Tahki had left her skellphone in the cafeteria again. She was sure she did at least thats where she remembered leaving it. Well the gryphon could hope right? Replacing such a contraption was no big deal but trying to find all her contacts, err , the few contacts she had was always a pain. Point blank, Tahki was some one that should never be trusted with a phone. Not that she ever used it much except to maybe play games on it.

Socializing, a ghouls Tahkis worst enemy.

So now the gryphon found her self crawling on the dirty cafeteria floor in search of a phone that could very well have been taken by this point of time. Still, Tahki crawled. No one else was here to see after all. Being on all fours felt more natural to Tahki any how. She was naturally a quad.


Huni
Petro had just finished one of his usual runs. It wasn't the first he had that day nor would it be his last but he was certainly in the mood for something to eat. He did need to recharge his energy and while he could just as easily make do with one of the bunnywunnys he'd caught, he was within the cafeteria's proximity. He figured, he might as well grab a quick bite there before heading to his next class. He was prepared to wait in line should there be one.

He wasn't, however, prepared to find someone crawling on the floor doing Jack-knows-what, let alone a ghoul. A familiar ghoul for that matter. Where had he seen that particular coloring before? Well, wherever it was, she looked like she might be in need of some help. The tikbalang got down on his knees and into a careful crawl until he was beside the ghoul, "Y' need any help there?" he asked.


Chobi
Tahki hadn't noticed the boil that had entered the cafeteria at first. She was to fixed on finding her damn skellphone to really be paying attention to her surroundings. That was until she heard a voice beside her and literally jumped as if an air bag had gone off underneith her.

"EEEE!!" She squeaked at the boil. Cold sweat was starting to fall on her face and her golden eyes darted back and forth before she turned her head to see Pedro. Tahki knew this boil but she didn't really personally KNOW him. It had been a long while since the christmas trip.

"Uhhh..." She was now sitting on her knees facing him and adjusting her headphones out of nervous habbit. "Ummm....." Words. They weren't forming. They felt as if they had been lodged in the back of her throat never to see the light of day.


Huni
In any comedic situation, the poor ghoul's startled reaction would have been met with an equally startled cry from the monster boil. But as this was Petro, who did not like the idea of making any ghoul uncomfortable or worse upset, the only expression on his face was one of concern and apology. He opted to mirror her movement, raising himself up until he too was sitting his heels, brown eyes staring pointedly at her, while waiting for her to answer him.

Or maybe not.

"Hey, ain't we in the same group during the raid on Christmas Town?" he prompted, recognizing the headphones since she had been in her real form at the time. "Ain't seen y' around campus since I got enrolled," he offered her a friendly grin, his hands resting on his bare legs, shoulders squared back in a show of openness. "And uh, sorry, didn't mean to startle y'." He added as a hand of his rose to rub the back of his neck.


Chobi
"N-no no no no no no its ummm.." What was with her over use of um? Tahki shly looked over to the side for some time before focusing her eyes back on the boil. "Christmas..... OH YEAH! " Tahki nodded now remembering the boil. He'd been on her team and been very helpful to everyone in their group.

"Oh. Im being very rude. My names Tahki.... Uhhh.. " She looked off again her brows striking a concerned expression. "Im actually... Uhhh.. looking for my skellphone... you wouldn't happen to have seen it would you?"


Huni
"Naw, 's my fault for not making enough noise to let y' know I was here," Petro insisted, "Ah, so that was y'! 'M Tro, can't right remember if I ever got to telling y' and the other Oblenas to call me that." His tone was cheerful as he forgot about his hunger. He was just in here for a snack and not a full-blown meal after all. Guess this just meant he'd be eating more of his bunnywunny stash than originally intended.

When she asked if he'd seen her skellphone, the horse boil had to shake his head, sadly admitting he hadn't. "What's it look like?" he asked, suddenly getting back down on all fours to search for the missing gadget. To him, that she'd even asked if he'd seen it was invitation enough for him to start helping her in her search.


Chobi
Tahki felt bad for not remembering the boils name but was glad he offered it up so she didn't have to ask for it. She made a point to remember his name by repeating it in her head several times. Petro Petro Petro Petro

And the boil was down on his knees helping her before Tahki could even describe the contraption. It made her happy that some one cared but it also made a ping in her heart pull that she was troubling some one else with her own bothers.

"Uhhh well uhhhh.." Tahki inwardly flailed, "The -uh- the skellphones a newer model. Its gold like my headphones and has a key chain of... well.. ummm.. a ... uhhh..." Did she dare say she actually had a my little scare pony key chain? It was childish, Tahki knew, but she had kept it on her phone any way. "Its ... got a key keychain on it.." The gryphon opted not to describe the key chain after all.


Huni
Tahki needn't worry about troubling Petro. The horse boil took it upon himself to help any one in need, especially when they were ghouls. Not that he thought they weren't capable of doing things for themselves, really nothing could be further from the truth. If anything, it was an honor for him to be allowed to help a ghoul.

"Gold with a keychain, got it," Petro repeated, keeping a keen eye out for any such device. He never thought the cafeteria was so big before until now. Then again, he hardly spent time inside the building, preferring to eat outside. "When'd y' realize y' didn't have it?" he suddenly asked. It was quite possible some of the cleaning gnomes had gotten to it if some time had already passed. But if they did and if they wouldn't give Tahki her phone back, Tro wasn't above to introducing his fists to their faces.


Chobi
The gryphon got down on all fours again and started to crawl on the ground keeping a keen eye out. She couldn't sit about and watch Petro do all the work that would have been very rude.

"Oh... I had it this morning and I was playing this game and then..." Uh oh. A passing look of horror came across the young gryphons face.

"OH-OH NOOO!!!!" She struck a pose similiar to a certain painting and a certain movie character struck, "I.. I THREW IT OUT WITH MY TRAY!!! Oh no no no no ," She'd have to actually ASK her friends for their numbers all over again. Worst yet, she'd have to email her parents and let them know so they could send her a new one. Tahki wilted on the floor and her arms spread out eagle style. Despair. Defeat. That was Tahki right now.


Huni
Tro got to his feet, gingerly walking up to Tahki until he was practically standing over her. His hand was outstretched to her, "We can ask the cleaning gnomes if they've already emptied the trash. Unless y' intend to buy a new one instead?" He considered that possibility. After all, the phone might have gotten damaged. "But y' can still probably clean the keychain up again, yeah?" He added with an encouraging grin.

He wasn't materialistic, but Tro knew how some people had sentimental values attached to things. Maybe the key chain she mentioned was one of them and thus, well, it would still be important she get at least that back, right?


Chobi
Tahki nodded. Maybe a gnome had spared her poor phones life but as it was she didn't have time to go hunt one down right then. The gryphon had other matters to attend to like getting to class before it filled up. She'd have to continue her search later.

"Im.. thinking maybe after class I'll look for a gnome," Her worried look did not falter but only grew more firm as she looked at Petro. "I-Im sorry for being a bother. Thank you Petro." Tahki gave him a real smile.

The horse boil shook his head, "Ain't no bother, Tahki. 'M glad to be of help. Even if I didn't manage to help y' get y'r phone back," his apology was equally sincere with his insistence that it was his pleasure to be of service. As he looked at her, something occurred to him, "Y' going to Prom?" he asked.

He didn't see the harm in his question. If what everyone's saying is true, everyone was going to attend it. Who knows, maybe the griffon didn't have an escort yet and wouldn't mind having Tro escort her to it. He certainly wouldn't mind going with Tahki.

Tahki was grateful for the help and was about to open her mouth to say her thanks when Tro asked if she was going to prom. The gryphon thought nothing of the question at first and shrugged.

"I don't know. I usually don't go to those things," And that was the truth she had admitted with a mere shrug of the shoulders. The only time she went to a dance was with Julian on valentines day. It had been okay but it wasn't an activity that the gryphon was found of. Computer games and reading were her favorite.

"I'm not sure if I will," She looked at her feet.
PostPosted: Sun Jun 19, 2011 10:21 am


"Huh." Petro looked a little startled? Disappointed? An emotion that was bordering on not-happy-not-quite-upset? Whichever it was, the griffon would have missed it given the fact she was staring at her feet. The tikbalang didn't know if Tahki wasn't going because she was worried about the rigors of Prom or for any other reason that wasn't her simply not liking those sort of events. A hand rubbed at his chin thoughtfully and a small smile spread across his face. "If y'd let me have the honor, I'd escort y' to Prom."

There was no beating around the bush with Tro, was there?

The offer hit the gryphon like a brick to the head and was met with a 'HUH' sort of look. Not that Petro was a bad pick to go to prom with but he wasn't some one Tahki knew well. Prom meant romance in the gryphons mind. She gulped.

Her options were wearing out, and saying a simple no thank you seemed much to complicated a concept for the gryphon to fully grasp on to. So instead of informing Petro thanks but no thanks, Tahki found her self inching toward the door. Backwards. She adjusted her headphones some before turning heel and making a run for it out of the cafeteria toward... a wall?

Slam.

Tahki was on her back now looking up at pretty little arctic gryphons flutter round her head. Ow.
PostPosted: Sun Jun 19, 2011 7:02 pm


One minute, Petro was looking at Tahki, the next he was watching her inch back before breaking into a full run. Right into the cafeteria wall? "Tahki!" he gasped, rushing up to her fallen form to kneel beside her. "Y' okay?" The gryphon's reaction to his question seemingly pushed aside for the moment. Because, well, she had just run right smack into a wall! Her physical well-being far outweighed his little request.

Little gryphons still circled her head in a dizzying manner. Tros voice brought Tahki to reality.

"Huh..." The gryphon was staring right at Petro but it took her a moment to really realize this. The question had been stashed away in the back of her mind for the mean time but not entirely forgotten.

"Y-Yeah I think so," Slowly the question came back and bit at her memory. Her reaction in hindsight had been completely rude now that she thought about it. The gryphon looked away full of embarrassment for her poor behavior.

"Y' sure? Y' don't need to go to see Nurse Cricket'r something?" the concern was still very much there. He would even offer to carry her if she was hurt more than she realized. "Why'd y' bolt alluva sudden?" As much of a gentleboil as Tro thought himself to be, he was, unfortunately not the sort to beat around the bush. Straightforward paths meant the shortest distance, yeah? It didn't mean most subtle though.

It also didn't help that Petro didn't immediately realize it was his offer to be her escort (sorry, he will never use the word Date in this context) was the reason why she suddenly tried to run.

"N-no no no ... Im fine really Im just well.."

Shame traveled through Tahkis mind. She had bolted as a natural reflex to avoid something awkward but in doing so she had made the situation all that more awkward for her self.

"I uhh... I .." She bit her lip still trying to figure a way out of the situation she was in. It seemed every moment she wasted trying to think of a way out she only dug her self deeper and deeper. Running was still an option of course. Tahki sighed. There was no escaping it.

"Im... just... I don't really know you to well to go to prom with you..." The confession took a thousand pounds off the gryphons chest. Why hadn't she just said that before? It wouldnt have involved running into a real wall that was for sure.

Petro had to lean in closer to hear what Tahki was trying to tell him. But when it became obvious, the horse boil only blinked at her. There was a tiny tug at his heart that his... what was this? His third attempt at asking ghoul to Prom? Was met with yet another rejection. He'd thought third time would be the charm but alas, it wasn't meant to be.

Then again, the gryphon did have a point. "Y'd probably want someone y'r more familiar with to watch y'r back. I get it," he still offered her a friendly smile and a hand to help her up. If things between them had been awkward, Tro wasn't making any indication of it. Which probably meant he didn't find it the least bit awkward.

Tahki had almost expected Tro to be mad at her or even leave her. It was a shock when he actually helped her by offering a hand. Tahki gladly took it and pulled her self to her feet. Petro was a good boil from what Tahki could tell which made her feel a little bad for rejecting him. There was nothing personal about the rejection only that Tahki was a social failure in almost every aspect of who she was. A sheltered princess afraid to strike up a conversation with her own shadow let alone dance with it.

"You'll find a cute ghoul," Tahki gave Petro a small smile and a thumbs up. Encouraging another wasn't something the gryphon practiced often though so her attempt was slightly on the weak side. But Tahki had put forth the effort. That was what mattered. Though Tahki had no idea Petro wasn't looking for a date but some one to possibly count on and have his back. She had no idea Petro had no idea what a prom REALLY had to offer.

Tahki would be pleased to learn that Tro would instinctively go out of his way to make a ghoul feel better even at the expense of his own discomfort. Of course he did give her a confused expression, square-root brows furrowing together briefly before he quirked one at her, upon her mumbling something about cute? "Huh. Guess escorting a cute ghoul'd make her more disarming," he considered this possibility and how it would be to their advantage should there be an impromptu battle exhibition. "That'd be a bonus 'm thinking and not a major requirement."

Tro maybe should have added a disclaimer of sorts that he didn't mean to imply the gryphon ghoul wasn't cute. But Tro was rather too straightforward for his own good in this case. Tahki was more than free to call him out on it because intention? It is not magical nor is it FEAR-ful.

Tahkis ears wilted a little hearing that he probably should find a cute girl. Was she not cute? Tahki never really thought about it. Her fashion sense was a bit on the boyish side and she never really took time to learn how to use make up. Usually her hair was a wild mess of a thing and not prim and proper like some other ghouls around school.

Self awareness creeped up on the gryphon hard and fast hitting her like a ton of bricks. Not that she didn't deserve it for running off and then flat out rejecting Tro but it did hurt a bit.

"Y-yeah a bonus..." Now it was hard to meet Petros eyes with her own. She felt inferior all of a sudden and ugly. "I-I need to go to class. Catch you later." Her tone was flat and a little defeated. Tahki had not been rejected but her constant misunderstandings and over analyzing made her feel flat. She turned toward the hall and started off to class.

It appears that the rest of the encounter between gryphon and tikbalang was going to devolve into a series of misconceptions and miscommunication. Because Petro mistook Tahki's... there was no other way to describe her sudden demeanor as anything but deflated. Her sudden shift in mood made him think she was unhappy on his behalf.

"Lemme go with y'," he offered, "Since I can't right escort y' to Prom, lemme escort y' to class." Had he known he was the cause of her unhappiness, Tro would've done whatever he could to make it right with her. "It'd be my honor," he added. Tro does not take his honor very lightly.

Tahki still let her eyes stay to the ground. A small nod could be seen though.

"Y-yeah okay. You can escort me to class then," Her heart was still swimming in her stomach. She felt so small. But at least Tro wanted to take her to class. "Its this way.. " Tahki pointed down the hall."
