 [It's the day after Christmas.  And there's a new face on camera, beaming at everyone from their mirrors.   A teenage girl!

...of sorts.  She's not winning any beauty pageants, that's a given.  She looks "off", for lack of a better term, but, for what she lacks in normalcy she makes up for in enthusiasm.]

HI GUYS!

[A cheerful "princess" wave.]

I am sooooooo happy to meet all of you!  I'm Betty!   I can't wait to be your new friend, TEE-HEE.

Tell me all the things!  Y'know gossip and shit....stuff. I mean.

[She tilted her head and let a messy ponytail flop to the side with the gesture, still smiling much, much, too broadly.]

[ace_of_hearts]

Nice to meet you too, Betty! Been here long?

[Does Ace know? Even if he does.... he stays the same....]

[creepyoldguy]

I'm kinda new.

[Shapeshifting never took this much effort back home.]

[ace_of_hearts]

Neat! Need a tour around the place?

[bigbadrose]

No. Change back now.

[creepyoldguy]

I don’t know what you’re talking about!

[bigbadrose]

Uh-huh.

You're just what, related to the poltergeist? [Demon, remember? She doesn't.]

[creepyoldguy]

[She did a very Beetlejuice head tilt.]

I’m not sure who you mean.

Unless you mean that incredibly good looking demon with the great fashion sense and amazing hair.

[bigbadrose]

[FACEPALMS HARD!]

Duuuuuude. Don't compliment yourself, that's so cringey!

[connie_maheswaran]

UH.

What are you doing, BJ?

[creepyoldguy]

Who?

[connie_maheswaran]

Beej. Come on. It's definitely you.

[creepyoldguy]

[A pout from Betty, before a finger snap.]

Kinda a wet blanket, ain’t ya?

[buff_dandelion]

[Well, this one definitely seems odd, but at least she also seems nice! Kusa gives polite smile and a bow.]

Hello, Betty-san! It's nice to meet you.

[creepyoldguy]

Hiiiiii!

[Chipper wave!]

[buff_dandelion]

I hope you're enjoying your time here Betty-san. Have you been given a class yet?

[Still clueless that it's Beetlejuice.]

[creepyoldguy]

["Betty" twirled a strand of blondish-greenish hair around one finger.]

Thank you! I am! Everyone has been soooooo nice!

I'm Hero Class.

[No point in lying on that front.]

[strangeandunusual]

I think you're overdoing it a little bit. Which, you know. Normal for you.

[a pause, as she smirks]

Betty, huh?

[strangeandunusual]

I think you're overdoing it a little bit. Which, you know. Normal for you.

[a pause, as she smirks]

Betty, huh?

[creepyoldguy]

I can’t look this good without some effort.

[strangeandunusual]

I meant the gossip talk and the fact that you actually said "tee hee".

[the patented Amused Beta Lydia Snort]

[creepyoldguy]

I’m “in character”. Have to sell it, y’know?

[dr_riley]

[just.....this face.]

[creepyoldguy]

Yeeees?

Can I help you, Sweetie?

[dr_riley]

[If possible, his eyes get even wider before he leans in and squints. He isn't one hundred percent sure it's the same guy, because well...ridiculous fantasy world with ridiculous fantasy rules. But he's certainly got his suspicions.]


[slowly] No relation to a certain rotting corpse with a fondness for stripes, then?

[creepyoldguy]

The incredibly attractive and brilliant demon?

[Bats her eyes.]

We might be related.
