Junko chuckled, glancing Riyo's way as she commented on being picky. Junko hadn't intended on deviating from the style of her trench coat by much; she had just decided that the coat would look better when it was good as, well, new! And with the coat already in her possession she wouldn't even need Riyo's measurements! Ha! Take that! She looked up from Mitsu's hair only when she heard the rustle of the coat being plopped on her booth, reaching down to take the coat and carefully fold it up and put it away where it would be safe. "That's alright." She said confidently, looking up at Riyo with a smile. You could almost say she was feeling..cocky! She was smug. She was sure she would please the hard to please demoness.
It was then that she noticed that despite taking off her coat Riyo still had a coat on. Why...didn't she just...
...What...
Seiji's kiss to her cheek brought her attention back into focus, her eyes somewhat widened as she turned to him. His answer calmed her and she sighed, giggling and smiling. "How precious! I do so love Hikari~." She smiled, giving Seiji space to socialize while she turned back down to give Mitsu her full attention. She could see she'd made her uncomfortable, and she felt bad. Great. M-maybe if she--ah!
"I-I didn't mean to...oh...that does work, yes." Junko smiled a bit and finally set to work, first fishing a hair tie out of her sleeve to put it around her wrist for easier access, then finding a few hair pins she would be needing to keep what she had in mind firmly in place. She'd never done what she envisioned, but it was worth a try! She braided the two sections together, twisting and wrapping them. This would be tricky! But she was determined, wrapping and twisting her hair in a sort of rope-like pattern. She ended up not even needing the hair tie or the pins, finally sticking the two purple sticks through the bun with a happy hum. It was an easy style, but it looked pretty and complicated. And it was quick to do! If Mitsu wanted she could even teach her how to do it again later.
"Alright~! All set!" She put her hands on her hips and seemed to puff up with pride, looking happy as could be until she smelled something just...awful.
Smoke. And fish guts. And... "Ch-Christof!?" WHAT THE JACK HAPPENED TO HIM?!

Nope, this was definitely not Mistress's booth. Wobbling a bit, the hunchback pressed forward, ready to begin his quest anew if no one was going to stop him and drag him there themselves.

"W-wait! Christof!" Junko hurried around the booth to stop him from leaving, putting a gentle hand on his hunchback as she stepped around him to get a good look at the poor patchwork. Wh-what happened?! "Th..there's a sword in your...and your eye and...blood and...are you okay?!"

The hunchback gave an unintelligible whine, eyes rolling (independently) before it even occurred to him that OH YES to speak he needed that thing... the thing with the thing stuck in his coat pocket and riiiiight. The chalkboard came out and he wobbled further before intently writing out exactly what the problem was:

Feeling Junko's fingers through her hair once again Mitsu sat patiently still as the ghoul twisted strands of hair this way and that. It was hard for the lupine to imagine what was being done with her hair, she had never really had it styled before. After a short while Mitsu felt Junko put the sticks through the hair on her head to hold everything in place.
Her free hand gently reached back to touch the intricate bun on her head feeling the pattern. She bet it looked pretty, Junko had done such a good job on Hel's hair. Tail beginning to wag Mitsu got up from her chair, doing her best to tie her mask back in place to where it wouldn't disturb her new hair style. "Thank you Junko!" The lupine sounded pleased. "I bet it looks....amazing..."
She trailed off a little seeing Christof suddenly show up. Mitsu had only really seen the patchwork at random events and classes here and there but....sweet Sally what had happened to him? He looked like he had gone through the gantlet of pain and campaignage. The poor patchwork was littered in student council paraphernalia and gore.
"I...is he okay?" Mitsu asked looking toward the others around her. The sign he had...she couldn't make out what he had written.

For the most part, while the others spoke, Shun wasn't paying a great deal of attention. They weren't really speaking to him at all, so there was little reason for him to pay much heed or say anything.
However, one shambling form caught his attention. Glancing to the side, he just... kind of stared at the patchwork Igor from fitness. Damn the guy looked like he had gone to hell and back. Burns included. Frowning, he also noticed the array of various things he was carrying with him. Strange...
"He has a knife in his head," he said in response to Mitsu. While something like that probably wouldn't hurt the undead boy for too long, it probably was deterring something in him... like his mental functions for one thing.

Oh, Jack. Oh, Jack. He had a knife in his head. Wh-what was she supposed to do?! His eyes rolled, one going left and the other going right. That..that was not normal, even by Halloween standards. She watched as he began to try to write something and failed at it, frowning down at the chalk board. There was no way she could read this.
"Let's..let's take you to Riley...and Malodore." Malodore would know what to do! Malodore was a doctor!And the best place to find said doctor would probably be Riley's booth, right? She hoped so. Junko carefully put an arm around Christof, turning to Mitsu as she asked if he was okay.
...No...no he wasn't. Shun was right, he had a knife in his head. "I know where we should take him." She turned to Tomoko and Seiji and Riyo. "I'll be right back. I need to make sure Christof is okay." She gave him a careful pat and began to guide him away from her booth toward Riley's. "Come on, Christof."

Riyo half-hoped Junko's confidence would pay off, though she didn't expect it. Most likely it would look fine, but still wouldn't be it's old glorious self... At least, that's what she thought.
The exchange between the ghoul and her boilfriend flew over Riyo's head as she turned her attention to the lupine still sitting patiently in the chair. The feline had thought about saying something to her acquaintance, but figured it could wait until they weren't surrounded by a swarm of people.
And aside from that, Riyo couldn't help but be secretly fascinated by how Junko had styled the wolf ghoul's hair in a matter of minutes. It looked... Very nice. Though obviously, seeing as her blonde hair always hung down straight with no style whatsoever, the idea of such things escaped her.
For a moment, her thoughts wandered to what it would be like to do something with her own hair... Until an odor struck her nose like a crowbar.
"What the..." As her eyes caught sight of a figure slowly... Approaching, her unfinished question was answered. "... He's not supposed to look like that, is he?" No, obviously not considering everybody's mouth was agape at the mere sight of the... Poor soul. And most likely, his writing wasn't supposed to be like that either. "Should... Somebody pull that knife out?"

Oooooh it was that ghoul that had given him that thing with the stuff in that place with the things and she had very pretty hair. He was content to follow her, reaching to try to catch the curling, floating tendrils with an inebriated giggle that confirmed, no, the hunchback was definitely not alright.

Mitsu was concerned seeing Christof in this state. Though she did not know him well she wanted to make sure the poor patchwork was okay. Eyes trailing to Riyo for a moment Mitsu walked up to Shun and tugged on his sleeve. "D..do you think we can follow? To make sure he's okay?"

"There wasn't a knife in his head at Open house," Shun said with a glance towards Riyo. Hearing Mitsu speak again, he glanced to her, pausing as he now was able to see how her hair was. It... was actually pretty nice. Junko did a pretty good job there.
"Sure," he shrugged before glancing at the remaining taiyaki. Thinking briefly, he went ahead and snatched one 'for the road' before nodding to the lupine.
His dark gaze shifted over towards Riyo briefly, not sure if she was going to come as well, before heading towards Riley's booth after Junko.

Looking to the taiyaki as well Mitsu grabbed one to take with her too. Looking to Riyo the lupine held the food for the time. "Did you want to come with us?" She asked before looking to see that Shun was leaving her behind. "A..Ah wait up!" Quickly she trotted after the reaper to follow him to the next booth and to ensure the patchwork was okay.

Oh, yeah! That was the igor from open house, wasn't it? It was almost hard to tell with... That knife in his head.
It looked like everybody was following the spectacle that was the off-kilter patchwork to wherever Junko was leading him.
Well, why the hell not? Riyo was going to leave soon anyways. Might as well see what became of this situation. "Yeah, I'm coming.." She sighed, shoving her hands in her pockets as she brought up the rear of the group.

Another emptied booth, and an increased crowd around Christof. There, ahead, as Barth had suspected, was their final destination. The group had stopped with Christof.
Barth took a moment to rest. Almost there. The table he was leaning against had a variety of cookies, cupcakes, and fishy-looking pastries.
He plucked a fishy taiyaki from the table and neatly bit off the head. The texture of the creamy filling was alright, but the taste...it wasn't foul. A little sharp, certainly. And the smell was strongly...scream pea? It also had a strong aftertaste, and made his throat burn.
He wasn't picky. He finished the fish, sucking a mixture of lotion, fish slime, and the breaded crust from his claws. He straightened his cravat.
Then he headed to Riley's booth.

Tomoko was now alone at the booth, trying to not look too concerned over everything that had just happened, peering off after Christof as Junko lead him off to Riley's booth. Well..that wouldn't be bad, right? Then Junko could talk about that helping-out thing that Sammy had been suggesting, right? Right?
Right right?
Ohhh man...
Tomoko anxiously picked up another Taiyaki, hoping this one wasn't glitter filled. She had much better of a food option than Barth had in his lotion-flavored noms, peeling open her own Taiyaki before turning it over...
...
...
Rice.
It wasn't even cooked rice.
Tomoko frowned and put it back on the table, away from any grabbing hands.
