Super taken aback, Essi fidgets around. Why was Nekki crying?! Make the liquid pride stahp! Essi looks around for Draconia but she was busy with...wait..isn't that guy who laied the smackdown on herne...oh dear!
Good thing Nekki had silent movie tears as being noticed by Gryff of all monsters would be...awkward? Essi got to her knees and petted Nekki's head. This worked with Pebbles...not that she was comparing Nekki to an infant.
"There there, I am fine."

Estrella Espacio "There there, I am fine." Nekki wipes away her dusty tears. "No... no, it's not that...!" she sobs, "I can't be a SKRM player...!" The poor necromancer bursts out into dry, raspy cries, her poor little heart broken. She gets off Estrella and curls her tail into a sitting position next to her. "My mom won't let me... She won't let me do anything..." Nekkis ghastly yellow eyes raise up to Estrella, her sad atmosphere making the air quite chilly around her.

Essi quits the awkward petting because reasons. Didn't make a vow earlier not to insert herself into more dram-uh? If Essi was more like her 'sister' Ivy she'd be telling this ghoul it's was none of her business, just deal with it, etc.
"Well..." Essi sighed. It's not fair when creatures use tears...
"Your mother has every right to worry....considering what happened ....previously.." Did it just get chilly in here? Are necromancer's emotions supposed to affect the climate???? Nervously Essi tried to calm her down.
"I'm sure if you dedicate yourself to changing her perspective and assuring her you'll be safe, then you can ....umm..."

Draconia St George
"Of corpse!" Draconia answered. "Dare I even say, some of the strains of crops they grow are...artisinal."THAT rated an eyebrow raise from Gryff. Was it possible that he would look at Chase in a new light?
Chase was probably a lost cause. Probably nothing Gryff did would have any impact. But if he had to go to one more bookstore and make himself look at 5 page cardboard picture books with rounded safety corners, he would go absolutely mad." ALRIGHT," he declared, more for himself than Draconia, " A new plan of attack. Where are your memoirs, philosophy and books for people with no head trauma? Gory Shteyngart, Nick Scornby, Haruki Murakaiju, Cryptia Davis. No, wait, those might be too advanced. Baby steps, this needs to be more of a...a primer. Where are your Haunter S Thompson books? I also need a copy of The Grim Gatsby."

Now, this was better. Draconia put away the circular picture books and showed Gryff where the books he was looking for were located. Draconia did want to go back and check on Necrolin and Estrella, but Gryff insisted on being shown all the different editions of each book he was interested in buying.
The time was ticking away...Draconia glanced at the clock behind the register. Soon, she'd have to get ready for her date with Harry.
"There we are!" Draconia stacked the last book on Gryff's pile. "Now that's a pile to be proud of!"

Nekki quiets her sobbing. "No..." she stammers, "No, I have to tell Atomica... " The little necro-mer wipes her tear-dust with her cold hands and floats up. "There's no arguing with my mommy. I just have to tell her... I can't play SKRM..." She opens up her black book, does some things, and then sinks into a black hole that developed on the ground. After her head disappears from the carpet, the black abyss disappears.

Gryff's ears twitched. Years of finely tuning his senses to pick up the subtlest bass, to deconstruct the most layered of passages, to catch the faintest of notes, and of course tell you exactly what was wrong with them, meant that Gryff had excellent hearing. How else does one hear about new underground no-one-tells secret coffee shops?" What, hexactly, do you need to tell Ato~" he began, turning around and finding...well nothing.
Ok, not nothing. There was that faint stale cupcake smell in the air (years of detecting the subtlest differences between GMO and non-GMO coffin beans, the faintest notes of charcoal in a roast that was clearly done within 5 miles of a pesticide facility, the...you get the idea) and some ghoul.
He looked at her blankly." Who're you?"

Essi might have jumped a bit when Nekki did the thing. Wondering if this was what others felt when she used her portals..hmm. After all those were completely different...modes of transportation...just that.
"Am I going to continue to have a bad time on this..." She looked up, she was still sitting on the ground. "Oh...err...hello?" Nervous Essi smile. Nope, nah uh, nehp, stahp, she promised not to!
Dignified Essi stood up, excused herself for potentially bothering this guy (or at least his face looked annoyed) and started towards Draconia.
"I had a lovely time here, we must try to have a conversation sometime...." Talking fast. Doesn't matter if these would have been a good opportunity to see what Lin would like. Take advantage of the fact he didn't know who she was and dip out.
She started towards the door. "Ahh yes must find 'Forever 2100' ahh yes " She talked to herself because obvious.

Melody Nocturna Finally she had managed to say yes after all her time of waiting. She said yes.
Gosh! It seems like days since Melody accepted Shad's invite to the Winter Ball! (Get it? Days? Huh? Huh? Well, I would have laughed if you had said it!) The two star crossed teens stared at one another from where they sat on the floor of the Looking Glass...
And stared...
And stared...
Shad sighed."That's okay. I underst-..."Shad blinked. He looked everywhere around him, then back at Melody."Y-you will?"She accepted? Hunh! Will wonders never cease! There must be some mistake. No, no mistake. She said yes. Wait...
SHE SAID YES!"SCORE!"Shad then clapped his claws over his mouth and blushed an alarming shade!"That one wasn't in my bean, was it?"

Shadeaux D Gloom "That one wasn't in my bean, was it?" "No, I don't think it was," She bit her lip, trying not to be too flustered in front of a boo who was actually physically excited to attend a dance with her, Rosswell never did that. "But believe me," she fidgeted, looking down at her sleeve, "I am just as excited to attend this dance with you," she looked back up at the fidgeting boo with a smile.

Gryff rolled his eyes as Eggplant and Aubergine fidgeted and tried to figure out where to look. Not at each other, apparently. Not at the same time, anyway.
Gryff sighed.
This was one of the many reasons he disdained couple-normative, archaic traditions like "dances." It would be a miracle if these two didn't fall on top of one another while attempting to dance. Although knowing Shad (though not personally, Shad wasn't quite THAT acceptable), he'd probably fall on her at some point anyway. Or on someone else. Definitely there would be non-metaphorical falling.
The complicated mating rituals of the urban teenmonster were both tedious and annoying, especially when one used "bean" to refer to something that wasn't coffee.
He glanced down at his purchases. A few books were not enough to start Chase off on his eventual path to not being a terrible bro. This centaur needed more help than one independent book store could offer. But not the kind of help that would be provided by Gryff's select list of locally-owned thrift stores.
No. He would have to go...he shuddered...to the maul.

Estrella Espacio "I had a lovely time here, we must try to have a conversation sometime...."
Draconia resolved to ask Estrella next time she saw her. The fantasy worlds of the comic universe were something Draconia loved sharing with her friends."Bloody bats!!!" Draconia hexclaimed as she glanced at the clock. "Is that the time?! I'm so sorry, but I mustgetreadyformydate-"She flew upstairs in a rush and dashed to her closet. What pair of shoes did she have that would make Harry the least nervous?!!!

Like the gallant gentlemanster that he was, Shad assisted Melody to her feet and then said,"You know, there's still plenty of time before SKRM tonight. Care to join me at the Krismon Dew Drop for a rosescary limeade?"

"Quaint little out of the way at the maul." Shad asked as he walked over to the broom closet and opened the door. "Way trippy and the perfect place to have a pow wow, maybe something to soothe the inner beast... you know..."Gallantly Shad held out his arm for Melody to take and the pair stepped into the closet, Shad's preferred method of traveling ... and a second later they emerged from the storage closet across the Looking Glass..."Whelp! Here we..."Shad then looked about at where they were and huffed."Ugh! Not again! This place is to me what a flame is to a were-moth!"
