Chuppi wasn't sure what to do now that's she'd won. . . and be won in return. She honestly had not expected Tybalt to bid on her in response (she'd handed him her seeds because she didn't know what else to do) so now everything was in a blur and the Chupacabra was quite unhappy. She didn't know if she should ask Tybalt to meet her at the dance, seeing as she was a member of the StuCon and should help set it up since it was StuCon run, or should she wait and have him take her there? Eventually though she knew that she would end up meeting him there because she had her duties, but that all settled at the back of her mind when the most important factor came into the light.
Chuppi needed a dress for the event. Not the one she'd worn at the auction - that was poor form to wear the same thing - but an honest to goodness new dress. The monster's face paled at the thought of having to find something that worked, and soon she found herself pacing back and forth out in the common area, just as she normally would. Her little mind was trying to figure out what she needed to do, whom she should talk to, and how much time she had to do it. In the end nothing came to mind and she crossed her arms over her chest, exhaling deeply.
She didn't know anyone's phone number in order to call them, not to mention she didn't have a phone of her own. This was troublesome.

She had just finished her dress for the dance that was to come; now that Jericho was her date though, she doubt it would come in handy... He didn't look like a dancing sort of dragon. In fact, he only looked willing (to be her partner) after she mentioned bringing a DS to trade Pokeman on. While she was a tad disappointed, Amrita was the one who arranged this "date" for her, and she felt like she should make the best of it and just enjoy herself on Scarentine with friends.
Beside, she was still happy from willing Sepheran and setting him up with Tess! Nothing can ruin her good mood! Nothing!
Walking into the common area, she half expected it to be empty as students prepare themselves for the dance. If she hadn't finished her dress, she would be locked up in her room as well. Thus, she was surprised to see Chuppi pacing to and fro, as if worried about something... The preparations for the dance maybe? She sometimes forget that the small, adorable Monster is actually the Student Council's VP.
"Chuppi~" She smiled, walking towards the ghoul, wrapping her in a hug, "You look worried..." Yup, stating the obvious was a good way to get people to tell her things. Probably.

The Chupacabra had been quite lost in her thoughts and her pacing that she hadn't heard her friend approach, and it wasn't until she felt the arms come around her small frame that she even realized that someone was there. At first she'd bristled just a bit, it was such a natural reaction, but she'd quickly relaxed at the sound of the voice and the question. Thankfully she hadn't done anything to make her quills stand up and poke Lizzy!
"Lizzy. I. . . I'm just a little nervous, is all."
Chuppi's face flushed with a mixture of happiness at seeing her friend and embarrassment at having to admit that she was in a bit of a quandary. The Chupacabra was by no means girly (she didn't even like to wear clothing all that much) but she knew that if she was going to go to the dance she needed to look nice. Not just for Tybalt, she told herself, but to show others that it could be done. Yes, for the others. Not just for Tybalt.
"I am...thinking of what to wear for the dance. I don't know if I look good in anything, because of my quills. They make it hard."

"There is no such thing as a girl who don't look good. You just have to know what suits you..." She took a step back from Chuppi and walked to look at her from the front, her head tilted, fingers on her chin, a thoughtful look on her face. Tapping a finger on her chin, a smile slowly spread across her face, "You should come to my room. I'm sure we can find something you like!."
Of course, she would have to make a few modifications... Like trimming the edge of the dress and making it shorter and making the corset larger. Other than that though, she was sure Chuppi would look darling in the correct dress!

"...would you really?"
Chuppi didn't mean to sound so incredulous at the offer for help in getting herself dressed for the party, it was just that she didn't expect someone to think that getting her into something other than what she was wearing would be easy. She didn't exactly have a nice body shape and her overall size made it difficult to find anything that would look good on her. She didn't even want to think about the fact that she'd gained some extra weight during her hiatus from the school and much of life.
"And are you sure there are no girls who can't look good? I am not pretty and looking more like a human-face such as you are. There are not many girls here who look as I do - you are all much prettier. I wish I had the confidence that you do."
Chuppi really hadn't had a problem with her self-esteem until she started noticing the pretty girls walking around the school and the boys fawning all over them. It wasn't as though she wanted their attention and affection all to her self, quite the opposite, but seeing as she was getting older and she did have a crush she wanted to know what it would be like to have someone tell her she was pretty or beautiful. There was only so much a person could handle being called "adorable" or "cute" when such words were usually reserved for a young child or a minipet.

"Nobody called me 'pretty' before I hit 15, really... That's when my species decide I'm no longer a child." Her eyes widened as she blushed at the sort of compliment, holding out a hand for her friend to take as she smiled; not that she know what the monster was thinking about, but she had been guilty of labeling her as 'cute'.
"And I'm sure... I've never seen a girl I view as being ugly before, after all... And Chuppi, you have a nice, comfortable-looking face. I'm sure someone will call you pretty as you mature. No, I'm sure someone will call you pretty at the dance party." She seemed pretty confident as she said that, a grin on her face.

Chuppi took the hand that was offered to her without any second thought, completely unaware that it was motions like that which made her look childish and young, but she didn't care even if she did have a small inkling. She liked holding Lizzy's hand, it was warm and comforting, and she knew that holding hands was a strong sign of affection between friends. Maybe one day a boy would like to hold her hand, but such thoughts were few and far between in her mind.
"We mature very quickly, my species that is. I am just a runt and am delayed, that is why I look like this. Mis hermanos, my brothers, are all older than me and already are moving to have familia of their own. I do not think I am ready to be breeding."
It was funny to be speaking like that, but Chuppi's who knowledge of herself included being an animal-like monster and thus they didn't think of things in terms of sex or puberty. It was about when they became ready for breeding and, as far as Chuppi could tell based on her underdeveloped body, she was nowhere near ready.
"But what do you mean 'comfortable-looking face'? Does that mean something? Like my face is good to sit on?"

"Oh? Maybe you'll mature when I did then - at 15." Lizzy nodded, leading Chuppi in the direction of the Demon Dorms as she glanced at the ghoul; it was difficult to believe that Chuppi was a 'runt'. Sure, she was rather short, but the Demoness had assumed that it was normal for her species. 'Familia' sounded like 'family' and she assumed it as such; eyes widened slightly as she processed the information.
"Really? Taking mates at so young an age?" She paused momentarily; she was going on 17... Which really wasn't near the mating age for her species, really. At Chuppi's comment, however, she couldn't help but let out a giggle. Shaking her head, her eyes settled on the monster, "No! I mean the more I look at you, the better you look. I was - still am at times - used to judging others by their physical appearance to some extend due to, ah, my mother's profession... But the more I look at you, the easier you are on the eyes! That's why I'm sure you'll mature to be pretty~"

"We mate young, yes. Our life span is not very long, I think. I have never met older Chupacabras, but that is because mi padre says they are smart and hide."
It was weird that Chuppi didn't know how long her kind lived, but she supposed it wasn't that important. She was in Halloween now and was in a different shape, so much of her life had already changed. None of the Chupacabras at home spoke English, that much she knew, and none of them really had hair or could stand on their hind legs without the aid of their tail. And - of course - none of them went to school and made friends with demons.
"So when you first saw me you thought I was ugly but now I am comfortable on your eyes? How you say phrases is weird."
The monster didn't exactly sound offended but then again she didn't sound contented either. Instead she just kept her sentence at that and continued to walk with Lizzy towards the Demon dorms, her eyes cast down. She didn't know how long it would take before she would reach maturity, but she was also very young. She hated that she had to think of things like this now and she wondered if it was because of the holiday season that was coming up.

"I see... That explains it," She replied, although she looked mildly horrified at what Chuppi had to say next. It was difficult to explain what she meant, but she had never meant it that way! Shaking her head in a silent protest, Lizzy frowned, "No... I told you that I had yet to see a ugly ghoul, yes? You are not ugly - never was. You just have the sort of face that looks better and better after I got to know you..."
Wait, there was a term for it!
"Ah, inner beauty? It shines through..." She felt like that was all she had to offer as she gave Chuppi's hand a gentle squeeze, walking up the path leading to the Demon dorms; she didn't like silence, but it was probably for the best... Through the gate, the heavy door, up a flight of stairs... And then she stopped in front of her room. There were sounds coming from behind the door - a soft whine being the most prominent.
"My Minipet can be rather needy..." She sighed softly, turning the handle as she flung the door open, revealing a rather large room (if not a little messy with paper filled with sketches scattered about the room) complete with a bathroom. The most eye-catching feature had to be the walk-in wardrobe though. Gesturing for Chuppi to enter, she smiled sheepishly, "So if he tries to cuddle up, just cuddle back or he might start whining."

"Inner beauty? If you say it's so."
There wasn't any more room to talk about things as the pair picked up their pace and soon Chuppi found herself inside Lizzy's room. She made her way around it, slowly, and did her best to try to avoid whatever that whining sound was. There were only a few minipets that Chuppi was fond of, namely her own, and anything else ran the risk of being hurt by her (accidentally).
The monster didn't mind the room's stage, hers was certainly no better considering she slept in a closet so Chuppi just stood there and wondered what she was supposed to be doing now that she'd entered inside.
"Am I to be doing something?"

Quote: The only neat part of her room is the wardrobe - or rather, what's inside her wardrobe. Upon opening it, one could see that it had been enchanted to be bigger on the inside than its appearance on the outside. It was practically a walk-in wardrobe, a paradise for any fashion lover. Clothing was categorized and hung according to one of three different racks - tops on the left side, bottoms on the right side, and dresses on the front. Shoe boxes containing covered shoes and slippers line the floor of the wardrobe, placed to lean against the wall, while boots (the footwear of her choice) sit on top of the show boxes.
Transparent displays at the only two corners of the wardrobe hold her accessories, from necklaces and bracelets to headbands and rings. On the back of the doors of the wardrobe are two full-length mirrors, allowing the wardrobe to double as a changing room - indeed, it could easily be a clothing store by itself. "Here!" She waved Chuppi over to the rather prominent wardrobe before opening it. Then, she walked all the way in, to the other end of the wardrobe, where her dresses were kept. While it was true that Chuppi would be unable to fit into the dresses she had hung up on the rack, she did have some older dresses; to Lizzy, 'tossing things out' was non-existent. If one dug deep and long enough, it would probably be possible to find the clothes she had never worn for one reason or another... Clothes that might fit Chuppi with some quick altering.
"What color do you like?" She asked, reaching for a box hidden behind all the dresses she had up before pulling it out and removing the cover, digging through its contents, "Pink, black, blue, green, purple, brown..." Dresses with elastic corsets - she knew they would come in handy one day!

"Mi color favorito es morado. My favorite color is purple. I do not like bright though, it makes me eyes hurt and stand out more."
Chuppi was fond of the more dusky colors, as her wardrobe attested, and she stayed standing outside the little case waiting for Lizzy to come back. She certainly wasn't going to venture in to a place she didn't know anything about and risk the chance of getting hurt - that was just silly. Plus if Lizzy wanted to show her something then older girl would come back out and show her - no need to go in and cause trouble.
"Is there anything you need me to do? Should I take my clothings off?"

"So... Sort of a duller shade of purple then..." She mumbled to herself as she shifted through the contents of the box, feeling rather glad that she was never into bright shades herself; it made searching for the perfect dress that much easier! Besides, she had to find something that Chuppi would be able to wear without tearing - so something without sleeves might help.
"You can take your clothing off, if you don't mind, uh, me being around, that is," She called out; in the past, her ghoulfriends and her changed together during sleepovers anyway, before she enrolled in the school... It wasn't really that much of a deal to her although there were always some who were shy and would rather change behind the closed doors of the bathroom.
Two more boxes and a drawer later, Lizzy finally walked out of the wardrobe, a dull purple strapless dress draped over her arm. Laying it out on her bed, it became obvious that it was too long for Chuppi, although the corset was made of an elastic material that would probably fit the ghoul. She smiled, gesturing at the dress, "You can try putting that on - I need to get my sewing pins..." She started to make her way towards her desk.

"Okay, understood. and no worries for my clothing, I am a monster. This form is not my own, I have no shame for it."
The monster didn't waste much time in getting out of Lizzy's way and looking over the pretty object she had in her hands - the purple color something Chuppi certainly liked. While she had said that she didn't mind getting undressed in front of Lizzy she did have some modest that at least caused her to turn her back while taking her clothing off, the elastic dress sliding on and quickly being pierced with the sharp quills. Chuppi frowned with embarrassment and unhappiness at the noises, knowing she was ruining something that didn't belong to her. She stopped in the efforts of pulling it up any further, her shoulders drooping.
"I. . .I didn't mean to tear it right off. I keep forgetting how sharp my quills are."
