"Er, Jack-B-Nimble is what I've been called. B like the letter, most people call me Jack, or Jack-B." He idly introduced.The more, the merrier it seemed for Jack and his growing little brood - two ghouls, a new boil, and a cat meant that there were enough people around that he felt almost sheltered by the attention. Relaxing just a little as he listened to Belladonna, he subconsciously started nodding every so often when she was telling her tale, his own fluffy end of his tail lightly flicking at the egde of her grasp idly at times.
"It wasn't a very comfortable Train, indeed." he muttered, looking around. He didn't mind the grasp she had over his tail, as it made her calm down ever so slightly, which is what he wished for. "During the time I contracted a temporarily ability to feel out things - like the adverse reactions some people had. I feel I should have stayed sitting down the whole time I was there." he murmured, feeling the little reaper lean back, calming down a little against his larger form, a calm grin stretching across his face.
When the demon sauntered her way over the little group, he lidded his eyes up to her, feeling the gaze linger on him for a moment, the question reaching him. Giving a light shrug, not to disrupt Belladonna in her story, he nodded a hello to her. "We're just recanting what happened the last time dear-Belladonna and I were placed on this train. Not a very fun story at all, but I digress. It seems calmer feeling this time around." he murmured out to her, blinking lightly before turning back, only to be caught up in a one armed hug by said Belladonna, his glowing glance flickering down to her momentarily in a bit of confusion, but a light chortle rumbling through his throat a moment later. "Yes, the closer the better, the more, the merrier."
Zwei, on the other hand, was more than content to soak in the praise and the attention, a soft rumbling purr erupted from his chest as he closed his eyes a little, giving off the feeling of a cat who was in his element.

Igneous made her way to her assigned car with some trepidation she hoped that there was someone on there that she knew! when she had signed up she didnt know that they were going to split them into groups like this! Her heart fell when she saw the students inside. she didn't really know any of them. She has seen a few in passing and had spoken to the council member Rain once at the party, but that was it. This was going to be a long ride.

((I just wanted to formally announce that we will start the Battleship game at 6:30pm EST if there's no problem with the time. If this time conflicts with anyone, let me know. I understand that not everyone will make it but I'd like to find a time that's convenient for the majority.))

"U-uhm, that would be fine," Tsetsiliya replied to Belladonna. She didn't have much time to muse on the nickname she had just been given other than for a blush to spread across her cheeks. The ghoul immediately wound into her tale, the boil at her side (Jack, he said his name was?) adding his two pumpkin seeds every now and then.
.. This is what happened on trains.. ?! Her insides fluttered nervously, fingers fiddling with her belt moreso than ever. If this is what happened, then why had she come? Now she knew why Belladonna had seemed so nervous.
"I.. I am glad that you are all very much alright after that," she managed to croak out with a dry throat. But now she felt a lingering wariness, and glanced towards Julien. "Then p-perhaps it would be best to make sure we stay in a pair, yes?" She didn't want to assume and would rather leave the decision up to Julien should things come down to it.
At the tail end of the story, a demon had joined their group. Tsetsiliya's eyes looked up at the newcomer and noticed the confidence in her stance, her attitude. Jack was the first to address her, saying that the ride felt a lot calmer this time around, the poludnica could only nod shakily, as though trying to assure herself that that wouldn't be happening again this time around.

She couldn't help but listen to the conversation going on and she did not like what she heard about the other train. Surely this trip would be.. safe? She didn't want anything bad to happen while the students where her responsibility.
The boils and ghouls on her train seemed really nice though she was a little put off by the headless ghoul. She had seen many students at Amityville, each one different from the next. She even met a nice girl with her limbs on backwards but headless? How did she manage to eat brains? Rain would be so distraught if she ever lost her head. Reflexively, she brought her hands up to make sure her head was still firmly attached.
She went to make another round down the aisle. She was half way through the car when she tripped and fell flat on her face. Had she forgotten to tie her shoes again? She pushed herself up, mumbled that she was okay and continued walking down the aisle.

Hedera was late, and she knew it. There were-how many people on the train? At least seven others. She then felt somewhat relieved, as speaking up was a lot less required when there were other people around.
Also, most of them were at least three inches taller, and that meant that they wouldn't look at her. She didn't like being the center of attention...or any attention, really.
Keeping her head down and attempting to be as quiet as possible, the avarice demon shuffled onto the train, attempting to find a seat with moderate success.
Oh-someone had dropped something! The little female kneeled down to pick up whatever had dropped out of the...she took a second to look at the girl...undead's pocket. As she picked up the item, Hedera-Rose started moving towards Rain, figuring she'd give it back. It wasn't her thing to have. [@Meeki: I won't be here at 6:30 PM EST, sorry. D:]

((For those that can't make the time, I'm going to go ahead and allow them to post a guess after the game, provided that the ships haven't all been sunk by that point.
The only problem is that I may not be around to announce of the guess is a hit or a miss, so you may have to find out in the morning? But it will give those that have to work, etc, a chance to get a guess in if the game isn't over.
Also, if the game goes well and you guys would like another, I can run the next battleship game during the weekend, at like 11pm EST or even midnight? ))

Rain smiled as Hedera approached. "Welcome to the Krumm car," she greeted, taking in the ghouls appearance. Demons made her nervous because they often looked down on undeads, especially zombies. The ghoul seemed to be holding something too. She leaned over to take a closer look. "Oh, you have a Peppermint Point! Did it fall out of my pocket?" She went through her pockets and indeed one was missing. The demon.. was returning it to her? A zombie? She was almost speechless. "Wow, that's so nice of you. I think most others would have just kept it, you know? In fact, why don't you keep it? One good deed for another?" Rain was positively beaming at this point. A demon was nice to her! A DEMON WAS NICE TO HEEEEEEEEER!

"A-ah, thank you," the little demon stuttered, hesitantly taking the Peppermint Point and placing it in her jacket pocket. Social interaction typically wasn't anything Hedera did unless she was forced to do so, and it meant that she didn't really share her race's disdain for undead. Or, really, any disdain for anything.
With a small smile, she turned to go find a seat. Well, Rain had been nice to her, and she liked that. So many family members often were not, so the fact that the other ghoul hadn't been mean? That meant a lot more to her than the fact that she had just talked to an undead. Oh, there was an open seat right next to...hmmm. A gargoyle? "Excuse me," the sloth demon mumbled quietly to Igneous, "um...could I sit here?"

Running from one car to another, Mei huffed a sigh of relief, relieved to see she had finally found her assigned area of the train. Glancing about the car, she looked for an open seat, and quickly snatched it up before someone else got the chance. Once again, she had no idea who any of these students were, so she was sure it would be a quiet ride for her. A perfect chance to catch up on loss reading time in her opinion.
Before getting into any light reading, however, she decided to remain attentive to the actions happening around her and the students who boarded. She was going to have to learn peoples names one way or another. She might at as well start hear by listening to everyone's introductions, if there was any at all.
I would like to sink your Battleship!
(( Sorry for being late. Super busy. OTL ))

((Would you guys be okay if the time was changed to 8:30 or 9:00 EST for the game? There's a few people that are having trouble with the 6:30 time. ))
