Sally tilted her head. She didn't really understand what she was saying, but nodded anyway. She'd seen Rory around, once or twice. She thought maybe the mirrorverse was sort of like the 4th dimension. Just... different. Quote: "Heh, anyway. Are you ghouls as hexcited as I am for the dance? Who are y'all goin' with?" Sally shook her head "I do not have a date." she said.

"T... the dance.." Oh yes, she'd quite lost track, so fixated on campaigning. "Felix Faun asked me." She seemed a little perplexed. "It's odd, I mean.. I barelyknowhim.. " She smiled softly, a little more at ease now the topic of conversation had changed. "He's kinda cute.. " She flushed. "But... I dunno, unexpected." Still, it was nice to have a date at last. She hadn't liked the idea of going alone.

She tired not to give anything away. But she smiled.
"Ok ok with going stag. I mean I've never had a date for a dance so, it's not really a problem for me. I still get to dance, and fang out with my beaties."
One beastie in particular... But she dared not to say who.

"Nothin' wrong with goin' stag, Sally! Means you're not obl'gated to dance with just one boo... you can dance with all'a them if you want!" Marceline giggled.
"I feel like the whole school knows that Rory asked me... why, he was so hexcited that I said yes that he jumped on top of a die-ner table and shouted it!"
Marceline paused, remembering that day... with the entire die-ner screaming "Yes yes yes!!!" along with Rory. Part of her wanted to scream with them, thrilled that the sweetest boo in school asked her to Tombcoming; meanwhile the other part wanted to slide under the table and hide. They'd gone on several "dates" together since then, but something troubled Marceline...
"Hey ghouls... can I ask y'all something?" She winced.

"Rory seems nice." Jewels smiled. "He's so... shiny and polite... and shiny." She nodded. "What is it?"

"Well... It's kinda, embarrassing..." Marceline took off her foam finger and wrung her bony hands together. "I mean t'say... I've never gone out with a boo before, so I don't know how these things work... but if you're goin' out with a boo and you... never kiss... does that mean y'all aren't goin' out?"
She could feel her stomach twisting into intricate knots... what a stupid question to ask!

Jewels considered the question, mulling it over quietly while she folded and unfolded her claws.
"Well... " She began slowly. ."I think.. " She hadn't dated a guy before either, though she'd watched her best friend endure a steady parade of heartbreak. "Going slow isn't neccisarily a bad thing. I mean, if the time isn't right... but when it is.. " She went a little misty eyed. "You want your first kiss to be just perfect." Yes, a nice boo walking you to your door. You start to say goodbye, the light of the magma tunnels illuminates the scene. He leans in. She sighed to herself. A nice chimera boo... she daydreamed.

Tori couldn't' help but arch her brows. Kissing!?
"Nono! that's not what it means!" she said that like she was an expert or soothing when the truth was... she'd never gone out with a boo long enough to kiss them. They were always friends..
"Um well I mean... maybe you should wait.. like for you both to be ready, and make sure that it comes naturally to both of you."
She put two fingers together, closer and close to touch, to signal a kiss.
"it should be like a magnetic attraction that could can't pull away from. You'll know when you're ready."

Marceline sighed, relieved.
"Well, that makes me feel a bit better... I mean, it's not like there haven't been moments that it felt almost right... it's usually right when we're sayin' goodbye, though. And his mother's very strict about his curfew, and when she wants him home... Poof! There he goes." She snapped her fingers for emphasis.
"I just hope that he doesn't vanish when that 'right moment' comes along..." Marceline's eyes glazed over as she envisioned spinning around on the dance floor with Rory, gazing into his violet eyes as the dance blurred away into soft billowy clouds...

Sally tilted her head as she listened to them. She grew more confused as they talked. Attraction? Kissing? Just dating confused her. What was it that made them all act this way? It intrigued her. She listened closer. Maybe she could find someone like that, like they have. Despite her lack of a face and most normal emotions.

*Snap Snap!*
"Hey Ghoul you with us?" She giggles.
"You're heads in the clouds."

Marceline jolted back into reality as Tori snapped her claws. She sighed, blushing a bit.
"Sorry about that... heh. Anyway, speakin'a Rory, where is he? The pep rally is about to start!"
She snatched up her foam finger and slipped it on over her hand.

"Anyway, bro. It's like I was saying..." JD walked into the grymnasium alongside Dashner Hawke, talking National Casketball Association stats. "With Demon Gorriliams as point guard, the Croaklyn Toads are a hoof-in for the Final Four! No contest! They're gonna sweep the court against Gorelando, man. I don't know why you think they even stand a chance."
JD had barely done a thing to campaign for Tombcoming, aside from posting hextra-large posters of his headshot all over the school. He was hoping he could coast on his good looks to be crowned, but seeing how the competition stacked up against him gave him a pang of nervousness... Even if he didn't win, he was certain he had the hottest ghoul in school as his date... aside from that one fire elemental ghoul...
And speaking of his date, Vanissha's hard-core practice schedule had limited the amount of time they were able to spend together... and he was really starting to miss her! As Dashner replied, JD's eyes scanned the grymnasium seats for her...

"C'mon, bro... Gorelando's got the spirits! .. Literally. Half of them are ghosts," he said, chuckling at his joke. "Besides, you have to admit, they've got good technique."
He saw Marceline and immediately looked away as their eyes met. He shook his head. Still awkward, eh. He hadn't talked to her lately, but he really wanted that to change. He was just waiting the opportunity.
