Welcome to Gaia! ::

Giving one last wave to Hel Mitsu followed Shun in the mean time so they could talk.

"Not a student either really," Mmur said, pulling over a chair and perching gingerly on its edge for the benefit of his passengers. "Just a clansman of Famine. A student of the world." He didn't say anything about the "Lost" clan or bring up the fact that Halloween was technically his home now, mostly because a very large part of him was still in denial about all of that. "It is a pleasure to meet you as well, Evelyne-Aglaya Yeva Verochka," he managed, only fumbling with the tail end of her name as he ran out of breath with which to say it.

He turned his head to peek at the rest of the room again as she continued, only noticing the large number of paired teenagers now that they had been pointed out to him. "I see..." he replied. "Well, I certainly hope that you and your friend can still—" Mmur's smile, which had temporarily dimmed as the ghoul spoke, came back in full force as her escort arrived. The horseman rose to his feet and nudged the chair he had just vacated toward the quiet boil.

"Yes, hello! Evelyne-Aglaya Yeva Verochka has moths," he said, as if that explained his presence. "It is wonderful to meet you as well, Joachim. Now you can be a couple!"

Damien learned a few things on the day of the prom. the self awareness that he was a sappy runt for romance and tiny ghouls with huge eyes. So sappy that Melas and phos were far too busy rolling their non existant eyes and making gagging noises at demi and his plans for the evening. one of which should have not been digging up all the flowers he had planted out back and falling into a giant hole. The yelp for help went by unnoticed with all the prom planning going on, and sitting in a hole with his formerly cleaned and pressed tux soiled and crumpled in its laundry bag.

The best start ever. it took a lot of time, and pleading for the gnomes to make a gnome ladder in exchange for all the bacon in his fridge but the escape from the pit of prom doom was complete. with a sigh of relief and also a look of dismay at the cloth, he almost wanted to throw a fit right on the dorm lawn. it was ever so tempting to just run about on all fours and scream obscenities at his unlucky ways. course looking like a canine would just make it seem he was just barking at things.

No it was not going to happen, not after all the weeks of planning and Xiu actually waiting for him there. WAITING. With a defiant shake of his head, there was only so much time left. he had to rush to a tailor and get it fixed.

There was much complaining in the tailors shop. screaming about prom and late fees and the hellhound having to pay a crapton of seeds, but it his suit was getting repaired. all the while, he was pacing back and forth waiting for the bundle of joy to arrive. and it did, with the demon tailor practically throwing it in his face, but it was ready, that was what mattered. stripping in front of the tailor to put in on and rushing from there to the event might have been a bad idea, but at least the demon was nice enough to put some seeds back in his pocket because of it.

After a painful and stressful day Damien was glad to finally be able to enjoy the night. Even if he did get there late, but he was fashionably late, that was his excuse and he was going to stick with it.

He could only hope the baku was still here and not in the clutches of some greasy haired ghoulinizer.

...........................................nah, no way.

Stumbling away from the photo booth with the afterimages of the flash still blurring his eyesight, Alex very soon found himself back in the main area with Yin by his side. He had another look around, eyes now searching for a particular ghoul whom he felt he owed a bit of an apology to for his earlier actions. "Hm? Oh, yes, I'm having a great time!" He was smiling broadly, and certainly looked happy enough, though the smile faltered a bit, and a small look of concern might have crossed his face, or at least, the part of his face that was still visible.

"Are you? Having fun I mean?" He hoped so, since the whole point was for the two of them to be able to go somewhere together and both enjoy themselves. No stress, no hunters, no dying.

He had let his eyes wander a bit around the room, and he finally spotted Mei on the dance floor, though he wasn't sure what she was doing was really called dancing. Mind you, the music was fairly awful, so perhaps that was just the best she could do with what she had to work with. He turned his gaze back towards Yin, leaning in slightly to be heard better as he leaned down towards him. "I'm going to go and talk to Mei for a little bit and maybe ask her if she'd like to dance." Yin had said it would be alright for Alex to dance with other people, and now seemed like a good opportunity. However, he didn't really want to just leave Yin alone.

"Hey, isn't that Xiu over there with..." Nope, Alexander had no idea who Xiu was currently talking to, but in any case, he knew Yin would probably be more comfortable around somebody he trusted. "...I dunno, somebody..." Smooth.

"Maybe you could go and say hi?" He suggested. "And I'll probably just be a few minutes, anyways."

Xiu might have been a little flattered had this not been Lou. Instead, he only received another suspicious look for his compliment, followed by an exasperated sigh. Of course the vampire wasn't behaving--why would she even ask something with such an obvious answer?

Xiu had intended on grabbing her shoes, making up an excuse, and escaping from the vampire. Unfortunately, he threw a wrench into her whole plan when he suddenly transformed--kind of cool, really--and reformed...right in front of her shoes. Seeing this, she crossed her arms, looking unsurprised when he bent down to pick up her heels.

Sigh.

Trotting towards him, she held out both of her hands in an expectant manner. "Thank you, Lou. Now if you'd hand them to me, please?"

"you know. I do love a good pair of shoes." Instead of handing them back, Lou held them over his head and admired them like expensive jewelry. "You can tell a lot about a woman just by looking at these. They can make or break an outfit." Looking back down at the baku, he smiled. "Maybe I'll tell you what your shoes say about you... If you dance with me." There was his game. That was what he wanted.

As Seiji approached Junko tilted her head into the kiss with a smile, making a happy little noise and moving to slip her arms around his middle while he explained his new plan. A picture? They hadn't done that during Scarentine's...which she kind of regretted.

Okay she regretted it a lot.

"Okay, sure! Let's--EEEE!" She squeaked as she was suddenly lifted, eyes wide as she flailed to cling to the boil. H-how the..?! But her dress was so...and he..and...she...! How..?! Her hair curled around his shoulders, lifting her head to try and peek around him with the angle he had her held at. "Seiji!" Junko laughed, playfully kicking her feet. "Come oooon! Put me down I can waaaaalk~!" Sure, she was resigned to her fate, but she wasn't going down without a fight! Even if said fight was just a joke.

DANCE MAGIC DANCE

And Eisheth danced some traditional famine dance, which actually looked like this:



or sometimes like this:



She was happy to pass the awkward moment, and she was even more happy Mei was enjoying herself again.
