From the floor slowly floats up a ghostly figure, she at first seems curious at what's going on, then increasingly nervous as she sees the people around. Haunted ends up just floating in a more or less circle around the little group of people that seems to have gathered, watching them converse for now.

Sheesh, she didn't even notice Xue? She must have really been wrapped up. She actually blushed a little, hearing someone approach her from behind.
A mutual defense pact, right? Oh, well... she could do that. She nodded to her, and told her "Yes, I would. But just for the record, I'm tough, so don't think I'm going to be calling for help often, if at all." she told her. It was nothing personal, but she wasn't going to let anyone think she was weak and in-need of protection. She was well-trained by her father, and had learned a lot on her own as well; apart from her pride, she was still trying to establish that tough girl rep of her's.

Challenge completed.
Xue Fang gives a nod in return. "It isn't about problems you cannot complete, but those that are a bit tough at a given situation. One's trials exist to propel them forward." Not to get into her own. With that she looks over to the dryad Greta. "I imagine this completes your challenge?"

Currently unoccupied with the current ongoings, she notices the ghost girl that suddenly... appears from right under the floor!
"Oh that's... stereotypical. A ghost is..."
She pauses a bit, from all the species she has heard, that one was definately a new one, and surprised her all the more
"Well, that's... 'new'. Where did I left my manners... Greetings! I'm Robin, and who are you if I may ask ?"
She asks Haunted, complying to the request of the professor to Socialize.

The professor, meanwhile, sighs. "That...did not go nearly as expected." She looks up, seeing Haunted, and blinks. "...Huh. So that explains why the place was so cheap..."

Haunted stares at Robin, and her random path leads her to start floating around her. She speaks quietly, like a whisper, and slowly, trailing off often. "Hello....some call me...Ichigo...what's going on...here?"

Normally, Nikki would have been startled by a ghost. But she was in the room with a bunch of 'fantasy species', with herself relatively newly included in that category, as well as a cyborg and a robot for good measure. A ghost, at this point, was interesting, but not exactly amazing. She gave a smile to Haunted, and told her "Name's Nikki; how're doing?" Okay, being dead wasn't exactly the best of circumstances. Hopefully, Haunted wasn't freshly dead; she didn't exactly know how someone mourning their own death would react.

Ghost.
That wouldn't mix well with electronics.
Or punching.
Xue couldn't punch ghosts. Well. Maybe. If she dipped her hand in salt? Or had wrought iron knuckles? More importantly, she won the challenge. Time for another dip of water. Xue Fang enjoys her victory water and then looks back around the others. So. College. Public schools. Community. Whatever. This was going to be an experience. "So." She looks over again and eventually finding the ghost the most interesting subject at the moment. Then again... dryad. "So Miss Greta, wasn't it?" She says and turns back to the challenger. "What is this location for?"

Greta sighs to herself, and rubs her forehead. There was a reason she never had kids. Many of them, with this being one. "This area is meant to be ahome base for members of the club. Somewhere where they are safe, somewhere they can rely upon. It is, for all intents and purposes, a home base. Somewhere you can always come back to. And, I suppose that leads to my next topic, which I can help you all with later. Figuring out a personal home base. You likely all have your own facilities you can use, and taking stock of them can be good for getting used to things."

"Yeah I have a place." She says and looks to the facility, sizing it up a bit more. "Its got a ceiling and a few walls. Kinda like this place." She says. There's not sarcasm in her voice, just more... likening her personal facility to an impromptu club made out of a warehouse. "So... this is a home ... 'base'..." She says with a tilt of her head. "Neat phrase."

Greta nods. "Yes. Perhaps, when some of you are done here, you can show off your own facilities to others?"
(Remember those facilities you got? Well, you can make them as threads, and as places for the characters to retreat too!)

"While you have stated this place is... safe..." She says with a pause to the word, "I cannot be certain as to others. There are a few that may have disagreements with me."

Greta raises an eyebrow. "Have you tried...the buddy system?"

Xue Fang doesn't have much of a poker face, but the question does bother her. "It is a family matter." There.. that would... be a nicer way of saying it. Better to seem cold perhaps than worried someone else would get hurt over the conflict.

Nikki overhears Xue and Greta talking, and tries to put pieces together. Here's what she knows.
1. She established a mutual defense pact with her.
2. She mentioned a 'family issue'
3. Mention of a need for a safe place.
At worst, this was a matter of an abusive family, in the normal sense. In which case, if Nikki put her well-honed ability to scare people into running away with their tail between her legs, she could probably fix it. Most people don't interact with others through a mutual defense pact. This was very suspicious.
Nikki approached Xue "We already have a pact, remember? So I'm duly honor-bound to beat the crap out of any jerks trying to beat the crap out of you."
