Closed Starter: Dealing with the De Vil (Eira/Aziz)
Eira pursed her lips, stabbing at her food. At least, that's what the school was calling it. Still, it was better than anything they got on the Isle.
She looked up as someone stood in front of her table. The "princess" gave a smile. Maybe he could offer her something.
"Yes?"

Genevieve Labrador Part 3
Summary: Evie and Mal are looking for Mal's spell book that Celia has stolen again when a certain mishap occurs... A hairy mishap that Mal and Evie very unfortunately have to deal with. Bal, Huma, Jaudrey, Jarlos, and Core Four feels with a special emphasis on Evie and Mal's sisterly/best friend relationship.
  Mal and Evie walked through one of the lower levels of the castle where Mal had arranged a living space for everyone in her so beloved squad. Even Evie, who had her own starter castle, had a room there where her and Mal sometimes spent several nights together in reminiscence of their times in school.
  Mal knew that Carlos would be in his room there because school hours had ended, and he usually came home soon after that so he could grab something to eat.
  They soon reached the de Vil boy’s door and Mal knocked on the door.
  “Yo, Lil’ C? You home?” Mal called, and she soon received a response from the other boy.
  “Yeah, come in,” Carlos instructed, and Mal let out a breath before opening the door, letting Evie in before entering herself.
  They both quickly spotted the other boy lounged on the couch and chomping on chips as he played some video game that looked like some sort of ninja roleplay. Dude was resting on the couch nearby him, keeping a close eye out for any crumbs that might fall.
  “Good grief, Mal, you should know you can just walk in. I mean, dang,” Carlos told her, and Evie’s ears pricked up as she homed in on the white-haired boy on the sofa.
  Before Mal could say anything to the boy in warning about what he was going to see when he removed his focus from his game, Evie went bounding away from Mal’s side and leapt over the side of the couch, landing right on Carlos as she proceeded to lick his face.
  “WOAH! What the heck?!” Carlos cried, trying to keep from laughing as the dog’s tongue covered his face in slobbery, wet kisses. Mal hurried over, grabbing Evie’s shoulders and trying to pull her off of the boy.
  “Woah, ho, ho, who’s this?” Carlos questioned with a laugh, reaching over and rubbing Evie’s ears as she licked her lips.
  “Mmm, potato chips are my favorite. They’re so salty and good,” Evie announced before realizing in horror what she had done to Carlos. The boy’s eyes went wide, and his jaw fell slack as he gaped at Evie in her dog form. Mal sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose with a hand as Carlos stared.
  “Evie found my spell book, read one of the spells, and accidentally turned herself into a dog,” Mal explained, and Carlos’ gaze shifted up to Mal before returning to Evie carefully. After a few moments, he nodded, but then got an extremely disgusted look on his face.
  “You mean Evie just licked my face?! EW!” Carlos swiftly brought his sleeves up and wiped at his face furiously. Mal shut her eyes, trying to resist the urge to laugh at the boy but at the same time sympathizing with him deeply.
  “I am so sorry, Snowflake, I don’t know what came over me!” Evie immediately apologized, valiantly attempting to keep her eyes on Carlos’ face instead of the chip bag that was right there in front of her.
   Mal noticed that Evie was actually starting to drool as she eyed the potato chips, so she picked up the bag and threw them onto the nearby counter.
  “Hey!” Carlos and Evie both complained at the same time, and Mal rolled her eyes at them.
  “She’s been getting dog urges with this new dog form, so I thought it’d be best to try to avoid another disaster like attacking you with her tongue,” Mal explained her actions and Carlos nodded to her before studying Evie carefully.
  “So, you’re really a dog, huh? With dog urges and everything?” Carlos asked. Evie nodded, throwing one final longing glance at the bag on the counter before paying full attention to the boy before her.
  “Well, as long as you don’t go licking your butt or anything, we’ll be good,” Carlos joked and Mal couldn’t help but laugh since she had said that exact same statement to Evie just a little earlier.
  “But seriously, I gotta say, you make a really pretty charcoal Labrador Retriever,” Carlos complimented with a smile and Evie’s tail started to wag at lightning speed, hitting Mal’s leg repeatedly.
  “Wait, I’m an actual breed of dog?! M, did you hear that? That is so reassuring. I was so scared that I was a mutt,” Evie informed him with a sigh of relief as she looked up at Mal, very pleased with herself.
  “There’s nothing wrong with a mutt!” Dude suddenly declared, much closer to Evie than she had anticipated, and Evie stumbled back a bit in surprise as her body ran into Mal’s leg firmly.
  “Hi. I like you a lot better in dog form,” Dude told her in a really awkward and sincere manner, and Evie offered a small smile, trying to resist the urge to tuck tail and hide behind Mal. However, she did move away just a bit.
  Mal shook her head at the two dogs, and she looked to Carlos.
  “Okay, so we need you to keep an eye out for my spell book at the school. I can change her back as soon as we get access to the book.”
  “I thought you memorized most of the spells in it before you gave it up.”
  “That’s just it: most of the spells, not all of them,” Mal replied, sighing as considered the great possibilities of things that could have happened to the magical book.
  “I’ll keep an eye out for it,” Carlos assured her, and Mal looked at him, smiling gratefully.
  “Hey! Stop doing that!” Evie suddenly cried, and the two human VKs turned their gazes to the dogs on the floor. Dude was standing just behind Evie, and she hurried away, her tail tucked between her legs firmly.
  “What’s the big deal? It’s just saying hello!” Dude announced before hurrying over to Evie and commencing to try to sniff her behind again. Evie’s ear laid back and she took off running through the house, Dude hot on her heels.
  “That’s just not right!” Evie announced as she hurried around the couch and toward the kitchen. At the last minute, she veered off into the bedroom, jumping on top of the bed and then hopping off the other side.
  Dude never stopped the whole time and he remained close behind her.
  “C’mon! I’ll let you sniff mine!”
  “That is disgusting! You are a bad dog! Bad dog!” Evie told him sternly as she rushed into Mal. The faerie grabbed Evie firmly in her arms, trying to keep her still. Dude’s ears quickly drooped, and he hopped into Carlos’ lap.
  “She used the b-word,” Dude whined, and Carlos scratched between his ears gently.
  “I know, bud.”
  “He tried to sniff my butt,” Evie whined to Mal, and she stroked Evie’s head carefully as she resisted the overwhelming urge to laugh at her best friend.
  “Why don’t you sniff his?” Mal asked her, unable to keep the laugh out of her voice, and Evie looked at her as if she had completely lost her mind.
  “That is just absolutely uncouth!” Evie cried. Mal shook her head, opening her mouth to say something else to Carlos before there was a knock at the door. Carlos angled his head so he could peer over the edge of the couch.
  “That’s probably Jane. Come in!” Carlos called, one arm thrown over the couch and another stroking Dude’s back.
  The door opened to reveal Jane, an easy smile on her face as she strolled through the door. Before she could even shut the door, Evie went running toward her, panting and wagging all over in her pure happiness to see one of her friends.
  However, Jane did not react with nearly the same enthusiasm that Evie had, and she instead went quite pale as she took off out the door screaming, Evie following her quickly. Mal and Carlos looked at each other before hurrying after the two.
  “No, no! I don’t taste good!” Jane helplessly cried, running from Evie in pure fear of the big dog.
  “Evie, stop!” Mal called firmly, hoping that the new dog side of her best friend would regain control of itself.
  Sure enough, to her relief, Evie stopped quickly, digging her feet into the rug running down the hallway. Evie looked back at Mal with a puzzled expression, her head tilted adorably as she tried to understand why she had started chasing the other girl.
  “Jane, wait! The dog’s Evie!” Carlos yelled, and Jane came to a stop quickly, slowly turning toward Carlos as she registered what he had said.
  “Evie? That really big, really ferocious dog that just tried to eat me whole is Evie?” Jane tentatively questioned and Carlos nodded.
  “I didn’t mean to scare you, Jane. These dog urges are a bit too much sometimes,” Evie apologetically explained and Jane came back to the group hesitantly. She looked at Carlos questioningly, and he nodded to cue her that it was safe to look at the dog closer. Jane leaned down to look at Evie, carefully examining her.
  “Wow, this is really Evie? She’s a dog?”
  “Yeah, I’m a dog. Although, I really wish that you’d stop calling me that. It’s kind of traumatizing,” Evie gently requested, and Jane sympathetically eyed the girl.
  “Who knows about this?” Jane asked, looking up at the faerie nearby her.
  “So far, it’s just me, you, and Carlos,” Mal informed her.
  “And us,” a voice suddenly piped up, and Mal turned around to see Uma, Harry, and Gil standing not too far behind her.
  Evie panted happily upon seeing them, and she wagged her tail as she approached them, her dog mode of greeting overtaking her. Uma raised an eyebrow as she looked at Mal with a slight grin. Gil leaned down and started to scratch her neck, not really understanding that he was dealing with his crush instead of a normal dog.
  “This is really crazy. How did it happen?” Uma finally asked Mal.
  “Evie got the spell book and accidentally turned herself into a dog.” Uma quietly considered this for a moment before chuckling in response.
  “What’s so funny?” Mal demanded, too absorbed in what was happening to really consider it from any other viewpoint.
  “Look at it this way. Your best friend is currently turned into a dog as a result of her own doings. It’s really not harmful at all, and she does a ton of embarrassing things. How are you not finding this funny?” Uma questioned, before her eyes shifted to Gil who was currently getting far too much enjoyment from petting the dog that was really not a dog.
  “Gil, stop petting her. She’s not a dog,” Uma finally commanded her crewmate, and he stood up disappointedly before Evie’s eyes widened as she realized what she had done. She quickly returned to Mal’s side, somewhat ashamed of herself.
  Mal moved her head in an agreeing gesture, realizing that it was actually pretty humorous.
  “Yeah, see what I mean?” Uma pointed out as Mal started to giggle about the whole situation. Evie looked between the both of them, gazing at Mal with an unimpressed expression and eyeing Uma with a disappointed acceptance. However, her thoughts were immediately disrupted as her stomach growled rather loudly.
  “I’m really hungry,” Evie suddenly piped up, and Mal pulled herself together as she shrugged.
  “Okay, let’s go grab you a snack from the fridge. Feel like some lasagna?” Mal offered, and Evie’s mouth immediately started to drool at the thought of food. Carlos raised an eyebrow at Evie’s weird dog behavior and quickly interjected.
  “Actually, human food is usually not good for dogs.”
  “I’m not eating dog food,” Evie swiftly informed him, staring at the boy with a firm expression.
  “Whooped and she’s not even yer girlfriend,” Harry suddenly proclaimed offhandedly with an evil smile. Carlos completely ignored the other boy and held a hand up in a placating gesture toward Evie, indicating that she should hear him out.
  “Yes, and I knew you wouldn’t go for that, so I was going to offer some of my best recipes for Dude that involve dog-friendly human food,” Carlos announced proudly grinning at Jane who had found her way nearby him as soon as the son of Hook had appeared.
  “Trust me, you don’t want to eat them. You’ll be begging for Canine Crunchies before he’s through with that bland human food,” Dude suddenly trotted up, expressing his distaste.
  “Hey! They aren’t that bad…”
  “I’m sorry. I’m spelled to tell the truth, what can I say? Plus, I’m an honest kind of dog.”
  “Even yer dog can burn ye! Get some ice-cold water!” Harry pointed his hook at the other boy with a wicked laugh, fully amused with his own mischief. Jane pursed her lips in an angry pout as she eyed the pirate boy with some frustration at his antagonistic attitude toward her boyfriend.
  “If you don’t want to try out mine, you could go to the pet store. You’d have the opportunity to talk to the employees to find out about all of the best kinds of organic recipes for dogs,” Carlos informed them, but not before throwing a disdainful look in Harry’s direction. “I know this old lady there and she is a super big help with things like that.”
  “Hey, and you might could get her some other stuff like a leash and a collar to reel that puppy in,” Uma suggested, and Evie’s eyes went wide as she looked up at Uma with some offense. Mal snorted at Uma’s statement, but she nodded.
  “That’s probably not a bad idea,” Mal agreed finally. “However, we do need somebody to go to the supermarket and pick up some food.”
  Uma nodded, looking back at Harry and Gil just behind her.
  “Okay, you guys go do the grocery-getting and we’ll call with the list when we find out from the old lady. Just don’t cause any trouble, okay?” Uma pointedly stared at Harry. Harry stared at her with wide eyes, portraying complete innocence.
  “Do ye really think that I would do anything-” Uma just glared at him and Harry shook his head with a grunt. “Yeah, I’d probably do somethin’.”
  Uma rolled her eyes and then she pointed at Gil.
  “Listen to Harry. You guys can’t keep getting kicked out of stores and getting tickets because some of us drive too fast,” Uma directed that last comment at particularly Harry. Harry and Gil both nodded, the former with significantly less enthusiasm.
  Uma moved her head in agreement as well, taking Harry’s arm before she left and leaning into him quickly. He eagerly closed the distance, before she pulled away after a few moments, a slight smile on her face in spite of herself. Gil’s lips had curled into an enormous grin and he was excitedly eyeing his captain.
  “Can I get a kiss, too?!” Gil asked, and Uma was immediately reminded of a small child. However, as innocent as he likely intended the question, Uma really couldn’t let him get away with saying something like that in case he said it to someone who might take him seriously.
  “We’ve talked about this. Me and Harry are together. You and I ain’t together, so it ain’t happening,” Uma informed him shortly. However, she did affectionately clap him on the shoulder before turning to join the other two girls.
  “Let’s go,” Mal told her, and they headed for the pet store, Evie padding along on the floor alongside them.
