[Pepzilla]

Pepin was starting to see a few more familiar faces, namely Mitsu from the Library and Junko from the tent she had met Savage in. Even the plague doctor looked familiar but neither of them had spoken. Charlie was familiar too but Pepin hardly recognized him without the inflated mascot hat he'd worn at Riley's campaign table. In fact Riley looked a hell of a lot different than when she and Andeon initiated Pepin into the school, but she dismissed it as... normal.

Although she'd already pow-wowed with Mitsu, Pepin was interested in the long haired ghoul she'd met during Florestival and while she was reluctant to leave her seat, she took one of her boots off and left it in the chair as not to have her spot right up next to the teacher taken. Hobbling over with an uneven balance, Pepin sidled close to Junko's desk and smiled. Disregarding her boilfriend sitting next to her, she opened her mouth and began to utter a sort of unpleasant and questionable whisper.

"Hello... hello Junko. Do you remember me? From the festival? Do you remember taking Savage's pop quiz?" c8  

[Enoh Love]

That odd blush returned with a vengeance at Roch's compliment. What had Nuk told her earlier...? Ahhh, no, best to not think about it. He was just being nice, that was all. "Th-thank you, I like this body." So far, with the exception of her boobs. But other than that, she loved this new body! "Ah, that's true...but when she does, don't forget, okay?" She was very, very concerned with his academic well-being.

Amrita squeaked when there was a Sudden Charlie-face right up in hers. Both gray eyes were open wide as saucers as he scrutinized her, nearly going cross-eyed when he poked her nose. "A-ah! But..! But I am Amrita, Charlie!" She pleaded with a very unhappy whimper, somewhat upset that the young Demon didn't recognize her.

She was too busy with the boils to notice the ghoul she'd smashed with a textbook, though. Nor did she notice the other plethora of faces she recognized.  

[Bilious]

Christof had been content to just sit and wait for class to start, obediantly holding his ground in case either Master needed something that involved getting up and not hitting something with their new sore wings.

He glanced over his shoulder as he over-"heard" Riley speaking with a newer student, brows raising as though about to ask a question but-

The thought was cut short as those long, luxurious clawed fingers gently ran along the edge of his little wing.

The hunchback made a choking noise in the back of his throat, mismatched hands gripping the edge of his desk as the wing shuddered against her fingers. Oh... Oh Mistress... it... no one had... he didn't like people touching... oooooh~

The choking noise soon became a high keening, his head slumping down until his chin rested on the desk top as his body shuddered with pleasure.

It really was a sensitive little thing. He should have tucked it under his jacket like he did his extra arm but... but it had felt so cramped and maybe this time it would be okay and... ooooh~....  

[Chobi_Chocobo]

Charlie gave the ghoul a look over and frowned.

"I.. How? What?" The demon was dumb founded and a lot confused by this sudden development. He wasn't completely convinced though. Charlie took a seat a little closer to this 'Amrita' and stared.

Amrita had been so small. This Amrita wasn't-hey wait a minute.

"D-did you go through a growth spurt?" Charlie was still staring.  

[Nio Love]

Riley, as usual, was completely ignorant of Christof's situation, save that he seemed more comfortable. That, and now that he was slumped over, her wasn't in danger of being hurt by her wings. All around, it was a good position, and she used it to rest her arms on as she bent in towards Malodore and Jericho. All the while, she had this funny little wing in front of her, and she toyed with it noncommittally.

She looked pleased with herself, though. Amrita looks wonderful, don't you think, Jericho? Malodore and Christof did an amazing job on her body. I'm so proud of her for managing it.  

[Bilious]

The little wing in Riley's hands fluttered like a leaf stuck in the wind, delicate skin whisking at the air as the tiny bat-like fingers trembled and twitched and flapped against her palms as though it were trying to escape his hunch.

Under Riley's stooped form, Christof was writhing. His breath came in short spurts, nostrils flaring as he gripped his desk, legs crossing and uncrossing and finally kicking as her fingers danced against it. The keening in his throat grew a hair louder, his head twisting to rest his cheek against the desk.

She just... kept... fiddling and... he should... tell her to stop but... he couldn't... it felt... he hadn't... no one had... it wasn't... oooooh~  

[Blade Kuroda]

"If you say so.." he murmured in response.

Shun couldn't help but shrug some at the question Mitsu had asked. It was something he was curious of as well, but given the booth at Open House and how damn leaky this class room was, he had a slight feeling water was going to be involved one way or another.

Then again, the professor was a Leviathan.

He just hoped no swimming would be needed. Ever.

----

Jericho continued to stare at the patchwork girl for another moment or so, until he heard one of the Reapers shouting out to her. Wait, so that was Amrita!

Confusion gone for the moment, he grinned and waved back to the vetala. However, that confusion came back as he didn't recall her having a patchwork body before. So how...?

The question was soon answered by his best friend, who explained a little of what went down.

"New body?" he remarked, "Well damn. You guys did a pretty good job of it! She looks great."

Hearing an odd noise nearby, his focus shifted to Christof who was acting rather strangely. Was ... Riley doing that to him?

"... What..?"  

[Eight]

Junko had just stumbled into her seat--"Way to not look where you're going, idiot."--and sat down beside Seiji, greeting him with a kiss on the cheek and a bright smile, when the glitch ghost suddenly approached her. The whisper was...not all that nice to hear. Not that she disliked the ghoul! The whisper itself. It was strange. But the ghoul was strange all around so...it fit her? She hoped it was just how she sounded and it wasn't some kind of malicious feeling she was...feeling. Eh heh. She blinked, tilting her head to one side. She remembered her? Wow! The ghoul's smile returned and she nodded, though she didn't..quite remember her name. Oh dear. That was terrible of her! Junko was terrible! Augh!

"Yes, I do remember! It was quite an odd quiz, huh? And so sudden." A glance was cast toward Savage's desk before she turned her gaze back to Pepin again. "It's a shame I didn't see you after it though! How have you been? Did you enjoy the festival before it...ah...was destroyed?" Stupid Fearados.

Junko paused a moment. She really shouldn't continue with a lie for too long. Asking for the ghoul's name would get awkward later on down the line. A small frown replaced her smile and she scratched at her cheek. "Also..I'm really sorry. I don't remember your name! I remember you, just...not...your name. I'm sorry!" She remembered Junko's name but Junko didn't remember hers! She felt so bad.  

[Zee Oddwyn]

Okay, this was becoming awkward. Watching the purple ghoul with the crystal wings toy with Christofs wing, Johan began to feel like he was seeing something that ought to be reserved for the pumpkin patch. With a cough, he turned and finally noticed Haddiya beside him, gesturing towards to unoccupied seats.

Flustered, he didn't even greet her, merely moving to the seat. Once there, it was easy enough to get into the routine of setting out his studying materials, and ignoring whatever was happening a few seats over. He wondered idly if they would be making more little boats this time, as he fished out a small glass jar from his robe.



The strange creature blinked at the light, and tried to chase after the drops of water falling from the ceiling. Giving it an exasperated look, he shoved the jar to the corner of his desk, right beneath a persistent leak, and let it enjoy itself.  

[Smerdle]

West's amused little smile over the appearance of Tess' legs was short lived, especially following Yaya's mention of his parents. He was conscious of the fact that he had never shared his changing feelings about the pair of demons who had raised him with her, but that didn't stop his fist from balling and pounding against his thigh a couple of times in agitation.

He cast his gaze around the room in an effort to calm himself down.

Oh, look, a ghoul who seemed to be made of squares. And some other grubby Snots. Junko. Seiji. Riley's wings again. Jericho looked different too. Aurian from the island. He tried to ignore a certain giddily obnoxious puppy and kitten since they were only bound to make him angrier, but the presence of Demi's poncho was stored away for later harassment. And there was a new-old patchwork ghoul. No, seriously, she seemed familiar. West squinted at Amrita, mentally shrugging when narrowing his eyes unsurprisingly did nothing to reveal who she was.

Finally, he turned his attention back to Yaya. "No." His fist unclenched and he looked up at the ceiling. "You do that? Pretty cool."  

[Kaiyumi]

Xiu's attention had drifted away for a bit, distracted by a ghoul who had entered who was...familiar, and yet not familiar at the same time. Just like some of the others in the class, she was having a hard time believing that the ghoul was Amrita. She looked so much more...mature, albeit as sweet as ever if her interaction with Roch and Charlie were any indication. Smiling, she gave a little shake of her head before turning to return the wave to Sheridan.

With so many students here, this was going to be an interesting class.

Turning back to Shun and Mitsu, she furrowed her brows thoughtfully at the latter's question. "Human studies, hmm?" Honestly, Xiu knew...nothing about humans, really, so she wasn't sure what the focus of the class would be. "Maybe just...the basics? What humans are afraid of and such?" Whatever they were learning, she just hoped that it would help her with the scariness factor.  

[Dragain]

Was she late?

It was difficult to tell, since the class was already filling up, but it seemed to her that nothing was going on... Which probably meant that she was not late at all. However, the fact that class was starting soon meant that she had no right to be picky with her seat; not that she had to be, really, with so many familiar faces around.

"Tess!" She hugged the ghoul tightly from behind before taking a seat beside her, pushing in her chair. Turning to face her again, Lizzy started to stare, a frown tugging at the edges of her lips as she tilted her head; there was something different about Tess today, but she just couldn't put her finger on it... New haircut? Different hairstyle? Change of clothing?

... Wait. WAIT!

"Tess! You... Your legs!" She squealed softly, her eyes widened as she blinked, a grin on her face, "You found them?"

[Lizzy is attending.]  

[Ice Queen]

Ghosts. The itching in the back of his head (as he described it) started up again, or maybe Roch had only just noticed it when he woke up.He was starting to think it had something to do with ghosts. He glanced over to the boxy ghoul that was talking to Junko, then looked away again almost as quickly. So he expected that sort of thing in all his classes now, y'know... the ghosts. But they weren't talkin' to him, so he was okay.

Okay. The image of his dad pointing and laughing at him flashed through his mind and his expression darkened for a second. He would, too, Roch thought irritably. If his dad knew how pathetic he was when it came to ghosts he'd laugh his a** off at him, and Roch wouldn't even be able to talk back. Big bad reaper, hah.

He started looking around for something to distract himself with, only to find himself staring up at the ceiling as another ice cold drip hit his head. "That is definitely going to mess up my hair for the day," he complained.  

[Huni Pi]

Had Tess known of her fellow student's reactions to her no-longer-missing legs, she would have given them a wry smile and mentioned something about being careful what you wished for. And maybe make a backhanded compliment about trickster genies granting wishes just not the way you intended. She did notice Herryk (and honestly HOW does one miss a student of his impressive size? Someone, somewhere, please take your mind out of the gutters >C) sit behind her. "Herryk, good to see you again," she greeted and as she attempted to turn her torso around to face him (while leaving her lower half sitting forward, hooray for severed body parts), Lizzy arrived and vocalized her surprise.

"A-ah, n-no, Christof did," she explained with a small, anxious smile. It was still awkward for her to be in such close proximity to the patchwork Igor. "I-I'll tell you more after class."

Meanwhile, Legs was content at taking in the sights of such a wide variety of students. Oh the people she would meet! The things she could learn! The experiences she could have with them! It was all she could do not to jump out of her seat and hop onto some random student's desk to introduce herself. Thankfully, with Tess' full weight bearing down on her, she was hard pressed to do just that.

----------------------------------------

Petro noticed Levi take a seat beside Mot. Ah, the ghoul from the arm wrestling booth (Tro couldn't help but frown at the memory of his failed bouts with no thanks to those candlejacking gnomes) as well as from Floresctival. From the corner of his eye he saw Sheridan sit nearby and he greeted the celestial dragon with a good-natured clap on the back. "Sheridan! Glad to see y' here, too! Dunno if y've met Mot and Arm-wrestling-ghoul, but this 's Sheridan."

He was going to ask about the strange creature on the dragon's desk when he saw Charlie stick his tongue out at him. Did he really? DID HE REALLY?

Yes, yes, the fallen did. "'Scuse me," he muttered to Sheridan, Mot, and Levi before he promptly marched his way towards the pink-haired boil with full intentions of making his knuckles well acquainted with Charlie's jaw.

He was radiating anger and contempt for the fallen, ever since their little train ride Tro had never quite forgiven the slight Charlie made against his Clan's customs. "Y' don't learn very good, do y'?" he growled at Charlie in warning. The only reason he hadn't already gone and tried to put the beat down on the other boil was one: Charlie was very near a ghoul he didn't know (sorry Roch, as a boil, Tro assumed you'll be able to fend for yourself should a brawl break out). And two: Lizzy had arrived and with her presence, Tro had to keep his promise to her.

But really, Tro was itching for the pink-haired boil to try and provoke him again.
