*The video blinks on to another new member. There's a green-skinned girl with stitches on her body, black and white hair, and different-coloured eyes sitting in a classroom. If you catch sight of any of the students behind her, they all look pretty strange too -- is that a skeleton?*

Whoa! *The girl's eyes widen and she tilts her head, examining the screen.* What's going on?

Miss Stein! *The new voice comes from the front of the classroom.* Can you please pay attention to the class and not to your iCoffin?

Sorry! *The metal bolts on either side of her neck spark a little. The girl turns off the video feed.*

(Frankie intro! Responses will come later ICly, when she's not in class. Bold was the teacher, regular is Frankie herself.)

[Danny just had to stare. That classroom... All these people almost looked like ghosts. But none of them were glowing.]

Um, you still there?

[howbadcanibe]

[Once-ler likes green. A lot.

But for a skin color...well that's new.]

iCoffin?

[fearleads]

*When the video turns on again, the green stitched-together girl is in the hallway. It looks like a perfectly normal school... okay, that's a lie, normal schools don't have coffin-shaped lockers or bats flying about. Yes, some of the students and teachers walking by are ghosts, along with pretty much every other monster imaginable.*

Yeah, sorry! This came onto my iCoffin in the middle of class. What is this place, anyway?

[fearleads]

*Frankie answers him in the hallway of the school. Out of everyone passing by, most of them have weird skin colours, too, though some don't.*

Yeah, it's my phone!

Oh my, is this a new school in Makai? I wish I could've sent Lilith there.

[howbadcanibe]

You clearly live in a world way different than mine. Uhm...are you sick by any change, miss?

[fearleads]

Huh? No, why?

[video]

[fearleads]

I don't know about Makai, but we've been around for a little while... although I guess "a little while" is relative depending on how long you live, huh? Time is scary-complicated at the best of times.

[schrodingersghost]

It's a network between worlds. Kind of like interdimensional social networking.

...Was that a ghost?

[fearleads]

High voltage! I've never heard of anything like this before.

Who? *looks over* Oh, them? Uh-huh. Why?

[schrodingersghost]

No one does, until it happens.

...There's a school for ghosts?

[fearleads]

Wonder if I could ask Ghoulia about it?

It's not just for ghosts! This is the first fully-integrated school for all monsters!

[winterkicker]

That's a--skeleton?

[schrodingersghost]

That sounds kind of awesome. [And it looked more interesting than the haunted high school from the 60's he'd run across before.]

[fearleads]

Huh? Oh, you mean the girl who sits behind me in Dead Languages. Of course she's a skeleton, how come?

[fearleads]

It is pretty scary-cool. I'm Frankie! What's your name?

[winterkicker]

How can a skeleton be in a class?

[fearleads]

Same as any-body else, I guess. *The hyphen is warranted, with her emphasis on "body".* That's sort of like asking how a human can, isn't it?

[schrodingersghost]

Nice to meet you. I'm Danny.

[fearleads]

Are you a human? Wait, that's one of those things that's rude to ask, huh? Sorry, I'm still not used to everything yet.

[video]

[soulfist]

Yes, it is. You just seem like you come from my world, that's why I asked. You look like you're related to Victor! [ and she'll send over this picture ]

[video]

[fearleads]

Seriously? That's my dad's name! *laughs* But he doesn't look anything like that guy.

[winterkicker]

...okay, yeah, you're right. [seeing as she found a werewolf cool? she knows that's hypocritical.] Seeing as, uh. You don't seem too alive yourself.

[fearleads]

I was made in a lab, I don't know if that counts?

[winterkicker]

Really? That sounds kind of cool.
