*Before*

"To turn me into a version of themselves." (W)

"Well in that case, perhaps you can clear something up. Rumor's been swirling around that you killed a kid at your old school, and your parents pulled strings to get you off." (E)

"Actually, it was two kids but who's counting?" (W)

[Omg, did I hear that right... This girl is more than insane already. Better keep up with her.] (E)

----------

*Now*

"Welcome to the squad!" (E)

"It's a pentagon." (W)

[ You don't say girl..] (E)

"The whole snarky Goth girl thing might have worked at normie school, but here things are different. Let me give you a wiki on Nevermore's social scene." (E)

We were obviously now outside. Where everyone gathered. This was my zone, not to mention many kids here knew me. Of course, many knew me, but I was in disguise.

"I'm not interested in participating in tribal adolescent clichés." (W)

Like I said, my zone.

"Well, then use it to fill your obviously bottomless pit of disdain. There are many flavors of outcast here, but the four main cliques are Fangs, Furs, Stoners, and Scales." (E)

Pointing at the vampires. Mostly unknown to me but in between the crowd I recognized some faces. My bff Yoko and of course the suspicious ew looking guys Devon and Victor.

"Those are the Fangs, AKA vampires." (E)

Leaning closer to Wednesday emphasize my point I said,

"Some of them have literally been here for decades." (E)

Next, came my kind... Pointing at a bunch of 5yr old's.

"That bunch of knuckleheads are Furs, AKA werewolves. Like me!" (E)

All of a sudden, a bunch of them start howling like crazy. At this point the new girl just walked in annoyance.

Not minding her much, I continue speaking.

"Full moons get pretty loud around here. That's when Furs wolf out. I suggest you pick up some noise-canceling headphones." (E)

"I'm assuming Scales are sirens?" (W)

"You catch on quick. And that girl Bianca Barclay is the closest thing Nevermore has to royalty. Although, her crown has been slipping lately. She used to date our resident tortured artist, Xavier Thorpe but they broke up at the begging of the semester. Reason unknown." (E)

"Fascinating" (W)

"I know right, my blog is like the number one source for Nevermore gossip!" (E)

"Yo, Enid! You're not gonna believe the dirt I heard about your new roommate. She eats human flesh. Totally, chowed down on that kid she murdered. You better watch your back." (A)

"Quite the contrary." (W)

"I actually fillet the bodies of my victims. Then feed them to my menagerie of pets." (W)

"Ajax, this is my new roomate Wednesday..." (E)

"Woah, you're in black and white. Like a living instagram filter." (A)

"Ignore him, Gorgons spend way too much time getting stoned. He's cute but clueless. You know it's a small school and there wasn't much online about you. Oh you know! You should really get on Insta, Snapchat and Tiktok!" (E)

"I find social media to be a soul sucking void of meaningless information" (W)

Well, what a way of rejecting my offer... This is harder than I expected it to be.

*A few minutes later. Wednesday leaves to say goodbye to her parents but this is not about Wednesday. It's about Enid.*

[ Great, the new girl is an authentic antisocial goth girl. Not to mention compared to her I look like a fluke. Hey, that's not a bad idea. I'll learn her ways by sticking close to her. I'll befriend her and will change her! And at the same time annoy her. This isn't anything personal, but this girl will see who Enid Sinclair is! Wait? Why am I so annoyed by her?!] (E)
