked around for other students and snorted as he saw none. "I don't think Luck will be good with me around." Night said now, switching to depression, he was after all an unlucky cat and they seemed to always to be hitting walls on be..."Lucky" about things. He looked up to the roofs and smiled, they weren't too tall and who knew? Maybe the would get lucky after all. "Can dogs climb up?" Night snorted before making his way to the roof, crouching his legs before springing up, grabbing the end of the roof in his hands and then pulling himself up and over the roof's ledge. "Come on Tybalt...Mei-Xiu!" He held his hand out for either one to take.  "He he he..I'll...hold your hand..." A creepy elf suggests, grabbing for the ghost-cat's offered appendage. HP: 8

Looking at the Elf he dropped, Did he hurt him?
"Yo...Are you um...Alright thing?" Night poked at it. Damage: 0

Riley knew she'd just egged Jericho on, and perhaps she would regret it later if it further hindered her injuries. As of right now, however, she couldn't have been more pleased with the result. She gripped on to him tight and ducked her head, feeling oddly safe hidden under the umbrella of his wings. She peeked out from the curve and watched Christmastown fall to the might of Jericho, and gave a secret cheer. A look behind was enough to view the demise of the JOYful gingerbread houses, and candy covered debris greeted her with the twinkling of broken lights.
Oh, She sighed dreamily. Happy, Happy Christmas.

The elf protests, jabbing the boy with his candy-cane. HP: 8
