With all her belongings unpacked, more or less, day two at Amity Academy was going to be all about exploring all those previously restricted nooks and crannies on campus the ghoul had not yet gotten a chance to see. She'd started with the classrooms, quietly moving down the hall and peeking in on rooms filled with students listening to teachers of heads bowed over some assignments, or tests, or whatever else they they have been writing. Her own classes were scheduled to start the following week, but she was pretty excited.
After the classrooms she'd taken a peek into the other dorms, just for a looksy, and decided that Monster dorm was her favorite. It might not have been as fancy as the Demon dorms, but it was lively, and loud, and bustling with students running all over.
Merry was going to fit right in.
The gym had been the last stop on her self led tour, and she'd spent about an hour just fooling around there. A lap around the track - a few drills with the casketball - Then she made her way to the cafeteria to grab a quick bite for lunch before meandering out to the lawn to eat. It was a lovely afternoon, why not enjoy it?

Ahm was, for once (and this was definitely something he was getting more and more bitter about as time went along), actually on campus that day. He didn’t know that one of his favorite Chimeras was on grounds, but all day he’d had this odd feeling like something interesting was going on…and he was missing it. By being in class, by doing what he was supposed to do at Amityville School rather than ditching and going to explore.
When lunch time rolled around - the official school sanctioned lunch-time rather than any time he felt the urge to eat (which was often, Grue were pretty much always hungry) - Ahm got his and glanced over the throng of creeple. So many new faces…so many old faces that looked different. It bothered him. Even his twin was different and that was perhaps the unkindest blow of all. But how the Jack was he supposed to keep up with his studies when he was always being hauled back to the Clan?
So rather than stay inside and eat, he found himself outside on the lawn, eyes squinting against the lighting and flicking here and there to locate an optimal place to eat.
And it was in his searching that his eyes fell upon a familiar face; one that made his tail twist in the most pleased manner and a huge grin spread across his face. Merry! Ahm made his way over to the lovely Chimera and dropped down next to her. “Fancy seeing my favorite ghoul during my favorite hour.” Out of the room he shared with Nahm, Ahm was covered head to tail-tip, face hidden by the deep folds of his cowl.
“You on a day pass, beautiful, or you doin’ time too?”

Merry had a mouthful as the other twin took a seat beside her, and she very nearly choked in her haste to throw herself at the tall boil, squealing in delight. "Ahm!" He hadn't been on campus when she'd moved in, and clearly, if banter was any indication, had only been back a short while, and had not yet run into his brother.
Careful of his hood, the ghoul stole a kiss before nuzzling along his cheek. "Doin' time," she'd confirm, voice low and carrying the edge of a giggle as she drew back to grin up at him from his lap, which she'd completely invaded. A little shifting let her settle with her back to his chest, wings hanging low and sweeping back along his sides and hips instead of being a feathery barrier between them.
One of his arms, if it hadn't already, was drawn up to loop around her, and her tail ticked back to curl itself around his own.
"Finally got my acceptance letter." After ages. "And I am officially a student now." She was grinning, proud of herself, as she reclaimed her package of spookies from where it'd fallen out of her lap when she'd thrown herself at him. "And we're neighbors." A giggle followed that news, then a loud crunch as she took a big bite of her spookie.

Merry's obvious delight at reuniting with him was definitely something to improve the day; Ahm's grin went impossibly wider as the chimera threw herself into his arms (and lap!). As he wound his arms around her, he wondered - briefly - if his twin knew that Merry was on campus or not; he'd returned just in time to drop his belongings off at their dorm room before heading to class that morning, with no real time to really talk to Nahm before hand.
He purred at the invasion of his cowl-space and nuzzled back at Merry's neck, wholly unworried about the shielding cloth accidentally being knocked back - Merry understood, she knew better than to expose either Grue to bright light. Ahm allowed the ghoul to settle herself, tucking his chin over her shoulder and resettling his arms around Merry's body; when she moved one arm to fit more snuggly about her waist, the Grue chuckled.
"Glad to hear it. This place'll be a lot more interesting with you around." Ahm had his own food, of course, but that didn't mean he wasn't going to try sneaking one or two of her spookies, though he'd also share some of his lunch too. Usually Grue didn't share their food but he was used to sharing with Nahm, so he'd would give it a shot with Merry.
"Neighbors, huh? I'll have to come by." Maybe he and Nahm could throw her a little..."dorm-warming" party. Privately. He'd think about it - did his twin know she was attending Amityville? "You seen Nahm yet?" He used the arm not around Merry's waist to pick up a thick sandwich and eat it; it was lunch and he was hungry, dammit.

A loud, content purr rolled up and out from the ghoul's chest as she cuddled in against the grue. She'd missed him, a lot, the poor boil was always getting roped into family matters, and it took him away from campus at the absolute worst times. It seemed like every time she was there to visit he'd been busy, and there had only been so much time for him to venture into town to drop in on her.
Now? Now it wouldn't matter so much because she would but right next do. Or, she suspected, bunking over with the twins when not curled up with any other warm(or cold) body.
Groping fingers honed in on her box of spookies, and Merry moved moved them away, just out of his reach, with an impish giggle. For a whole minute she kept this up, chewing loudly in his ear, teasing the poor boil relentlessly before holding up the half eaten treat for him to claim. "I should hope so." She liked to think of herself as interesting. Certainly she managed to attract a lot of attention.
As for visits? "You're always welcome, day or night." The same invitation had been extended to Nahm, of course.
"Nahm helped me move in. Said you were busy with a family thing, I missed you, but you're here now." His twin was well aware their favorite ghoul was no not only in attendance, but their new neighbor. He'd been there to greet her right after she'd let herself into her new room.
Bright eyes followed the sandwich as it came closer, and she put a hand on his thigh, using it to push herself up so she could steal a bite from a dangling bit of something meaty. Yum.

Mentally Ahm made note that the next time Gramps tried hauling him out of Amityville Academy he was gonna get an earful of spleen - it had been hard enough leaving with just Nahm (who was he kidding, just Nahm?) but with Nahm and Merry waiting for him? It would take a huge amount to get him out of school.
He growled happily and nuzzled at Merry's cheek; having her in his lap was almost as good having his favorite meal presented to him. Even when she was teasing him and keeping the box of spookies just out of reach. "Aww, c'mon Merry...give a boil a bite!" And when she finally offered him just what he'd asked, he crunched it happily, tail twitching in pleasure.
"Same to you, Merry. Just remember to knock first - let a boil know before you let light in. And watch out for the foxfire, he's a brat."
Ah, so Nahm had helped her settle in - that made Ahm happy, even if he hadn't been party to it - good to know. If she was offering him an open-ended invitation into her dorm room, then she'd probably extended the same to his twin.
"Yeah, Clan business. Gettin' pretty sick of being hauled out all the time. Seems like every other day. Only good part is being able to bring some new fabric up each time." Grue always altered their clothing, considering nothing truly theirs until they'd augmented it, added their own trims and flairs, patches and pieces. Ahm liked being able to bring things from their Clan-home back to Amityville Academy, even if he was pretty sick of the whole back-and-forth thing.
"Gotta stick around for my favorite ghoul." When Merry snuck a bite, he chuckled and didn't fight it. Sharing with the pretty chimera was easier than he'd thought it would be, perhaps because of how much he and his twin liked her...or maybe it was because she was Merry. "Made it myself, you like?" Thick and tasty, he offered her another bite or two before the whole thing was gone; naturally Ahm had more to eat than just the sandwich, but that had definitely been the main event.

The ghoul nodded, humming under her breath as she helped herself to another spookie. She definitely knew the knocking rule, and multiple visits to the boils' room had introduced her to the hazards of the big-mouthed foxfire. "Mr. Snappy isn't so bad." Usually, if she didn't poke at him. It was usually better to just ignore the ravenous little beasty, unless he started begging for snacks.
"The woes of being the eldest, hm?" Merry, as a middle child, had never had similar responsibilities placed on her thin shoulders, which she was eternally grateful for. Had she been the eldest, it was very likely the tribe elders wouldn't have allowed her to leave the jungle to attend school. It wasn't a path many of her kind chose, but she'd wanted to get out, explore, see the world.
Eat many new things!
The offered sandwich had two large bites taken from the middle before the grue had a chance to finish it off, and the colorful ghoul chewed happily, nodding to answer his question. It was delicious. Thick and juicy and flavorful. The twins always had the best snacks.
When she finished, swallowing the mouthful down, she slouched in the boil's lap, holding his arm around her waist as pale fingers danced in half circled swirls over the layered fabric that covered from wrist to elbow. She was full, and she was comfortable, and that contentment was obvious in the steady purr that vibrated against his chest. After a minute or so she'd tip her head back to look up into the shadows of his cowl, sensitive eyes picking up familiar features. "Do you have classes today? Or is the rest of your afternoon clear?"

"How rude of him." The ghoul grinned. She wondered how many articles of clothing the pair had lost to foxfire. How many possessions. She'd have to be careful not to leave anything of value laying about where the little beast could get to it.
Merry's nose wrinkled at the mention of homework, and she bit back a giggle of perfect agreement. The classes weren't bad, in fact she found them to be informative and interesting, but she really disliked homework. Once she'd left the classroom, in her opinion, that should be it! Not so, unfortunately. But homework could wait. Merry had missed the elder grue, and now that she had him all to herself she felt like being greedy with his time.
Leaning forward, the ghoul turned until she was sitting in his lap with long legs wrapped loosely around his hips, ankles crossing behind him. Now she could slide her arms up so pale hands disappeared into the shadows of his cowl to slide fingers up into the loose waves of his hair, so much longer than his twin's. "I was hoping you'd say that."
Soft lips brushed his chin in a gentle kiss, and she marked his cheek again with a rub of her cheek, nuzzling affectionately against him. Cat like, almost possessive, if not for the nature of their relationship. She shared just dandy, but that didn't mean she didn't count the twins as hers.

"Ain't the worst thing he's gotten his teeth into, either." Ahm's expression was wry within the darkness of his cowl, but his eyes were bright. Truthfully he liked Mr. Snappy (most of the time) and even went out of his way to bring special treats from the Clan-home just for the little foxfire. Once they'd all agreed that the Beanbag was Mr. Snappy's, things had smoothed out (it had been tense before then, but no matter how bad it could have gotten Ahm wouldn't have kicked the foxfire out because Nahm loved it and Ahm was a huge sucker for his twin.)
"At least I got to keep some of it, made a few nice patches." Including one he'd presented as a gift to his twin, because...well, because. Ahm's tail twitched inside it's covering, winding just a little bit tighter around Merry's tail momentarily, when she started shifting around in his lap it unwound and thumped against the ground next to them.
Not caring if someone was watching, Ahm fit his gloved hands to her thighs and slid them up, he couldn't feel how soft she was but he knew and it was almost as good. It also put him in the position to fit his hands to her hips or up between her wings where he knew she liked. Merry's fingers in his hair set him to nearly purring, bright eyes going half closed with how good it felt; Ahm didn't let many creeple touch him so familiarly, but Merry had carte blanche where the twins were concerned.
"Anything for you, beautiful."
Ahm wound his tail around one of her ankles and pressed a kiss to her forehead, both cheeks and then caught her mouth for a light press of lips. He really had no issues with PDA and could think of several fun-and-extremely-naughty things to do out in the open, but he'd resist. Merry was newly on campus and he didn't want to get her in trouble. "Whatcha' wanna do, Mer? I'm yours for the afternoon." Or longer, really.

Gloved hands on her thighs had the ghoul smirking as she continued her nuzzling assault against the boil's jawline, but the slow upward creep of long fingers would have affections slowing to a stop just so she could concentrate on how lovely those hands felt, against her hips and up along her sides to slip in between soft feathers and her back. Gloves or not, it felt good, and she just wanted to sit there and soak it all up.
She didn't even realize she'd let her eyes fall shut, not until the kiss to her brow startled her into blinking up at him, only to receive a light peck on either cheek before the boil had claimed her lips. She'd been purring before now, a soft, low rumble, but that one kiss was enough to send the colorful beastling into overdrive.
Fingers curling into his hair, Merry melted against him even as he drew back enough to murmur to her, eliciting a soft sound of protest from the ghoul. She liked what he was saying, but she'd like the press of his lips against her own a whole lot more.
A pout made bright lips all the fuller as she looked up at him, and one slender hand emerged from his cowl with a dark coil of hair curled loosely around one finger. What did she want to do today? The list was endless, but right that moment she was more than content to stay in his lap out there on the lawn, reacquainting herself with the elder grue. A point she made clear to him as she let that soft curl slip free of her hand and cupped the side of his jaw to draw him down to her once again so she could steal a kiss from him. Longer, thorough, and just a little heated by the end of it. She'd missed him, and she wanted him to know just how much.
In a little while they could go back inside, escape to the dark seclusion the dorms provided so he could loose those protective layers. For now, she'd prove time and distance did little to dampen her feelings for him.

With the exotic ghoul in his lap pressed against him so warm and welcoming, Ahm thought he might have just won the Jacking lottery. Merry's flesh was warm and firm, but still soft and satiny under his gloves and as he touched her, she slowly went still, save for a slight fluttering of her brightly-hued wings and the twitching of her feather-tipped tail.
Ahm had smiled as he watched her eyes close - he could tell she was reveling in his attention and enjoying every little sensation. That she was such a sensual creature was definitely something he (and his twin) had noticed about Merry right away. It was also something they both enjoyed and indulged whenever possible.
When the purring chimera pouted at him for breaking their kiss, he felt the urge to kiss her pert little nose, maybe croon at her teasingly. Or just kiss her senseless. Merry was adorable when she pouted...adorable and still damned sexy. But he just smiled down at her while she wound some of his hair around her finger, the inky strands standing out in stark contrast against her shining whiteness and when she moved her small hand from toying with his hair to his jaw, he took the hint and dipped his head so she could fit her soft mouth to his.
"Jack, Merry...'s been too long." Ahm growled against her plush mouth, gloved fingers of one hand sliding through some of her wing feathers, rubbing gently at the base of the large feathery wings with that hand and pressing at the base of her spine with the other to hold her close. He didn't keep her waiting for his mouth for long though, she'd been clear in what she wanted and Ahm was ever a gentleman when it came to giving Merry what she desired (when possible.)
That they had missed one another was plain (and getting plainer by the minute) and the elder Grue was more than willing to spend as much time as Merry'd like holding her and kissing her under the branches of the large shade tree. Plenty of time later to visit her dorm room, to talk further and perhaps have another meal together (Ahm was almost always hungry, of course) but as long as the chimera was content to sit in his lap and fit her body to his, he'd enjoy it!
After a few moments (and some rather interesting looks and comments in their direction, Ahm pulled away and reached into one of the folds in his clothing. "Got something I wanna give you, before you make me forget." He grinned and chuckled huskily, shifting a bit because well...anatomy. And because he needed a little bit of room to pull a small pin from his clothes and offer it to her.

It had been too long. Nahm as the younger of the twins, had more time on his hands, and he'd been able to visit, swinging by her place in town to watch movies, catch a bite to eat, or spend the night. But Ahm, she hadn't seen him in ages. When he wasn't tied up with family affairs he was working on catching up with classes or doing homework. It meant she only got to see him on school visits, and those were few and far between.
Okay, so maybe not that few and far between, but still. The point still stood she missed him.
The grues might have been twins, but they weren't interchangeable. Merry adored them both, and where other's might not have seen all the differences between the two, she did. Mannerisms, habits, style. Two halves of a whole, but individual as well. in her time with the pair she hoped she'd shown them that she valued them both, equally, and did not simply flock to whomever happened to be available when she went seeking their attention
And apparently she had succeeded. A another soft protest fell from lips as they parted, and she looked up at him with bright red eyes a little dazed, but a dopey smile followed at the notion that she could make him forgetful. The knowledge was pleasing. "What is it?" She asked as he dug around in his pockets, but gave a soft chirp as he produced the pin.
No one had given her their pin yet! She took it, rolling it between her fingers as she held it up to smile at the picture. It was so perfectly him. "Thank yoooou!~" Kisses were rained all over his face, until she found the edge of his jaw and an appreciative hum sounded as she lingered there.

She was still admiring the pin as he spoke, and an automatic trill followed his words, that purring tone. Her Legs tightened around him, tail looping possessively, and she bounced a little on his lap as she pinned it to her top proudly. No explanations were needed, the ghoul knew what it meant, and her stomach gave an excited little flip, like wings fluttering through her insides.
He'd feel a grin against his lips as he complimented her, and a devious giggle followed as she she went to nuzzle against his cheek, but a touch against her chin had her pausing, letting him tip her head up again. The laughter faded, the ghoul stilled, and she melted into the kiss, purring deeply as she smoothed hands up along her shoulders and around his neck. Air, the boil was air, and she was breathless without him, without Nahm. How had she managed these long months(nay, years?) on the outskirts, there, but not there.
Merry was breathless when they parted, eyes half lidded and blurry as she blinked up into the shadows of his hood, licked along her lips to steal the lingering taste of him. Amorous as the chimera could be, no one effected her quite like this. The twins were special.
It took a long moment for the lovely ghoul to regain any amount of focus, but as she did she drew a hand down between them, fingers closing. A little concentration, a flicker of fear, and when she opened her hand there was a colorful circle in the center of her palm. She offered it up to him.
