Sally tilted her head, but waved as Jewels and Motthew left for class. She turned and headed off herself, heading to her Algebra class. She took in the unique looks of each monster she passed, tilting her head. Some she'd seen before, but others were foreign to her.

Vinnie shambled into school just moments before the bell rang, with dead leaves stuck in her mohawk and dirt stains on her jacket. That weekend, she'd camped outside The Looking Glass, fully intending to make them regret not inviting her. She was to wait until just the right moment to sneak in and wreak havok... but instead fell asleep. And true to her father's lineage, she stayed asleep for the remainder of the weekend...
The hustle and bustle of a Moanday morning stirred her just in time to scramble to her feet and make it to school, where her classmates were decked out in unusual costumes. She wasn't certain what was going on, but she wasn't about to ask questions about it. At this point, she'd rather make it through the day unnoticed.

"Oh...bother....sorry, sorry!" Draconia HAD been heading towards her first class, but instead found her armour and wings tangled up with Venus McFlytrap's leaves and fronds as the plant ghoul had run by. The two ghouls twisted and pulled, but were quite snagged into each other.
"Don't pull! Don't pull! My vines grow out of me!" Venus pleaded as Draconia tried her best to extract the flora from her fauna.
"It's no use. How in the WORLD did I manage this?!" Draconia moaned, lifting one hand to her forehead, which somehow caused Venus to whap herself in the nose with her foot. They were VERY entangled. "Thank goodness you and I have Home Ick together..."
Slowly, painfully, the two ghouls shuffled to Home Ick.

"Later!" Kai waved at Motthew and turned to Jewels. "So, should we head to Art Class? Love your claws, by the way."
Kai pointed at the rhinestones glued all over Jewels' claws.
"Hey, how did the ghoul's creepover go? Was it as fun as ours was? Because ours was pretty fun. Even with the power outage."

Melody looked down and brushed her hair behind her ear, "Oh-oh my,"she blushed. Roswell called her beautiful, which was nice to hear from time to time, but he had never kissed her before, let alone in the middle of the hallway. "I must say, you look very shiny,"she smiled, looking up at him, "your traditional dress is much better than mine. I feel so exposed." She held her books close to her again. "This new look isn't so bad and your hair smells like the ocean, so don't worry about them,"Roswell reassured her, "You look wonderful. Clearly you worked on your looks so go on and enjoy it!"She looked down again, her blush continuing to stay on her face, "T-thank you very much,"she outstretched her hand, "but...do you mind taking me to my next class?"she asked with a shy smile.

Jewels lowered her head, tugging her helmet down so Kai couldn't see her blush deeper than ever.
"t.. thank you" she squeaked at his compliment. "p... power outage? oh dear, that sounds dramatic."

"Well, it happens when you have Lin over..." Kai shrugged and went on to describe to Jewels the boo creepover as they walked to their first period class. He told her about the food, fanging out by the pool, the power outage, the bonfire and the stories. He was just getting to Shad's story when they took a turn down the hallway to the Artroom. Kai came to a full stop and tried to look back over the corner...
"...'Mona?" But unfortunately, just then a flash mob full of zombies glutted the hallway with moaning, shuffling bodies on their way to classes, blocking Kai's view of anyone else down the hallway. He turned back to Jewels.
"I could have sworn I just saw......Nah." He shook his head. "Not possible. She's-"
Kai was cut off by the sound of the late bell and the two of them had to file into the Art Classroom.

Rory strolled into Dead Languages working mentally on strategies for this afternoon's Murk Trial against Venus. What would be the best way to lose to her? He could lose his notes...lock himself in the bathroom....or, heck, just show up and surrender to her with a white flag!
That was a good one...Rory fumbled with his book bag so he could pull out his notebook and write it down.

Marceline thumbed through her notes, double-checking her homework before class when she spied Rory enter the classroom. Blush prickled in her cheeks; she hadn't really spoken to him much since he asked her to Tombcoming, and she wasn't sure where that put them. Were they dating now? Was she expected to act a certain way towards him now? She sighed gently, and rose from her seat to greet him.
"Hey, Rory!" She said cheerfully. "I just wanted t'tell you that I've got off work t'day and I'll be at the murk trial practice to cheer you on! Good luck!"
Her stomach turned slightly... was that weird? A little too eager?

"Hey Marceline!" Rory replied, brightly. He shifted his book bag to the other side and had a seat next to her. He paused for a second. Didn't he want to say something to her?
...
Whatever it was, it had completely slipped his mind. He straightened his bow tie. "You look nice. I like your skirt," He remarked. "It reminds me of how absolutely great Venus McFlytrap is, somehow!"

Marceline winced at the sound of Venus' name... could it be that he had a crush on her too? So then, we aren't a couple, she thought...
"Oh, this old thing?" Marceline glanced down at her makeshift skirt, pressing out a few stray folds with the bony palms of her hands. "It's nothin' really, just somethin' I had lyin' around... You look very handsome today, y'self!"
Marceline extended her hand to gently fix Rory's lapel, which had strayed out of place when he had adjusted his bowtie, when she noticed a light dusting of acid green powder on his jacket. With Rory's comment about Venus still fresh on her mind, Marceline immediately identified the powder as Venus' famous Pollens of Persuasion. She bit her bottom lip; could it be that Venus was trying to cheat at the murk trial? That didn't seem like her at all, but then again she hardly knew the ghoul...

"Thanks! Mother helped me pick out my outfit. I couldn't exactly go dressed as her...I guess, at least not until Thursday." Rory rubbed the back of his neck. "So I'm dressed like my father was! OH!"
Rory grabbed a pencil excitedly.
"That's right! I was going to ask you...do you think it would be best if I surrendered at Murk Trial to Venus in person, or just sent a note with a congratulatory gallon of filtered water and fertilizer?"

Marceline's jaw dropped. Surrender?! Now if there was any evidence that Venus was trying to cheat, there it was. She plucked the pencil from his fingertips and looked at him sternly, pointing the sharpened end towards his nose.
"Now where on earth did you get the idea to surrender, Rorrim Bludworth? Cuz I can tell you, it ain't a good one. You're gonna knock that overgrown weed outta the clawditorium and I'm helping you, y'hear?"
It was as if the words had a mind of their own and flew from her lips; Marceline dropped the pencil and stared at him in shock over what she'd just said. There was a tightness in her chest, along with a feeling she'd never really had before... all she knew was that she wanted to see Rory crush Venus McFlytrap in the murk trial; though the part about her being able to help him do it was up for some serious debate...

*Sniff Sniff! Sob!* Vanissha whipped her tears as best she could walking into school, but clearly she's been crying. crying
"Vanissha, dear, is everything alright?" A gloved hand was on her shoulder as she turned to face, Mr. Where, he was everyone's favorite creature. Including Vanissha's and not just because she was related to him.
"I-It's-It's awful! I'd hoped to dress like my mother and borrow a dress from her but mother was too busy resurrecting her movie star career to send one!!" She cried, overly dramatic! "Now it's school spirit week and I have NOTHING to where!! This is the MOST important week of school ever! And not no one will notice ME!"
"If there's a will there's away Vanissha, try and remember that next time you get too emotional. It can happen if you put you're mind to it. Now come with me to the Theater I have an idea that could help you!" He took off running, "Hurry! Or you'll be late for class!"
Gleefully Vanissha gave chase after her uncle, Mr. Where! He kind enough to help her come up with something both freak fabulous and fiercely classic. a costume from West Side Scary, Hat and shades included! Looking similar to her uncle now!
It is a great look! She spun looking every witch way in the mirror, unfortunately she'd missed both bells and was not late to class.
"The bell! I'm late for class, what do I do now!?" she put her hands to her face horrified of detention,
"Hope no one notices." He said with a shrug that only she could see.
What a great help he was! Creatures seldom noticed her and it often drove her mad when she had her hand up first to answer a question and was ignored.
"Thanks again!" Quickly she ran across the halls to Clawculus!
