"You are a perfect model. You can pull off anything you wear." Jinafire said as she began sketching an outfit for Frankie, Skelita and Clawdeen not far behind her.
"Thanks. My friends say I have a perfect figure for fashion but I have absolutely no idea what that means so I just wear whatever Clawdeen says is a good idea!" Frankie said smiling brightly.
"That's because if I let you dress yourself you'd end up wearing a lightning bolt styled blue and black plaid dress that looks like it came from the Victorian ages all the time. Which, while I'll admit would look Clawsome on you, would definitely not be a good choice considering how energetic and athletic you are." Clawdeen said without looking up from her sketch even once.
"Which is why I let you and Lala pick out my wardrobe and agreed to be your living Ken Doll for any outfits you make and want to see in action so to speak." Frankie said giggling, causing Jinafire to bite her lip to hold down her blush while Skelita merely smiled warmly. It seemed that everyone reacted differently to Frankie.
Out of the four ghouls in the HQ, Clawdeen and Ghostier seemed to take on a motherly role towards Frankie, although Ghostier seemed subtle and unwilling to go with the role, Skelita herself was beginning to see Frankie as a sort of younger sister to be protected…Jinafire however was attracted to the green skinned ghoul. There was just something about the stitch covered girl that drove Jina and her inner dragon side mad with desire, both sides wanting to hold Frankie close and protect her from the universe. Skelita wasn't the only one to pick up on the subtle signs of attraction that Jinafire was giving out in regards to Frankie.
"Eyes on your sketchbook and it'd better not be anything naughty you're thinking of when you look at Frankie." Clawdeen growled to Jinafire lowly, glaring at the scale covered teen while Skelita was getting to know Frankie as she measured the girl. Jinafire blushed slightly at being caught staring but nodded as she went back to working.
"Er you might want to wait until Frankie undoes her chest bandages before you measure that. She binds her chest a lot to make her breathing a bit easier." Clawdeen said turning around when Skelita was measuring Frankie's chest size.
"Why does she have to bind her chest to breath easier?" Jinafire asked, her head shooting up and her voice worried as she looked concerned while Frankie merely scratched the back of her neck sheepishly.
"Well all the electricity that's used to power me is stored where my lungs and heart would be if I had been born, say a werewolf or dragon or vampire or something like that. I've been straining it a lot lately because of some extenuating circumstances…so when it started hurting to breath I just bound my chest to make breathing a bit easier. Before that I had been wearing chest bindings to try and fit in with the other ghouls…they always acted so weird whenever they saw me changing in the locker room so I thought it was something bad…" Frankie said sheepishly, causing Clawdeen to roll her eyes.
"The only reason they acted so weird was because they were jealous…and I swear that Monster High was safe before you came along. It's like every weird or different thing from the norm happening in the world is locked onto you. We couldn't even bring you to Scaris without something happening…especially with that plane ride." Clawdeen said giving Frankie an amused look and causing Frankie to blush.
"It was an accident! I was excited to be visiting somewhere new and you know that when I'm excited I start sparking! I didn't meant to zap the electricity from the plane and at least I restored it before it crashed!" Frankie said defensively, causing Skelita and Jinafire to look at her in disbelief while Clawdeen merely laughed.
"Yeah Yeah you walking danger magnet. Go change out of those bandages so that we can get an accurate measure of your chest, instead of the fake one." Clawdeen said waving Frankie off towards a dressing room not far away…she waited until the green skinned ghoul was out of sight before she turned and bared her teeth at Jinafire.
"I don't know nor care why you show signs of falling for Frankie but if you even try to play with her heart or hurt her then winning this test will be the least of your worries. Have you ever seen a maternal, pissed off, werewolf on the full moon with scissors in her hand and gunning for your blood?" Clawdeen asked, her voice a literal growl. Her voice was so feral that Jinafire and Skelita almost couldn't understand her words…but it seemed they did because both of them were pretty pale.
"No. I can not say I have." Jinafire said nervously, but trying hard not to show it.
"You hurt Frankie and you will see what it's like. You might not be in any condition to tell anyone after the full moon's over but you'll definitely remember it…if you survive to begin with." Clawdeen said gripping her scissors tightly for emphasizes, causing Jinafire to nod slightly in understanding before her gaze traveled to the dressing room Frankie was in.
"You do not have to worry about me trying to 'play with her heart' as you so eloquently put it, nor do you have to worry about me hurting her. My dragon…and non-dragon side both agree to wanting her in my arms…but not to do anything dirty with her…not unless she is okay with it first…both sides…merely want to hold her…protect her…keep her safe from…everything and everyone. I…I do not understand how that is possible though. Whenever I meet someone I may be interested in…either my non-dragon side…or my dragon side does not like them for one reason or another…and yet both sides of me seem to like and want her. It is…very strange indeed." Jinafire said slowly as she stared at the dressing room, her gaze never wavering even once despite the softness in it. Clawdeen and Skelita's eyes widened ever so slightly.
It wasn't very well known but dragons, or the children of dragons, could only truly love one person and one person alone. If Frankie was the one person Jinafire could ever truly love then there would be nothing that anyone could do to get in their way of being together. Jinafire would kill anyone who hurt Frankie, bring them back to life, then slowly burn them alive again…and no matter what anyone ever did to try and keep them apart it would not stay that way. They would end up together one way or another no matter what…it was just…the way things were.
"Okay my bandages are off now but my shirt got ripped in the process." Frankie said coming out of the dressing room and causing the three to look at her. Skelita's eyes widened, Clawdeen was glaring at Jinafire, and Jinafire?
Yeah she had nearly passed out from a nosebleed thanks to seeing Frankie topless with a size DD bust…
